Does nobody here know how to adjust the image on a tv set? Shock

Kingslayer · 29/04/2019 22:11

Few questions after that epic battle...

How the fuck is the onion knight still alive?! Mr "not a fighter"

What did sir friendzone say when he collapsed??

Does bran have any other expressions to convey emotion? Fuck. Imagine having sex with that face 😁

Oblomov19 · 29/04/2019 22:13

Was a bit slow to start with. Liked the Arya bit.

8dayweek · 29/04/2019 22:20

Well... that was intense. Got a little "comedy" in the middle but I think it was always going to.

Sad about Theon and Edd. But glad Theon was "forgiven" first - even by cold old Bran!

Lyanna and Jorah went out with style - I think that's the end of House Mormont? Didn't Lyanna's older sisters die at the Red Wedding.

I've got to say - did you get the impression they were trying to insinuate that Melissandre was Jaquen and Syrio. Or has she just got a bit of greensight?!

Also, I don't know if I'm going a bit theory overload / overthinking things but was there anything in Melissandre and Greyworm doing the valar moghulis greeting?

iklboo · 29/04/2019 22:24

How many dragons are left now? The wingy flying ones I mean (not metaphorical). Is it just the one?

theGirlWithManyFaces · 29/04/2019 22:27

Just rewatching now and find it odd that when the NK appears in front of Theon and Bran, Theon doesn't shit his pants, I mean if you had never seen him before and he appeared with his crew I think I would do more then stare blank faced

agirlhasnonameX · 29/04/2019 22:29

Only in GoT do you get an episode like that and it's not the ending. 4 hours left, can't wait to see what happens now Grin

YoureAllABunchOfBastards · 29/04/2019 22:30

Ok, well that improved on a second viewing.

The music is utterly fantastic. As the Night King walks towards Bran - just amazing!

Had to watch on catch up as picture went to shit live - not sure if it is because we are getting Sky via Now TV.

No way will I stay awake for Thronecast though.

What did sir friendzone say when he collapsed??

He said "I'm hurt."

The dagger was given to Aria at that same spot

Brilliant episode. Was nearly retching when she killed him out of anxiety!

Tightarseparent1 · 29/04/2019 22:46

** by Bran!

ElenadeClermont · 29/04/2019 22:46

Lweji I have adjusted the TV obviously, but it was still too dark for me. I know it was meant to be atmospheric, but it was just shitty quality. I still liked it.

Do you want to see a truly atmospheric film with lots of nois, confusion and tragedy? Son of Saul is perfect like that. You feel like you are in that hell. It is about the Holocaust.

Of course we know how it's just 99% of shows are shot in a way that you don't need to!

Pieceofpurplesky · 29/04/2019 22:53

@8dayweek yes I did. It was implied and I had the thought that she also wears another face

ElenadeClermont · 29/04/2019 22:53

A tribute to Theon from me as well:

A Dance With Dragons:
The night was windless, the snow drifting straight down out of a cold black sky, yet the leaves of the heart tree were rustling his name. “Theon,” they seemed to whisper, “Theon.”
The old gods, he thought. They know me. They know my name. I was Theon of House Greyjoy. I was a ward of Eddard Stark, a friend and brother to his children. “Please.” He fell to his knees. “A sword, that’s all I ask. Let me die as Theon, not as Reek.” Tears trickled down his cheeks, impossibly warm. “I was ironborn. A son ... a son of Pyke, of the islands.”
A leaf drifted down from above, brushed his brow, and landed in the pool. It floated on the water, red, five-fingered, like a bloody hand. “... Bran,” the tree murmured.

Winds of Winter sample chapter:
"Then do the deed yourself, Your Grace." The chill in Asha's voice made Theon shiver in his chains. "Take him out across the lake to the islet where the weirwood grows, and strike his head off with that sorcerous sword you bear. That is how Eddard Stark would have done it. Theon slew Lord Eddard's sons. Give him to Lord Eddard's gods. The old gods of the north. Give him to the tree."
And suddenly there came a wild thumping, as the maester's ravens hopped and flapped inside their cages, their black feathers flying as they beat against the bars with loud and raucous caws. "The tree," one squawked, "the tree, the tree," whilst the second screamed only, "Theon, Theon, Theon."
Theon Greyjoy smiled. They know my name, he thought.

Loopytiles · 29/04/2019 22:55

Excellent, and I hate battles. The Dothraki lights going out, the focused sounds like Lyanna’s bones crunching (Sad) and quieter moments, very effective.

Also passed the Bechdel Test: Melissandre and Arya discussing Arya’s calling and death!

Thought Ser Brienne and Jamie were a goner: they may be injured.

Think Theon was calm because he knew the score: he’d prepared to fight to the death, fought off loads of them, then the chief fuckers turned up!

Loopytiles · 29/04/2019 22:56

Night King was a disappointment though: saying nothing.

Tightarseparent1 · 29/04/2019 23:01

I thought the picture was fine. Sat in the dark, new tv. Was great!

kungfupannda · 29/04/2019 23:05

So who died?

All the Dothraki
Most of the unsullied
Lots of other unnamed randoms
Greyworm?
Melisandre
Ed (Not happy)
Beric (Extremey unhappy)
Lyanna (Couldn't be more unhappy)
Gilly?
Theon
Anyone else?

itswinetime · 29/04/2019 23:06

Greyworm and Gilly are alive I think

fancynancyclancy · 29/04/2019 23:09

I like that Ayra killed the NK. It makes sense that you need stealth to take him down.

fancynancyclancy · 29/04/2019 23:11

Also liked Dany in this episode.

LaurieMarlow · 29/04/2019 23:14

So that’s it with the Night King? 8 seasons of bigging up and it’s over in 10 seconds with 3 episodes to go?

Massive anticlimax.

EraOfTheGrey · 29/04/2019 23:16

Greyworm, Gilly and Melisandre are all still alive. You see Gilly and Melisandre standing in the crypt at the end. Greyworm was also standing near Tormund and Gendry. No idea how Samwell is still alive though.
