The pop culture world just had a stretch of days unlike any other, thanks to the highly-anticipated arrival of Avengers: Endgame and Game of Thrones‘ “Battle of Winterfell”. Based off of social media, the two fictional epics have garnered quite a lot of opinions.

Endgame, which debuted in theaters on Friday, provided the conclusion of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s “Infinity Saga” of movies, and has already accumulated over $1.2 billion at the global box office. And Thrones‘ “The Long Night” episode, which premiered on Sunday, smashed plenty of fans’ expectations as well, becoming the most talked-about scripted TV episode in history.

With two massive narrative events happening in the same weekend, it was pretty safe to assume that fans would have a lot of feelings about whether one was better than the other — or if both completely annihilated their weekend. Here is a round-up of some of those responses.

Years of Payoff

For many of us, this weekend was huge.

ENDGAME was the culmination of over 10 YEARS of movies.

Game of Thrones was the the culmination of EIGHT years of “winter is coming”

This is not just some shit you can jump in to…
