I've just cried like an absolute state. Probably my favourite sequence of the show ever.

Gutted about the tree bitches and wish we'd seen more of them, gutted about Summer, gutted about the Three Eyed Raven and mostly about Hodor of course.

Oh god I haven't cried this much since Hachi :sad:

Oh and I was not prepared for the first ever full frontal cock shot! :laugh: Emilia Clarke's "#FreeTheP" campaign finally paid off...

Hodor!!! If anyone ever asks me to hold the door again, I may have a breakdown :bawling:

Nyeh... That "Hodor" = "hold dah door" thing fell flat for me. It's just... sort of lame? Otherwise a pretty decent episode: although also, Arya's storyline seems to have majorly stalled and is getting stale, it needs to go somewhere fast, it's basically been a repeat of the same couple of scenes for a season and a half. "A girl is no one" and getting whacked in the face by that ginger kid.

I loved the Hodor bit and the explanation for it :'(

As for Arya, i was thinking because of seeing that play is she really going to stick to being No one hhhmmm I need proper Arya back, I hope she doesn't kill that woman

I think the suggestion (especially with her reaction to the play) is that despite everything, she is still very much Arya Stark, and is still only playing along with the faceless in order to gain their training and abilities. As soon as she's full Jedi she'll head back across the sea.

I just feel like it's been drawn out a bit too much. I get that it's more realistic for her to have been there for a couple of years training rather than her be there a few months and instant-ninja... But I sort of feel like, if she doesn't leave them this season or there isn't a development, it's wasted air time? Like they could just have had her AWOL for the season like Bran was last season, and return to her at the beginning of next season, trained and ready to move on. Like start the season with her totally zen and "a girl is no one", but then hearing some news in passing (about Sansa / John and Winterfell, maybe?) and saying "Actually a girl is Arya Stark bye bye lol"...

Anyway, yeah, the Hodor thing... I've read that this was George Rrrrrr Martin's idea about his name all along but to me it feels like reverse planning? Like "Hey Hodor sounds like Hold Door... How can I write this in?". It didn't feel organic.

I suppose they need to show her actually building her Ninja/bad assness though so we know what went on, eventhough it has been a bit boring.

Ah nah i don't think that about Hodor, I mean he must have thought about why Hodor only says Hodor before he came to that decision

I saw someone say imagine if Arya became no one and when she went back westeros and Nymeria and her pack killed her because she didn't recognise her :omgno:

And apparently they're killing off the direwolves bc theyre almost as expensive as the dragons to do CGI wise :(

24-05-2016, 10:34 AM

Must be because it was the three eyed raven who told him to warg into Hodor so he obviously knew that was how it was supposed to go and was probably the reason why he looked worried when Ned heard him at the Tower of Joy scene because maybe that wasn't supposed to happen?

They can't kill off Ghost!! :(

Also, Arya's dire wolf is presumably still alive somewhere, too.

As for the time travel... hopefully they make it "unproblematic" time travel at least (major events are set, you can't change the timeline). Once you stray into the territory of time manipulation things just get too messy and plotlines end up all over the place. One might suggest that the series of events for Bran and Hodor were always as they turned out, Hodor (Willis) was always there with them with the only difference being that he could speak (he was always a bit simple... it wouldn't have made a huge difference to his personality... haha), Bran always warged into him and he always died ho'ding the dor. The "time travel" didn't really change anything other than creating a sort of feedback loop, Bran warging into adult Hodor and young Willis at the same time, allowing Willis to experience his death in the future and breaking his mind a little.

They sort of went into this in a recent "Legends of Tomorrow" (in which the time travel is a shambles tbh...) by saying that it's very difficult to actually change time, it wants to go where it's going, like a river. You can throw in rocks and make a ripple, even build a dam to try to block it, but at the end of the day the river will make its way back to flowing where it was always going to flow.

OR the whole thing could end with Bran going back in time thousands of years and fixing everything :joker:

Or Bran is the reason why things are so ****ed up to begin with. It could be that the Mad King became the Mad King because of Bran's shenanigans.

24-05-2016, 11:41 AM
I just read someones theory that maybe Bran didn't necessarily cause Hodor to become Hodor by warging him in the past but maybe Hodor was a greenseer and was able to see the vision of his own death at that time and that caused him to lose his mind, I think I prefer that theory than the changing the past from the future bit :think:

I suppose it could be a situation in which the Mad King was the lesser of two evils. Perhaps Bran's power grows to a point in which he can not only affect the past but see what happens in different timelines.

Shaun
24-05-2016, 03:02 PM
Is it just me that's struggling to remember half of this universe atm? I don't remember anything about the Mad King but then I'm only a show-watcher rather than a book-reader.

The reintroduction of the Greyjoys, revisiting the Dothraki, Sansa being told the blackfish was back... all of it's pretty much going over my head. WHAT IS A BLACK FISH. WHO. WHERE AM I?

Niamh.
24-05-2016, 03:08 PM
Yeah I think if you're not a book reader it's harder to hold onto all the more historical characters stories. I regularly have to pause the show and give Gavin a quick rundown of who is who and who they're related to and what that persons story is etc

Niamh.
24-05-2016, 03:10 PM
oh and Shaun the Blackfish is Brynden Tully, Catelyns uncle

The Mad King, is Danys dad, he got extremely paranoid in his later years as ruler and wanted to burn everything. He killed Neds brother and father

I'm not a book reader but, as with everything I watch (plus Marvel / DC etc.) I am an avid Wikipedia reader :joker:. I find I get a lot more out of shows like Game of Thrones if I throw in a bit of Wikipedia research after each episode. There are also a couple of dedicated GoT wiki's. They point out things like the differences between the show and the books, too, which can be interesting.

Niamh.

Yeah to be fair there are so many characters across the seasons, it gets confusing. I thought Samwell was a Tully for years until I realised he was saying "Tarly"...

Anyway, Benjen was a Night's Watchman and sort of Jon Snow's idol... he went North of the wall on an expedition and never came back; the men he took with him were later found dead north of the wall so Benjen has been MIA / presumed dead since then.

It was a little dull but it et up a lot of stuff so I think the next few episodes will have more forward momentum.

Coldhands/Benjen flaming chain whipped his way into my heart <3.

I liked seeing Sam's family, I think it was something I'd have liked to have seen more of but I understand why it was a one episode plotline.

The High Sparrow stuff is beyond boring, I used to like Tommen but he is so spineless and the High Sparrow is so boring and this whole storyline is bringing the season down. Let Olenna and Cersei rip those boring crew cut bitches apart already.

I hope the Riverlands stuff will lead to LSH but Ive been burned too many times to think it's going to happen now.

I'm happy that Arya's storyline is developing and she seems to be moving away from the Assassins, the plotline has ultimately turned out to be very boring and I'd much rather she find her way back to Westeros but not before stabbing that blonde bitch a few times, I hope.

it sort of feels like every time Olenna is on screen now the producers are just desperate for her to deliver another "gif" rather than a memorable scene/dialogue any more... she's fallen a bit flat for me recently.

Shaun
31-05-2016, 12:13 AM
Also I agree with what someone on the AV Club said about wanting a spin-off show of Arya reviewing popular culture of the show's time/world. Her laughing at Joffrey's death and interacting with the crew (who just happened to all be great comic actors) <3

I guess that's just to make the whole "cause" seem more pointless/flawed from Arya's/our perspective tbf. It does seem to just be a Jaqen affair, which is fair enough bc I find him interesting but it's all very cloak-and-dagger and no real substance.

I half agree about Dany.

I used to love her and I do still love the whole dragon thing but she's starting to irritate me slightly, one minute shes trying to free slaves and the next minute she's preaching about going to Westeros and killing innocent people and destroting homes...she just comes across a bit entitled and power hungry at the moment and I'm seeing her flaws and wondering if she's the hero or the villain sometimes

Kinda felt like a filler episode to me, cant help but feel weve been led down a pointless route with the Arya storyline tbh, I was never overly keen on her book chapters either but she had already grown up enough / was able to defend herself before getting on the boat and going through the many faces crap IMO.

The Dany stuff bores me as much as it did in the books, don't get me wrong the dragons are cool etc but I'm actually at the point where I don't give a **** unless she's finally stepping foot on a boat.

The Dany story is boring sometimes, and she's very arrogant
High Sparrow is annoying and boring, just want it over with
Nice to see Sam's family, wish we had more of that
Glad to see Arya's story move along and her eyebrows to get some appreciation.

Is JAqen testing the waif too?

It does seem kinda odd that he'd be so ignorant to see how much delight she gets from treating Arya like crap, maybe he'll kill her himself / catch her torturing Arya in some way and punish her :think: (and reaffirm my love for him tbh)

But then idk... was it ever said why he wanted that actress dead?

Hey Smithy how are you feeling about Dany now btw? She seems to be turning evil

Smithy
31-05-2016, 12:17 PM
No she doesn't :nono:

I think she just lives in the moment as apposed to looking at the long term, like as epic as the scene was with her killing the Khals and taking the entire Dothraki Army as her own, once they get to Westeros (and lets say for arguments sake she conquers) there's no chance they'd just settle because that's not the sort of people that they are, and it won't really do her any favours with the Westerosi because they'd just view her as someone whose brought over this foreign barbaric army who're going to rape and pillage the whole of Westeros and taken the throne for herself. She should leave the dothraki in Mereen tbh and just take the Unsullied, Second Sons and ha dragons back home

Niamh.

Did you not listen to her speech though? She wants to burn the place to the ground, she's turning into her Mad daddy :nono:

Smithy
31-05-2016, 12:50 PM
I think she just said that because Dariio said that she was a conqueror and not a ruler though, i don't actually think she wants to kill innocent people, that defeats the point of everything she's just been doing in the East, it's the kind of talk the Dothraki understand most so I'm guessing she did it to rile them and commit themselves to her in crossing the narrow sea

Niamh.
31-05-2016, 12:55 PM
Yeah but obviously both her Dragons and the Dothraki are going to kill indiscriminately, I think it's a sign of her turning power crazy, she was already becoming so full of herself in the books

Her father was murdered, her mother died in childbirth, she spent her childhood fleeing from assassins with an abusive older brother, lost a child, a husband, her people and almost died in a desert though??

Just because she didn't whinge about it doesn't mean she hasn't suffered loss :shrug:

Yeah she hates the Masters but that mob of raping, thieving, murdering Dothraki brutes are all good as long as its her that they're burning down homes for

The Arya storyline has been very annoying. We've had about two seasons of her training for this 'girl has no name' crap and then she recants it in a heartbeat and decides surprisingly that being an anonymous assassin murdering people for no reason is not that good a life after all. It doesn't really say much for Arya's character that she persisted with it so long.

It was definitely a lot of filler this week and amongst the Sam scene, Arya's painfully dragged out story, the anticlimax in Kings Landing and the pointless Daenarys scene it wasn't a very satisfying episode at all

The impression that I got (right from her first meeting the assassin) was more that she simply wants the training and abilities and had learned that she'd have to "play the game" convincingly in order to continue her training. She always fully intended to return home (represented by her hiding the sword), and has now realised that actually unquestioningly murdering seemngly-innocent people for no good reason, in the name of being an assassin, is a step too far.

I do think it's been dragging on long enough now though... it would be pretty awesome to see her return to Westeros and effortlessly take on men three times her size.

My problem with dany isn't that she has character flaws because all the best characters do. In fact I think that would be interesting storyline to watch Dany turn a bit evil and maybe become a bit like the mad king.

My problem isn't with her its just with how repetitive her story has gotten. Its just become her encountering a problem that she just fixes with the snap of her fingers then she gets this huge 'fierce' moment... There's hardly any conflict and when its over and it may as well of not of happened.

Compare the Daenerys we have now to season 1 Dany, who started the season being down trodden and having no control of her destiny. We watched her slowly adapt to her situation and gain more power only to loose it all with Drogo's death and just when it all looked hopeless for her she has that massive unburnt moment and its just so satisfying and amazing because you feel like she's earned that moment. Now she just gets all these cheep fierce dragon moments that are meant to be powerful but just don't do it for me.

I agree with all except the two Starks, we really don't know anything about Rickon. He might be a little arsehole! Sansa at the beginning was a huge elitist and, despite everything, there are still definite hints of that. She's a "good" person but not necessarily always a nice / kind one. That sort of applies to all of the Stark kids to be honest, even including Jon Snow, although again he is "good" he's had his questionable and selfish moments.

The Queen of Thrones had the best lines this episode
"I wonder if you are the worst person I have ever met... it's so hard to remember with age" :laugh3:
also... telling Cersei she has lost... priceless

The director said that GoT's seperate scenes have never lined up quite correctly, for example, in episode 1 we have the Lannisters showing up even though at the start of the episode they were still in Kings Landing. It's generally done like that for pacing reasons (it would have probably taken Sansa and Jon a whole season to go around all the houses)

Book Spoilers I guess?

I swear to god, If LSH doesn't turn up after all these teases I will cut a bitch. I can't deal with another season finale that raises my hopes and then dashes them.

The episode was pretty good though. CLEGANE <3.

I like where this season is headed, the pace has definitely picked up and I hope they carry it on for the future episodes. I don't mind if it's a bit odd that Yara and Theon get to Mereen before the end of the series, make it happen. I don't care that Sansa and Jon teleported around the North we've had enough set up and it's great that we're starting to see results.

I have to admit, Arya's story has interested me for the first time in a long while. I'm guessing Jaqen's going to help her and that he was testing the Waif in some way as the Faceless men are meant to be quite above it all and unconcerned with grudges and stuff but the Waif's fixation on Arya seems to be at odds with that.

Loved having the Blackfish back again too, I do wonder that, if LSH is going to be a thing, if he knows she's 'alive'? Seeing what Cat's become would probably leave him a bit hollow which would explain how he acted as he didn't seem like he was acting out of anger or revenge.

Whole bunch of Arya theories flocking around atm, I won't put them in spoilers because they're hardly spoilers and have no confirmation/evidence for them :laugh:

Option A: The waif has never existed and the whole thing has been a "Fight Club" kind of sequence with her (literally) beating herself up and killing her own identity inside her head (supported by the scenes where she was beaten up in the streets by the waif and no one else seemed to give a toss lol)
Option B: the Arya that was stabbed was never Arya - someone found a screenshot of her walking to the bridge past someone that also strongly resembled her from behind (carrying two pails of water), and some think it was Jaqen himself who went disguised as Arya (very plausible...) to test the waif's "quick, clean kill" method, which she obviously failed since she didn't go for her throat :laugh:
Option C: Arya was carrying pouches of pig's blood on her body and knew the waif would attack her body from training with her, so was completely unharmed and has now left a trail of blood to her hideout where, with her blindness experience, she can kill off the waif/Jaqen in the dark with Needle.

not sure which will happen, or if she's just genuinely ****ed :laugh: but I'd love option C.

I'm more convinced than ever that she's showing up at long last, there's just too much pointing towards it.

If not, they've been trolling the audience big time :joker:

My response to this episode was largely "meh"

But uh...at least Arya's alive... takes the piss a bit though that all she's got to go home with after 2 seasons is a bit of experience with fighting in the dark.

I'm going to hope for a brief cutaway of the actress' newfound fans burning down the Many Faced God's temple. R.I.P. you rubbish cook :love:

And I assume no LSH then. Unless Beric and Thoros fancy trolling the Hound for a bit and dropping the bomb later on.

Frustrating episode, they're clearly just pushing for everything to happen in the finale :bored:

The Walkers coming
The aftermath of the battle of the bastards
Cersei' scheme
The siege of Mereen
Arya leaving Bravos
Varys in Dorne

There was really no reason why Mereen/Varys/Arya couldn't have happened this episode

Episode and Book Spoilers.

YASS at Arya ****ing that bitch up. I'm sad Lady Crane had to die though, she was amazing. I'm glad that they're finally moving on from the Faceless Men storyline and I hope we see Arya in Westeros by the end of the series.

I never realised how much I missed the Hound until this episode, I just want him to team up with Arya again though. Quite pissed that the LSH teases have once again led to nothing. The only way I see her inclusion happening is if, in the TV show version, Beric only had to give up his immortality and not his life to bring Cat back but that's reaching tbh.

I reckon Cersei's Maester has found the Wildfire that the Mad King hid around King's Landing to burn it, I SO hope that's the case and she uses it to burn the sparrows to ashes <3.

Blackfish dying was predictable but still sad, All the minor characters I like are dying this season </3

It's strange to think that Tyrion's taken a backseat this season though, I imagine they might be building to something dramatic though. I think Dany could potentially cast him out for ****ing up Meereen so badly.

So tired of people complaining in this thread about plot and character development being filler... And episodes being pointless or boring...I loved this episode and practically ever episode this season. It doesn't have to be a massive scene every clip to keep my attention

Read a book people and learn to love the subtle build up to an event and not just the event itself

I don't mind filler scenes (S1's scene between Cersei and Robert stands as one of the best GoT has ever done), I just think that, at this late stage in the game, we can't really have filler episodes.

Time is a commodity that is rapidly running out for this series. realistically we have less then 20 hours of GoT left.

Mokka
14-06-2016, 10:53 AM
But it isn't filler...it's all the little reasons the big things happen. I just don't even get the filler argument at all

Smithy
14-06-2016, 10:55 AM
How was them drinking in any way contributing to the overall storyline? It's not necessary, all it was was a set up for them all to be together when the Seige started, now that Dany is back I sincerely doubt either of them will be drinking again

Tom4784
14-06-2016, 10:56 AM

And they need to mix that up with scenes of consequence better. Setting something up is important but you can't have whole episodes devoted to setting up future plot points. You need moments that pay off mixed in with the set up.

This series has felt quite slow on the whole, it almost feels like a filler series. Stuff has happened, although it doesn't feel like there's been much development for many characters.

I just hope they don't try and cram everything in two episodes now.

Nah there was deffo some sexual tension like at first I thought it was just Dany admiring yara for wanting to be a queen. But you could defo tell Dany was undressing her with her eyes :laugh:
Something might actually happen between coz we've seen that yara is lesbo and apparantly in the books Dany is super bi so it might actually happen :worry:

More upset over Wun Wun than the useless Rickon. And I really would've liked Davos to find out about Shireen the night before the battle or something, was sure he was going to be offed by some wandering wight when he went for a walk.
