I think the obvious problem is that D&D's staggering incompetence becomes more clear over time, to the point where they don't even realise what worked and what didn't previously. Then heap on their arrogance and impatience pushing them to end things early rather than hand off the project to someone who could handle the last few seasons. I think it's too sad to get people angry, what should have been a legendary show was dragged down by the foolishness of two men who clearly should have left after season 3.

@@maestercraig3990 I wouldn't say that. He turned on the emperor and saved his son, who he had plans for, and still cared about, even if he was still a villain. Him siding with his son which he disagrees with against the emperor who was killing him does not make him an 'instant hero' in my book, nor do I think that is the rational way to look at it. Heroes and villains are rarely made in one act, at least until we get into the Dany level s08 sort of madness :)
@adrianbundy3249
@adrianbundy3249 3 жыл бұрын
To be fair, they were trying to set her up as being partially insane in the head over time. But they failed to develop that to a believable degree very badly by s08. And the sad thing is, I think D&D knew that this was the ultimate direction of the story from Martin for years before this. So them NOT doing that is to me, the cardinal sin of this. I can accept a GoT world where Dany snaps and becomes the mad queen. Martin even could, it makes some narrative sense. But as for the show writing? To know that is the story, even making your own story when running out of the in between source material, I think even a novice writer can do it faaaar more believably than D&D did. I cannot get my head around that. It's like they didn't care at all. Maybe it went down like Green said here, and they were simply too high on crack all the time to bother.

I mean, she comes off as a harsh ruler, but she surrounds herself with advisors of varied opinions and views and listens to them as well as to most the people she brings under her rule.

@@andrewdiaz3529 You are right, that it was not built up on her charecterization that much. But I remember saying that her being possibly crazy was built up, but not well. Always going back to the coin flip of the gods of the targaryan blood, being crazy or good, and having her slowly get more angry. That being said, that never translated to 'you know what, I am getting close to the point I might just murder a city', especially if not so recently, she was even advocating against using her dragons for just that purpose episodes before. But I was just pointing out they did try something, I could see them making that half-assed at best attempt, but the directors and writers of the show at the end were bad, and did not actually show her going fully crazy in a believable way. And this was unacceptable, because this was the planned direction of her character from RR Martin, I am pretty sure of it now. And it makes sense. But the D&D seemed not to give a shit about writing it in a way that made sense, sense Martin didn't write the books first to make that bridge for them, and they sure as heck seemed to bored to try and put in the effort before they cashed out and did star wars.

I can't believe that the Jim Henson puppet dinosaur show had the guts to kill off all of its main characters because they didn't take a threat seriously, but not Game of Thrones. Oh Cersei didn't want to volunteer her army to the "lets not die to ice zombies" cause? Two episodes later she's ringed in her castle watching the frost come in, cause that's what consequences look like.

They've spent years showing critics middle finger, why should anyone treat them differently? They were given options by HBO but they didn't give a fuck because they were done with the show and wanted to go to greener pastures. Well who would've thought rushing an ending to a huge TV show could backfire? I find it ironic that they rushed so much that Disney fired them.

One easy way to keep Dany’s character stay consistent (given the lack of build up to the mad queen) would be to have Dany attack Cersei in the Red Keep and accidentally set off a ton of Wild Fire (strategically placed by Cersei to take others out with her) so that Dany burns many in the city accidentally not in a weird fit of envy. Given her previous action/conversations in the season, like burning Varys/Tarlys (it’s not a lot to work with I know), Jon believes she meant to do it and has gone mad. Jon kills Dany but now it’s a tragedy, which an audience can invest in, with Jon’s honour being his downfall similar to Ned in season 1. Jon is then brutally murdered by Dany’s blood riders because actions have consequences in this show (Jon is aware of this and that makes his act more noble). It’s still a rubbish story (I’m not a writer for HBO) but it’s a million times better than what we got.

@@alaljarensi6990 "only to gain more power" there was nothing to be gained when she freed the slave cities after she freed the Unsullied. Her advisors told her how freeing the cities would result in more slaves following her exodus which would mean more mouths to feed. The slaves she freed outside of the Unsullied are not fighters. Also, her riding out of the gates of Meereen to meet the sick and starving (against the suggestion of her advisors) won't gain her any power. Staying in Essos for as long as she has to try and stabilise Slaver's Bay (however successful or unsuccessful she may have been) didn't really gain her power either. And way before all of this, she gained no power when she took the women Drogo's bloodriders were raping under her protection. Considering all the introspection she does and self-awareness considering her age, she does seem to be more "benevolent" than other characters in the series and she's one of the few with bigger goals of helping others which contrasts other characters who are mostly just playing the game of thrones. Is she always effective and "good"? No. But George does not write 100% good characters anyway. Furthermore, I would argue the show actually painted her as being worse than the times she was "bad" in the books. Like, most people always point to her Quarth speech about burning cities to the ground as an indicator of madness or evil, but she never said that in the books. I also remember George saying in a con once when asked which character of his would be a good president in modern times, the only two characters he mentioned were Tyrion and Daenerys. I would say George is actually more partial to depicting Daenerys in a positive light in his books compared to Dan and Dave in the show.
