I'll watch the sequels if they get great reviews. I doubt they will.

Maybe you only get fireproof if you do Targaryen incest. Was Daeny's mom the mad king's cousin or something? My geek level isn't high enough to hold that knowledge.

Daenrys couldn't control her fire and blood after losing dragons, Jorah and Missandei. She became mad with vengeance and wielded power recklessly.
That's the part I think most people missed.

People didn't miss it at all, also throw in being a little jealous of how liked Jon was with knowing he had a better claim to the throne than she did...they just thought there wasn't nearly enough time to show her losing that control over those things. Also the fact that the moment for her to snap and totally lose it was when she...wins? I agree with Lithose or whoever that was saying the whole writing of the surrender and bells ringing was just handled poorly given that is supposed to be the moment where Dany loses control and decides everyone must burn.

He didnt burn with fire, he burned his hand on the hot metal...sort of like Dany being fireproof but hot water in a tub bothered her in season 1

The main problem I had with Weiss & Benioff's writing, compared to GRRM... they didn't stray outside the safe zone.
They wrote spectacles before substance.
We waited 2 years for these final 6 episodes.
Season 7 (7+8) has been a 3 year ordeal by itself and they didn't do anything shocking, other then be shockingly bad.
They also refused magic as much as possible even though leading up we had a lot of magical storylines: Arya, Bran, Red Woman, Necromancer, Dragons/Daeny, Night King, White Walkers, Children of the Forest, etc etc etc.
Why couldn't they incorporate a bit of Magic in this finale? They excluded every single magical element except for Dragons & the 1 episode with the undead. WTF.
It basically tells me these 2 guys have no imagination and didn't want to invent up some magical elements to complete any of those storylines, so they kept it as grounded as possible.
The scenario above where Jon could be immune to Drogon's fire, then Drogon bends the knee and Jon is Azor Ahai, could have been a bad ass moment. Lots of other scenarios that could have been absolutely epic if they had any imagination whatsoever.

Missandei shouts dracarys before being beheaded. Lol how random it was she decided to go on a burning spree, wtf were they thinking.

And she meant burn women and children and not Cersei/The Mountain who were killing her? I mean there's a massive gap between yelling dracarys while you burn Euron's fleet to the waterline and take out the Red Keep with the Queen in it versus actually winning and having the city forces surrender and just murdering a couple hundred thousand innocent people.

yea, i mean Jon was like 1ft away from a 3000f flame that melted iron in a matter of seconds, but then his clothes really should have been synged off

She wasnt. She was guarded by Drogon. John the only one who could have walked in.

Agree on Tyrion. But Greyworm can't kill Jon because Jon is Dany's consort.
