Watching TLJ is like taking a shit. You do it to get it out of your system, then you flush it and forget about it. Money is not a measure of creative quality. It can make a lot of money and still be a creative train wreck. Well, DP was stillborn really. Knew it sucked just from the trailer. So if it was no surprise to me, you can bet cash money it was no surprise to Disney. I don't think it really reflects on SW anyway - different franchise. Forcefully applying long strips of leather to deceased equines comes to mind ... *reaches for popcorn* Don't know whether to laugh or stare in horror. Maybe both. A reasonable explanation is that he wanted the events to happen so he could be king. Another reasonable explanation is that the writing was terrible. Or maybe it was a budget issue. They could probably pay him less to just sit in a chair and look creepy. Of course. Why kill the cash-cow? All the scenes mentioned by other posters were great, but I'll also add Drogon melting the Iron Throne to slag. I always thought the best answer to the question of who should sit on the throne was "nobody". I figured he would return to Mereen. I liked it. Ned is finally avenged by the Starks winning the Game of Thrones, whereupon they no longer need to fight but are free to live the lives they want - Brand as king, Sansa as queen, Arya gets to explore the world, and Jon can join Tormund and be the freeman he always was. A dog turd stuck to the bottom of my shoe is a giant step up from Ruin Johnson Of course, the Star Wars trilogy they’re doing What gets me is they’ve made 24 of these movies. They ought to have production down to a fine art by now. How can they fuck it up so royally? Fuck RJ, his trilogy, and all who sail in it. End of. Except greyworm saw Missandei decapitated My take is that she acted out of pure rage and revenge for Missandei and the other dragon. Her original plan was to burn Kings Landing, but Tyrion talked her out of it. As she heard the bells ring and you could see the rage building in her face, I imagine she was thinking that Missandei and the dragon would still be alive if she’d burned it all in the first place. At that point, she snapped, overcome with rage, and went “fuck it”. “I beheld a pale horse, and the one that sat upon it was Death, and Hell followed with them” To me, this confirms that Jon is as dumb as a box of rocks. It ought to have been obvious that Dany is a tyrant. Sansa and Arya weren’t fooled.
