I think most of the criticism of the ending, and of the entire season, for that matter, has been less about what's happened and more about the way it's all played out. My gripe with it isn't that it didn't end the way I expected - well, aside from the Bran thing - but that I don't think the...

Yes, such an important character that they didn't bother having him on the show for a couple of seasons. While I haven't read the books, I can see that ending working on the page, but not on screen. His character is entirely inward looking and the series didn't do a particularly good job of...

Apparently, the dragon majored in symbolism. I think it was in the same class as the white horse from the previous episode.

Except for those shots that took out the second dragon.

One of the interesting things about the series is that there aren't really any "good guys." There are characters who do morally questionable things, and others who do even worse things.

That would be strange, but the Star Wars movies aren't filled with hard R-rated sex and violence and don't take place in a morally ambiguous universe.

See, I disagree. I don't think it was vengeance at all, but rather a cold, calculated decision. Earlier, in the scene with Jon Snow, she says: “I don’t have love here. I only have fear.” She's come to believe that people will only accept her rule if they fear her, so she proceeds to destroy the...

While I still enjoy the show, my problem with both this season and the previous one is that the pacing seems way off. Some things seem to drag on, while others are rushed through. At this point, it feels like the writers are checking off plot points on index cards. The behaviour of the...

If that's the case, it was not at all clear. Again, poorly shot and edited.

Financial reasons, for sure. Artistic? I've never bought the excuse that something's deliberately confusing to put the viewer in "the fog of war." I just call that poorly shot and edited. Saving Private Ryan manages to convey the confusion of battle, but you can still follow what's happening at...

I watched it on a calibrated plasma in a dark room and I couldn't make out what was happening half the time. Now, I'm not sure how much of that was down to the way it was shot and mastered, and how much of that was the result of my provider messing with the signal. Either way, it was far too...
