I have enjoyed the series a lot but I was a bit underwhelmed by the last episode. I guess my expectations had been raised for something a little more to happen when it all seemed very ordinary. Although I guess any dreams were crushed in the previous episode.
The final season was disappointing to me in that I felt they rushed to the end. As you say,they got from A to B instantly. The plot was OK, but the pacing deeply flawed. Contrast it with the final season of Breaking Bad, where they took an exquisitely long time to converge on the inevitable conclusion.
Is it just my Sony telly and set up, or have others found the dark scenes a bit poor quality ?
One scene where Jon fades to black joined with a black fade to Dany. My screen had a bad time handling that without fuzz. Although most other scenes seem HD.
So I've been holding out hope in my stupid nerd heart that somehow, some way, George R.R. Martin would finish the goddamn books, get them scripted out, and the ENORMOUS ensemble of actors from the final season would take time from their billions of different projects to fix the Kings Landing size hole in our hearts from when Benioff & Weiss dracarys'd the greatest show on TV with HBO fitting the bill because they know they fucked up.
Which is why I am going to be happy that at the very least we got someone to rewrite the entire 8th season, allow us to properly witness Dany going from beloved breaker of chains people called Mother to the Mad Queen without it taking place in roughly two episodes, maybe get the littlest bit of insight into the White Walkers during the Battle of Winterfell (even if we can see as much in an audio podcast as we did on our TVs that fateful night), and fixing pretty much everything pointed out in this 25 minutes of hell.
So here is the 10 part rewrite/play/podcast for anybody that wants to listen on Spotify, Apple Podcast, or YouTube. I'm not sure why only Episode 1 appears on Spotify when I embed it and Episode 1 appears at the bottom of Apple. But the entire 10 part series is there if you go to the respective sites.
I'd love to jump into this delicious fan fiction with two feet, but I don't have the heart to do it after just getting burned by Thrones in real life. But if this writer and these voice actors actually crushed it to the point Thrones diehards give it a thumbs up, they deserve Emmys, a boatload of cash from HBO for fixing Thrones as much as someone could, and the Star Wars franchise that Benioff & Weiss for kinda salvaging what should have been a glorious ending to the greatest show of all-time.
There were quiet moments of dialogue, clamorous waves of wights, ice and snow, an epic death blow, and of course fire (of the dragon and wild varieties). Here, supervising sound editor Tim Kimmel, re-recording mixer Onnalee Blank (dialogue/music), and re-recording mixer Mathew Waters (effects) of Formosa Group in Hollywood, CA, and sound designer Paula Fairfield discuss their approach to all of those. They also talk about the battles, the dragons, and what this series meant for them personally.
Another difficult dragon scene was when all the wights gang up on Drogon. He had to do this shimmy and shake them all away. He was in pain and you really had to hear that. You hear a bit of his pain sounds when he gets hit in the loot train sequence of Ep. 704, but not to the extent that you hear him in pain this season.
The sounds that were most useful for the dragons were rhinoceros sounds. I recorded three kinds and ended up using the black and white rhinos for Rhaegal, for his big barrel-chested moans when Jon is flying on him.
The VFX team creates extraordinary visuals and having these images to work up against makes me search every frame and beyond to try to find sounds to contextualize the dragons, to make it feel like you could reach out and touch them and smell them. One of the hallmarks of Thones is that it always feels very real because of the detail, sonically and visually. It had to be that way in order to work.
What about the wings? Were those animals, too? Or canvas and fabric?
TK: We did a lot of give-and-take between the music and sound design. Some moments, even though there is music there, the sound design will take over and vice versa. There were times when the music was doing a better job of telling the story and so the music would carry the moment.
PF: I did a general pass on the wights of their movement and vocals. I assembled libraries of bone movements and different things that we had for them and put that into Sound Particles to make movements and a general, wide sense of them being everywhere. I made beds of sounds, of them moving across the screen, back and forth, and all around. There were bone body movements and feet in the snow and vocals. It was done in layers and layers.
Then, there were the individual voices. The way the VFX were coming in I did a first swath pass on all of it and then Tim asked for more. Every time new picture came in there were more wights. It was crazy. But, at one point I had to move on to the dragons. It required careful coordination and Tim had to move all of these pieces around so we could get through the work and have enough time to develop ideas but stick to this insane schedule. We had to work around bottlenecks with VFX. All of that detail in the VFX we needed to see in order to cut sounds for it.

OB: Grey Worm is such a strong character in Ep. 3. Matt [Waters] and I talked about trying to create some sort of space around him, which is challenging to get during a big moment. Anytime Grey Worm is on-screen, his dialogue is in every speaker. His breathing is in every speaker. We took down the sound effects. I treated his dialogue differently than all the other characters in the show just to create a sonic space that is a bit different even if it is for just two seconds. We thought it really helped because the episode is so loud that it was something for the audience to grab onto briefly before we are back in it. It was a nice change of pace.
OB: That may have been one of the most challenging parts of the mix because it was crazy. How do you play it all at once with all the detail? Matt did a great job of making a lot of the sounds staccato and bright so things were way more in your face then they were in the beginning part of the battle. It made it feel claustrophobic and like there was no end in sight.
Every now and then, I would open up the debris and fire and make it real. One of the things that worked out for me in mixing it this way was it allowed me to enhance moments with the Hound facing off against the Mountain. I would take these concussive hits and add delay and subwoofer to them in order to musically and intentionally hit moments when the Hound and the Mountain square off. This way it sounds organic but creates what I thought to be moments of great intensity.
I purchased a Roku stick just yesterday, January 11th 2023, and I also have had this problem already. Watching American Pickers and it changed from English to Spanish half way through. I can see this problem has been going on for a couple of years already. I am thinking I must take the Roku stick back for a refund and change over to a Fire Stick!
I then switched to another room without a Roku, so I opened up a Chrome browser in Windows 11 and logged into the Roku channel and it picked up where I left off. I turned on English Closed Captions at this time I think. Again, hours of streaming without incident, but then it started to pause during the episode. I was having some other weird internet problems on my phone as well, but it was late so I went to bed for the night.
This evening I went back to watch the Roku Channel on my Windows 11 machine, but remembering the pausing issue, I opened it in Microsoft Edge and started watching instead, and watched for about 5 minutes without incident.
Then I noticed the "install Roku as an app" prompt, and chose to install it as an app. It picked up where I had paused it in Edge (with a few minutes left of Reno 911! Defunded Season 1 Episode 8 "Beige Lives Matter?") and it completed that episode in English.
