Holy monkey genitalia!! Great episode although yes the lighting was a bit dark at times.

They are going to be singing songs about Lady Mormont for thousands of years. That pep talk from the red woman did wonders for Arya...but now arent there only about 6 of them and a dragon left to take Kings Landing? Khaleesi didnt seem to mind sacrificing the entire Dothraki as a tester.

The predictions thread I made can get f**ked

It will take me 2 years to figure that shit out ffs

I didn't mind it being dark tbh, added to the feel imo

Theon MOTM for mine, Arya just jagged the winning goal at the end

It'll probably be clearer next episode, which will hopefully be day time haha

Anyone catch a glimpse of Ghost? kinda sad if the last "tame" direwolf dies off screen after only being shown standing in the background like twice, and then running at a zombie army basically alone

Feel sorry for him, Jon got a new "better" pet and just neglected him

Just downloaded the episode 4 trailer from youtube and slowed it down to 25% speed

Ghost confirmed (behind Dany and Sam):

really? merkins all of them.

f**k some people are hard to please, if i had to criticise anything I probably would have expected a few more central characters to get the arse, but seriously I'm still shaking and I finished watching it 30 mins ago

best episode of all? maybe not but geez it's set the bar pretty damn high for the final 3.

Nah, as soon as she saw all the Dothraki go down she started raining fire. Jon tried to stop her from going early, but she wasn’t having that shit when her people were dying while she just watched.

Only the freaking NK and his billion white walkers but no one really central to the grand scheme of things of course :)

Well yeah the Night King of course. Not sure why they had all the other White Walkers not doing anything, seeing some of them actually go down in battle would have been a bit more satisfying that just shattering when the boss man died.

Yes but was the great military plan of the operation? Briane talked about holding the left and pushing them back but the Dohraki just charged into the darkness without anyone really setting any secondary motion into action. Did they think the Dothraki might be enough?

I think that’s just how the Dothraki roll

Plus is looked cool as f**k them all riding of& with flaming swords only for them to slowly extinguish

I would say the hope would’ve been more so that the Dothraki wouldn’t just be instantly snuffed out. Outside of that, having them involved in any plan isn’t really going to work well as it’s just not how they operate.

Everything else they had planned was then just overwhelmed by sheer numbers.

Getting the drop on the white walkers and night king after being trained in stealth by the faceless men. Dropping that knife and catching it again in such a fluid motion - like a water dancer, you might say - then stabbing him right where the Hound showed her it was.

So many foreshadowed payoffs in a few moments.

My favourite part of the episode is all the neckbeards crying Mary Sue About Arya now.

Solid episode with some cool moments but I don't think it was the best battle of the show considering how much they hyped it.

The darkness, while unsettling took me out of it a bit due to just not understanding everything that was happening on screen. Particularly the first 40 mins or so.

It had some good pay offs however and wasn't terrible.

I was expecting a few more considerable deaths on the good guys side.

Arya is the star of the show.

Wow, didn't see that one coming. Considering the outrage that came from captain marvel for well.. existing I'll expect just as much from the same dickheads about this one.

Having a beer for my homeboy theon. Might not have a cock buy still has some giant balls
