Game of Thrones (HBO) TV Show • Page 19

Tyrion unshackling the dragons though! That's the episode stealing scene for me. My heart is still racing from that.

Fuck Ramsay. I immediately went to the "they didn't bring him Rickon, did they?" with the next episode preview, too.

 

Well, Walder Frey was in the trailer so he's coming back (plus his son Black Walder), I don't really blame them.

 

we coudn't handle two ashas

 

I feel similarly. And then, on the other hand, it sort of reminds me of actual history, where seemingly disparate events congealed into seismic shifts in the status quo. A lot of this episode seems to be either the shifting power relations when the new subsumes the old or other, individual paradigm shifts that thrust characters on to different levels.

 

I think we're gonna see some more location centric episodes as this season progresses, but probably more like Hardhome where it's half sporadic, half singular over where we'll see ones like Blackwater or at the Wall.

 

Really enjoyed that episode. Tyrion and the dragons was a tense scene.

 

It blows my mind how fast every website posts a giant spoiler on their front page.

Just finished the ep. P good overall. People are so hyperbolic with their reactions.

"THE BIGGEST ENDING SINCE THE RED WEDDING." Okay guys.

 

While I'm not excited about a lot of the current storylines, I can't wait for the next episode's flashback.

I'm pretty sure it's when Ned and his men went toe-to-toe with members of the former Kingsguard. It's my favorite thing from the books that I haven't seen on the show. There's a cool youtube video that recreates it with static drawings:

 

Perhaps I'm an idiot for it but they really convinced me for a minute with that ending that
Melisandre's attempt to resurrect Jon might fail. I know we all thought that was going to happen but it was never a given to me since the last time we see him in the books he's down.

Now I wonder if he'll be the same Jon we've known so far.

 

And when frankenmountain absolutely crushed that dude's skull on the wall.

He would have taken down that group of the King's Guard with ease.

I was sure Ramsay was going to kill Roose at some point that season, just didn't expect that to go down the way it did.

Also, could Tyrion be any more of a complete badass? He just runs shit.

 

My dad thought it was cheap and didn't like it. Lessens the impact of every death from hear on out because they could just be brought back to life.

 

Bob Strong is a Kingsguard, those were Lannister soldiers.

Tyron is going to be riding one of those dragons by the end of the season.

my guess is that Ramsay's treat is Theon. as much as I would hate to see that happen.

 

Why would he be different, though? That other guy was brought back multiple times, and he was seemingly unchanged.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Tyrion is only the second character on this show to physically touch a dragon (and not be roasted or eaten immediately afterwards), right?

Was really, really, REALLY nervous that Jon's resurrection was going to come at the expense of Ghost with how often they kept panning back to him. Right before Ghost perks up, it looked like he stopped breathing. Thought they were going to then pan slowly to show Jon breathing slowly. REALLY happy they didn't go that route.

I know we only got 5 minutes, but I loved everything with Brienne/Sansa/Theon/Pod. The stuff with Sansa and Theon was especially good. Brienne and Sansa talking about Arya made me smile so much. I really want to know what a reunion between those two would be like given how they didn't depart on the best of terms, plus with Arya training to let go of her past completely.

We watched as a woman and her newborn child were eaten alive by a pack of dogs yet more people made a stink about seeing an elderly woman naked, lmao.

 

he was brought back the same way we saw someone revived back in season three. who had been resurrected 5 times before.

 

Keep your dad as far away from the books as possible then

 

haha yeah I had to explain that to him. I think that's one of the main reasons why they didn't/haven't done Stoneheart. Would just be too much resurrection.

 

I love how the flashback was similar to the very first winterfell scene in season 1 with lyanna playing the arya role.

I also have a feeling next weeks will be even better.

 

Robert Strong smashing that dudes head lol loved it

 

Melisandre said she had never done one of these resurrections before, so she could have done it differently than Thoros of Myr has done so many times for Beric Dondarrion. Could've even performed the ritual incorrectly but somehow have gotten it to work anyway.

She also admits right before the resurrection that she has recently lost some faith in the Lord of Light. These resurrections are basically just prayers that get answered as far as its been explained to us, so the Lord of Light may exact some kind of revenge on Melisandre's lost faith by bringing back a very different Jon.

Not sure what will happen, but it certainly seems possible that Jon could be different than when we last saw him.

Also, for book readers I don't remember how Catelyn Stark was brought back to life, but Lady Stoneheart (Catelyn after being brought back to life) was VERY different than Catelyn.

 

Best show on tv right now imo

 

Best episode in a long time imo

 

Great, great episode. Several oh shit moments throughout that didn't feel unearned.

 

I don't think I was quite as impressed by this episode as everyone else. It was good, but not on par with the best of other seasons.

Also, hopefully Bronn reappears soon. With the Hound gone and Tyrion being wildly less interesting when estranged from his family, the show needs some charisma.

 

Also, I read a very, very interesting speculation on a GOT fan site a few months ago.

It involves inferences from the books and other areas, so possible major spoilers.

It speculated that the Hound was revived by The Seven and is to be used in Cersei's trial by combat against his also-regenerated brother
