I don't to derail the thread but Kennedy, nor the directors dictate the story. The video doesn't describe how the franchise actually works. Kennedy can say, 'this doesn't work, change it' but this not her position. Running Lucafilms =/= creative director. The Lucas Story Group is what drives the creative narrative of SW stories. Abrams, Johnson, the DnDs, any author, comic book writer, video game director, must stick within the bounds and direction set by the Lucas Story Group.

He was never some big villain. Great villains are the ones who you can't quite piece together. Take the heath ledger as the joker in the dark knight. He was mysterious and it was hard to piece him together. What were his motives? Since it was almost impossible to understand him, it made following him enticing. The night king was literally a human sacrificed to become a magical necromancer whose only motive was to wipe out humans. That seems pretty black and white to me. He doesn't have a personality, he doesn't say anything and walks the straightest line out of any character in the show, period. Now I can admit some of the fan theories out there for him making him 1000x more appealing and exciting, but those are theories.
So yes, if someone is butthurt about how the nightking died and how the show ended, that's 100% their fault for reading too much into fan theories.

I enjoyed it, but then again Bronn survived everything and got his castle so I'm happy that my original favourite from S1 didn't die off like so many other people's choices.
Expecting an Arya the Explorer spinoff.
I guess at the end of the day, the real song of ice and fire was the game of thrones we made along the way.
The thing is, what made the Targaryen's special wasn't the name. It was whatever hold they had over dragons.
If we skip forward a half-dozen generations (or more), and Drogon's been able to repopulate the dragon pop from wherever he took off to, it's entirely possible that the Wildlings come south with a bunch of Dragon riders at their head. That there are no official records to prove that there's a direct Targaryen lineage would be kind of beside the point.
Doesn't matter for this story, but could matter for the future.
Were the unsullied warned about the butterflies in Naath?
