Heres hoping we get going in episode 3. 1 and 2 were the classic GOT filler build up eps which considering there are so few episodes this season is disappointing.

The entire Night King is already a bit of a lackluster final villain for a show that had many great morally complex characters. So far he is just a force of evil, like Sauron, he just wants to turn the world to shit, okay riveting.

Yea exactly, not to mention he looks like total crap, he's a million times less scary looking than Sauron or the Witch-King of Angmar or any other 'evil' bad dude....wtf is with that crappy spikey hairstyle and shit, he looks like a teenager from 2005.

Simply whatever I liked GoT for (didn't read books) vanished throughout seasons and ended up being classic TV series with shit tied to it: love stories and strong women to attract female viewers (both are series ruining things in all cases of TV series/movies I watched), characters that either don't die at all even in unrealistic scenarios or characters that die with their "mission" accomplished, sudden death became a rare thing: small finger death as a result of 2 strong females outsmarting one of the smartest GoT characters was a moment when I wanted to stop watching it lol.

If the the Night King is not a destructive for of evil after all, and he just wants to be with his woman, then why lock her away in the first place.

I thought it was established that the white walkers are an out of control weapon created by the children of the forest before being wiped out by the Andals

Having a boring Sauron-wanna-be would be fine if it was just a plot device, a means to make other interesting things happen. But the way they went about it is awful, everyone got together too easily with none of the good early season GoT drama, and the far bigger focus has been the battle with the Sauron-wanna-be rather than the human nuance of the other side. The entire Ice King arc has been so shittily executed, for 8 seasons he barely even existed, no one cared about him, then in a couple of episodes everyone just bands together and decides to fight him. Very abrupt and very unsatisfying.

[Sagar]

It is super dumb they have no motivations other than kill everything. It basically makes all that character growth irrevelent if they are now good guy heroes trying to defeat an unstoppable always chaotic evil

Their spaceship is buried below Kings Landing, they just want to take it and go home.

Going from a grey story, to black and white kill evil bad man you just inevitably lose something. Is this really the best that couldve been written? How about houses using white walkers for their gain somehow etc. Somehow weave it in into the politics. Nah fuk dat, our super heroes have to band together to beat the super villain, and can then settle their differences as they struggle together and form friendships. In the aftermath they decide that war is unecessary, and together they build a kingdom on rainbows and happiness.

I can pretty much guarantee that once the books reach the same point in the story, they're going to handle it infinitely better, and it won't just be a stupid LOTR helm's deep imitation. So it's not that the Others suck as a plot device, it's that D&D suck.
