A Song of Ice and Fire is one of my favorite book series, and the first 4 seasons of the show were amazing. It is an absolute travesty what those faggots did to the show. I was an idiot and still hoped that they would be able to eventually turn it around as each season the quality noticeably declined. And then Season 8 came out and crushed all of my hopes. Fuck Benioff and Weiss. I will hate them forever.
The harsh reality is that, hamfisted execution aside, a lot of the really contentious plot points in GoT Season 8 probably came from George, not from the Daves. Daenerys going full Richard III was almost certainly Martin's intention, and that bullshit about Bran becoming King because "best storytellers make the best decisions" is right up George's conceited, self-indulgent alley.
George rightfully gets a lot of criticism, but I could see all of those retarded aspects of the ending at least being built up properly if done by someone who cares. Granted, George himself probably isn't even going to do it, so eventually some other asshole will probably come along and try to accomplish it after his death.
True. He fucked himself over after the 3rd book by introducing way more of the world than he would ever be able to resolve. I wish he had just wrapped up the original story threads faster so he could go on to make endless Targaryan stories like he seems to actually like doing.
GRRM is also to blame for that one, though. Yes, Dumb and Dumber did make nonsensical changes, completely forgot about realistic travel time, contradicted events constantly and altered characters to be convenient to the plot rather than consistent. But GRRM had promised that the books would be done in time, so they wouldn't have to write seasons blindly. It's been over 12 years since ADwD came out, and there's still no evidence that it'll be done soon. GRRM made so many interconnected plots and characters with opposing motives that he himself has no idea how to end his series, hence why he's been hitting a wall for over a decade. Is it any surprise that the two idiots with a deadline and a budget couldn't come up with something decent?

I agree but George deserves blame for being too lazy to finish
