Why would the unsullied collect Jon's sword when he wanted to see Tyrion and failed to collect the same sword when he wanted to see Dany in the throne room.

The thing is that you can't blame the writers of the show though.
The show became too expensive to produce, with the actors being massive stars now, the network couldn't afford them anymore... One million per actor!

So they had to rush it, which makes bad writing and mistakes inevitable.


If the show was extended than usual, the Network, might not meet their expected profit, due to the high cost of the show.

So let's all give them a break, they didn't do a bad job

Seun:

That made no sense, too. He had the right to make his case to the lords, and they had the right to reject him. Rudeness is not intelligence.

I don't understand why Sansa still wants the north to be independent now that her brother is the king. I guess the writers wanted to appease women after destroying Dany. They shouldn't have destroyed Dany. Sansa has nothing on Dany. Dany was charismatic and clever. Sansa is just bossy and sassy. They should have found a way send Dany back to Mereen to continue her impressive career as the Breaker of Chains.
But... That clears up the fact that a lot of comments here saw her as being jealous of Dany, when she kept insisting on the North being independent.

We now know that she actually did want it, Dany or not.

The Lords could have agreed to pardon him, just as they agreed to elect Bran as King. Jaime was pardoned after slaying the Mad King, afterall.

But the unsullied wanted punishment meted out..

Lest he frees him I guess.

You don't go in to see a prisoner while armed.

And even if Jon and Dany were not actually in synch anymore, I'm not sure she declared him an enemy yet. Moreover, that was a dagger. Can easily be hidden from anyone.

Jon killing Dany was not good storyline by the D&D,she should have died accidentally, if cercei was murdered it would have been a plus to the show.but it happened other way round.so in summary D&D just made us believe cercei was better of.

So much comments as to why this wasn't this or that. You guys should give them a break already.

This last episode wasn't as bad as some of you are making it look.

Truth is, no matter how it ended, some of you would have still had something to complain about.

Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by DP84: 7:28am On May 20, 2019
It's a terrible ending! D&grin promised it would be a bitter sweet ending but it turns out to be a confusing one. I'll personally highlight my ideas and points...

1. Dany became the villain and as much as I love her, the cliche of the villain dying had to be respected.
2. Drogon and Jon had no bond whatsoever but how it saw a dagger in Dany's stomach but chose to torch the throne instead beats my imagination. Perhaps it knew all along that Jon is a Targaryen.
3. It was foolish to have allowed Dany alone with Jon. The idea was too predictable. After Tyrion resigned as Hand and knowing Jon is a Targaryen, it was only natural that Jon was kept under heavy watch and not allowed to personally spend time alone with Dany except she states otherwise.
4. Having captured Jon, the Unsullied, in the real sense should have killed him but they stalled for no reason and waited for Lords of Westeros to arrive before Greyworm started huffing and puffing. Lazy writing.
5. Turns out Bran could see the future but he pretended to be an 'archiver' of memories and the past. His words gave him away and almost seemed he influenced the whole Dany madness then made Jon kill her to dim the chances of the latter becoming King.
6. I love the fact that the wheel of rulership is broken. The transition from Dany to Bran with both not capable of birthing is thoughtful and amazing.
7. Samwell Tarly unconsciously introduced democracy but it was laughed at and rebuffed by all.
8. It doesn't make sense that House Stark had more than a representative. The only person fit enough to be at the seat of the Westeros Lord was Sansa. Arya and Bran had no business there save Bran was trying to sell them his sagey Eyes of Horus nonsense but then, he made it known his presence was premeditated. I see him as a villain at this point than anything.
9. The new council seat is a joke. The make up doused the power and the influence of the king greatly.
10. It doesn't make sense that the North seceded and Bran agreed while the other Lords looked on like fools. Worse still is the fact that the king is from the new sovereign state. The North produced the king then backs out as one of the seven kingdoms. Where is that done?
11. The North has Sansa to thank for pushing the secession agenda but it was obvious she was only after power as much as any other power hungry bloke or mare.


Extras
1. Dany was translated to the Biblical Moses; see the Promised Land but never got there... Dany felt the throne but never had the chance to sit on it. Funny!
2. It is strange how Tyrion, as a prisoner dictated to the Lords of Westeros on who should be king and ended up proclaiming Bran before the Lords agreed.
3. With Ser Bronn on the council seat, it was obvious Tyrion would be a shitty hand all over a again. A chance at a clean start and all he did was influence the king to make Bronn Lord of High Garden.
4. Bran would at best been made Master of Whisperers under Dany. That they unanimously agreed to make him king is laughable. All Dany needed was good advisors and she would have been perfect.
5. I still see no reason why Drogon couldn't have torched Jon.

For me... I'd say I prefer the season finale of Into the Badlands to this nonsense!

The network was not bothered about more episodes. It was D and D that reassured them that six episodes would be enough for Season 8.

How on earth are people expecting that Drogon should have killed Jon? In the whole of the last kingdoms Aegon (Jon Snow) is the only one apart from Danny to mount a dragon. He is also the last Targeryen alive.. Drogon focused his anger on the iron throne since it's obvious that's the reason he killed her for...(creating the impression that if my Queen did not seat on the throne, then no one else will) Killing Jon Snow would have made it easier for him not to live with the guilt of being a Queen Slayer, leaving him alive and him later sent to the wall allows him to live with the guilt till his last breath(we could also see it all over him)

Sansa requested the Norths independence in front of Danny but the discussion was interrupted... The Starks are the rulers of the North, I see no reason why because the North has independence it shouldn't have a ruler as well.. Some said she jumped to the crown, Arya doesn't want it, the other Stark is already Lord of the Six Kingdoms. Their Uncle can't rule since Ned Stark still has living offsprings. Bran couldn't reject it cos it's for the greater good, and he's from the North too.

Almost All Families in the series were given a new ruler, from Sam to Yara to Baratheons bastard... You don't just expect GOT to tell the tale word for word, scene by scene.

A lot of negative reviews online, they messed up the last episode

*Tyrion dictating the terms of kingship while he's a prisoner

*Did everyone just forget that Jon is the rightful fvcking
heir?

*So the whole secret that Jon Snow was the legitimate heir to the throne didn't even needed to exist. 

I was patiently waiting to see the reveal. How everyone will react knowing Jon snow is a Targaryen but nothing about it.
