Super Freak
Some good moments but overall very disappointed.
1) Entire series is building up to the night king, and he gets completely wiped out in 1 battle. No surprise or shock (except the forced arya kill), very methodical standard battle done in 100 movies. It’s clear at this point, series went off script and is no longer based on g martin source material, as he would never allowed the most important component of the series to just end so blandly.
2) the night king never revealed his identity or goal, nothing was explained. Only thing we found out as a fact now is he is targaryen since he can withstand dragon fire. Most likely he is bran the builder - the old guy, previous three eye raven- that the children caught him while he was time traveling and turned him into the night king then lost control over him. Still no idea what his goal was though. Be nice if they revealed SOME detail as that story arc ends abruptly. Same feeling I have as after watching the ending to Lost - cheated.
3) red witch lighting the Dothraki swords on fire is cool, but they mindless charging to get massacred while everyone watched is just retarded. What is the point? after all that planning, this is what they come up with? And don’t tell me it’s their style, they follow khaleesi now
4) khaleesi letting her dragon sit on the ground just so the undead can get on it is also stupid, and even more stupid is the dragon refuse to fly until suffficent number of zombies are on it AND after khaleesi falls off, then it takes off....just so ser jorah can die.
5) most forced part of the movie is Arya (my favorite character) came out of nowhere to kill the night king. I get the faceless assassin training, but she still needs something to blend or hide. She has no invisibility....The back of the night king was facing a clear field surrounded by his army... there was also no plan...if this was their plan where Arya was hiding in some tree while bran was bait, then at least there is some satisfaction the planning worked. Instead this is pure random...
6) oh yeah, I also can’t see ****. I get GOT doesn’t have avengers budget and by making things dark a lot of details can be omitted to save money, but seriously you gotta make sure viewers can actually see some of the actions...otherwise just release an audio book instead.
7) Lyanna Mormont death vs the giant is probably the most well done part of the movie, it has the desperation emotionally, realistic and believable, while making the viewers feel true loss without forcing the death.
Hope I am wrong, but based on next episode preview, looks like we done with winter is coming / night king story arc for good, and it’s back to iron throne drama...after all this build up since season 1 eposiode 1. Hope the eventual book is not such a disappointment.
