Hi GOT fans!
Warning: possible spoilers ahead! So, if you've been watching everything up to this point, you've probably envisioned a completely different ending for Seasons 7 and 8. Would you fix anything? Anything at all?
I think it feels kinda forced to go kidnap one white walker to show to Cersei, come back to King's Landing and then take almost everyone on the show north to fight the White Walkers and then go back to fight Cersei in King's Landing.
Here's what would've made me sit at the edge of my seat. You know in Lord of the Rings at the end when you see back-to-back scenes of Aragorn's men vs. Mordor and Frodo/Sam vs. Smeagol in the fire? You know X-Men Days of Future Past towards the end when you start to see juxtaposed scenes of the past and future towards the end? All of that adds tension to the audiences and creates a lot of suspense. So my idea would've been:
After kidnapping the white walker in Season 7 have Cersei (who has nothing to lose at this point and could give a hoot about the magical personification of winter) lay a trap for everyone so that those who attended the meeting arranged by Tyrion, including Daenerys and Jon Snow, cannot make it back to the north in time to fight. Have everyone else (including Sansa, Arya, Theon, Brotherhood guys and Melisandre, etc.) fight off the White walkers and their undead dragon and beasts up north and make it a climactic ending by making us watch two different struggles simultaneously.
I would have Sansa killed off in the north. Tyrion should definitely be doing something witty and not hiding underground. The GOT animals should never have been written out so lazily and we should've even seen some lions. I'd have had Cersei set several lions on the dragons and her guests during that star-studded gathering and yelling, "I am Cersei Lannister, ruler of the seven kingdoms. Hear me roar!" Have the Mountain put dragon Rhaegon down before it gathers its bearings and then Snow and Daenerys attempt to escape on Drogon, but they get shot down by one of those javelins and fall into the sea (to return later). Have Cersei apprehend Missandei the interpreter but not kill her (which would be a big no-no) because she knows she can use her to take control of Daenyer's armies pretending to be her through the interpreter and creating confusion and death between the Dorthraki and the Unsullied.
Finally, once Arya makes it back, have Jaime killed by Arya posing as one of her long dead children. Then comes Clegane vs. the Mountain. Have Cersei take Jaime into his hands weeping, then Arya sticks her with the pointy end after saying, "A message from Bran, your highness. When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die." Have Dany lay waste to King's Landing but lead up to it. History does repeat itself sometimes. Have Jon Snow struggle with the idea of possibly having to kill her. In the end, have Snow and Daenerys rule the Seven kingdoms together (awww!!). The end! Sorry, I get carried away sometimes.
What do you think? Is the ending feeling a little off?
