I remember the Sopranos ending being a bit " Is that it?? " at the time of watching but after time it got better the more you think about it.

Journey's hit playing while all the family arrive then the screen goes blank.

I watched it all for the first time about a year or so ago - all I knew of it was everyone slated the ending.

I went into it with very low expectations but I thought it was a tremendous ending.

"“At the end, you probably don’t hear anything, everything just goes black,”

Everyone's entitled to form their own opinion on it, doesn't mean we're trying to be hip or cool if criticising. I never moaned in seasons 1-4, and during seasons 5-7 although some things didn't sit right, the overall story and filming was still at a high standard.

My problem with it is how it's gone away from what made it unique in seasons 1-4 in particular, and then the way they have just changed characters and their motives for this season, and even done it from one episode to the next. They aren't impressive twists or shocks, they make no sense. The inconsistencies are poor as well. Like the Dragons being an easy target one week, and then untouchable the next.

More examples... Jaime surviving time and time again when he was certain to die. It started last season with Bronn saving him and that fight with Euron where he got stabbed and then somehow came back even stronger was ridiculous. Cersei is the most evil character on the show and would never surrender, and turned in to a blubbering wreck in a pathetic manner before her death (I still think they will keep her alive for the next episode somehow).

Jon Snow was built up to be the leading light and has been made useless since episode 3, they then bigged up Arya who suddenly gave up on her mission of 6-7 seasons just off one conversation with the Hound, and after braving the Battle of Winterfell to kill the Night King. Loads more problems than that that have already been pointed out.

Out of interest, what things did you like about the episode?

The best thing I liked about the episode was just watching it, same thing I’ve done with all of them.

If you analyse every little thing, you’re going to find things that don’t make sense. This is because it’s a fantasy series.

There’s a fella who can see into the past and the future, yet he sits there quietly. One of the main characters was brought back to life by a witch, the same witch that got pregnant with a demon, who then went and killed a king. There’s dragons and zombies. There was a fella who could put other peoples faces on and turn into them, he then taught a girl half his size to the same thing; but on putting the face on, she grew to the same size as the person who’s face she had. There was a fella who came back to life several times and could set things on fire by touching it, there were giants, and a fella who ran a distance in the space of a few hours that took a group of men days to walk.

People can’t wait to watch it and get online to tell everyone how bad it is, if I thought that I’d not bother watching it.
 
It's still an absolute lie that he's finished books 6 and 7 though. No idea why the guy would say that.

"I will, however, say for the record — no, THE WINDS OF WINTER and A DREAM OF SPRING are not finished. DREAM is not even begun; I am not going to start writing volume seven until I finish volume six"
Hang on. You are going to trust the word of a guy who wrote the Red Wedding???!?

Brave move!!!
