i feel like this is some true detective fuckery. how they set up all this weird intrigue and backstory of symbolism and motives and cult shit and just weird strange shit and then in the end its like woody harrelson and the lincoln commercial guy kill him and everyone is like uhh. so what did all that shit MEANN THO
WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN THO
GOD DAMN GEORGE RR MARTIN TO HELL
WE ALL KNOW HE AIN'T GONNA LIVE ANOTHER 30 YEARS AND FINISH THE BOOKS

I dont think what they wanted was ever the point. They wanted death. They are death.
That shit was phenomenal and i actually cared about reek so fuck off, that death was tough. I thought it was all over, literally no chance. The show has been programming our heads to think that no saving grace ever occurs in westeros.
They used the old trick of bringing the protagonist to the very end, but he is always saved, after using the opposite throughout the entire series.
Thats what made Ned's death so impactful, the fact that we were all still thinking, as hes about to get sent to the wall, oh hes fine hes got plot armor. Then no head. Same with the Red Wedding, they actually do it multiple times with separate characters in the same scene.
Who can really say they thought anyone was about to live? I thought Sam died 4 times, that final scene where Jaime and co get surrounded.
Its a curveball in THIS show when Arya flies through the air, AND THEN THEY EVEN MAKE YOU THINK SHE IS ABOUT DIE, when he catches her.
I agree that maybe a couple more deaths (i predicted 10) but hot damn what a fucking experience
Also yeah Euron was a total badass in the books, maybe he will show some cool shit in the battle to come
Plus that fucking Arya Clancy scene was dope af sneaking around and shit twas like a video game. A lot of that episode reminded me of a video game.
I dont think they killed the first zombie dragon (Vis) he just fell out of the sky
But they never showed Rhae so who knows, i thought Drogon was a goner
