Great season finale. The change to more of the fantasy/magic themes is perfectly timed. The last 2 minutes was so good that my cat was even transfixed, staring at the TV.

lol pyat pree got pwned.

and yes, god DAMN the last scene was epic.

last two episodes were golden. i'ts like the staff went "oh f*ck we have too much money left SPEND SPEND SPEND OMGOMGOMGOMGG"

Burn up the cash baby.

....and so did Xaro Xhoan Daxos. Although, if I had to go out like that, I wouldn't mind that hot chick with me.

Yeeepppp!!!

Theon got :owned: as well. Good speech though haha. "What is dead may never die!"...WHACK!!!

And you don't F with Jon Snow!

The end scene with the Wights (aka ZOMBIES) was awesome.

That was pretty badass... Dragons and White Walkers FTW! What was up with the dude that changed his face? Crazy stufffffff

He's a shape shifter and belongs to a group of assassins from Bravos. Going by what was said in the episode without spoiling anything, lets just say Arya is very tempted to follow in his path, but wants to help her siblings first.

small spoiler, but not really, Jaqen H'ghar says "valar morghulis" to Arya, which means .

What about Sansa? That girl is one stupid bi+ch.

yea i'm not really sure why sansa feels "betrayed" by her family or whatever makes her feel like she should stay. if i were her i'd want to GTFO. brienne kicking @$$ was pretty awesome. theon's boned... and john snow looks like he'll be getting some soon enough. overall, loved the episode, and this season. why does it have to be over already?!

Now we have to wait a whole year before it comes back on :(

sad panda

I really enjoyed the ending of the season, far better than book two which leaves you on a bunch of cliffhangers, although they covered some early material from book 3 but it was totally needed to give the season some sort of conclusion. They also brought the story lines back in line with the books for the most part. I loved seeing the White Walkers/Others since I had a hard time picturing them while reading. Season 3 is going to be by far the most epic one since book 3 is IMO the most epic book from start to finish. One more year to go, until then Valar Dohaeris friends.

Well a little less than a year till the start of season three. It should start around the beginning of april 2013, as if that helps much....

In the books, she's has the **** beat out of her and she live in mortal terror of angering Jeoffry. She's so mentally and physically abused, she's terrified to make any decision. They really lightened this up in the show.
