Alternate ending GOT

Published May 23, 2019 · Updated July 6, 2022

Hey Guys,

The season finale was a little disappointing. First of all, it was just too tidy. Secondly, it ended like any good Disney ending usually does with happy feels. Lastly, did we all get what we deserved? Not just as fans but did the actors, film crew and anybody that touched GOT over the years actually walk away feeling as the show ended in a way that makes logical sense. I suppose as logical as a show with fire breathing dragons, magic, and dead men walking can be! Anyway, I am not here to discuss my disappointment in the episode but to offer an alternate ending that I feel would have been way more appropriate. Why not destroy every house/person including the North? Show the stories of our favorite characters, tidy up anything that needs it and then unleashes chaos. Why not preach the lesson that war and power lead to the ultimate devastation and loss of life. I would have ended it with Drogon killing everyone except the wildlings because they were already free from the structure of nobility. My very last scene would have had the Wildlings leaving the wall sans Jon Snow with the last frame panning to the green leaf as a sign of hope and new beginnings. It would kind of much the idea that free thinking men live while the followers perish. That would have been more reminiscent of a proper farewell to such an amazing show. IMHO
