Game of Thrones (HBO) TV Show • Page 413

Just realized the first like 20 minutes of next week are going to be sad as shit.

 

I hope the NK knows we appreciated his artistic interests and his sense of style.


Also that smirk was the worst part of the episode. It’s such a specific human emotion to show for him and seemed super out of “character”. The fire sequence was awesome and then that just killed how interesting it was. I almost expected him to go full Madison Montgomery after it happened.

 

At least he didn't talk haha

 

Arya in the library is the new velociraptors in the kitchen.

 

This entire episode was wickedly similar to how they shot and played out the battle in DH2. Was fully expecting a moment with Bran and the NK where Bran wargs into him and we get a better understanding of the White Walkers, a la Harry taking Snape’s memories to the pensieve.

 

I said the same thing! Lots of moments reminded me of other movies/shows last night. More than usual I’d say. It did seem weird that the wights appeared to have super sensitive hearing when I don’t remember that being established before. That scene was still fun though. The part with her hiding also reminded me a LOT of Haunting of Hill House.

 

Folks gotta stop bringing up endgame in non-endgame threads. Idc if you spoiler tag. I was busy this weekend!

 

Lets just hope that Sansa doesn’t use that dragonflass dagger right to Cersei’s chest, otherwise we may have a Night Queen on our hands

 

Obviously it would never happen, but when they did that shot of Sansa and Tyrion a small part of my heart stopped thinking they were about to do a suicide pact.

 

Still dreading the Jon is a Targarayen fall out we will have to deal with. Not interested in it at all.

 

That's what I thought at first too when she pulled out that dagger.

 

Gotta say. I was pretty disappointed with a majority of the episode. Succumbed to a lot of the same issues they had in the last season. Reactive. Plotlines feel pasted together. Inexplicable decisions. A tonnnnn of deus ex machina.

First episode was strong, the second was phenomenal. Just thought this was mid tier thrones.

 

It was in spoiler tags AND had a warning it was endgame related. It's on you if you read it.

 

So, the part right before the NK gets stabbed, and he and Bran are just staring at each other. Are they communicating? It seems like a long time to just stand there doing nothing. Maybe he was explaining some stuff to Bran. Hopefully that's talked about in the next episode.

 

Okay RJ is amazing. And these people are here.

 

Agreed that last week was the best of the three without a doubt.

 

Last week was "better" writing wise for sure, got a lot of great character moments and stuff, the type of character centered stuff that this show has done really well at times throughout its run.

Hard to beat this weeks in terms of adrenaline/atmosphere/overall experience. My heart was racing lol

 

Wish all the white walkers would've actually been part of the fight.

 

Yeah this is a legit (but small) complaint for me. I would have liked to have seen them come in and start jacking people up, maybe even have Brienne or Jaime or someone kill one.

 

The amount of people throwing shade at this episode and comparing it episode to The Last Jedi on Reddit is hysterical to me, like that's a bad thing.

 

Did I miss where a bunch of Dothraki died in previous episodes? I feel like their numbers were pretty small.

It is a baffling tactical decision to go charging in to the night against the undead. But that's par for the course for fantasy military decisions. Helms Deep having a huge drain in the outer wall? Dumb.

I thought it was pretty interesting that Grey Worm allowed his force to be used as just a way to slow down the undead to give them time to light the trench.

 

Yeah, someone with a Valerian steel sword should taken one out

 

Huh that brings up an interesting thought. They made such a big deal about having everyone getting dragonglass weapons so they could fight WWs, and nothing really ever came of it lol.

Unless the dragonglass is supposed to be special against the wights too? I might’ve missed that.
