As soon as Danny went bonkers and started destroying the capitol city i started thinking about what happens next. Whats the next move of any tyrant? To dispach anybody who has a claim to the throne and could become a threat to your rule. Sinse there is only one episode left in the whole series, I'm pretty darn sure danny is going to kill Jon and maybe gendry too in it for treason or some other made up offence.

It would be cool if tyrion becomes the mad queen killer. That would be poetic justice.

So who sits on the throne then? Sansa? Bran?

Who knows!! Maybe they decide that all this king and queen stuff is very barbaric and lame so instead they elect their next ruler by popular vote! Wouldn't that be nice!

It being GRRM'S lifes work i can just assume that all of the "good guys" die and the person who sits on the throne is a flawed ruler at best.

The kingdoms split again, as they were before Aegon's conquest.

I could see that happening. That could be concitered a good ending for places like Dorn or the Iron islands that don't get much reward for their allegiance to the throne.

And for the North. It would be a bittersweet thing for Sansa if she gets her independent North but Jon dies (and I'm certain he will, whether Dany kills him or he kills Dany and then is killed in turn).

Agreed, Jon is a dead man walking. Figuritively and literally.
 
I still think it would have been way more bad ass if Jon found out he was a Targaryen when Dany turns evil and tries to burn him with her dragon like she did with Varys and it doesn't do anything to him.
 
What a breathe of fresh air. A thread where the bones guy doesn’t come in and yell at everyone about how they are wrong and he knows way more about GOT than everybody else because he watched some movie with a dragon in it while in community college!

Would Kings Landing just cease to exist then after being burned to the ground?

Probably won't completely cease to exist, it seems too large for that. She didn't appear to literally destroy everything. But no longer a seat of power with the Crownlands subsumed by existing kingdoms (the Riverlands, Vale and the Reach).

I wrote my dissertation at DeVry University on Dragonheart 4: Battle for the Heartfire.
 
I wonder what's going to have the most disappointing ending, the Blazers vs Warriors or this final episode of GoT?
 
Pretty underwhelming, yeah.

Some nice cinematography. It had some poignant moments. But, yeah, this season almost didn't feel like it was the same show as the first seven seasons. It's weird. Probably would have stood better by themselves.

Warriors win in both

It could be award winning stuff and you'd fine more negative than positive feedback.

Yeah, but it'd be hard to argue this was award-winning stuff.

The ending was so melodramatic and predictable. Like I said above, it diverted quite a bit from what made the series so good in the first few seasons.

And the writing ... so many characters not ringing true. So many plot holes.

Why did the Starks have so much representation at the meeting that was supposed to be Tyrion's trial? Why wasn't there more representation from Daenerys' supporters? And how the heck did that turn from Tyrion's trial to the empowering of a new king?

And Bran ... Bran actually knowingly put into effect a lot of the things that led to the "bittersweet ending." And no one realizes it. Bran could have very easily altered things if he wanted. But he starts things down the devastating path by telling Sam to tell Jon his heritage right before the siege of King's Landing. And now he's going to try to "find" Drogon?

Seems like in a lot of ways the Stark children became the Littlefinger/Cerseis, perhaps more subtly. But people miss how Bran and Sansa influenced events in such a way that got Dany out of the way and put them in charge of all of Westeros because they were sympathetic characters the whole series.
 
I just thought there were so many ways to get another full season out of it?
Seemed like it just stopped?
 
I cheered when Jon killed Dany. My girlfriend got pissed at me. Overall a bad finale for a bad season but I did like that part.

They get arrested for not helping a guy who was getting mugged, instead making jokes and laughing. At their trial a bunch of people they've wronged in the past testify as character witnesses. They're sent to jail. Jerry does stand up in jail. The end.
