Yes. TPTWP meant nothing I guess.

Just Arya somehow getting past a circle of white walkers without making a sound or alerting anyone and stabs him to death.



Insert “what the fuck” meme.


She literally dripped blood in the library and alerted all of them.

For her to be able to do that made absolutely no sense. I would've been fine with her killing the Night King but not like that.

Episode was beautiful. Probably the best episode in a visual sense.

And that’s all I have to say that’s positive.


No it wasnt. The lighting was dog shit and the whole thing was saturated(probably because they filmed in the day and had to heavily edit it to look like night). Millions of jump cuts so even if you can manage to see through the shit lighting you still have no idea wtf is happening for half the episode. Did that person just get stabbed? No fucking clue cause jump cut. Did that person just die? Another jump cut so who fucking knows.

It’s a massive battle. Chaotic and hectic is the point?

Do you not remember BotB? You should rewatch it.

I could have done without the dragon flying in the storm visual. That was all i’d cut.

What....

Jon rallied the entire country side... He was the reason they even stood a chance.. Just because he didn't kill the Night King doesn't mean he wasn't the Prince Who Was Promised...having Jon kill him would have been so obvious.

It also continues with their tradition of showing how prophecies are always misinterpreted.

Holy plot armor batman.


This episode felt like a play where everyone knew they were characters in a play.


Apparently throwing yourself under a table attracts less notice than drops of blood hitting the ground. Yikes.

I dunno man. Square peg in a round hole. No “killing the one you love” or lightbringer prophecy. Sure Jon built up an army, but that’s it. The prophecy was much more entertaining than what we got. That’s not mirroring the prophecy. There was nothing linking the prince that was promised story to the events we got except the night king died.

Arya just teleported past a ring of sentient white walkers without anyone lifting a finger to stab the big bad of the series, killing him with almost NO struggle. It was retarded and the more I think about it the more I find issues. Arya killed the night king in 10 seconds.

Think about that. Maybe if she sacrificed herself or something... anything.

Thrones went soft on the biggest episode of the season. Straight limp dick.

That literally was never in the show. The show barely glazed over the whole prince who was promised. They never once mentioned anything about killing a loved one or any of the prophecy minus the name and being born amidst salt and smoke.

She trained with the greatest assassins in the world. Her job was literally sneaking around and killing people.... How is that part baffling you.... Especially when the show made her out to be Jason Bourne of the Middle Ages.

Makes sense, if I had to bet on an undead demi god and his army of minions or a teenage girl with a few years of training under the best human assassins in the world well phew -no brainer.

She got ZERO assassin training dude. They taught her that if you poison they die. They taught her to use a staff when she already knew how to use a sword. That was the extent of her training. They didnt show her how to use the faces she just started doing it somehow.

Yea i remember how they made it look chaotic without jump cuts and scenes so dark you can barely see wtf is happening. Keep fanboying though im sure the spinoffs will be great :rolleyes:
