The reactions to this television show are a definite sign that the internet has made people feel like their opinions are more important than they have a right to. Enjoy the entertainment or change the channel. Write your own fricking show. Anything is more productive than having a temper tantrum because you didn’t like the way the tv show played out.

r/freefolk has had a spoiler summary pinned at the top for a month now (essentially everything that they mentioned was correct for episodes 2-5) but today they added a rundown of the final episode with more detail than they previously had.

You just had a temper tantrum on the internet about people having temper tantrums on the internet

I just checked out that reddit site...i really hope the spoilers are wrong. Dany should have torched the writers instead of king's landing. what a disappointment.

are the books as bad as seasons 7-8?

Nope. I just wrote my opinion about other people’s take on the show and the extremity of a lot of the reactions to it. I could give a **** if you agree with me or not.

Whatever became of Arya’s special weapon? Was she just fishing for D or did she really use it?

I think the white horse that Arya rode was the one that the gold company leader got knocked off of when the dragon struck. The horse got knocked down and probably injured which explains the blood when Arya found it.

At this point making any predictions that have any sort of thought or cleverness is totally useless. They’ve shown for 5 episodes they’re taking the most Bland and easy way out so I doubt that horse was from the GC. In their tiny minds they just thought “hey let’s stick a white horse here.”

I both agree and there will be some sort of half-baked wrinkle in the final episode that is supposed to be clever and isn't.

Shes been turning pretty power hungry for awhile now..and shes always had flashes of authoritarianism when jorah and missandei arent around.

Plus the whole mad king thing is in her blood. The whole "the gods flip a coin when a targaryen is born"

Agreed. I've been expecting Dany to do something bonkers for a while now. The show has been hinting at her possibly being crazy since season 1 and she's been outright trending that way for multiple seasons now. Her torching the city for no good reason makes more sense than her doing nothing.

Unless it’s all been some elaborate smoke and mirrors to have real spoilers leak and then throw everyone off of the true ending then you better hope it’s not mounted to a stud.
A logical explanation is that they filmed multiple endings to throw off the leakers. So while they may know what happens in other episodes, they might not know which of the endings the writers eventually settled on.

If THAT happens it will be the biggest meltdown in internet history. Fanboys will do to social media what Drogon did to Kings Landing.

You better go ahead and order your new tv now so it’s here after you toss your current one. It’s happening.

The leaker specifically mentioned watching the episode. So unless there’s different versions of the last episode it’s gonna happen like the leak says.

Or if you can't handle people's opinions on the show, you can stop reading them. See how that works?

Totally agree. If you can’t handle my opinion you can stop reading as well. That does work great.
Lol. There's a difference in not being able to handle an opinion vs simply responding to one. I don't care what you post. But you look pretty stupid coming to a thread discussing a TV show, only to complain about people discussing a TV show. I don't think you understand what message boards are for.

I was referring to the twitter freak out primarily but you do make a good point and I can’t disagree. Not sure how I’m unable to handle other people’s reactions. Seems like hyperbole but whatever. I enjoy discussions and is kind of a built in reason why were all here. What bothers me about all of this are the people making statements like I’ve invested so much time watching a television show and don’t like how it’s played out so therefor it’s the worst thing to ever happen. Again, hyperbole rules the internet and someone will post some snarky **** and feel like a winner. Personally looking forward to seeing how the show wraps up.

Fair enough. People certainly get over dramatic. I hope the show ends well.

Good god tell me this won't happen. If it does, the writers may be ejected from planet earth
