That is the crux of the problem with this bad writing. It would have ended the existential threat that the Night King represented to the 7 kingdoms if the characters had acted rationally. That would have only left Cerci as the protagonist in the last season, which just isn't threatening enough for a whole 6 episodes in season 8. |
The director of the episode addressed the criticism of the speedy back and forth:
“We were aware that timing was getting a little hazy,” Taylor told Variety. “We’ve got Gendry running back, ravens flying a certain distance, dragons having to fly back a certain distance…In terms of the emotional experience, [Jon and company] sort of spent one dark night on the island in terms of storytelling moments. We tried to hedge it a little bit with the eternal twilight up there north of The Wall. I think there was some effort to fudge the timeline a little bit by not declaring exactly how long we were there. I think that worked for some people, for other people it didn’t. They seemed to be very concerned about how fast a raven can fly but there’s a thing called plausible impossibilities, which is what you try to achieve, rather than impossible plausibilities. So I think we were straining plausibility a little bit, but I hope the story’s momentum carries over some of that stuff.”
