The battle at Winterfell is a perfect microcosm of the issues. Even apart from the shit artistic work (everything was so dark you could barely see what was happening), almost every scene made no sense:
I can't think of a single good choice in that episode. It took one of the greatest series of all time, and made what is essentially the climax look worse than a B-movie from the 2000s
I agree. And there's tiny tweaks that would make it less shit, like the dothraki charging when they weren't supposed to cos they're the dothraki and that's what they do. Arya could have used the faceless man shit to sneak up on the night king. DONT PUT THE VULNERABLE PEOPLE IN THE CRYPT FFS etc etc. Those small changes would make it a bit less bad... still bad, but not as abysmal
And just like that you've already put more thought into the episode than D&D did!
Ha! You're right I have. They clearly put zero effort into it
