#bringbackwinter

So I was beyond hyped for this episode and while the visuals were amazing....other things weren’t so great.

Things have become so predictable after Melisandre jumped in with the brown eyes, green eye *dramatic pause* blue eyes talk. I was like, okay Arya kills the Night King for sure....but...it was quite anticlimactic?? Or is it just me? Cuz she just jumped in and stabbed him and bamm boom he’s dead.

I don’t have a problem with her killing him, don’t get me wrong, but don’t tell me, that the Night King, who was planning this shit for god knows how long, killed a fu*king dragon and brought it back, will be just offed with a - quite forseeable - stab?? So yeah, it was a letdown.

People were dying, but...i didn’t really feel any of them were necessary, they were just there for shock effect? Which is not even a thing in Game of Thrones anymore, because people dying in this show is expected! Theon was basically killed because his story line was pretty much over, he came back to Winterfell, proved he was a “good man” (aka Bran basically telling him he did good now he can die peace out) and he died. Jorah’s death was...eh. I don’t even remember who else died, Melisandre at the end, who started the episode by saying she’ll die anyway, so who’s going to be surprised by that? And that was the closing scene for the episode...disappointed sorry not sorry. 

Edd died saving Sams’ ass and let me just talk about that for a bit. Sam was out there simply to see shit (my theory is that Sam is the narrator, he definitely stays alive), he was utterly useless, caused Edd to die, had to have at least a few people save his sorry ass from dying. And i’m just annoyed at how predictable this shit is. The crypt thing too. Oooh who would’ve thought that dead people will rise and that includes the ones in the crypt. Like come on...

And now we’ll have 3 episodes of drama and political bullshit because the whole “winter is coming, winter is here” (and in my opinion the most interesting) plotline with the Night King and his army - that was there in *every season* -  was finished off in one long-ass episode. An episode that consists of at least 50 minutes of “I can’t see shit what the fuck is going on” pitch black dark scenes. I didn’t mind the fighting, it was just all over the place.

Quite frankly, GOT was really good up until season 5 (or 4, I can’t remember) then it just became plain, flat, simple. I’m only watching this season, cuz I’ve already watched the other 7 (plus i was hoping they’d go out with a bang and this season would be epic, guess i was wrong about that). I don’t care  about the Iron Throne, or Cersei, or the shitty elephants, Euron is a boring character too.
