re: **Spoilers**Anyone wanna talk about EP4-6 leaks from the other subs?

r/freefolk

They're posting em there

Can you link it because I don’t see a single thread about leaks.

Bran being King would be melt worthy

Great synopsis above me, R.I.P. Rhaegal, you fly too close to the sun, and will be missed... since Qyburn is an up and coming defensw contractor and has created tomahawk missiles with pinpoint accuracy launched from unseen distances

The whole Night King storyline was useless. It was completely pointless.

If this is what we get after 8 years I'm just gonna ask the Mountain to behead me too.

The Missandei part happened today

What was useless about it? You serious?


It literally was set up to be the end game with Jon and Bran and Dany and her dragons being major players, pretty much played into that the entire series with Hardhome, the entire 3ER arc, Melisandre’s entire arc, the entire point of Dany coming North.

And what exactly happens? A convenient way for D&D to level the playing field. Jon and Dany literally fly around for most of the episode in darkness while Bran just sits there, after the NK marks him (we don’t even really know why) and is basically useless. Basically the only point of him becoming the 3ER was to tell Jon that he was Aegon. Then, a character with no ties to the NK at all, leaps out of nowhere and stabs him, basically just for shock value. It was M Night levels of bad of a “twist”

The writers are trying to tie things up as quickly as possible and what’s happening is the writers are having so many characters acting out of character. Master diplomat Tyrion saying Brienne was a virgin in front of a group of men, friend Bronn threatening to kill Tyrion and Jaime, stable Gendry asking Arya to marry him, logical Sansa taunting Jaime about wanting to be there when Cersei gets killed, stoic Brienne crying and begging Jaime to stay, redeemed Jaime flipping back to being evil after he realizes he really loves Cersei, etc. The writers are trying to fit so many square pegs into round holes in a race to manufacture an ending.

They haven't done the work to make the endgame they are heading toward and are forcing it so hard.

I'm with you.

I am Saying it wasn’t pointless

The good guys just won and people seem to have a real issue with it.

They set up that 1. If they don’t defeat him there Westeros is fricked. 2. Every last scrap of all the resources that can kill the NK are there. All the dragonglass, all the Valyrian steel is there. All the dragons in existence are there.

We’ve set up the stakes that everyone on the planet should care about killing the NK, and that the NK can find Bran because of the marking (which is also how the NK got into the 3ER’s tree sonits alwready been given a significant purpose.

We know that the 3ER can see the past and the NK wants to while away all memory of humanity, so Bran becomes really the only bait the NK night expose himself to kill.

So in the end, Arya kills him. And if you are a little disappointed it was Jon, me too. I tjinknyou Can complain about episode 3, but people saying it ruins the show need to think for a second.
