Let´s be honest this episode was pure kino
>>
No. The Winterfell plot is god awful, Arya just turns evil in episode 5 and in episode 6 is threatening to kill Sansa?

The Dragonstone stuff was fine in inconsequential.

Wight Hunt was good besides Dany showing up within a few hours, and the ridiculous idea of the NK throwing a ice spear half a mile and 1 shotting a dragon. They should have had the dragon land to pick people up, and then be killed by a swarm of wights.


S02E09, S04E09, S05E08, S06E09, S06E10 and S07E04 were all better episodes by a clear mile.

The action was thrilling because, for once, it felt as though anyone could die if they slipped up. In BB for example, you knew Walt would not lose to Fring because the show would stop if Fring killed him. It could never reach GoT-level tension.

Game of Thrones is a pretentious thrill ride. It likes to think it's kino, and would love others to think that, but doing so is an offense to the medium. Don't get me wrong, I love trash tv, but I can't stand it when it pretends to be something more.

Except Arya and Sansa hate and distrust each other since literally Episode 1. Arya has always been super stubborn, what makes you think she would ever drop a grudge? And her hatred/jealousy of Sansa is magnified by the Northern Lords criticizing Jon with Sansas implicit approval and the Lannister letter made it even worse

This, I was worried about Gendry running back on his own, then I thought Jorah was fucked When he got disarmed. But I thought Tormund was a goner. It was some nice high tension shit.

I know they won't kill off Jon. That leaves the Hound, Tormund, Gendry, and Jorah to make for a sad death. I'm surprised they didn't kill off one at least.

The show takes itself seriously when it has too but that doesnt necessarily mean pretension

I really liked the adventure bits and the scene with Jon and Daenerys but Winterfell was a cringe fest.
My favorite GoT episode is still The Watchers On The Wall because its what the series is best at

It was a new low for the series. Even the spectacle is getting boring now because its always the same exact thing. Jon looks around defeated as violence surrounds him. It goes into slow motion before a deus ex machina shows up to save him.

The only part I didn't mention was the boat scene with Jon and Dany. Which was enjoyable and well acted.
>>
>>86472950
The fantasy genre has produced no masterpieces because of its inherent silliness. It is rooted in impossible things being made so the plot can move forward. In LotR a man was able to defeat Sauron with a damn sword, and in WoT new things keep being introduced one after the other: the Ways, portal stones, Aelfinn and Eelfinn, Seanchan, Sea Folk, the True Power, Travelling. All contrived so the plot can spring into action. It's possible to break the mould but it is too tempting to do things the same.

>>86472449
>wight hunt was good
The wight hunt was fucking terrible. They know that they could get surrounded by hundreds of wights at any moment yet they constantly splinter off from each other like idiots. That one guy wouldn't have gotten killed by the polar bear if he wasn't so far ahead for no reason. How did the bear even catch up to him so fucking fast? In one scene its a ways away then in the next scene it side blinds him, wasn't it behind him and not off to the side? The cornered scene on the ice lake was also fucking stupid. As soon as Jon and the group step on the ice it starts cracking but it becomes stable after they start running. Then for some reason hundreds of wights can run on it with no problem, but the ice ahead of them conveniently caves in makes a circle around the island so that the wights can't get them. They spend maybe a day on that rock and Clegane starts throwing rocks at the wights like an idiot and somehow the rock throwing indicates that the ice is now stable so the wights start slowly moving in on them (why aren't they instantly running?) then they start running for some reason (why is the ice not caving in under all the weight now?). They start getting swarmed but for some reason the wights only seem to be attacking one at a time. Then Tolmund gets piled on by wights but doesn't get ripped to pieces but another wildling who isn't plot important has the same thing happens to another guy but he dies instantly. The group inevitably gets swarmed on the island then Jon tells everyone to fall back (fall back to where you idiot?) but Dany shows up with her three dragons (How did she even find them?) Everyone gets on the dragon to escape (not Jon though, he decides to kill some wights for some dumb reason). Then the Night King guts Viscerion in front of Dany and she hardly seems to respond to it outside of her blank face.

This episode was fucking terrible.
>>
>>86473392
I agree with most of those points to be honest. It went downhill after Gendry left. The group banter and that first fight with the WW were the best parts of the wight hunt.
>>
i agree it was fucking terrible but you have to understand that this show has been off the rails for a while, and it doesn't have critical fans.
im not doing a turn your brain off man thing but you actually have to. let's just get through the show and move on. the details aren't important. getting this shit over with is. it's just not a good show now, but some viewers have a sunk cost. you think i'm going to read the rest of the books if he somehow survives and finishes it? hahaha fuck no. this is the wrap-up.
this board has had threads about the chains used to dredge viserions corpse from the lake

by the way i havent seen anyone ask why the hound didn't use that hammer to make a mote around the a-team, since it was established that he knew it could drop wights into the drink. he should have done that right away.

that's too much cgi
you have to realize arya gets a million smackaroos per episode. jon snow does too. they all do. they held the show hostage so we can't large scale cgi shit sustained through an episode because arya needs to be set for life
i dont think it's a bad thing, but it really frames the whole disaster that this show has become

Not necessarily because he was integral to the plot till the start of S5

Id blame GRRMs book for that one, taking LF out of Kings Landing where his character and schemes were a mistake, and with the Vale written out theres fuck all they can make him do except stalk around Winterfell like a little creep
>>
>>86473392

Also, couldn't the night king just put his hand on the ice and reinforce it with his ice hand so the ice wouldnt crack.

"My mother wishes me to let Lord Eddard join the Night's Watch, stripped of all titles and powers he would serve the realm in permanent exile. And my lady Sansa, has begged mercy for her father. But they've the soft hearts of women".

Joffery got Ned killed, not Sansa. Arya was there to watch it all.

Tormund could easily have died, he has very light plot armor compared to the others you mentioned. Same with Jorah. His arc was essentially complete and he was raising death flags earlier giving away his sword.

Cut every scene with Arya/Sansa and its a 9/10. Everything else was great. Every time it cut to them it felt like the episode ground to a halt.
>>
>>86478000
I dont agree. For me those parts are Dany/Tyrion bantz, which is boring as fuck and nothing compared to the always atmospheric and charming Varys/Tyrion bantz.

>only thoros died

stupid shit, it could have been written much better in many places. for instance, instead of gendry emailing dany and her showing up in a day, they could have shown her debating whether or not to go help jon and crew prior to ever receiving a raven. when gendry shows up at the wall, dany is already there waiting for them to come back. it would have been good character building for her.

to be honest i was expecting a great dungeon crawler type romp with all these bros sharing banter as they bash in zombie faces (as they sort of were when they were just walking around in the beginning of the episode), but it all got cut short when they decided to park it on a fucking rock. they had such a long run time for an episode and they decided to waste it on the characters sitting around on a rock.
>>

>Cut every scene with Arya/Sansa and its a 9/10
