Tbh it was predictable, don't get me wrong the aesthetics of the episode were dope - the cinematography, pacing, sound design etc were all amazing, but the battle's storyline itself, was predictable. I knew Sansa sent for Littlefinger's army & I knew they'd show up just in time to win the battle. I knew her brther would be invincible in battle..lol. Shit I even knew Sansa would feed that fucker to his dogs. Actually I'd have been surprised if it played out differently.

Yep. Storyline was predictable but even so, WHOAAAAAA!!!!! The battle sequence was amazing, and we finally got to see the dragons kicking ass. The dialogue between danaerys and asha/yara was lolz.
I wonder what the season 6 cliffhanger is gonna be...

Or Daenerys boarding ships. OR POSSIBLY RED WOMAN HODOR REVIVAL (?) Agree 100% with Schad about the predictability but god damn if that wasn't an epic episode anyways. You can put that entire war scene against any war scene from a movie, easily.

for sure it was the best depiction of battle i've seen. i mean how stuff happened can be criticized, like oh lets just watch 1000 pikemen encircle us and not try to cut them off. but prior to the knights of the vale, when everyone was squished together with no room i couldn't help but think of the battle of cannae when hannibal slaughtered 70k romans, pretty sure it was livy who described the fact that the romans were so packed together they suffocated eachother standing. jon climbing up through them for breath brought it to mind
word about the predictability, i knew the vale would come, but i didnt think it would be that desperate. jon is supposed to be robbs rival. the young wolf, who was undefeated on the battlefield. at least for awhile i don't remember if he actually lost a battle. but either way i didnt picture jon throwing away the lives of his entire army because he's mad about a brother he never really knew. i was kind of hoping he would charge them DOLO and get murked for it. lmao. but word was fucking crazy. i wouldnt put it past them to tie everything up in the last episode and have the last 20 minutes be all cersei, in a lead up to her nuking kings landing, and them NOT showing the nuking. basically season 7 starting with kings landing going up in flames, and daenrys seeing it from the sea or some shit. because she's basically aegon reborn. she has the giant dragon in drogon. she'll make her own queens landing. but season 7 should be her, and jon rallying everyone, and slaughtering those too dumb, in a lead up to season 8, where they should spend an entire season on a battle against the white walkers. question though because i don't remember? did mance rayder have the horn of winter or whatever? in the show? because what the fuck happened to that? if the nights king gets it and blows it the magic in the wall is destroyed and they can pass it. i'm still waiting on the giant ice spiders but they'll probably leave them out. even in the books i'm pretty sure they just ride zombie horses, its just old nans fables that mention them. but yea i expect to see sam, maybe arya, bran, more of winterfell/sansa/littlefinger/jon, maybe some daenerys, and cersei getting wrapped up/put on track to end the season then another long year until next season with any hope the next book will come out before then, and the book will cover more and go further but i doubt it on both accounts.

Best GOT episode ever too IMO. And to all the book people. I don't care how vivid your imagination is there's no way you can see this type of awesomeness in your mind based on words on a page. BOTB is the perfect example of why the show is superior

I'm going to wager there will be deaths in the final episode seeing as that has been the result of the last 2 seasons to close out.
Im positive you will see the tower of joy, and that is a pretty much a good bet on what will be the closing scenes of the season. There are some interesting rumors about Rheagars harp being in Lyanna's tomb and that being part of what is used to prove his lineage. I don't think Jon specifically will find out, but i think the audience will find out and get confirmation on R+L=J Its also a possibility that Arya gets involved in some revenge on the Frey's and the BwB and the hound interrupt Walders wedding. Maybe even get to see LS finally make an appearance. It will be interesting to see if Cersei actually loses her shit and burns down Kings Landing, and its very possible that Tommen dies... thus completing the prophecy told to her. This could also be the end scene as well with Kings Landing burning and a winter storm on the horizon hence the name of the episode. Im not sure we will get to see Danny leave just yet or the rumor of the wall coming down so early. That would be a lot of time to waste for the final showdown in essentially 1.5 seasons or whatever it would work out to be. Gotta give some time for Jon to rally the northern houses and to make a pact with Danny for the final confrontation with the WW. The timing would be off for them to breach the wall this early.

i read there are 7 episodes next season and 10 again for the final.
which makes me hope that 7 are consolidating the realm for the threat and 10 for facing the threat.

The books are epic in a different way. And more consistently epic. This episode was spectacular, but most others I wouldn't watch again. I would/am read/ing the entirety of the books again though.

One episode left, so they still have a chance to swerve or suprised us. Some of both Sansa and Ramsay's dialogue hint they she's preggers. That may be revealed next episode, that's my guess so far. |
