I've read (OK, listened to) the books, but can't see why this would upset them.

As a military history nerd, I was more upset by the tactics. What kind of spastic opens a defensive battle by launching a frontal cavalry attack in the dark against massed infantry? Amateur night.

Yeah that was stupid. They clearly hadn't studied the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. I was wondering if they got a bit carried away with the flaming swords.

Meh. The Dothraki were a bit shít anyway. I'm glad they're all dead.

The dragon use was shít, too. Just use one to keep burning the dead as they come on and have the bigger one offering top cover against the zombie dragon. Don't get lured out like spastics.

Also, thank goodness the dead didn't decide to launch a simultaneous attack on all sides of the castle and were happy just to attack the side where all the defences were

Frankly, whoever came up with the whole plan was a mong.

Dramatic license and all that but with the Night King’s ability to raise *all* dead at will, one wonders how the twenty or so good guys managed to hold off legion upon legion for quite so long.

Also, given this ability, you'd have thought some priority would have been given to the dragons burning the dead?

What were they complaining about?

Arya was always my fave character. wd the ninja assassin. Splintered the enemy good and proper. Like chucking a ring of power in Mount Doom.

I think a lot of people are complaining that it felt like a Deus Ex Machina ending, but what was anyone expecting?
