Kit Harington says the Game of Thrones finale is "disappointing" | PopBuzz Meets
We asked Kit Harington aka Jon Snow to describe the Game of Thrones season finale in one word and now we really wished we hadn't.

Pod banged the whores so well that they gave him his money back in season 2 or 3

OK, another nit pick point.....
You know your enemy has a highly effective naval commander. You COULD march your entire force to the destination. Instead you put a lot of them on boats to go to a second place to wait and attack from there.....

Sounds like a creepy place. Most of the Essos shit is basically Lovecraftville.

What I don't get, is that Pod drank when Tyrion said "You're a virgin", but wasn't there an episode where he was hanging out in the whorehouses and didn't get charged because he had the biggest cock they'd ever seen? Pods Rod or some such?

It was just a nervous tic. Like "don't look at me, I'm just over here drinking my wine"

As awesome a scene as the acquisition of the Unsullied was in the books - consider for a moment from someone else's point of view. Dany reneges on an arms deal by killing the dealers and then uses her stolen weapons to commit genocide on uninvolved civilians.
"It's ok because they were bad people" is the kind of excuse you hear from insane dictators, and doesn't really get you out of anything. Book Dany is near the Stalin end of the despot dial, heading toward Hitler.
I agree show-wise the turn toward villainy is totally unearned though.

That's not how the drinking game works - the challenge was that Brienne is a virgin - issuing the challenge to the whole table would be a recipe for quick death by alcohol poisoning ;p

Her "last season ever" was a call back to her saying it 10 times previously so she could avoid having to give away anything about what happens to her character. You guys should work for a cable news network with the way you're selectively sharing interview clips

Uninvolved civilians. lol.
I find it hard to call any wealthy person in Astapor an 'uninvolved civilian', but book Dany is also like what, 13 or 14 at that point? And even if she was channeling some Joffrey in the books, as you pointed out they made the sack of Astapor VERY different in the show and she is unquestionably the good guy when she unleashes the unsullied against the city.

She ceased being a hero the moment she set foot in Westeros to bring war to the 7 kingdoms all to claim her crown, with thousands of casualties to follow. She is a conqueror, not a savior at that point. This is not including all the death behind her.
She kills and burns to get what she wants, and what she wants more than anything is that throne. She has sacrificed the lives of her friends, followers, innocents, enemies, and even one (first loss being different cause) of her beloved dragons in pursuit of that goal. There is absolutely nothing in her character in the show or books to demonstrate that she wouldn't murder every single fucking person around her to claim and keep that throne. She's just going to stand aside after all she's been through? Yeah, no. In the game of thrones, you win or die.

dany is absolutely the good guy in her mind. and the scenes with her had generally been done from her point of view, or at least from the point of view from the people who benefitted from what she was doing. that in no way makes her any less culpable. ANYTIME there's an issue with dany, her response is scorched earth. the people around her beg for restraint and sometimes she acquiesces, sometimes she doesn't, but she always looks annoyed about it.

She even refers to Jon's claim to the throne as "taking what's mine" or something along those lines. She doesn't even care if she's the rightful heir to the throne anymore

He wasn't drinking as part of the game at that part. He was drinking because he knew that was the wrong question to ask and it wasn't going to end well.
