Too bad they didn't throw Cersi in the same cell as Margery. That would make for an interesting follow up episode!

I had watched all of last season except the season finale shortly after the season ended. I have yet to watch it and still have yet to watch any of this season. Somehow I've managed to avoid spoilers. Probably because if people bring it up to me, I tell them to shut it. Hopefully the season finale is amazing and so is this season.

Holy hell. How can they show a battle like that and expect me to be interested in anything else going on?

Top 3 episode of the whole series IMO. Even the stuff that wasn't Hardhome was absolutely incredible.

How valuable is Longclaw now that the dragonglass has been lost?

Wun Wun, Dolorous Edd, and Tormund all survived that scene. May be convenient but I'll take it.

That boat sure was moving slowly. Still faster than Gendry's rowboat, apparently.

Cersei drinking a puddle of water from the floor is a classic image. Also love how creepy Qyburn is.

Sansa discovering that Bran and Rickon are still alive is potentially game-changing. I bet Rickon comes back next season, although I'm still confused as to why there are only Boltons in Winterfell and no other houses/soldiers considering the upcoming battle.

Arya actually got something to do; that's a step in the right direction.

I'm actually impressed by how quickly Tyrion managed to woo Dany. I would watch an entire episode of him telling her about Westeros. I'm also impressed that Jorah didn't say "Khaleesi" once during that entire sequence.

Only disappointing thing: they mentioned ice spiders but there were none.

Given the gravity of the situation and its overall importance, I honestly thought they would save the WW stuff until the final season, perhaps even the final arc of the series.

I also found it interesting that in the same episode where Dany says she will "break the wheel" we see the beginnings of the battle for the future of all living things in the known world.

Suddenly the "Game of Thrones" seems incredibly petty and even pointless.

What an episode. Watched the Hardhome scenes twice, as those were some of the best sequences in the series. The Night's King and Jon Snow scene at the end of the episode gave me chills...

He was dead all along, and only the boy could see him.

So, in a world of extremely low level magic (by fantasy standards, and the staple of all fantasy, D&D) we have now been introduced to a character who can raise a literal army from the dead in seconds, with no limit on numbers, and not even as much as a ritual needed to do so.

If this were a video game or pen and paper, that guy would be banned for hacking or kicked out of the group for cheating, because that's not stuff gods do in most fantasy.

I truly see no way that humans can win this war unless we find out that the only reason they are marching on Westeros and the world in general is because they think all dragons are dead and dragons are the one thing that can stop them (or, ya know, make an army's worth of dragon glass weapons and such.) and this is how we get the long shipped marriage of Jon Snow and the Khaleesi.


I think a fair thing to throw out is this. Let's say Snow hurries to King's Landing with all his men and thousands of wildling refugees and gets a seat with the court and with the high sparrow all at once and tells them what's happening. Even with a thousand witnesses, do they believe? With Tommen as king, do they do anything? Even if Tywin was king does anything happen? This truly feels like a completely hopeless scenario.

I don't think there are enough fighting men in one place that we care about on the show for there to be a Trial of Seven. I could imagine Loras asking for a ToS if they had introduced Garlan and some other Reachmen. Them against the sparrows would make for awesome television.

Give me Jaime, Bronn, Ser Robert Strong, Ramsay, and three others that could fit the Lannister side

VS

Jon Snow, Jorah, Grey Worm, Daario, and whoever else as well for Khaleesi


Do we really need more?

(if you don't know who Robert Strong is don't worry, you will)


I also sadly think I know how this season is going to end, however if we go based on history, next weeks episode will be the most badass of the season.

(Not a spoiler ending, but with the fighting pits coming up soon I think I know what's going to happen though they could throw a huge curve ball as well)

I think Bran will be instrumental in defeating the Others (if it happens). He's being trained for something,
