Why did they settle of 6 episodes? Is the actor per-episode cost too high with the ensemble?

Did Bran invent wheelchairs in the GoT universe? If so, it’s kind of a letdown that he has to wait until the invention of sidewalks to be able to go anywhere.

He pretty clearly doesn't go anywhere.

It's interesting, I had always expected in the final season that the Lannister/Stark conflict would be settled before the Night King conflict, just by the higher-stakes nature of the latter. But now that we're here it seems like the zombie war will be coming to a head in the next episode or two, leaving the final episodes to focus on the political situation. I suppose that makes sense considering the audience is way more invested in the fate of Cersei and her crew than any of the CGI zombies, but it's definitely not what I would have predicted.

Literally the whole point of this season is Cersei is going to be too vain and back-stabby to fight the white walkers, I assume.

The problem with making a low fantasy series that subverts the usual expectations, is that if you want it to turn high fantasy, eventually you will snag some tropes along the way.

Brianne should shag both of them in a 3 way then have the dudes die off to zombies and the show ends with a freezeframe of her winking to sansa.

Final episode is a cinema verite docudrama detailing the Night King's childhood in the slums of Eastern Europe living under the Soviet Bloc trying to make enough money to help his older sister get an abortion.

5 Emmys.

Does HBO still have the rights for a new Angels in America show but this time a Night King themed crossover?

There was that scene earlier where Arya crowd surfed over the top of a bunch of zombies that were clogging up a stairwell like it was no big deal. Lol, for all we know she ran like a cartoon across the tops of the zombies heads while they were all staring at Bran/NK haha

The dude in the Foley stage who got to make the empty coconut sound whenever she stepped on their heads has the best job on set.

Theon got an okay death but they halfassed his redemption. It really felt like after they ran out of GRRM material, the writers pretty much gave up on him and never really tried writing for the character, shoving it all on the actor to express with his eyes (he did a good job).

I always take issue with people saying the writers ran out of grrm material when the problem is grrm ran out of material.
