#GameOfThronesFinale discussion time. The last episode was about as good as it could have been given the narrative decisions and character choices made in the preceding season. That sounds like damning with faint praise but I really enjoyed it and respected the decisions it made.On Internet Archive

#GameOfThronesFinale The show wrote itself into a position where these were the most narratively satisfying endings for these characters. Is the season as a whole narratively satisfying? Not really. But that's to do with how the show diverged from the books.Permalink On Internet Archive

#GameOfThronesFinale When (/ If) GRRM finishes the books, the ending will be totally different. I've seen GRRM compared to a gardener: he plants seeds and then lets the narrative grow out as it will. There are seeds in the books that weren't planted in the show e.g. fAegon.Permalink On Internet Archive

#GameOfThronesFinale And Ramin Djawadi continued his unbroken streak of brilliance as the composer of the show's soundtrack. An incredible composer and one of the best working in popular entertainment today.Permalink On Internet Archive

#GameOfThonesFinale The track 'The Iron Throne' in particular is an incredible combination of various leitmotifs from the series. The scene it comes from - Drogon and the throne - is spectacular nonsense and this track is an absolute highlight open.spotify.com/track/5lboLByEnvwxLmWjTS2dfpPermalink On Internet Archive
