You need to chill. What do you normally do, take your shoes off? Do the Evangeline Lilly eye and ear thing? What ever it takes to calm your aspi self, just do it and don't come back till you're semi functional again.
>>
>>87212955
Okay, sweet pea, I posted a video that you are evidently not watching in which the man who wrote the episode clearly and unambiguously that you are wrong. Maybe in the books it will be different, but Dan fucking Weiss just stated that the dragon was able to knock down the Wall not because of its magic, but because of its size. Watch the video. It takes less than a minute.

Best time to ever strike if you're gonna do it pretty much since the various wars have drained mostly all of the armies of Westerios and everyone still alive hates each other to much to make a united front against him.

If theres not a certain amount of time that someone can have been dead before the NK can't resurrect them then the white walkers could literally just stroll south and gain 10's of thousands more from every battle.

>>87212222
They have giants and mammoths though. They could have just used to Giants to rocket wights over the wall. They could have used the mammoths to ram the wall until they made a hole or at least ram one of the doors. It's an even dumber plan to wait for a dragon because now they have competition. If they crossed before they would instantly win.

Wights only die with fire, dragon glass and valeryon steel. Landing in snow shouldn't kill them. If may break them into pieces but they'll just crawl and nibble people to death.

No, after you kill the people at that watch station. Turn them into wights. Open the door and let the rest in. Problem solved.If they can swim and connect big ass chains around a dragon and pull him out of ice, they can unlock a door.

They destroyed it with dragonfire, which is clearly magic. The wall is magic, you just need something magical to bring it down.

It only makes sense if Bran is the NK. Personally I think (hope) that the NK is a red herring for Cersei/Euron/Mad-Dany
>>
>>87217242
I marathoned 1-5 and started watching week to week with season 6. They traded quality for hype. They used to be able to put 2 characters in a room alone and have a fierce war of words. Scenes with no physical action, just verbal sparring were amazing. Now it's gone to the old tv plot of "punch it till it's dead". Literally, all their problems are gonna be solved in the exact same way. Stabbing and punching. Shows for meat heads now.

You're probably right but I'm still hoping for a S8 twist end villain like Euron. Pretty much the only way I'm ever gonna keep my HBO sub/buy GoT after its over.
>>
>>87217277
Wight Walkers are also magic though. Children of the forest are Magic. Bloodraven was magic. Cold hands were magic. None could break past the wall, but dragon fire can? If dragon magic is so powerful that it can easily break the wall, how can the Night King one shot a dragon?
>>
>>87217258
It's a magic barrier built into the wall. By destroying the wall you destroy the barrier.

Maybe wights couldn't even touch it without being killed, so they weren't able to destroy it until they got a dragon who could deal tons of damage from a distance.
>>
>>87217277
At no point in neither the books nor the show has it been established that Dragonfire would negate the magic in the Wall.

> you just need something magical to bring it down.
This is a rule you just made up. And again, the man who wrote the episode is literally shown in a video that aired immediately after episode saying that the White Walkers just needed something big enough to take down the wall. Why are you denying this simple reality?
>>
>>87217421
Ice magic isn't effective on an ice wall. He needed fire magic.
>>
Why did the NK not just start building ships a couple centuries ago?
>>
>>87217413
They introduced the 'Kill a walker and all the wights die" thing this season. I"m assuming that was the only purpose of this season as well as to put all the "good" guys on one team. They could have done that in 3 or 4 well-paced episodes, instead, we got what we got. If the Night King doesn't speak or do something other than start a killing spree and die, then this entire show was a waste of time. I don't own HBO. I just download the episodes individually as they come out. It's the only thing on HBO I watch and they don't care to write good content so why pay for it?
>>
>>87217463
You say that, but I'm pretty sure Bengin told Bran that the magic goes deep under the wall. So destroying the top part of the wall still wouldn't let the wights through.
>>
>>87217463
>Maybe wights couldn't even touch it

Maybe not. And maybe dragonfire could break it. And maybe ravens can fly at a rate of 800 miler per hour. The problem is, none of this was established. If the White Walkers can't touch the Wall, then the show should fucking say so. It's not hard. The viewer should not be forced to invent ways for the show to make sense.
>>
>>87217518
Wasn't that dragon using ice magic though? The wall wasn't melting, it seemed like it was breaking apart like it was being pelted with high powered ice.
>>
>>87217538
Yeah. Ships of ice. Ice floats on water. They could have made it past centuries ago uncontested.
>>
>>87216717
Oh right, they could've build boats to ferry their army just past the wall. Why didn't they do that ? It seems they have some advanced ice tech, I'm sure they could've built a bunch of boats for their UD army. Never thought about that one.
>>
>>87217546
No, the show is good. You're just stupid. Clearly what is happening is that Quaith and the Children of the Forest are manipulating time, which explains why everyone seems to be teleporting. The Night King knew that Dragonfire negated the magic in the wall. They said so in a scene I made up. The show is perfect. Flawless. The best thing on television.
>>
>>87217623
Exactly. Even better, show and not tell. Like when Sam killed that Walker with dragon glass and they learned that dragon glass can kill wights. They should have had a Walker or wight chase someone up to the wall and deconstruct like at Bloodraven's cave. They had several opportunities to do that.
>>

So are the White Walkers. If it's as simple as, "a magic thing is needed to break another magic thing" then what is the fucking problem?

>>87218399
It took out a full grown dragon in one shot. Are ice javelins hard to make? I imagine with an undead army that never rests you could easily put them into an assembly line of making/throwing ice javelins. Might take a little while, but it's better than sitting around for 1000 years
>>
>>87218485
a ballista (scorpion) can take out a dragon, ice jaelins are probably just normal javelins made of ice

even still if you throw them at the wall im pretty sure they would shatter, i mean all these questions will probably get answered in some way next season, GRRM said that alot of the universe and how it runs will be explained near the end, like why summer and winter are not a fixed period of time
>>
>>87213303
So, if it is a magic barrier why then build the physical wall???
>>
>>87218691
keeps the magic in, keeps the dead out
>>
>>87218399
What you said was that magic destroys magic. But now what you're saying is magic only destroys magic when it's big enough. If that's the case, why not just abandon the whole plot device and assume that the Dragon was able to break the wall because it was big (which is what the guy who wrote the damn episode said)?
>>
>>87218741
I don't understand what you say..

Nor the dead nor the ww can't cross the magic line, like in that cave the got destroyed when they crossed it
>>
>>87213350
wow garbage rankings
>>
>>87218873
Then who did that zombie get to kings landing? Sure looked like it passed through.
>>
>>87218917
So, that's it, there is no magic barrier.
>>
>>87212222
According to Benjen, the magic ensured that "while it stands, the dead cannot pass". Presumably, this magic was what stopped the dead from going around or over it the way the Wildings did. But no one ever said that it made the Wall indestructible.
>>
>>87218990
The magical barrier surrounding the cave was undone when The Night King marked Bran, so the same thing might have happened to magic protecting the Wall when Bran crossed.
>>
What happened to the Horn of Winter that Sam found?
