HBB1:
So not even 1 ballista could hit the dragon.
Ok o!

didn't u see those swift moves by drogon, its like the dragon go training for the battle.

vizkiz:
I think she'd try to take Danny out but will be captured. Maybe that is when Jon will be forced to do something about the mad queen...

As it seems, Arya is on a mission

oshe! arya was totally pissed off,seeing how innocent people were burnt and scampering for their lives,even Jon snow episode6 will not go well with either side starks vs targerian.

Ksslib:

Jon did.

When you dey nah? Can't wait for your mad lines on the latest episode....they sha had to make us dislike Dany so that when they eventually kill her, we her fans wont feel bad abi?....no wahala Sha, I was prepared for her death from last episode....abeg come drop those mad lines jor

djeezy:
My assessment.

I think it's a great episode. I was impressed on how Danny learnt to maneuver the scorpion and how she laid waste to Euron' s iron fleet and the golden company. However she did not observe the rules of war relating to belligerent combatants and civilians. In War, once your enemy surrenders, they become prisoners of war. You don't kill an unarmed man. The Lannister army surrendered and yet they were all slaughtered. Kings Landing was easy for the taking and as such, they shouldn't have killed women and children, especially for someone like Danny whose message has always been to liberate people against tyrant rule. Can you imagine the hypocrisy of that?

If you argue that all Danny did was as a result of so much she has lost, can you then justify the actions of Cersei who became cruel after she lost her children?

I do not think Danny killed innocent people and burnt them because of Missandei' s death or loss of her dragons. She had always complained and whined about how people from King' s landing and North do not like her. When the Lannister army surrendered and stood down. SHE WAS PISSED AT HOW LONG IT TOOK THEM TO RING THE BELL OF SURRENDER, WHICH MADE HER MAD TO THINK THAT THE PEOPLE WILL NEVER SUPPORT HER. WHAT TRIGGERED HER WAS THAT LITTLE TIME BEFORE THE BELL WAS RUNG.

Power intoxicates and absolute power corrupts absolutely and that was her Achilles heels. I'm not the writer of the show but even a blind man knows ain't no way she's ever gonna rule well or be accepted after all the atrocities she has committed.


SO OFF WITH HER HEAD AND PLACE IT ON A SPIKE.

well said bro! on point.

remember the faceless god

arya may not be caught

You are talking to someone who dumped the following series.

Vikings (season 1)
Empire (Season 3)
Power (Season 2)
Agents of Shield (Season 1)
Lucifer (Season 2)
and many more.


The selling point of GOT is the unpredictability.
Even Jon Snow can die in the season finale.

it's too early this morning to start and it's been long I had a batter with anyone,biko don't wake the sleeping giant!!
All movies and TV series are allowed to be criticized and GOT is not an exception. though it's there show but when you think there's is something wrong or missing in a show anybody is free to express his/her dissatisfaction, hence movie critics! everybody is entitled to his/her own opinion! if you are not satisfied then counter with logical points !! people like you are the ones who watch every show and accepts every dick and Harry they portray without rasing an eye brow!

shogz89:
I bet many of us would have killed the mad king if we were in jaime's shoe.. Why will someone tell me to kill my father and burn all inhabitant of a city. Jaime killed one to save about 500,000 people in kings landing. I will break my oath if it comes to saving humanity at the expense of a truly mad king.. The only fault I find in Jaime is the incest with cersie every other act of his in the series have been noble.

While we understand why Jaime did it, he was only pardoned because Robert forgave anyone who supported the previous monarch.

,

HBB1:


In real life, if dragons existed , one of those ballistas would have hit. Those ships were quite many and she destroyed them all like that?!
Not to talk of those on the wall.
When you can just shoot a cluster in her direction as she was diving like Nigerian Airforce-- One must hit.
Same way she evaded 'all' of them when Rhaegal was shot down!
Shouldn't have been that easy.
But what would I say, its TV and should be enjoyed, I will pick up my brain again when I go for Logic 101 classes.

Hahahaha... You are right. But the ones on the wall were not mounted by anyone!

Dany kills Jon Snow

Arya kills Dany

End of GOT

afolwalex20:
Episode 5 is trash! In fact, this season 8 is nonsense! They want to make it unpredictable, thereby making mistakes and giving us unnecessary scenes. They are swaying away from the actual story and giving what most of the fans wants. It's obvious a large percentage of fans wants John to rule, so there was no better way to make us hate Dany than making her mad.

She couldn't burn the ship housing the weapon that killed her second dragon in episode 4, but she destroyed a lot more in this episode. Nonsense writing there. She loved her dragons more than anything; watching one die should have given her the rage she needed to destroy Euron's fleet.

I'm surprised people are justifying her actions. They want us to hate her. If you still support Dany, then GOT has done a terrible job. She won the war already for heaven's sake. Burning the whole city was unnecessary. Yet, someone said it's war and she was angry. Missandei and her dragons' deaths weren't the cause of her actions. She wanted to ignite fear since she found out the people won't love her. Well, she succeeded by creating more enemies. John's love for her might fade and Arya is now pissed - she almost died.

Taking about Arya, how on earth did she survived? Oh! The stupid prophesy about shutting brown and green eyes will be the dragon's and/or Dany's ba? I believe they will tell us the gods protected her and kept her alive for a reason. Thousands, if not everyone died in the city, but Arya and that horse wore dragonproof.

Trash! Trash! Trash!
Very poor writing!

Euron and Jamie's fight was unnecessary. I'm not sure if he was the only one that survived the destruction of his fleet, but who would survive fire and dive straight into it minutes later? He should have fled since he knew the battle was lost, but no! He was going back to the Red Keep when he saw Jamie. The mumu na wanted to fight. That scene is so dumb!

Make I dey go before I vex...

hahahaha! u forgot to add the most annoying part ,his last words "I am the man who killed Jamie lannister". what nonsense!

I don't understand your wildfire argument

lilbest4:
she had wild fire. Didn't you see the green flames that were exploding? Cersei had wildfire she burned her enemies and left the peasants even after they spat at her. What wrong did they do to the white headed wh0re?
Cersei is the only female in that film that is truly worthy of power and maybe the little bear lady too

djeezy:

SO OFF WITH HER HEAD AND PLACE IT ON A SPIKE.

Dany burning the city is completely out of character for her.
This is a girl we watched grow up and free slaves.
The earliest significant memory I have of Dany was when she abolished raping captured women while Khal Drogo was still alive. . . .she saved that witch woman from being raped, an act that eventually cost her her womb, her child and her husband.
She killed the woman responsible.
She didn't kill the woman's people who were innocent.

Dany calls herself the breaker of chains, she's fred slaves in every town she touched down in Slaver's bay. Even renamed the city.
She stopped killing of innocent children.
She's Mysa. . . Aka mother.

She repeatedly asked the Tarlys to surrender before killing them.

The Lannisters willingly surrendered. The bell was rung.
What could she have possibly acheived by still burning down the city? ? ?
He beef is with Cersei not the people of Kings Landing

It was extremely out of character for her to do so especially when she has never showed a single trait of madness so far.
Never wonder why they kept going over how when a Targaryan is born the gods flip a coin. . .the lazy writers inserted that dialogue there to justify her going mad out of the blue.

From the middle of the episode, it didn't seem like I was watching game of thrones.

Nnaabros:
It was simply Dracarys!

Even Drogon is very angry. He has lost all his brothers. His fire level has increased. I didn't know he could pump out that much fire.

See the damage and destruction only one dragon executed. Imagine what three dragons would have done. She didn't even need all those armies she'd been recruiting. Guess she just wanted to secure their loyalty first sha.

She could have taken down kings landing right from the beginning with only her three dragons.

Greyworm's fury is just horrific. His face alone gave me shivers.

And Cercie. You chopped off a girls head in a public display. You wanted to kill everyone to save your ass, but when it's your turn you suddenly developed a SOUL and crying that ' I DONT WANT TO DIE'. You think those people you killed WANTED TO DIE?

Imagine how people suddenly become soulful and innocent looking when they are about to die!

And what a twist! Danny is now the new villain.

Quite an episode!

Cersei's death is hands down the most underwhelming villain death in history.
They made us pity her at the very end.



I have a dozen fan theories on her death than what they these writers gave us. And they're supposed to be "professional"

Never mind how they completely redeemed Jaime and made him go back to the very woman who sent an assassin to kill you, one episode ago.
I just can't. . .

Dany! Dany!! Dany!!! I ve hate her since season 1, when all she do is to gather army to take d iron throne. Damn! Manipulative. Too obsessive. Either all of u dany fans like it or not she has been destined for a terrible end from the beginning. While its okay to fight for something u believe in, do not become obsessed with it or lose urself to it. I pray she surrender to Jon Snow though. Thats the best ending she can get

Aystarz:

Ned didn't understand jackshit about why Jaime did what he did. He was a most honorable fool, remember? He judged the poor guy without giving him a chance to defend himself..


Brienne might be the only one in the realm who understands why Jaime killed Aerys.

Haha, here we go.

shogz89:
lol.. Who is he to hold a king captive.. Have you forgotten in the game of thrones you either win or die.. Mention one king that was held captive in the whole series..

He could have. Jaime himself admits he could have carried it out in a better way. He admits he was rash in making his decision.

echibuogwu:
yes he’s a hero but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t wrong, the mad king was defenseless, he could have capture him or injured him , instead he stabbed him in the back and slit his throat then sat down on the iron throne and watch him die. Jaime could have capture him for the rebellion, he had already stopped the guy that wanted to burn down the city, he had every opportunity to capture the mad king for Ned Stark but instead he killed the defenseless man. Let us not be bias, he deserved to be punished

There were more pyromancers. Jaime kills the remaining ones after Robert ascends the throne.

All of you saying Dany should give way to Jon snow


Could Jon take the 7 kingdoms on his own


Dany made everything possible, Jon can't come from nowhere and take it


Jon was brought back to get Dany pregnant


If Dany dies let their child rule, no problem, bitter Sweet ending but don't put Jon on that throne


Who knows self, maybe the kingdoms will split back to 7 different kingdoms like it was before aegon the conqueror came and United it


My own is Dany effort shouldn't be wasted, she made it all happen, she worked hard to get to where she is now and deserves something, worst let her child rule

Comanche:
;DDuring Cleaganebowl, Cersie was like 'I see it is a family issue, I'm just gonna sneak out and leave you to it...bye bitches'.








How would you rate Cleaganebowl?

imo it was epic and poetic

Aystarz:



You don't have to be a fighter to be conferred with knighthood. During Robert's rebellion, Stannis, who was holding Storm's End, the traditional home of the Baratheons, faced a difficult siege that lasted half a year or so. He recruited Davos to help smuggle onion and salt into Storm's End during this period; and well, the Onion Knight did his thing .

Davos, thereafter was knighted by Stannis for his commitment and loyalty.
But what good did that noble act bring him? He lost two fingers to Robert's brother for his trouble - smuggling crimes.

This is a common misconception - Stannis did not recruit Davos. Davos was all about providing for his family, so he thought that bringing food to a Castle under siege would bring him help. And it did, he became a Landed Knight, now his children can own lands, and will never go hungry, and he can hire a maester to teach them to read and write. Cutting off his fingers was payment for his past crimes.

YoungBlackRico:
Lol y'all should leave Danny alone. Cersei should be blamed for all of these, and that sissy niqqa called Jon.

John is a full blown püssy and doesn't deserve jack... You say you don't want the throne, yet you tell people you know will certainly raise questions about it.

Dany did well in destroying Kings Landing.

Benioff: So DB, how many prophesies do we put in GOT?
Weiss: A lot! We've got to keep this guys hooked. You know it's got to be eight seasons.
Benioff: Okay, so we've got Cercie not marrying the prince but marrying the king. We've got the lot about her children and how they die. We've also put in how she does at the hands of her younger brother... This is really juicy.
Weiss: Don't forget the bit about Azzora Hai. That sh*t has got to be there.
Benioff: We can also add the bit about Dany's vision in the house of the undying. This is some juicy stuff. Will definitely keep them hooked.

Six Seasons Later...

Benioff: DB, so the bit about Cercie's children is done. Which other prophesies do we have to fulfill?
Weiss: F*ck them. No more prophesies. We already have them hooked.

The bitch(danny ) got rage, so stubborn,over ambitious & underestimate good council.she overstepped,even cersei was shocked after the bell rang,dany resumed the burning of the city with innocent people in it,which proves she's worse than cersei.I hope this episode put to rest varys point of view concerning who sit on the throne, his death was unjust.

Aystarz:

If Ned was fair and just at all, he'd at least listen to Jaime's reasons and empathize just a lil bit. After all, Ned, too, helped a usurper to the throne, with good reasons to back it up.

Robert's war was just. So what they called him 'usurper'? Jaime only told Brienne. No one else.

Jaime's silence was his bane.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
She already reached an agreement to cease fire when the bell is rung and the gates opened but at that moment she had a flashback to the troubles she's had to deal with from season one and decided to get her full revenge.

At a point I was literally screaming cease fire at the dead of the night as if hoping she would hear me

Dany has Arya and Jon to contend with in the final episode. It didn't go down with them seeing innocents die.

Qyburn
Imagine been killed in a split of second by the man it took you a while to bring back to life.
Hahaha!!! That scene made me Lmao

Sandor gets to avenge his life long scar.

I said sometime Lord varys needed to die. And he did die. He already sent out some letters before he died tho. Let's see how the final episode pans out and who eventually gets to sit on the throne.
I'll like it to be Jon tho. He's the best fit IMHO

Yonce:

This isn't out of character. One thing that must be taken into account in this very episode is GRIEF! She was hurting on almost every side. Her army was depleted, the Starks had issues with sending their men, she lost Viserion, lost Missandei in a gruesome manner even when she had no intention of warring. All she wanted was to take the throne.

This is a poor lady who isn't experiencing just loses to death but love. Jon is slipping and there is the Sansa snake to contend with. We all have our breaking points as humans. Some of us would have done worse with just a loss.

Her action was irrational, no doubt. But taken into account how she battled with herself even after the bell tolled... She struggled, wept and got to her breaking point. I'd raze the city to the ground if I were in her shoes.

Finally, we have only one episode left and then this thread will be closed FOREVER!!!

Tired of reading some comments here.
