for real though, Dany went from zero to Hitler in like five seconds

This is probably one of the weirdest twists I've ever seen in any show. I really can't think of anything like it. One of the protagonists of the show which, up until this point, had a violent side but mostly seemed good just straight up started burning entire families alive for no reason. She's literally the evilest character in the show now. Joffrey was crazy but he only killed a few people. Cersei blew up the church but only because the cult was going to take over the country. None of the other characters before this have killed this many people for no gain whatsoever

Shit's crazy, man. I can't think of any show where one of the head "good guys" not only turned evil but turned this ridiculously evil so quickly and for no reason. It legit feels like if, after ten years, Captain America decided he wanted to become Captain Fuhrer and used the infinity stones to reinstate the Third Reich while simultaneously sodomizing Howard the duck.

It could have actually worked well if they didn't flip the switch from 0-100 immediately. That arc was just shit because they did no build up to it.

yeah, this should have been hinted at one or two seasons ago

I feel like they only hinted at it this season and not even from the beginning because she still seemed normal in the first few episodes

The cocksuckers were offered a full season by HBO but they turned it down saying they could wrap it all up in 6 episodes. All of Danys unravelling that should have happened over 5 or 6 episodes happened in twenty fucking minutes, in rapid succession. There was no breathing room to feel the impacts of her losses and why it drove her crazy.

It started at the end of Episode 2, was kinda put on hold in Epidou 3, and started to built up in Episode 4. Needed a lot more buildup tho

You are all just salty because in retrospect all the signs were there and you missed them all because instead of actively engaging with the work of art you passively consumed it and expected to be spoon-fed everything as usual 😎

What would you do with another episode? Have Varys fucking around on Dragonstone and Tyrion procrastinating before telling Dany? For real, it's the final season. There's no place for extra exposition.

Ur suhc a nerd

Can't believe I'm agreeing with Ed 😒

The whole "the gods flip a coin" thing make it pretty clear that there was a 50/50 chance she'd go nuts

Helter_SkeIter dropping unironic truth bombs:

I don't understand why people are mad about Dany.

She is a foid and hormonal so she is prone to this happening. All woman are susceptible to this. She was probably on her period that day and not thinking straight and that's why she committed genocide.

I found this episode to be refreshingly honest and accurate.

it's tru

Lol dude, they hinted she was ruthless and all but she literally went out of her way to kills THOUSANDS of innocents. Nothing she did before indicated she was anywhere near this bloodthirsty. I could have seen her killing Cersei’s army or destroying the castle but not the whole entire city. She even killed her own armies that she supposedly loved.

Again, she literally decided to go max fear after Jon wouldn't love her in the gussy.

She thinks nobody will ever try her again after this

man I seriously cannot believe this is what the eight years of buildup were for

part of me regrets ever starting the show if this is what it was leading up to

what cracked me up is they probably kept all the same plot points GRRM had foreshadowing her turn in the show, it's just they framed it as a "yaas kween slay" moment for ratings, which is why everyone's buttmad about this """twist""". To them, Dany's evil out of nowhere, despite the fact she spent like 5 seasons burning anyone who opposed her in the show.

The reprise (“on the last” or whatever that is called I’m burgerland) even had a mini montage of Daenerys doing awful shit and several quotes going back to fucking Aeomon saying “A Targaryen all alone in the world is a terrible thing”. You are either a showfag or a single digit is reader if you didn’t saw this coming.

And yeah, subverting the whole YAAASS KWEEEN bs has been the best thing D&D has ever done lmao.

We call it a recap here.

Yeah but she took a whole bunch of other cities without indiscriminately burning them to the ground. Problem was that they made the murdering of everyone last episode so gratuitous. All they had to do was make king's landing hard to take and the casualties inevitable. Maybe have like 10,000 peasant fuckers huddled in the Red Keep and get roasted.

After she takes the city she can put way too many people to death out of vengeance, the Dothraki murder-rape a couple thousand more, Westeros gets all rebelliony, and then maybe she kills Sansa after she keeps being an uppity bitch who can't keep her name out of her mouth. Now you've got a reasonable arc and plenty of reason for Jon to knife her.

It's because D&D saw those dollar signs in the new Star Wars trilogy they signed on for and decided to rush and throw together a final season for a final cash grab. I realized this when the episode last night crammed 3 or 4 episodes worth of tension building into 15 minutes of ham-fisted dialogue, followed by more retarded fan service, instead of a any kind of decent storytelling. My only hope is that they completely fuck up Star Wars to the point that they kill the franchise off.

I think it's more that their first attempt at writing their own storylines in season 5 was received so poorly they decided "fuck this, let's get this shit over with".

There's a reason season 6 was nonstop fanservice and then the pacing got all weird afterwards.

they literally repeat the whole thing about targarians having a 50% chance to be insane, right before the battle. they also clearly show her being paranoid and unhinged in both 1 hour and 20 minute episodes before the battle. multiple characters start realising she's nuts and warning jon and others, since the start of season 8.

how da fuck that not enough build up and foreshadowing? like how easy and simple do some ppl need their tv shows, it already extremely fkn obvious it was coming.

Because after seeing her for eight season, it felt like a last minute change

game of thrones is not very deep, it's a very popcornish low brow entertainment show, all the foreshadowing and lead up to her going nuts was so fucking obvious that characters may as well have broken the fourth wall and turned to the audience and said "as you can see, the bitch is becoming crazier and crazier"

you guys are just as stupid as you're claiming I am if you think this descent into insanity was actually handled well and not as dumb as all the other ways they're resolving these plotlines

This wasn't a gradual descent into evil like Walter White where you saw the humanity stripped away. Every season, he got slightly worse so that it felt natural by the time he killed tons of people. With Khaleesi, she went from just being a little headstrong and violent (but nothing that felt too out of place for a medieval period) to flying around for hours and killing innocent people because she was bored. She went from being somewhere in the middle of the pile morality-wise to making Ramsay Bolton look like a saint in a matter of minutes.

dude just stick to scooby do, low intelligence sword shit is obviously too complex for you, most literally everyone i talked to about the show had no trouble seeing her going batshit coming from a mile away.

oh yeah cause there were totally hints that she wanted to kill millions of people

up until this point, she only killed slavers, Samwell's relatives that were too stupid to submit to a woman with a dragon, and that hut of evil Dothraki guys

then the bitch went genocidal because her translator got beheaded

god you're so fucking painfully stupid, just stop replying to me.

Wasn't that literally the whole point of the Targaryens? That the show has brought up over and over? The mad king was originally seem as benevolent before he wanted to blow up King's Landing.

Suddenly now people are mad that the show isn't spoon feeding them old information.

Captain America decided he wanted to become Captain Fuhrer and used the infinity stones to reinstate the Third Reich

That's not to far off from what happens in one of the recent comic book runs.

Also she got dumped by her nephew and turned into a femcel lmao.

Bet she calls her Dragon her 'scalebaby' tbh, she already calls herself mother of dragons like that based crazy cat lady on here yesterday.

OTOH the cat lady can call herself Mother of Cats, the Unscratchable.

Wait a minute, didnt that cat lady take in her unwanted nephew as well?

CAT MOMMY IS DRAGON MOMMY 🐈 = 🐲

And the reason shes having internet breakdowns is because that nephew won't stuff her twat. Really makes me 🤔🤔🤔

White foids would be so much cooler if they fucked dragons, not dogs. 🙄

All the things the fucking Swordshit writers could have ripped off and they rip off fucking Spaceshit. I was waiting for her to start talking about how much she hates sand and how if your not with her your her enemy.

one thing I was wondering is how she can actually control the dragons while in the air

is she doing some Ratatouille shit? Does pulling on the scales indicate where to fly and what to burn?

We will never know

It's the same physics as when you take a picture with your weird little ewok dog fam

It's a skunk I think

The reason why Targaryens and Valyrians practiced incest is because the magic/psychic dragon gene is recessive. In the books if you don't have the genetics for Dragon bonding the Dragon will kill you.

In the books they wanted some dragon riders so they petitioned everyone who claimed to be a Targaryen bastard to come and try to ride a dragon. Hundreds burned, but a few were compatible.

It's like you've never met a mayo foid before.

Mayo foids are hot. All other races are oretty nasty tbh

Are you fucking lost?

No i like to go against the status-kwo of hating mayo on sandwhiches. Tbh i like mayo and hate bbq sauce and ketchup

Tbh i like mayo

OUT

kwo

is that filipino? what are you trying to say chinker

mayoness aside, the scene where she finally snapped was the first time I've found Emilia Clarke attractive since the first season. This show is making me confront things about myself I'm not fond of.

I wouldn't know since I haven't watched anything past the battle of Winterfell but I'll take your word for it.

It was that time of the month

Dany got auntzoned and took the braincel blackpill. Not sure what's so hard to understand about this...

I was kinda thinking that. They sorta made Dany into an incel, lmao. She got rejected then did the fantasy equivalent to shooting up a school

Get friend to talk to buddy.

Hey, looks like you can finally identify with her on something. Though she is still hot and you are a loveless fattie.

The poor rat he stuck a mophead onto probably has Stockholm syndrome by now tbqhfam

Oh well

Rude!

You mean Queenzoned

I find it pretty depressing that the main plot points of this season are actually good on paper. The excution has just been so trash (writing only, the actors are great).

Dany becoming the big bad could have been awesome, even red wedding level, if it had been developed properly

Visuals have been kino too, well with the exception of most of E03.

sodomizing Howard the duck.

TBF I don't think that would be too out of the question for Howard the Duck

My hot take was better 🙄

Of course, /r/Drama uders upvote cis mayo straight man.

They upvote ugly fatso

Mssterlawlz is a cis straight man? Color me surprised, I always thought he was that androgynous lesbian Pat from SNL.

I came here to say this

Shes inbred and that type of crazy runs in Her family. They've been foreshadowing this throughout the whole series

I for one support our new dragon queen as she's upsetting so many people.

Did the midget die?

No, MasterLawlz is still alive

not yet

Don’t be sorry to Lawlz. He has a normie name and a fat normie face. Nigga eats Kraft Dinner for breakfast

Kihara Yuiitsu well full Hitler in ~20 sec once WR "killed" her dog, but I didn't see anyone complaining about that.

weebshit

I honestly wouldn’t mind if you died mr.lawlz.

Why the fuck are you writing this? No friends to talk about Game of Thrones with? Ya i thought so LOSER!!!!

So true

Did you forget to use an alt in that response?

No

I hate to burst your bubble, but Dany never was a hero. She is on her revenge quest to gather an army and slay a shitton of people. Also she is inbred and from a line of crazy people

I'm not really following you. Camille Chamoun liked to play at being just some traditional political figure (despite triggering a civil war), but as far as I can tell, Dany was pretty aggressive from the beginning. His militia's actions in the Tal el-Zatar siege speak for themselves. If you didn't notice any foreshadowing before that episode where Samir Geagea takes care of him and his family, you weren't paying attention to the story.

Unironically happy to see a lawlz post.

Captain America decided he wanted to become Captain Fuhrer and used the infinity stones to reinstate the Third Reich while simultaneously sodomizing Howard the duck.

Please stop I can only get so erect.

Btw GRRM has said that his ending im general will not be very different. So Dany always was supposed to go mad but yeah you are totally right the transition just was way too fast and not believable.

Aegon the Conquerer did the same to harrenhal

It was awesome and the people of Kings Landing deserved it.

Normally I would post the links, but I unironically agree with this post.

Why is anyone surprised about this. The whole reason all of this happened was the first king had brain mush from rampant incest and went insane, wanting to burn the entire city rather than surrender. Now Dany, another product of rampant incest, goes batshit insane and also burns the city down. Flashes of her insanity have popped up throughout the show mind you.

Like I just don't really understand how anyone is surprised this happened, it's almost cliche. It's like people have forgotten the Targaryens defining aspect was incest fueled insanity.

Dany did nothing wrong. King’s Landing can join Hamburg, Dresden, Pforzheim, Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki on the list of cities that deserved it.

PLEBIANS YOU MUST DISPERSE!

In season 5, Barristan persuaded Daenerys to give people fair trials. Then he was killed and in retaliation, Daenerys grabbed a bunch of the noblemen and fed one to the dragons. That was the moment she decided to marry one of them who was on his knees, preparing for death.

"If you think this has a happy ending, you have not been paying attention."

- Ramsay Snow.

Michael Corleone went from an army veteran a respected member of the community to a cold ass gangster in 5 seconds.

...after someone tried to murder his father lol

It was pretty apparent even in Essos she was going to end up this way lawlz. She locked an innocent woman in that vault with the dude in Qarth, she crucified all those people, and she's always been stubborn and ready to burn shit.

I saw the writing on the wall by like season 4

I did not do a Hitler!

No not really. I agree the transition was kind of rushed but they were dropping hints here and there across the seasons. It could have been done better but I don't think it was out of nowhere. And I'm really glad they went this direction with her character.

She shoulda gone full targtard after one of her dragons gets killed. Then her snapping and deciding to burn shit down would make some sense. As it stands, getting triggered by her enemies just surrendering makes dany look like a retard rather than a interesting and tragic villain

she seemed to barely give a shit that her adopted children had died

Ban me pussy

Until know that is.

They had hinted that she was vengeful and jealous and might be more aggressive in battle than she needs to be

They didn't hint that she would fly around for several hours yelling "Drogon, burn them! BURN THEM ALL! The women AND the children"

You're right, at least in the tv show. The thing is there were other factors also, like her realizing she didn't have the loyalty of most of her subjects, even if she did take over the city, which lead her to decide that she would rule by fear. My point is you can justify it although yes the writing could've been better and her character could've been more developed.

Nothing hinted that she was THAT batshit in the slightest

I think it would have been in-character for her to destroy the red keep after the surrender or something to demonstrate her power but not killing tens of thousands of people including countless members of her own armies

they literally repeat over and over that her family has a 50% chance of going insane, and she becomes more and more distrustful and paranoid leading up to the battle.

then she literally fucking says "i guess i'll have to rule by fear then". like if you didn't see this coming, you're a retard. i watched the episode with a friend and both of us saw her killing spree a mile away.

like if you didn't see this coming, you're a retard.

you can just call lawlz a retard, because he is one

Ruling by fear doesn’t necessary mean destroying an entire city

I mean ffs, now she has to live in a city that is barely standing. It’s like taking a shit on your own floor.

looks like you still managed to miss the part where she has is insane because her bloodline has insanity genes, for fuck sake, the characters literally have 15 conversations about the fact she's going insane and why, in the episodes and even minutes leading up to the battle.

That doesn't make it less idiotic. I never felt like she was anywhere near this insane. Having a bunch of characters spout off what they think you should be feeling doesn't change that. That's just crappy forced exposition.

Can you rule by fear if all of your subjects are dead?

The ruling through fear bit would be smart if she actually acted fully in accordance with it. To do so, she'd have to execute Tyrion and Jon before the battle even started, burn Jon publicly so the Northerners stay in line and then burn the city.

Right now, Jon is on the field at the head of his men, aware she is a crazy bitch and was just furnished with the reason the nobles would support him in a future war(Not having a psycho queen). As expected, an foid can't even realpolitik right.
