This according to Sophie Turner recent interviews , she said some fans will be very happy with the ending and over the moon happy while others won't like it at all and fans will be divided .

Considering teleport Euron, how characters like Tyrion have become shit, and this extremely long hiatus, I start to care less and less about the last season. I'm really pissed about this huge delay. And I don't want to award them for it.

This doesn't surprise me at all. GOT's fans are VERY passionate and if it's not exactly what some want then it's going to be met with negativity. I'm sure I'll end up hating the end of it because I've honestly lost interest in a lot of the remaining characters outside of a couple. Also from my experience very few shows I really strongly care about stick a perfect series finale.

After S6, I don't really care how it goes but I want to see danidiots get their face slapped and rubbed in their own shit.

May be you can write a bit more in the same way.

I like your philosophical talks, Leo. May be you can write a bit more in the same way. "The more people you love, the weaker you are. You'll do things for them that you know you shouldn't do. You'll act the fool to make them happy, to keep them safe. Love no one but your children. On that front, a mother has no choice." Cersei to Sansa, S2E07. "People will whisper, they'll make their jokes. Let them. They're all so small, I can't even see them. I only see what matters." Cersei to Jaime, S4E10. "Queens must command respect. Kings even more so. Not just for their own sake, but for everyone's. The High Sparrow has no respect for kings or queens. No respect for anything in this world. He has no use for the things of this world. He wants to knock them down and replace them with what? With fantasies. With beggars in the street. With nothing." Cersei to Tommen, S6E04. I could have said all this myself. I wonder who wrote it.

Considering teleport Euron, how characters like Tyrion have become shit, and this extremely long hiatus, I start to care less and less about the last season. I'm really pissed about this huge delay. And I don't want to award them for it. Yes, they don't know how to write for Tyrion. The only good dialogue to come from him was used verbatim from George R.R. Martin's books. It's a shame Martin didn't stay on exclusively to write lines for Tyrion. He's really the only one who knows how. When left to their own devices, the show runners give us lines about cock merchants and nonsense like that... In terms of the delay, I'm sure HBO would love to release the season today and start recouping their very expensive investment. However, it's necessary for everyone involved to take their time and do it right. Of course, taking longer time doesn't mean it will be any better...not taking enough time often reflects in TV/film though. I hope it's good. At 6 episodes left, I'm concerned everything will be too rushed.

There is convincing argumentation that the "Battle of the Bastards" was botched as a result of time constraints. Either the Karstarks or Umbers had a different role to play at the end, as resolution to their ambiguous siding with Ramsay but that part fell off the schedule and was replaced by that longish, nonsensical montage of people fighting in the dirt. It was ambiguous that Karstark sided with Ramsay to help him kill his father (a weakening of House Bolton) and that Umber refused to swear an oath to Ramsay. Ever wondered how Jon's army, tightly surrounded by spears, was capable of turning into a stampede nearly trampling Jon down? Don't bother, none of that stupid episode makes sense when looked at with a brain instead of an emotion generator. There were hints of Manderly giving an important speech in the finale (announced in his casting sheet) but that was shortened and replaced with Lyanna Mormont doing the tough little woman shaming grown men, not only for the sake of the stinking feminist stance but because the Karstark and/or Umber turnaround and hence the secret northern move had fallen out of script. This is the kind of thing they want to avoid in S8.

And I don't want to award them for it. its not only the delay which i agree with you i think it sucks too , but its also the actors themselves when the most popular stars of the show wont even show up at events like comic cons etc.. shows lack of interest in their part i think and some comic cons i have watched some of them were really obnoxious to fans , i know some fans are not the most etiquette people either they shout things and can be idiots but i noticed in recent years the GOT stars have become stuck up when they show up at these events , they act they lost interest in the show too dont think it helps , maybe they too are not happy the show was going .

This is the kind of thing they want to avoid in S8. it really came a time i couldnt stand that kid ( lyanna mormont) im a female but i dont find appealing all that feminist crap . i liked how sansa called out jon on his decision not to punish or at least put some penalties on kardstarks or umbers they both betrayed the starks in my eyes , i mean i was just stunned at jons reaction making sansa sound insensitive or unfair-sansa didnt want to punish them personally like afflict pain on them ,torture or kill them , she just wanted to take away their power , land etc.. so they dont betray them again in the future but jon right away went into a righteous speech " the punishment for treason is death" she said nothing about death .

I don't know which camp I will fall into. But let's see. Seems they have done something horrible to one or two major characters and something great for a few other major characters. could be the recent spoiler about tyrion has something to do with it ,sophie gave the impression its very controversial and if that spoiler turns out to be true i think it will be one that will be long debated .

Daenerys and Tyrion dying is not going to please a majority of viewers. And if Jon dies too, for lack of sustenance from the Lord of Light or whatever brought him back, it will be an endless moaning. Remember, these three are the main popularity magnets, they are explicitly written with this purpose in the show.

IMO Out of the three mentioned Jon has highest possibilities surviving , if Dany or Tyrion die or both of them or three them Jon included just wait and see fans who worship then they will find a way to blame Sansa they always do.

I'm expecting a bloodbath in the final season so I'm guessing some fans will be pissed.
In any case, based on the tv series I've seen, divisive endings are common. It's not easy ending a tv show on a high note...
