The Last War

I honestly really thought it was going to end where they used the device properly to go back to the time before the world was destroyed. Before the nuclear bombs hit. That they stopped it and then it skipped to 100 years later where all of them were born on an earth that never ended with some form of knowledge that they knew each other... idk that's how I would of ended it at least.

I was afraid that my favorite show will crash-land in the final episode, because the whole season was a somewhat weird. It stranded in the previous episodes a lot from surviving and unbreakable human spirit from the earliest seasons. But the final episode swept me off my feet, and left me in tears.

A great finale, a bitter-sweet ending, where not every piece sits in the spot, but it shows excellently overall human spirit that conquers death, as it is composed from love, friendship, devotion and faith in the humanity itself, not the higher beings.

It is also a realistic ending. Some of us will find our well deserved heaven, some of us will choose to live in the limbo, and some of us won't make it, and will continue to live only in the memories of our dearest. Either of the ways, it is natural and very much human. This may seem unfair for some, but this is - a life, in its essence.

I couldn't wish for more, this is the best message one entertainment show can deliver.

The end was too simple,i expected something WOW about that puzzle.

Overall I like this finale I thought there were some very good aspects. My problem is with the entire season as a whole let the finale down. It felt like the entire season had no real direction and so when the end came they just had to throw everything together in hopes that it would stick. I just can't believe that a show that was based in science ended with transcendence it just felt like a cheap cop out to say yay everyone is now a being of light now no pain and death anymore. The message I got was yeah the only way humans can live in peace on earth is if there is only one small group left, people can't put aside there differences to live in harmony and if they do they have to transcend because it would never last. I did like the end where Clarke's friends did decide to stay with her on earth and not transcend it was a fitting end to end where they started. It did feel hollow in my opinion with out Bellamy there to be honest the events of this episode made his death feel even more cheap. I didn't care if there was a romantic aspect or not but it would have been nice to see him at the beach scene reuniting with everyone. Also my issue was Clarke who is supposed to be our main character maybe had what 10 mins of screen time this entire episode I have no problem with letting the other characters shine but in the last episode I feel it should be about our main character and her journey to get there and to be honest it was an issue that plagued the entirety of season 7. I did find it weird that the grand scheme of things that more people wouldn't have chosen to return instead transcend, what has surprised me was that madi decided to transcend and not stay with Clarke choose to be with kids she know for what maybe a week or two instead of someone she's know for over 6 years. I also can't believe Clarke wouldn't have been more upset by it considering all she had done this season and previous seasons to keep Madi with her. Overall this season was a disappointment it had no clear direction and it felt like the characters lost who they were half way through. It also felt like a lot of personal issue related to the cast and crew shined though this season which is a shame considering it was the last season and all they had to do was keep their personal business out of it for 16 more episodes.

I've seen this ending before in other shows, and was just as let down then. Season 7 storyline was bonkers. The writers had 16 episodes to work with, and decided to piddlefart around for half of them. They focused on dumb filler situations like the planet Nakara and the whole Sheidheda plot when they had some really interesting ideas they could have been exploring. Instead we are left with many... MANY plot holes, with a rushed faux happy ending that loses it's charm the more you think about.

The HEART of the show was really missing this season, especially in this episode. The show used to be great, but like GOT & Lost I'm left with no desire to rewatch after seeing how it ends.
