So in the end (or by the end) the good guys got what they wanted and the bad guys got there comeuppances. Over all a pretty standard TV/Hollywood fantasy story... good guys win.... bad guys lose....

Danyerius died, but only after freeing numerous places including King's Landing & Westeros... her death was her comeuppance for turning evil.

Jon... in the beginning all he wanted was to be a member of the Night's Watch, and that is where he ended up. He never wanted power, so gave it up.

Sansa... in the beginning she wanted to be the Joffrey's girl friend and become queen. She got both of those desires, given that the Queen part was Queen of the North.

Gendry... pretty much just wanted to live and he ended up the ruler of Storm's End. All in all not too bad.

The Hound wanted to kill his brother the Mountain and he did.

The Mountain got is comeuppance for being a evil murderous SOB

Jamie... all he really wanted was to be with Cersie, and in the end he was.

Brianna of Earth wanted Jaime, to be a knight and to be in the Kingsguard... she got Jaime (for a night), became a knight and ended up head of the Kingsguard.

Tyrion wanted to be valued (IMO) and in the end he was.

Lord Varys wanted peace in the Seven Kingdoms and a good roller... he never saw it, but got what he wanted.

Euron Greyjoy wanted to have sex with Cersie, and he got that.

Yara Greyjoy wanted to become Queen of the Iron Islands and got that.

Cersie wanted to be the ruler of the 7 kingdoms, and she was... sort of.... but got her comeuppance for being an evil b****.

Bran... sort of wanted to live in a dream world... done.

Arya... had her list. They all died... some she killed others were killed "for" her.

The North wanted to break away from the 7 kingdoms and got their way.

The other 6 Kingdoms wanted a good ruler and go their own way.

The Dothraki wanted to battle and kill... done.

The Unsullied, at least by the end wanted freedom...sort of... and got that.

Davos wanted the bay and to fix or help Flea Bottom...

Etc... etc... etc...

Lot's of bad guys got their comeuppances...

Pretty standard TV/Hollywood fantasy story... good guys win.... bad guys lose....


Lol, according to this, everyone got what they wanted, good or evil.

it look like game of thrones tried to hard be different than lords of the ring. basely, good vs evil is still the best story plot in these kind of fantasy.


These two series are a lot different from one another, although people are pointing to the upcoming LoTR Amazon series as the show for fans to turn to now that GOT is over. Amazon’s upcoming Wheel of Time series might be a better choice.

I was fine with it. People say he did nothing. I disagree. He actively sacrificed himself as bait for the Night King and could have died as a result. I don’t know what more he could have done really, to be honest.



He could have been knitting scarves and mittens once he was in Winterfel. You don't need legs to knit!

I'm beginning to think the kings and queens were on to something when they laughed at Samwell for suggesting "The People should choose their king."

I guess, your right. he was some interest, when he walked. the show really didn't have much magic to be like most these kind of fantasy. that I would see in the show, magic would help the series. believe on that.

The Lord of Light seemed to be the only god with any power.

Tyron: why isn't there a god of tits and wine.

I bet the services would be well attended.
