The screenwriter opened his eyes and finally stopped dying casually.

I finally watched the latest season of Binghuo two days ago. Different from the heart-wrenching expectation of chasing dramas, the feeling of watching them together is a suffocating pleasure, but there is also less continuous excitement.

This season should be the first episode that has not yet published the original, and Mr. Martin's writing speed has finally been overtaken by HBO. It is precisely because there is no comparison of novels that the screenwriter's willful adaptation will not be criticized, and it is not convenient for the original party to tangle too much on the details. Perhaps also because of the less shackles of the frame, the whole story seems more relaxed and comfortable.

Although the first eight episodes were in a dull and depressing atmosphere, the outbreak of the last two episodes swept away the haze. Those who are loved by us have been abused by Martin for so long, and finally see the dawn of turning over in the TV series, and the once irreversible deaths of the good characters finally have room for manoeuvre, which is really grateful.

It turns out that no matter how complicated human nature is, no matter how intricate the plot is, as an audience, what the audience likes to watch is the good guy beating the bad guy. Therefore, the pain in the early stage is just a foreshadowing deliberately set by the creator, so that the emotions of the audience and the protagonist can accumulate at the same time, so that when the counterattack will burst out greater energy and pleasure. Well, you win.

In addition to the excitement of getting what you want, this season also comes with a touch that was rarely seen in previous seasons. Three favorite scenes: Sansa and Jon's reunion after changes. Looking at each other in this life, facing who ever thought, and meeting everything is like a dream.


James and Brienne silently look away. There is an identity beyond friendship that resembles love called confidant.


A brooch presented by the dragon girl to the little devil to represent trust and respect. A man who always used cynicism to mask integrity and kindness finally found a king who recognized him and respected him.


It is said that there are still two more to the finale. Suddenly I felt that as long as the series continued to maintain this level, and as long as the characters I liked didn't die casually, it wouldn't matter even if Martin didn't publish the book.

Yes, I am that shallow.
