What's this?

Obviously its rushed, the detail we want will be in the books.

I don't really have a problem with how its going. It has to end somehow and not everyone will be happy. But I get it, this show is EXPENSIVE as hell and they could have made these last 2 seasons the normal 10 spot to give us some of that detail but would it ended any differently than it is now is my question to everyone saying they don't like it or complaining about it? Not saying you are doing either but I've asked the question to many people in my office this morning. Would it have changed anything with the end result, no good answer as of yet lol? I would have liked to see Cersei head cut off but i was also fine with her getting squashed like a bug. I was really hoping Jamie would have killed her is the one thing that really disappointed me.

He went to fight for the greater good and then boom back to Cersei. That's my only complaint, what was the point of him in the North.

And I believe GRRM and HBO wanted 10 seasons so that would have made sense. ** -- AbsolutVT03 05/13/2019 1:30PM
