It would have been crazy to think back in the early seasons the Cersei Lannister is "lower" than some random ice zombies they sometimes showed once a year.
but now in season 8 you want to act like the NK is more important because of story progression, but its kinda silly to say that.
In a way Cersei IS game of thrones in a nutshell. her baddassery kinda faded in recent seasons and she isn't as hot anymore but in her prime she was the ultimate representation of the show.
She had some of the most iconic lines in pop culture associated with her:
power is power
Lannisters send their regards
shameee
tell Cersei it was me
in totality it makes sense though, just its not as apparent because of where the progression is now.

Cercei carried the show? Shes a decent actor but who the fuk was Tywin, Varys, Tyrion, Littlefinger. Those guys carried the show when Ned died you troll. Who the fuk was Joffrey?! The actor who played Jofffey stopped acting cuz he was so good at it and people irl started hating on him. Brb cercei carried the show gtfo
If this show had any continuity the would have been murdered long ago both by friends and enemies when she commited worse horrors than the mad king which was blowing up the sept

And as for Ygritte (Jon was 17 at this point), I always found the “You know nothing” was just her being playful and also in many situations a defence, a counter argument when she didn’t know what to respond. She would have followed him anywhere.Yes, Jon without a doubt has earned the right to sit on a throne, or even the Iron Throne - but at the core of his character, he doesn't want to. He never wanted to. Thats the struggle he fought all along! As they mention multiple times, people tend to gather around him, he is a natural leader, people easily trust him, because he is trustworthy. He didn't want to be the right hand man of the Lord Commander, but he saw something in him. He didn't want to be the next Lord Commander, but a (thin) majority of the Black wanted him to be just that. He didn't want to be the King in the North, but Lady Mormmont and the rest made him anyway. He doesn't want the Iron Throne, but Varys (and probably Sansa) wants him to.
It's - considering how much they otherwise suck - very consistent writing by D&D when it comes to Jon.
The discussion between Tyrion and Varys is key, because Varys reminds the audience that Westeros is a patriarchical society -the male heir gets to sit on the throne. Jon - even though one generation removed from the Mad King (Aerys II), has a stronger right to the throne than Daenerys, who is his daughter. Tyrion is trying to save Dany, summoning very progressive ideas like "who gives a fuk about the cock between his legs", while Varys wants her removed and summons the more traditionalist view that a man will have an easier time ruling given the Westerosi culture.
Varys says Jon won't marry Daenerys because they are related and that while Daenerys (as a Targaryen, where that is common) has no problem with it, Jon would not feel the same because Northeners usually do not marry incestually. And ON TOP OF THAT, Daenerys is too strong for him, in terms of her will. Daenerys is certainly far more driven and ambitious than Jon. He does wants right and in front of him (lead men, save lives, fix the wrongs he sees), Daenerys always had big goals (breaker of chains, conquering Westeros, sitting on the Iron Throne). And since you bring up Ygritte ... didn't she kept telling him that he knows nothing ... and even shot him with an arrow? Jon is not a dominant male character.

Yes, Jon doesn’t care about the Iron Throne and never asked to be King in the North but it’s not true he never wanted to be Lord Commander. In Season 2 Mormont asked him: “You want to lead one day? (Jon nods) Then learn how to follow.“ But it seems writers want us to forget about this.
If you want to call it patriarchy because males are always first in the line to the throne OK, but Jon still earned the throne more than Dany. Everything Jon ever did was for his people including fighting and giving his life, everything Dany ever did was for herself, including freeing the slaves which she only did because she needed men to sacrifice their lives for her.

that was the beginning of the downward trajectory.

Sounds like preferential treatment. Plenty of people beheaded in the show were bound.

tywin wasn't really a main avatar audience character although he was a badass fan favorite.
the avatar for the audience in that scene is Cersei she is the one audiences reflect on. From her POV. Tyrion is similar, so is Arya.
The whole Cersei and Jaime incest thing was also a huge pop culture motif bigger than any of those other characters, who all happen to be her father, brother, son, and assistants. Many of which are elevated as characters by the authenticity of her performances.
She was in the first pilot episode to the end, unlike other characters.

man season 8 has been a clusterfuk
building up NK for 7 seasons so he could nullify Dannys army before facing the final boss (Cersei), all within 3 episodes was dumb as chit
brb season 7 -1 dragon
brb season 8 -1 dragon + 80% of her army

Like in 2019 its actually racist NOT to kill a black character because they are black, and after all the sjw groundwork thy laid down just to have audiences be so ignorant to still not give them the benefit of the doubt.
If anything its game of thrones style to kill people who you dont think should die, so if she was a black character its like reverse plot armor.
It would have been more racist to keep the two "minorities" alive with a boring send off just because they are a supposedly protected class.
that's racist to say missandei can't die because she is black, what a dumb person who ever said that.
and not only that, the way it happened, who she was, Danys best friend and confidant for a long time, is gonna trigger some big thing. So its the main character of the final plot using her death as a catalyst for the ending.
In other wards she cares for missandei so much she's gonna do something crazy...
but still people are so dumb.

Go back in time or stay in the present and ask anyone in the world if Cercei carried and was the face of the show compared to other characters at the time when Ned got killed. Lmao uwotm8tywin wasn't really a main avatar audience character although he was a badass fan favorite.

Probably won't be a big issue though, just like the rape scenes in S1. People complain but then get over it.

If the leak that someone randomly post on another forum is true, then I'm annoyed. But I have no idea how they are going to go from to that ending in 2 episodes.

what people fail to realize is GRRM gave D&D the major points to finish the show with Cersei being Endgame included.
NK and the White walkers were never endgame for GRRM.

Cersei panics and orders Qyburn to "burn them all" with wild fire but the Hound kills him on his way to find the Mountain
Cersei flees with Jaimie to the bedchamber, where Arya pulls of Jaimies face and kills Cersei
at this point everything is burning and the Mountain goes to kill Arya but the Hound overcomes his fear and runs through the fire to save Arya and Cleganebowl happens
Dany continues to go nuts and burns everything
After the battle she accuses Sansa, Bran, and Arya of treason. Jon the reluctantly takes claim to throne just to protect his family

Jon then gives up the crown and leaves Sansa, Gendry, Davos, and Tyrion to split up the Kingdom
Jon then goes north and reunites with ghost at the wall, where Bran is using magic to repair the wall

a 1 v 1 battle with Jon would have been too predictable. He would have needed help.
If it were all the major characters attacking NK people would complain because it was "too much like Avengers vs. thor" or any other movie with a powerful villain.
I think NK had to be taken by surprise and with his guard down. That's the only way he could lose, is by beating himself
I know the past few seasons havent been as good as the first 5, but, these are the last few episodes. People seem to complain just to complain rather than sitting back and just enjoying it for what it is.

Can people who want spoilers just go post on reddit and leave this thread alone? Eventually they will "theorize" about the chit they already know to seem smart or whatever the fuk their motives are.

Spoiler!
Spoiler!
Dany sees that Varys is trying to betray her and puts him and Tyrion on trial. Varys tries to say Tyrion is the one doing the betraying but then Dany tells Varys that her "little birds" heard the conversation between Varys and Tyrion and then burns Varys alive
Yara Greyjoy attacks Eurons fleet as Dany distracts Euron with the dragon. He is thrown overboard and is then harpooned by Yara
The Golden Company break their contract on orders by the Iron Bank and go against Cersei
Cersei panics and orders Qyburn to "burn them all" with wild fire but the Hound kills him on his way to find the Mountain
Cersei flees with Jaimie to the bedchamber, where Arya pulls of Jaimies face and kills Cersei
at this point everything is burning and the Mountain goes to kill Arya but the Hound overcomes his fear and runs through the fire to save Arya and Cleganebowl happens
Dany continues to go nuts and burns everything
After the battle she accuses Sansa, Bran, and Arya of treason. Jon the reluctantly takes claim to throne just to protect his family
Jon kills Dany and Drogon himself, like Ned always did
Jon then gives up the crown and leaves Sansa, Gendry, Davos, and Tyrion to split up the Kingdom
Jon then goes north and reunites with ghost at the wall, where Bran is using magic to repair the wall
Jon then heads north to find Tormund but instead finds a fresh spiral symbol made from wildling bodies
