Do not buy into the hype of S8

As you may all realize by now, S7 was a garbage season with isolated moments of awesome. It is painfully obvious that D&D can barely dress themselves, much less create quality programming, without a firm guiding hand from GRRM. S8 will be a fantasy version of the Avengers MCU movies.
Everyone will die, but it will all happen so quickly, no one will care. They have saved everyone thinking 20 main characters dying in one battle will have the same, or greater, impact of Hodor's or Ramsey's death. They are wrong.
There will be awesome fight scenes that will fill your brain with eye candy, but won't matter one damn bit in the end. Think of Dany's glorious gold wagon train attack, it was glorious, I wet myself with excitement when she came flying in, but when it was all over, nothing had changed. No one of consequence died, no territories exchanged hands, nothing. And after the sugar rush ended and I changed my pants, I was rather bitter, because there is no fucking way GRRM would write a battle scene like that.
As far as I'm concerned GoT ended with S6. S7and S8 are just shitty post scripts to a once great series. I have no interest in S8, don't care about the characters anymore, or the ending D&D have planned. I'll just wait for the books...
