DuhI don’t even believe that the Starbucks thing is an accident, but a viral ad.

This article articulates most of my thoughts to a tee.
She should have. You know you're going to die. The second she is close enough to whisper in your ear you grab her and jump, pull her down with you. But that would make too much sense and we wouldn't get the dramatic "drakaris", and we can't break our trend of terrible writing and terrible choices by previously intelligent characters. We gotta trope our way to the endI was really hoping the translator women was going to grab cersei and jump off the edge of the castle with her.
Basically nothing happened.Geez this show was one of the best things ever happened in its first season and now it’s being killed with turrible writing. I didn’t even watch the last episode but I’m in no rush after reading the comments.
Yeah man. I mean I remember the moment Ned calls out for Mountain. What happened to those insane atmosphere build up techniques? Didn’t the writers grab any gosh darn method at all from previous experiences? Don’t you have any pride and respect on the material you put out? That was what made Game of Thrones special. Ned was even better than the book Eddard. I’d prefer they never even show the darn wights at all instead of this poopsy.Basically nothing happened.
Well said. I didn't feel anything when the first dragon was killed either because I was stuck on "ok so this guy runs back to the wall, they send a Raven, Dany gets on the dragons and flies up here....all in about a day and a half? Umm...ok"So when the books are finished and we have a proper ending and all the pieces make sense leading up to it are they going to have to make another GoT?
This thing was being done right season 1. Season 2 was still pretty solid. By season 3 they started to diverge and all the ways they diverged made the show less good.
I get a little confused as far as how TV show seasons and books line up, but when they decided to take books 4 and 5 and condense that into a single TV season (basically) I thinks that's when things went into a nosedive. Books 4 and 5 could have been made into 3 TV seasons. Maybe they were worried that the actors wouldn't stick around for a 10-12 season show, or they'd grow up too much or whatever. I don't know, but had they actually used books 4 and 5 instead of making a sub-par condensed version of them then I think book 6 might have come out in time for them to use it. They'd still almost certainly be on their own for the ending, but there would be fewer holes leading up to it.
People cried when Rob got killed. They were SHOCKED. It was a gut punch.
Did any of you cry or feel shocked or gut punched when the dragon died in episode 4? I didn't. It was like, oh hey is that dragon really dead, hum. That escalated quickly. Sucks for Danny I guess.
Yeah, totally agree that the first dragon dying didn't really get me, either.Well said.

Not that it's necessarily the "good material" from the books per se, but not incorporating the (Fake)aegon storyline is hurting the show as well. There are entire swaths of the continent completely ignored in the show now, and as a result the world feels small and empty especially compared to how it felt in the beginning of the series.Yeah the resurrected catlyn from the books was completely absent. I'm shocked how much of the really good material they just left out.
