AlimOzturk Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 It is shite if that is truly the end. I think we can safely say from the season finale that the story will continue and I reckon it will be movies rather than a new TV series (more money to be made) A new prequel about the Children of the forest ect will be made.

The episode where Orlenna dies. I’m a bit annoyed that Arya is off to find out what is west of Westeros. Great, dangle that question in the series finale. Yet more lazy writing from them, the Lannisters defeated the Tyrell forces at Highgarden so that translates to there being no one, not even common folk, in the Reach, yet Northmen, Lannisters, Iron Born, Unsullied and Dothraki appear to survive any meaningful dilution of their numbers after battle

indianajones Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Interesting fan take on what happened in the years after the finale. Better story telling than the last season tbh. https://www.reddit.com/r/gameofthrones/comments/bqvnol/spoilers_epilogue_after_the_wheel/

benny Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 2 hours ago, gjcc said: The reach is populated but it’s an extensive and fertile region. But there are now houses there without Lords. Highgarden was one of them, but I’m sure Bronn would be ever so slightly miffed. A potential home would be the ancestral home of house Tarly. Given Samwell is grandmaester I doubt he’s much interest in being a lord. That said the unsullied could easily set up their own home. Arya has previously said she wanted to do a Columbus, so it’s no surprise she did in the end. The ending seems purposefully full of potential spin offs. That's what I thought with Arya. Could well be a spin off. Thought the ending was good apart from Grey Worm character accepting every decision made.
hughesie27 Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Was pretty annoyed when it was obvious Bran was getting it bit actually didn't mind in the end. Injust wish they had given him some actual lines before this episode. Also, what happened to him not wanting to be called Bran? Seems happy enough with it now!
The Gorgie Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Thought it was pretty poor tbh, however although the claim it to be the last ever episode they have left it open to be continued. Didn't understand sending jon back to the nights watch. There is no enemy beyond the wall anymore so the nights watch isn't needed, feck knows maybe i picked it up all wrong.

Peebo Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Like most great HBO shows, the last episode felt a bit crap and unsatisfying in some ways. But I’m unsure how else it could have ended. The more I think about it, the more fitting it feels. Overall, an absolutely amazing programme. I actually feel a wee bit sad, as it has felt like a constant part of what has been the most significant period of my life, ever since I saw the first trailer on HBO just after my now-wife had moved in with me in late-2010.

vegas-voss Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 So did Bran know all along he was going to be King ? That was shit would rather have had Dany just kill them all than that.

Bronne was one of my favs throughout but they made an arse of him in season 8.

Why did the Night King make him his top target?. Thought there might be more twists and turns to be honest before the Dragon Queen bought it. If she did!!!
Bozi Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 I can't believe the Imp ate the dragon and then killed denerys and John with a flaming fart.... Raging likes

OTT Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 That was so ****ing shit. Shocking writers that absolutely butchered a series which should have been in the same bracket as the Sopranos, Breaking Bad etc. Hope their next shite is a hedgehog. Arseholes. *****. (Spoilers)
Ritchez Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 So to sum up the regions and who controls them: The North (as an independent kingdom) - House Stark, led by Sansa as queen. IronIslands - House Greyjoy, led by Yara Riverlands- House Tully, led by Edmure Tully. The Vale - House Arryn, led by Robin Arryn and supported by House Royce. Westerlands - Unknown, possibly Tyrion as last surviving Lanister. Guessing he inherits Casterly Rock. The Crownlands - Brann as king The Reach - Bronn. The Stormlands - House Barathion, led by Gendry Barathion. Dorne - Dornish Prince Dude By my count this is 9 kingdoms, but the show constantly referred to 7. Am I right in saying that the Iron Islands and possibly The Crownlands aren't classed as kingdoms?

But it got split in to the Isles and the Rivers, which meant the Riverlands were eventually ruled by House Tully and I believe the Greyjoys came under that. The Crownlands aren’t a kingdom.
scott herbertson Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Bran has shown absolutely nothing to suggest he would be a good king ne chance they'd choose him if they are a politically scheming bunch of lords and ladies, nae chance at all

Alan_R Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Spoiler Just thought are we expected to think Jon just said oh aye btw I stabbed the queen? the dragon just roasted a city couldn't he just have claimed it went a bit mental killing or swooping away with danerys Also I don't no why I'm still using spoiler tabs as we seem to just be assuming all in this thread have now viewed?

As another poster said above no evidence he will make a good job of it, infact the opposite as he's got 1000s killed as well as those closest to him. Then gets all smug telling Jon how he was in the right place all along... Except Jon died and lost who he loved most and finally ended up ostracised. Aye cheers bran ya wee p****
Alan_R Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Spoiler What I will say though is I think if was meant to be a somewhat anti climatic ending. Not read the books bit I imagine GRR will do it more justice. Despite "breaking the wheel" westeros has went full circle to what it was 1000 of years prior. Parallels with bran the builder, all the houses and seats are occupied just with different folk , dragon fly's the skies in valayria, wild folk past the wall and the north is its own kingdom... It was disappointing for many but more I think about it was quite typically GoT in the sense it's went full circle almost to say nothing really changes. Ending
superjack Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 So how long will Bran sit on the throne? Pretty sure the previous 3 eyed raven lived for quite a while, a good few hundred at least.

Yep 7 kingdoms but 9 administrative regions; iron islands came within riverlands... kings landing, Dragonstone and crown lands didn’t exist as a separate entity when there was 7 Kingdoms
hughesie27 Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Looked like Arya toona few Stark men with her on her travels. Surely the best chance of a spin-off show.

Possibly but far more likely we will see a spin off prequel series, either about Roberts rebellion or set years previously in a different part of westeros. Martin has churned out loads of 'westorosi history' for them to delve into if they want to.
