Re-watching that glorious Tyrion/Dany scene.
Yeah, I didn't think we'd see her again yet at all until next season.

Bran can look into the past and tell people about things he couldn't possibly know before hand. I think it would be pretty easy for him to convince people.
Oh man, Lady Mormont basically shaming the shit out of three grown men was probably one of the best moments of all the best moments of this episode.
Man, all the transitions were on point this episode. The only weird one was Bran/Meera/Benjen. I assume he dropped them off like an hour or two's walk from the Wall/Castle Black or something cause lol @ asking Meera to drag Bran around back south. Weird they just had a shot of trees it seemed and not of the Wall in the distance.
I think he is gonna Stark his way through life and she is gonna have to be his Littlefinger/Varys character.

Im trying to imagine a fate for Jon other than death.
What if he becomes like his uncle? Or becomes the three eyed raven? Basically living forever, somewhere alone. I mean, it seems insurmountable to expect him to beat the Night King clean and live happily. Yet killing a character twice doesnt seem as impactful.
Or maybe he can get all the plot armour, and we can all accept it because we love him too much

Dany + dragons + unsullied + ironisland ships + master ships converted + dothraki + dorne + tyrell
Vs lannisters
Lol maybe she will go mad and light all the wildfire. "If i cant have it, noone will! Hrmph"
Now with the North taken back. What will little fingers next plan be? I mean he wants the iron throne, not winterfell so i dont think they will off jon. Theyll just use the fuck out of him...
Going to be so fucking interesting. Balish on that love note man. Fuck!

This has been addressed a dozen times in the past few pages.
The timeline is not 1-1. Some things are shown months earlier. The order of scenes is for storytelling, not pure timeline.

Littlefinger only cares about sitting on the iron throne. Whatever will get him there is his motivation.
"Littlefinger would see the realm burn if he could be king of the ashes."
Because he realized what a failure he is as king. He was an absolute wimp. The death of his sister, doing nothing while his wife and mother sat in a cell, his mother's walk of shame, accepting the faith and then having it literally blow up in his face, along with most of the people he cared about. We also have to assume his cat ran away from him, too. The boy's life was tragic.

Little Finger gonna go find Euron is my guess.
Euron vs. Starks
Dani vs. Lannisters
Meet in the middle.

Even though the Frey throat thing made sense, I hope Arya uses Needle to kill people more as her signature.
Leave your mark, holes that were left like fangs from a wolf.

I suggested earlier that if he did, and Bran warg'd one, then it'd be two small dragon's vs Dany's big one.
Or potentially all 3 vs whatever else.

it's called time passing. a pretty simple concept. thinking every scene happens sequentially is a fool's errand
At this point for Jon's story, I'm totally fine with him dying in the endgame. Perhaps Jon's true fate is really just to be one of or the leader against the White Walkers & die gloriously in the final battle.
yep
never made sense tbh
Ned was honorable to a fault, so that never sat well - the idea that he'd lay with another woman
So Cersei waited months to crown herself while wearing the same dress the entire time?
That thing must have been stinky.

Thinking of Lady Mormont, they do such a great job on this show casting child actors. It's kind of astonishing how often they get that right when lots of TV shows and movies mess it up.

Yeah I loved that.
There are tons of people who seem that way in real life too, but still cheat on their spouses.

Or Jon becomes the new night king to satiate the winter and returns to the north.

it's the final scene in the season. there is literally nothing to indicate when that scene takes place compared to any other event
regardless, who cares? it's something the medium demands. We can't have 2 seasons of filler every time someone needs to travel somewhere
Eh, he was honorable to a fault except for the one time that he cheated on some lady he married but didn't even know. A character having a slip-up isn't bad writing. It never bothered me. It is cool to see he was a solid dude after all though.

I am Korean.
Some people are desperate for Sansa to become a brilliant manipulator mastermind who comes into her own despite all evidence to the contrary.
She's more likely to eventually be forced into marrying Littlefinger sooner or later unless Arya kills him or something.

Let's take a damn moment to reflect on how Jon went from being dead in episode 1 to a king in the final episode. You talk about fucking progression.
Danny goes from being a captive to sailing for Westeros with the backing of the Dothraki, Dorne and Iron Born
Cersei goes from being a defendant to being Queen of the Seven Kingdoms
Arya goes from being a blind begger to a badass faceless assassin who avenges the Red Wedding
Sansa goes from a helpless victim to a ruthless savvy badass
And so many more. I fucking love you Game of Thrones

I think him just ending up Warden of the North makes a lot of sense for him.
He traveled back to Mereen by ship after he was finished in Dorne. The trip took however many weeks it normally takes and at some point after arriving back in Mereen the fleet set sail with him onboard.
The show just does an awful time illustrating the passage of time.

This, exactly.
Honestly, it looks more like she's going to be playing chessmaster against Littlefinger next season to protect Jon. He's not exactly equipped to go head-to-head with Littlefinger.

going to take a guess and say Dany ends up marrying Jon or Gendry. It makes the most sense right?
No... those are different storylines
See: The established language of cinema.
I mean really are you trolling? What are you looking for here other than a fight over something stupid? You literally cam here to just look for someone to bitch at?
Always liked that dude ever since Blackadder!
Holy crap I did not realize that was him!

It also makes him a huge hypocrite for doubting Jamie and treating him like shit for killing the mad king.
Because he expects Jamie to be honourable, yet he dishonoured Robert by keeping an heir alive.

So is Cersei officially labelled as the Mad Queen?

Eh, rooting for her is not what I really feel compelled to do when she sets a lady up to be raped for months.
Man such a great season finale. I don't normally care to immediately rewatch episodes but I definitely want to with this one.
Thankfully it feels like the North is ready to understand what the real stakes are. The major issue in Jon/Sansa's direct path being Baelish of course.
Oh and thank you whoever pointed out the Lyanna Mormont/Lyanna Stark connection. Mormonts must have been quite loyal to the Starks to give one their heir that name in memory.
And yeah, Dany making Tyrion her hand was so damn sweet. It was a great shot that unfortunately is getting drowned out by the insane stuff all around it.

He also cut a dude's head off for abandoning the watch which was kiiiiiinda overkill once we learned more about the watch.
