I don’t mind the idea of Bran becoming king at the end but you’ve got to do more with him than have him download a software update and then talk in vague one-liners for the next 2 seasons. It’s just not very believable
I literally don't know what it means
is he a murderous psychopath?
does he use his powers for good?
He's not even a character so I have no idea at all what him being kings means at all
And I never will, I suppose?
Kind of the point, tbh. He's basically ChatGPT brought to you by the "magic" of the world. Who wouldn't want a monarch that just synthesized answers to complex questions through analysis of ALL of known history, basically? It kind of works even if it does make him super fricking boring.
They did a shit job in the show but check this out and I was kinda stoked they made him king.
My favorite was the coffee cups and water bottles they kept leaving in the sets and the rubber armor and weapons that’d flop around every once in awhile and how the costumes got so much shittier
It’s like a fricking power rangers show by the end
>I got murdered and came back from dead and then I rode a dragon and fought ice zombies and saved the world and then I had to kill my lover and I had lots of aggressive wild sex with attractive and insane women
>oh yeah well I got carried around by a moron talked to a geriatric tied to a tree and then became autistic and I’m a limp dicked virgin that watched my sister get raped it was kinda nice ngl lol lmao
>yeah you’re right you should be king bro that’s a great story man
I didn't watch the later seasons, what's with that meme of Bran finding Sansa's rape beautiful?
It’s never explained
If i recall when he sees her for the first time all warlocked out, he comments about how beautiful she looked on her wedding day/night and by proxy her very rape the same evening.
my favourite part is when Grey Worm is like "YOU DO NOT TALK" and then Tyrion immediately goes into a speech that decides the fate of the realm
There's so many layers to how bad season 8 is it's amazing
On a fundamental level, the scene is also stupid.
Why even bring Tyrion there if you didn't want him to speak?
uncle.. sit down
>Bunch of foreign mercenaries now occupy the remains of Westeros' capital
>They threaten to kill the kinslaying consigliere of the insane woman who just killed hundreds of thousands
>Instead of banding together to kill them all, the lords of the seven kingdoms humor them and convene a council for them
The Davids capsized the show to leave and take the helm as Star Wars directors, but public backlash was so great that they ended up directing a Leslie Jones special on Netflix instead.
>Robert Baratheon’s legitimised heir sitting right there
Starks were the last legitimate royal family before Aegon conquered everything. If we go by merit, Bran should be king. If we go by might, then I'm pretty sure at that point no one be able to stand up to the North and a motherfricking Lich Warlock Xavier who can kill anyone from the other side of the globe. The Baratheon boy had no claim over Bran's
Jon Snow is not a full Stark though.
Hell are you talking about, the Lannisters and Arryns are right there
Qyburn should have been king.
how did that fat bastard end up grand maester when he didn't have enough time to forge his chain?
Because he cured greyscale, an incurable death sentence of a disease. Which apparently only entails cutting it off the person to get rid of it. Fricking christ.
I mean, Tyrion is right. Bran is essencially unkillable and wont age for a very long time. He is also the best spy ever. His rule will be the most stable possible and thats the only thing that could fix everything. If anyone else became king, the continent would be thrown into war for decades
>immortal cripple king with superpowers to spy on you while you frick your wife through the eyes of that gnat that just drowned in the sweat from your testicles
yea who wouldnt love that
its terrible hes a deeply unlikable unthoughtout charicter who is just superpowerd because
overlooked kid is the strongest because reasons
its dog water
he has litterly no place whatsoever in a royal court let alone king so they made him a demigod who now has all of those atributes
what does it even mean to be a kingdom if this is how they choose kings
why not all just give up to the wills of the fates
they are slaves to a demigod hoping he does good
why will he be good?
"because he has superpowers and one of them is to be good"
yea .......
>eather A he is no longer the person he was ie demonic possesion/angelic usurpation
very fricked up
or B
>hes still the twisted frickup kid who now has super powers what could go wrong
The idea is so extreme and I don't even know what it means, that's what drives me crazy. Like you see Bran for 2 seasons or whatever as the three eyed raven and he's just a creepy frick who likes watching rape and apparently orchestrated things to be king
but does he spy on people with his powers to blackmail them?
does he scan his kingdom looking for people in need to send help?
do the people view him as a god? Do they like him?
What does he do, what are his goals, and what does it all mean
and I know the dumb "why do you think I came all this way" line was just dumb meme shit, but if you take it at it's face, he went through everything and the white walker war was just a distraction on the way to his real goal to be king to.. what?
Like I don't know what any of this means at all, what he does. They didn't even show him really using his powers. Season 7 does the awful littlefinger shit, and they rely on some moronic sansa/arya betrayal/letter storyline instead of just having Bran frick over littlefinger? They just tease about it
im revving myself up bros
Oh and also, he gives his sister her own kingdom. That surely will never cause any problems in the future with that realm, nor any problems with the other people in the six kingdoms who also want to secede
honestly its insane
imagine just for a moment that you go though all of that as any kingdom
then you realise some entity has hollowed out the soul of a cripple boy and knows the secrets to the universe
like what the frick is it can you feel emotion or are you a husk
do you care about mortal matters or are you operating on a higher plane
why does a mortal vessel confine you what happens if you are ousted from it where is bran
soo soooo many questions and they make this abomination a king
make him a fricking advisor like merlin or any of the batshit insane ether influenced advisors throught myth
nobdy makes the insane ghost king they ask it for advice
You don't even know what you are talking about ESL street shitter
>overlooked kid is the strongest because reasons
He isn't tho. But the other Starks either died, got lost or were being raped.
he has superpowers buko......
Animal Control Mind Control Possession Precognition Time Travel
Bran Stark - Super Powers - Superhero Database
ohh no no no anon
Thats how we know you are either too young or a speedwatcher/reader. The others did too with both Robb and Arya being even more atunned to them.
bro being able to teleport maybe 5 metres or being immune to fire
compared to fricking time travel what are we disguising here they are ants to him to say they both have superpowers is the same as saying
a wagie is a ceo
"well er huh hes theee ceo of himself"
yea and the ceo drives a $250,000 car and just bought a yatch
"well the wagie has a rubber ring and a bike"
dude cmon bran is broken for any universe
Jaime is such a b***h, I hate what they did to him.
I still think it's hilarious that Bran was so inconsequential that they wrote him off for an entire season and fans didn't even notice.
I want to see Maisie go down on Sophie
We all do. But the only one who got to see it was Joe Jonas 🙁
>says some shit like "why do you think i came all this way"
>despite having previously stating as the one eyed raven he doesn't "want" anymore
moronic fricking show. only one of ten thousand problems but jesus frick i hate thinking about it.
Yo this spirit is stealing the soles of crippled kids
>lets make him king
fr fr
>no cap
"as my first decree i would like to say im a superduper smarty pants and even though i am above the world i will rule it hah ha haha i will make your lives happy because hapiness is a foreign concept to me that i no longer understand ha haha ahah"
>we dun goofed
Having a folklore based form of government still isn't quite as stupid as democracy.
My favorite part is that GRRM has spent the past few years trying to rewrite his ending so that everyone doesn't hate it. He's gonna die not finishing his books out of embarrassment kek
That was obvious once he finally got big name recognition. He was already making excuses for a decade about some aging up loop bs when he's just a lazy fat old bastard out of ideas. The show was the nail in the coffin.
If D&D wanted to just give up why didn't they just go with the kino white walkers win ending. Instead of having to worry about an intelligent story, just have cool death sequences for everyone
like if you're going to give up why the frick not
it's so frustrating
They thought it didn't matter. Normies ate up dogshit like season 5-8. They should have released normies wanted the cousin fricker storyline and have the tragedy be arya or sansa getting killed.
You just know grrm told them this is how it ends but the show missed important plot beats that made it make any sense
What is Bran's tax policy?
he taxes people of their privicy the kingdom of its legitimacy and young cripple boys of their sovrenty
its all very complicated
increasing income tax by 2% so that he can afford raising benefits for all the crippled children
giving rights to women and convincing them to get a job so that there's double the people to tax
Women already work in feudal societies. They work alongside men and children in the fields (like 90% of people's jobs)
And households are taxed, not individuals. This makes no sense
I saw his tax policy. It was beautiful. Sansa, the tax policy. It was beautiful, Sansa.
HAHAHAHA BURN c**t BURN. TAKE THE L prostitute, LMAO GET DIGESTED b***h WOOHOOOO!!!!
The heat from that would melt those people standing around it
Democracy came about as a compromise to keep the plebs from rioting against the patricians. It wasn't something that some midge invented out of thin air
Remember how Peter Baelish was lord of the Vale and some goblin kills him without a trial, all because he saved Sansa from getting pushed out of the moon door by her aunt. That was great
It's unreal how stupid this scene was. I can't believe people tried to defend it for months.
>Who has the best story? They should be kind because.... THEY JUST SHOULD, OKAY?!
>North granted independence right in from of the Iron Islanders who say nothing
>Prisoner and right hand man of magic hitler calling the shots for some reason
>Maybe the eunech army could start their own house!
Unreal.
Edmure should've been king.
what's his tax policy?
sit down anoncle
Do you think he regrets letting those two morons write the end of the story for him?
Remember the Iron Bank? What was their point? And how do they collect debts?
>And how do they collect debts?
if you refuse to pay they support your rivals who will then depose you and take up the debt owed
That seems like a very unreliable strategy.
it's the same strategy the CIA uses with extremely high success rate
Also I think this has historic comparisons to the feudal world but I could be misremembering
Memory hole'd.
Some say they contract the faceless men but I tend to think they just finance opposition and political threats to whoever owes them money. They likely wont get the money back but at that point it's about sending a message
Beyond the godawful cringey writing and non-existent internal logic, the real let-down of this ending, is that it really feels like there should be a point to it all but instead we're given a baffling mess. There should be some kind of a message to be extracted, surely? We've seen the horrors, bloodshed and backstabbing of 8 seasons of people trying to control the throne, so what exactly does this emphatic conclusion of the magic omniscient cripple getting crowned king tell us? What's the fricking point?
