Just look at the typical cliches used so far this season. TBH there probably isn't a way to wrap this show up to leave all fans satisfied, but if this is the effort that they're going to give they're going to be a lot of unhappy people these next three weeks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually on your side with the whole "showrunners are in over their head" thing. I just can't believe the thing you're the most hung up on is easily explainable, and even if it's a little problematic, it's like 300 spots down the list on things going wrong with the latter seasons. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be happy if they don't cut corners on the little things. If Arya did all that and didn't end up killing the NK, ie., drops the dagger and the dying Theon catches and stabs him, we aren't having this conversation. They made it impossible to look past the absurdity of the situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 1 hour ago, NYRaider said: I've mentioned the plot hole a few times in the thread but essentially it's this: • In season 6 the NK sees Bran in his vision and marks him so that he can kill the 3ER. • The NK immediately goes to the warewood tree and kills the 3ER. • Obviously, the NK knows that Bran has the ability of the 3ER. • After he kills the 3ER he just lets Bran run. Hodor holds the door and the girl drags Bran through the snow to escape the NK and the whites. So you're telling me that the NK had Bran outside of the wall, being defended/dragged by a teenage girl in a blizzard, and was capable of tracking his every movement, why not kill him then? If killing Bran was so important to him that he risked his life and stepped in front of his entire army to deliver the killing blow why didn't he just kill him earlier? He could've easily tracked Bran down in the wilderness and killed him then and there during season 6. How is it that he wasn't concerned with killing Bran at all that day but 2 seasons later takes an extreme risk to kill him. We went over this like 2 weeks ago. He had no way of getting south of the Wall. Bran with his mark on him gave him a shot of doing that. Had he killed him back in season 6, what was the Night King gonna do after that? Killing Bran was not his only goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they chose to, theyve set themselves up nicely for a heavily story driven result. Which if they did, would satisfy the majority with any result. Same as the Red and Purple weddings pulled heavy impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
