yeah, this week's, not so much :(

I thought the episode was great till the disturbing ending lol

The exchange between Tyrion and Jorah was a good one. And it seems like King's Landing is quickly becoming pretty destabilized. King Tommen looks like such a tool right now.

I usually watch each new episode twice just to make sure I catch everything, and this was the first episode where I felt a little disappointed after the first viewing. This is mostly due to the bummer ending.

After the second viewing my opinion has changed and see this as a pretty strong episode.

Here are my favorite parts:

( Click to show/hide )


1) The scene between Tyrion and Mormont was very satisfying. I am liking that since the story has slowed down that we get to see some good character development such as this, and the relationship between Brienne and Pod.

2) At first I felt that Jaime and Bronn's infiltration of The Water Gardens of Dorne was a bit flimsy and rushed and the fight with the Sand Snakes a bit contrived and unbelievable. After a second viewing things didn't seem so incongruous. I LOVE the Sand Snakes even more when they are all armored up and fighting. Did anyone else notice that Tyene cut Bronn at the last moment of the fight? Has Bronn been poisoned?

3) Littlefinger is making more big moves as usual.

4) They Tyrell inquisition and the subsequent jailing is more strong in the show than in the books. It seems more believable and I am glad that Loras and Lancel are still somewhat main characters.

5) I don't think they could do Arya's story arc any better. Those scenes in the House of Black and White where taken right from my imagination and put on screen.

6) The Sansa/Ramsey/Reek scene was upsetting, but necessary. I have always liked Sansa and it was sad seeing her treated like that. There seems to be a lot of controversy around this, but somehow we have forgotten that poor Theon was tortured and had his weiner chopped off!

Im waiting for the next "OH SH1T" moment that is completely out of the blue.

StLRedrider 05-31-2015 09:19 PM
Holy sh!t that last 15minutes was CRAZY

Cant get enough of GOT....only 2 more episodes and the long wait begins again. Best episode of the season yet imo

Valerian Steel is going to give the white walkers fits! what a battle at the end. Those white walkers are terrifying

Book readers are in "green fields" just like the show watchers, so...

...the White Walker attack on Hardhome was a total and pleasant suprise. On many different levels GOT is setting a new standard for fantasy. It may be controversial, but the bad guys are actual real, bad guys that do terrible things. The Night's King and the entire Hardhome scene certainly reinforced the idea that the White Walkers are a mysterious menace that will be play into the outcome of the game.

Tyrion and Dany's conversation was outstanding!

HKYStormFront 06-01-2015 09:53 PM
Freaking loved this week's episode!

Jaw dropping to finally see the White Walkers in full action.

BlackZeda 06-02-2015 02:02 PM
As is often the case, I was in the mood to listen to a little Mastodon yesterday after that ever so satisfying GOT episode on Sunday. While perusing the reviews I ran across this: Music on TV: Inside Mastodon’s Epic ‘Game of Thrones’ Cameo - Speakeasy - WSJ

I find this funny since IMO Mastodon to be the musical equivalent of Game of Thrones...epic, complex, brutal... They barely had to find costumes and makeup for these guys.

Plus this just kicks major azz!

6spd 06-08-2015 11:19 AM
So..........

I'm still pretty speechless after last nights episode. Only one word can describe it: Epic.

BlackZeda 06-09-2015 08:48 AM
The episode "The Dance of Dragons" was probably the most brutal with the most disturbing death, but I think a lot of people got a huge payoff when

Drogon showed up to turn the harpies into crispy critters.

GoT is really testing my patience with this season. It almost feels like a burden to watch now. Especially after the key deaths in the past couple episodes, though I guess one was paid off almost immediately this week. Still a great show, just wish it wasn't quite so bleak. Having said that... I wonder if the character that dies at the very end of this week's episode is really gone. With what we know about faith and magic, is that really their fate? I almost wanted the last shot to be of the character blinking once right before cutting to credits. Maybe that's just me though...

zmanelite 06-15-2015 11:13 PM
I have read about 10 possible outcomes about him
So far from what ive read is we will have to wait till season 12 to see if anything becomes of this

BlackZeda 06-16-2015 08:37 AM
It is hard to say which season of GOT has been the best, but for me five is very much up there. Now the near depression sets in the next couple days knowing that I have to wait for both The Winds of Winter to be published AND the next season. I wonder which one will come to pass first?

I even liked the silly, sexy Sand Snakes...especially Tyene for some reason :yum:

jaytirbhaw 06-16-2015 08:45 AM
I feel like they are dragging the storylines along so as to not surpass the books too much, trying to spoil as little as possible. Its like one big waiting game to see any sort of resolution for the good guys

Many theories abound and the books leave it far more open to to Jon being able to survive...though unlikely. There's no doubt that Jon is dead. Does he stay dead is a different story and he wouldn't be the first. Drogo sort of came back and so did Beric Dondarrion. Lady Stoneheart too if you've read the books. That's not even counting the countless reanimated wights, but they've but all lost who they were. Still, just proves that dead doesn't necessarily mean dead forever.

Many think the red priestess could revive him from death, but I don't think it would be that obvious. We know she's powerful, but we also know her visions and powers have been completely wrong. My guess. Jon is half Targaryen and there's plenty of evidence to suggest this. They'll burn his body (for fear that he'll come back as a wight)...he'll wake up, reborn from the fire, just as Danny did with her dragons. He may even fulfill the prophecy of The Prince That Was Promised. According to prophecy, the Prince That Was Promised would be reborn "amidst salt and smoke" and pull a flaming sword from the flames, Lightbringer, to combat the coming darkness...

They have a ton of similarities if you look closely. Both are orphans, both had their mother died during childbirth, both have creatures they share a common bond with (dragon/direwolf) and both gained positions of power through honorable acts.

Just a theory, lol

IMO I think you nailed it :twocents: Very similar to my thoughts after I finished Dance with Dragons however long ago that was.

I'm interested to see the split now since the show has caught up. I can't imagine GRRM pushing out the next book just to keep HBO on schedule. More likely HBO will continue to take creative liberties as they have already done. It is possible they will consult with GRRM for his thoughts before the show scripts are written, but I'm not sure how likely that is.

They've already surpassed the books. If anything, they're moving a lot faster than the books. If you've been watching or reading the whole story so far.... GoT has never been about quick resolutions. Though the subject matter is clearly fantasy, it's pace is closer to reality and having the good guys resolve everything in one episode would be kind of boring. The only thing slow is GRRM's book releases. Its been an excruciatingly long wait between books and there's no doubt now that the series will surpass the books. It's been 4 years since "A Dance with Dragons" for crying out loud....20 years since the "A Game of Thrones." GRRM is still not done with "Winds of Winter" and there's no way he'll finish and release the last book before season 7 concludes.

They've surpassed the books yes, catching up ( or surpassing) dany,stannis and jon's stories as they are in the books, however I feel like next season will still be revisiting some parts of the books that they have not yet touched on , like Jaime in the riverlands, the emergence of Euron and the greyjoy brothers, and dorne's intentions being revealed, possibly introducing (revealing) a certain someone.


and i agree.. the wait is excruciating, not sure if i buy 7 seasons, just don't see it happening in only 7 yet

Mike 06-16-2015 07:26 PM
so, my wife and I each saw the scene differently. Did Reek and Sansa plunge to their deaths, or plunge to the snow to escape?

Snow to escape.

Yeah to me it looked like they intended to jump to safety, not to die. Though that was a long way down!

BlackZeda 06-17-2015 08:13 AM
In the show version, it seems to me that Sansa and Theon are making the decision to escape, or die trying. They really have little choice at this point as Ramsey may not be pleased.

speedfreek 06-17-2015 08:33 AM
The show creators have already went on record that they have had discussions with GRRM and know where they are going with the story and what the end will be. They only received his permission to do the show because they guessed who is Jon Snow's mother correctly.

Not to be condescending, but what do you expect them to say? Its been stated from credible sources on reddit etc that he's signed through season 7. Someone like Ned Stark, who was killed off, was not extended beyond season 1. If his character were to return in some fashion, its per diem contracted appearance - not as a part of the contract for the primary cast, which typically also includes press requirements etc.

If JS died on Sunday night, and on Monday morning everyone related to ASOIAF/Thrones is saying "nahhhh just wait, i'm not really dead, JS will be back!" It completely defeats the purpose of even killing him in the first place and wrecks the surprise of his return in a different form. Fans would not be happy, and most of all that would be a really stupid way to handle it. Plus, his outcome hasn't been revealed in the books yet either.

On his return, in whatever form it is, the significance of R + L = J will also be revealed.

6spd 06-17-2015 08:43 AM
You never know, he could be out for a season like Brann was this season, then return the following season. Who knows, right?

Yup, to escape. The same snow storm that stopped Stannis' army likely provided enough snow drifts to cushion their fall. If they wanted to kill themselves, they would have jumped of to the side where Theon pushed that other girl. They'll no doubt end up on the wall. Sansa knows Jon is there.

I suspect that Jon's direwolf was not named "Ghost" on a whim...

While Kit Harrington may not be the actor that plays him, Jon Snow will most likely be back in some form next season.

I have a feeling that it will be revealed during the first episode of season 6 that Melisandre and Jon's body have mysteriously disappeared...
