Game of thrones season 8 [contains spoilers]

The word translates to "Dragonfire" in High Valyrian; it is the same word Dany uses to signal her dragons to fire upon her enemies. In this case, the word is a final utterance of allegiance and support to her queen, knowing full well it will be her last. It's not a far stretch to assume Missandei's last word may also be a call for Dany to destroy Cersei in the same way as she has the rest of her enemies

though how did she expect danny to hear her from that distance :confused:
 
Surely dragons can fly up pretty vertically then come back down again in a way that those shooters wouldn't be able to follow?

Danny was able to dodge them when the ships all fired at her dragon. The other dragon was already injured and was taken by surprise.
 
What a load of thrown together shit that was. I know they're rushing towards the end, but seriously, would a struggling and depleted army not send scouts ahead who might, I don't know, report back that the fucking massive fleet of enemy ships now comes with fucking massive crossbows on the prow? And that's not even getting to Bronn using the teleport or everyone instantly finding out Jon's hot gossip. Just skip to the end already.
 
i have to say, I feel sad when the animals die on this show. Dragons and Direwolfs, but feel nothing (except the red wedding) when the humans die.

Not unreasonably, as he was several thousand foot up in the air and several miles away from the ships responsible.

Dragon death is sad but they need cersei to have the upper hand at this point of the story so killing one of the dragons makes sense.
They can't make it too easy.

I don't get the fuss about the direwolf at all. I'd forgotton all about them.
 
Euron is gonna save the day for the North.

When he realises the kid's not his, he'll ally his fleet/army with the Starks and Targs, and maybe even be the one to kill Cersei.

Can't see danny having euron as an ally after he shot the dragon.
 
Euron is there to take the throne for himself/the iron bank. He’ll support Cersei until it serves him otherwise. He’s not very nice really
 
but her brother was not a true targ as he burnt to death. So, it was most of her life after his death
Targarians aren't all fire retardant. Dani is apparently special if not unique in that. One of their ancestors for example committed suicide by drinking Wild Fire.
 
That scene with Bronn was one of the shittest yet.

Just waltzes in to Winterfell with that stupid fucking crossbow and walks into the room where the two brothers are sitting on their own chatting. Then strolls out again.
The history between all three of those characters was completely ignored.

Why didn't she just go around them and burn the shit out of them from behind. Would that be too easy?
Same reason that she didn't just burn the army of undead instead of letting her armies charge them and be killed.
 
I liked... Bits of it. John's speech, the Farys and Tirian talking politics again. The building resentment of Dani.

Disappointing dragon demise. Neither of them got so much as a counter strike. Drop Dani off and fly round the back of Yoran's ship Bron's bit seemed slightly out of character. He's a mercenary of course but he seemed particularly pissed off with Tyrian and Jamie, on a personal level. I supposed it could be argued he's just fucked off with the whole thing but he could have just killed them and had Riverrun. Bron of previous seasons would have cheekily suggested they might like to make him a better offer not be all fuck you and fuck you too about it. Not a great position of strength, considering he's up there on his own if they decide he's priced himself out of favour.
 
Everyone seems to have forgotten Danny's comment to Varys. That she will kill him if he ever betrays her. He will betray her and will met a most horrible death.
 
My doubtless totally wrong prediction for next ep:

Pyrrhic victory for Cersei - Dany captured, dragon dead or captured (because, let's face it, Qyburn would not miss the opportunity to do experiments on the last dragon), but Kings Landing and ships burned to shit, maybe Euron too.

Various people en route with various vendettas.
 
Reckon at some point in this Cersei will get to gloat at the Northern bunch 'Oh, and btw, saving us from the White Walkers - no one gives a shit. The official story will be that you lot killed each other off in some stupid feud about who'd be King of the North so no one who matters will we even ever know about your sacrifice. PS, My plan was awesome.'
