      I’m still so angry about the shows fumblingly hollow relationship to the supernatural. It’s almost sitcom-ish: someone does something that existentially + epistemologically shatters the status quo in one episode? Totally forgotten by the next!

      We know there are gods and they respond to human requests & intercede on their own whims. Where were they? We know there are more dragon eggs in the world, where are they? We know there are more faceless men. We know there are more witches. We know there are more wargers.

      The thing that’s so narratively appealing about creating a fantastical universe IS the world-building (and its extrapolation)! In a world where X exists, how do people—and their stories—change?

      It is BAFFLING that Tyrion asked Jon that question about the afterlife! Your world has zombies and white walkers and face-stealers and ghosts and DOZENS of gods, how do you not have some baseline conventional wisdom about the state of the soul???

          This show doesn’t deserve the benefit of the doubt, I don’t know why I’m giving it any.

          Screw food I’m gonna go write a high fantasy epic that doesn’t hear the sound of itself choking on on its own dick and insist it’s opera

          Everyone always makes fun of fantasy + fantasy fans by saying how low the bar is and my god it’s now even lower

          That's exactly what I kept saying about the whole episode. Do some crazy supernatural shit to end this thing!

          Right? Seems like there were a lot of other things much more baffling than this.

          How are the gods in that universe thematically different than faiths in ours? Do the zombies imply a spirit or afterlife beyond just a mindless return of the corpse?

          I agree with the premise that this season was bad, chunky, had rigid low fantasy dialog, but I'm interested in learning more about this specific criticism?
