bremendiego1 Maybe the white walkers were preparing themselves for a time when they can cross the wall. If i remember correct,there is magic In the wall that don't allow them to pass
Maybe the Night King didn't have a way to get through the wall until he had himself a dragon? Whats the point of going to a wall he has no way to get though.
The thing is that entire plan was stupid. If I'm Jon I don't take 7 guys. I take 100. I pick a spot by the sea and have horses and a boat ready. I take all that Dragon glass I just got and use it with dozens of archers to cover a quick exit onto the boats.
I think the reason Benjen didn't go with Jon was because, he said that he couldn't go to the wall for some reason. He had a charm or something. That's why he didn't go with Bran last season. He was like, "fuck it, I'll die protecting my nephew".
Negan Lannister I enjoyed pretty much all the dialogue. I thought Arya and Sansa's conversations were well written as well as Tyrion and Dany. As I said the overall plot wasn't that great but I'm really big on dialogue and thought I'd give credit where it's due.
They don't do review copies for GoT anymore, even when they did it was only the first four episodes or so. Anyone that has their edited reaction/review up now have obviously watched the leaked copy. Not that I'm judging, I did too even though I have HBO. Couldn't wait.
if the walkers cant swim, how did they wrap the dragon with that big ass heavy chain???? i wouldve bought it more if the dragon just flew out from the bottom of the lake unasisted.
The Night King must be a seer similar to Bran Stark being a greenseer / 3 Eyed Raven. How else would the Night King know to bring the giant chains (most likely from Hardhome) used to drag the dead dragon from the lake. If I play the part of apologist for the writers of Game of Thrones this season, I noticed that a significant number of Game of Thrones fans are troubled by the fact that in GoT season 7 episode 6 the Night King chose to throw an ice spear first at Viserion instead of Drogon who at the time was stationary on the ground and much closer to the Night King when the Night King directly attacked. I would like to suggest that if the Night King is indeed a seer, then he may have seen what we saw in season 7 episode 4 when Bronn used the scorpion weapon to launch a javelin / spear at Drogon that struck Drogon but was unable to fully penetrate Drogon’s tough scaled hide. It’s reasonable to assume that the Night King can’t throw an ice spear with anymore force than what is possible with a scorpion weapon. If the Night King had attacked Drogon first and failed, Daenerys would have witnessed this and may have had the confidence to decide to unleash the full power of Drogon upon the Night King right then and there. The safer and more calculated choice for the Night King was to attack a smaller dragon, Viserion. The other thing to consider is that at the time of the attack by the Night King, Viserion was flying towards the Night King and his White Walker generals. The Night King needed to neutralize this approaching threat. The Night King also took advantage of the laws of physics where the force of an impact is increased significantly when 2 objects in motion toward each other collide. The fact that Viserion is smaller and the dragon was flying toward the Night King increased the probability that an ice spear thrown at that moment by the Night King would be able to take down Viserion and kill him.
Night King internal monologue. "Should I kill my main foe's and the big dragon that is sitting still nearby, or should I go for the trick shot on the moving target miles away........... trick shot'.
It's clear that you guys just jumped on the GOT bandwagon, really need to get up on what's going on, like the names of Benjin Stark and Dragonstone and the fact bran wasn't in season 5, he was a huge role in last season and to not remember is crazy. These reviews would be much better if you know what's going on, I like most things John does, but it's clear he's new to GOT
I liked Jorah's comment about passing the sword down to your children. Peculiar timing ;) Also feel Gendry's run was definitely parallel to the run from Marathon, even collapsing at the end.
Remember Jon conversation with torus. To rum told him that pride was one of the reasons the wildlands king did not wanted to bend the knee and that got a lot of wildlands dead.
George ain't writing these episodes. Just a reminder. Another that might be useful, LF got Sansa exactly where he wants her. Go back to "...fight every battle, everywhere, always, in your mind"
Why are so many people hating on this episode? Every time there's a battle in GOT everyone like "ugh this show is turning into fanfic"...but then when there's no battle people say the plot is too slow and boring
Tormund reminded him that Mance's pride caused several of his people to die. Plus I mean.. She saved them and sacrificed one of her dragons. Ofcourse he's going to respect that and bend the knee
I still havn't gotten used to how incredibly fast paced the show has become compared to how it used to be. I seems so weird to have Dany go form Dragonstone to North of the Wall in only five minutes.
I known Daenys can't bear anymore children,but maybe she can and it have to be with someone that's blood related to her. I think it does make sense,because I heard that her father and mother are brother and sister. I think Targaryen blood are curse. If they marries someone who's unrelated, their loved ones ended up dying. Probably she need someone who's related to her to reviece a child with a better future. Probably she will end up having a child unexceptly with Jon (that's she didn't known that she's related). Probably "the prince" in the prophecy will turn out it's their child (if it's a boy).
Even if Dany was settled on executing the Tarlys, she didn't have to do it right away, or even in public. In season 5 one of her supporters (a former slave) killed a captured son of the harpy before a trial could be held and she executed that guy in public for it. She could have done it quietly behind closed doors. It cost her a LOT of support from the former slaves that she had freed. She's not learning from past mistakes and it's going to finally bite her head off instead of biting her on the ass.
John you said you wish they didn't make these last seasons short and that these should be the ones with 13 episodes for example. But that's actually kinda what happened. I look at it as season 7 and 8 is one final 13 episode season. Because that's how the showrunners look at it, and instead of spending the whole season's budget on 13 episodes, they basically doubled their budget by splitting it into 2 more seasons. Which in the long run will be way worth it. So yes it sucks we have to wait over another year, but I'm sure we'll all be happy they did. There's only so much story left to tell before you can end the whole thing, without dragging things on, and I think this was the best way.
Pretty much love all the videos with Game of Thrones content but your guys' insights to the show are pretty off. When you asked about Uncle Benjen and what his deal was and that girl says "well he was part of the wall and then goes off and Jon goes to find him but couldn't but he did turn but has some sort of powers in him".....ummm...great explanation?
Arya is nuts. I don't mean that in a good way...She just comes rushing in after everything they did to get Winterfell back & now she just moves around & blames Sansa for something, when she was scared & different, young & yes naive, but she thought it was the only way she could save her father, in a way it was possible. Sansa has being trhough enough man. She does not need this crazy brat walking around mentally tormenting her. Arya herself is not even doing anything to help Sansa. She to is a Stark, HELP HER! There is a reason why Sansa goes to Littlefinger. He is a shit, but afterall, he was the one that got her out of that helhole, which is Kings Landing. In Sansas mind, after everything, that does mean something, being around the person that freed her, is comforting to her(which Littlefinger is exploiting). Its suppose to be Arya, or Brienne she should go to, to discuss these things with, but she does not, why? simple: She does not trust Arya as far as she can throw her, & with good reason, Arya has done eveything she can to distance herself from Sansa so far. She trusts Brienne, but Brienne herself has not done much to proove she is more then just someone that can handle a Sword. Not doing anything at the counsel meetings, not being around at her side for some time before now. Just swinging swords..When Brienne is around Sansa, Littlefinger does not wanna make a move, we already saw that. Be there for her! she is all alone in that place! help her! My god I have not liked Arya ever since she returned to Winterfell. All she has done so far, is making things worse... She wanted to be at Winterfell, well now youre there, then Help your sister to maintain it for Jon, instead of mentally tormenting her..After that last scene with the faces, who in there right mind, would ever come near someone like that again? who? I can also answear why Sansa send Brienne away. Its really good mindgame by Littlefinger. He knows Sansa does not listen to him & everything he will say & adwise to do in her mind must be bad & she will basically do the opposite. If Littlefinger wants Brienne to be around Sansa, then Littlefinger must have some sought of plan with Brienne, so better having Brienne away then having her into Litlefingers plans. Besides people. She has so much on her mind, & she does all that on her own. Sometimes its just to much for the mind..She is strong, but she needs Jon & fast. Its like Jon has forgotten them, & her. I do not want that. Know he has not, but its sad seeing her being attacked from all sides including someone thats suuppose to be her family & she has to do it all alone.... Wow! that was a long comment xD
nico olsen that was spot on, I couldn't say it better myself. I hope people are right that this is part of a trap for baelish but if area is seriously faulting her sister as a betrayer she needs to get slapped for real
Benjen cant go south of the wall any way since he is half dead being kept alive with dragon glass in his heart. He wanted to go out and end his suffering by saving his nephew.
From what i gather Benjen had a dragon glass dagger shoved into his heart the moment before he turned into a white walker, placing him in some kind of half state between life and death. It explains why he cannot cross the wall anymore as it has magic in it preventing the dead from doing so.
I agree with Ann, I think Sansa is manipulating arya into a confrontation so that she can imprison her and keep her from ruining her public image and goal of being the actual queen. However, she knows in order to imprison her she will have to order her arrest and it will only happen through violence. If brianne is in winterfell, she wouldn't allow for that to happen. She would control the situation, so the only solution is send her away and Arya will have no-one to protect or help her.
I'm loving this season so far, it's on pace to be the best in my opinion but... what the hell is going on with Arya and Sansa?? Maybe it's just me but their storyline is not working. It came out of nowhere.
Instead of the "convenient" chains, the Night King should have just raised the dragon with a simple wave of the hands, just like he did with all the dead people at Hardhome.
If I was Jon Snow, I'd take a quick detour to Old Town to show the Maesters the Wight, THEN go to Cersei. That way the North, the Targaryen supporters AND the Maesters all believe in the Wights. I feel Cersei is just going to have the Mountain or Qyburn destroy it, similar to how she shrugged off and torn King Robert's will and testimony to have Ned Stark be Protector of the Realm in place of Joffrey until he turned 18.
Benjen getting on would've slowed the horse down and he knew Jon wasn't going to make it if he didn't get back as quick as possible, plus he can't pass the wall so he's stuck either way, why not go out protecting and saving a family member.
Benjen was like halfwight/halfhuman, the Children stopped it before it turned him full wight (never go full wight). Benjen couldn't go south of the Wall.
Ichsuka I'm thinking Iceman or Frozone style Ice-Breathing. Someone pointed out blue fire, as in *really hot* fire, but it would seem like the fire inside Viserion was extinguished.
Awesome stuff in this episode, preposterous how they handle time however. "Send a raven?" Really? Of course we're overrun by the dead, but we totally have time for you to travel to the Wall, for a raven to reach Dragonstone, and for Daenerys to get here. Makes all the sense in the world.
Hey john u still think daenarys is soooo evil after this episode. I mean such an evil person definetely would have risked her own life to save jon and his men, essentially sacrifice her own dragon for them , and then agreed to work with jon to stop the night king even further right?? Only an evil bitch would have convinced jon to WILLINGLY follow her after this episode just like tje dothraki and unsullied have. I mean I bet Cersei would have totally done all of those things if she was there as well.
From the books, I think, young Danni to Viseryus, "It was your fault for not being born a girl" in reference to Rheagar marrying a Martel, then "running off" with Lyanna which caused the rebellion and Rheagar's eventual death at Robert's hand.
Jon is going to get Dany pregnant...only death pays for life...and Dany just lost a dragon...one of her children. That would solve who will sit on the iron throne.
So dragon skyhook. I kinda predicted this last week but didn't expect Dany to arrive with all 3. Though I had heard rumors and if you ever played the telltale game, the last chapter is titled "The Ice Dragon". Need to go back and play that now - got it free with my PSN.
The night king can see the fucking future just like Bran, He was ready, that's why he didn't kill drogon, and that's why he had the chains, fuck the comment sections shitty little plot holes lol
Thought exactly the same as you John, considering just breaking the ice around them, haha. But yeah, lots of action = awesome! but very predictable episode, and a teleporting raven.. And didn't like the whole Sansa co-killed her father.. Come on Arya. - Better than last week episode, and this was a good episode, but no where near the quality writing I expect from a GoT episode.
I'm not that big of a fan of this show (don't kill me) but I really enjoyed this episode and I'm perfectly fine with Jon and Dany just because if nothing else, Jon (for me) makes me like Dany because before I barely could stand her and I feel like he softens her up a bit. That said, I wouldn't surprised if they tease the relationship and then say nah just kidding which I would kinda dislike honestly.
No she had to kill them. Whether beheading or by flame. They were not going to bend the knee. It was respected and they died. She had to wield power. You make an example of some this gives you the ability later to show mercy. By sparing them when your forced to sentence someone to death your put in a position of being seen like you must. She gave them a choice they made it. Now the next time she must make such a choice who she can wield power.
I thought the episode was cool and I've enjoyed the time-jumps for the most part. In this episode it was awesome but silly, and I'm so glad it happened. What I'm referring to is how the Magnificent Seven send Gendry to the Wall to get a raven to Dragonstone for Daenarys to fly all the way North of the wall in the space of half a day? If that?
I watched GoT back when it came out and only made it through a few episodes. Watched this episode with some friends and I thought this was cool af. I definitely want to see more.
Tyrion is the GRRM of the game of thrones universe while Dany is the Audience. He be like no Damnit we will sit around and do nothing for another season/book and Dany is no NO! Fuck that we waited 6 seasons for this shit now lets get some action going!
the reason Benjen said there was "no time" is because Jon was almost frozen to death. Benjen would have slowed the horse down and Jon would have likely frozen before he got to safety.
Francisco Santos its not gymnastics, its what happened. jon barely survived the trip to the wall. after that kind of cold exposure time is of the essence
belakthrillby he could hop on the horse with Jon..... He'll, he could have left Jon escape and then leave on foot.... The white walkers were not catching up to a frozen Jon.... What made him think he wouldn't outrun them when Jon clearly did with little to no effort?
Dany will probably tell him that he doesn't have to bend the knee (he should bend 2. Ha!) and that they will work together without him relinquishing power to her. Also, Coldhands (Uncle Benjen) probably is privy to the fact about Jon's real heritage.
Game of thrones was famous for killing of his popular characters and now its killing its big story build up with rushed seasons to make the fans suffer more.
Negan Lannister I think he actually was aiming at Drogon at first, but then he saw Viserion attacking the dead and flying at him so that's why he decided to kill Viserion first
The Night King is a greenseer like Bran. He lured the dragons over the wall. If you notice when Bran sent the ravens to find the Night King he was on that same rock in the middle of the lake the group ended up on.
The night king has had 8000 years to prepare. They didn't come back until just before dany's dragons returned. So he knew he needed the chain. How else is he gonna make it past the wall? Dragons don't breath ice... my money is on blue flames...
Gendry is both a champion rower and long-distance runner. He must be the Prince that was Promised.
RogerRoger517 and how did they even know he was the fastest. Did they have a race or something before their trip.
Davos must have told them about his rowing ability.
Why has it taken the white walkers 5 seasons to walk to the wall when Gendry can run it in less than a day?
bremendiego1 Maybe the white walkers were preparing themselves for a time when they can cross the wall. If i remember correct,there is magic In the wall that don't allow them to pass
Maybe the Night King didn't have a way to get through the wall until he had himself a dragon? Whats the point of going to a wall he has no way to get though.
Because now they're only 6 hours or so from the wall
Note to self NEVER take The Hound on an expedition
Who got the scare of their life when they thought Tormmud was going to die?
A dragon vs dragon battle would be DOPE!
The thing is that entire plan was stupid. If I'm Jon I don't take 7 guys. I take 100. I pick a spot by the sea and have horses and a boat ready. I take all that Dragon glass I just got and use it with dozens of archers to cover a quick exit onto the boats.
Jay Hyde they would get spotted easy
charles a atleast horses
Gendry runs in a montage with Hearts on Fire playing. He climbs a mountain and yells "Drogon". Soon after Daenerys comes to their aid.
Daenerys is coming after the Night King because he has chains. Daenerys is the breaker of chains.
I think the reason Benjen didn't go with Jon was because, he said that he couldn't go to the wall for some reason. He had a charm or something. That's why he didn't go with Bran last season. He was like, "fuck it, I'll die protecting my nephew".
I really enjoyed the back and forth in this episode. The dialogue was really well written. But in terms of plot, it was a little iffy.
Negan Lannister I enjoyed pretty much all the dialogue. I thought Arya and Sansa's conversations were well written as well as Tyrion and Dany. As I said the overall plot wasn't that great but I'm really big on dialogue and thought I'd give credit where it's due.
How did you guys finish it so fast? It's hasn't ended yet. lol
James Degnan They watched the leaked episode lol
They don't do review copies for GoT anymore, even when they did it was only the first four episodes or so. Anyone that has their edited reaction/review up now have obviously watched the leaked copy. Not that I'm judging, I did too even though I have HBO. Couldn't wait.
no such thing
It starts at 6 in west coast
But in this case he filmed yesterday they were wearing this clothing yesterday as seen in his Facebook post
This episode made me believe the lord of light has a plan for john snow he easily coulda died like 3 times this episode
Cole le John is so stupid he was fighting walkers one by one instead of hopping on drogon
if the walkers cant swim, how did they wrap the dragon with that big ass heavy chain???? i wouldve bought it more if the dragon just flew out from the bottom of the lake unasisted.
The more you think about this episode, the more it just falls apart... real shame
Whoa, I didn't even think about that so true. Good observation.
I think he just made a few walkers do it and they just died in the process
Yeah, 10-20 Wights vs a Dragon. It's a good trade lol
Kaori though...
Dany lost one of her children saving Jon's ass. I don't like that he bent the knee so quickly, but I can understand it.

Michael Rouse I agree and not only flying towards him, but burning up his army too. While Drogon wasn't inflicting too much damage
Night King internal monologue. "Should I kill my main foe's and the big dragon that is sitting still nearby, or should I go for the trick shot on the moving target miles away........... trick shot'.
bremendiego1 😂😂😂
bremendiego1 lol
Night King likes a challenge. It is known.
Ismail .A a small dagger wont kill a whole man😂. God forbid the spear hits a major organ
Lol if you don't like the fucking show, stop watching, my fucking lord.
Jon: Quick! Send a raven to Danerys!
(Tardis lands at dragonstone; door opens and raven flies out)
1Maenad please. If he was in the universe the white walkers would turn and run away.
Koba LOL
Dany and Jon did come to a mutual agreement. She agreed to work with Jon to destroy the White Walkers and then Jon decided to bend the knee.
It's clear that you guys just jumped on the GOT bandwagon, really need to get up on what's going on, like the names of Benjin Stark and Dragonstone and the fact bran wasn't in season 5, he was a huge role in last season and to not remember is crazy.

Remember Jon conversation with torus. To rum told him that pride was one of the reasons the wildlands king did not wanted to bend the knee and that got a lot of wildlands dead.
Blue eyes white dragon
Until the King gets tapped with dragon glass killing him, the dragon, and every other White Walker phantom menace style.
He's not the first one making that comparison.
have to ask. is that a metal chain or one made from ice? figuring the ice king could make it
George ain't writing these episodes. Just a reminder. Another that might be useful, LF got Sansa exactly where he wants her. Go back to "...fight every battle, everywhere, always, in your mind"
Why are so many people hating on this episode? Every time there's a battle in GOT everyone like "ugh this show is turning into fanfic"...but then when there's no battle people say the plot is too slow and boring
So the question is:
Blue Flame? or Ice Breath?
Tormund reminded him that Mance's pride caused several of his people to die.
Plus I mean.. She saved them and sacrificed one of her dragons. Ofcourse he's going to respect that and bend the knee
Miguel Miguel not to mention that she basically bent he knee first and agreed to help destroy the White Workers with Jon. Then he bent the knee.
I can't help but wonder where the Knight King got those huge chains from 🤔
John Alexander saaaaammmmmmeeee
It doesn't matter. Maybe the night king had fucking ice spiders chained up or something who gives a fuck lol
They spend their entire existence on nice and have giants and mammoths. I figure chains make sense.
I still havn't gotten used to how incredibly fast paced the show has become compared to how it used to be. I seems so weird to have Dany go form Dragonstone to North of the Wall in only five minutes.
I known Daenys can't bear anymore children,but maybe she can and it have to be with someone that's blood related to her.

She could have done it quietly behind closed doors. It cost her a LOT of support from the former slaves that she had freed. She's not learning from past mistakes and it's going to finally bite her head off instead of biting her on the ass.
I bawled my eyes out when Viserion died, Night King, you're son of a bitch!!!

I look at it as season 7 and 8 is one final 13 episode season.

what will it take for the dragon to become good again???

how can you guys tell which dragon is which?
It looks like The Hound is going back to Kingslanding with Dany. We could totally get Cleganebowl
Benjen cant go south of the wall any way since he is half dead being kept alive with dragon glass in his heart. He wanted to go out and end his suffering by saving his nephew.
From what i gather Benjen had a dragon glass dagger shoved into his heart the moment before he turned into a white walker, placing him in some kind of half state between life and death. It explains why he cannot cross the wall anymore as it has magic in it preventing the dead from doing so.

This episode was so unexpected in everyway

Instead of the "convenient" chains, the Night King should have just raised the dragon with a simple wave of the hands, just like he did with all the dead people at Hardhome.
Curt Randall yep. It should have swam out itself
If I was Jon Snow, I'd take a quick detour to Old Town to show the Maesters the Wight, THEN go to Cersei. That way the North, the Targaryen supporters AND the Maesters all believe in the Wights. I feel Cersei is just going to have the Mountain or Qyburn destroy it, similar to how she shrugged off and torn King Robert's will and testimony to have Ned Stark be Protector of the Realm in place of Joffrey until he turned 18.
Benjen getting on would've slowed the horse down and he knew Jon wasn't going to make it if he didn't get back as quick as possible, plus he can't pass the wall so he's stuck either way, why not go out protecting and saving a family member.
Benjen was like halfwight/halfhuman, the Children stopped it before it turned him full wight (never go full wight). Benjen couldn't go south of the Wall.
But does the undead dragon breathe fire or ice? Even in fantasy, breathing ice doesn't really make sense.
Ichsuka I'm thinking Iceman or Frozone style Ice-Breathing. Someone pointed out blue fire, as in *really hot* fire, but it would seem like the fire inside Viserion was extinguished.
love you guys!!! now i wait to you upload to watch your review first!!!!!
Awesome stuff in this episode, preposterous how they handle time however. "Send a raven?" Really? Of course we're overrun by the dead, but we totally have time for you to travel to the Wall, for a raven to reach Dragonstone, and for Daenerys to get here. Makes all the sense in the world.
Death was the only plausible outcome, that's why you _don't_ put them in that situation in the first place.
That Ice Dragon is dangerous. Ice is super effective against Dragon, as we all know.
It just finished Aring a few minutes ago, there's no way you watched it legally.
Is euron still a thing?
Hey john u still think daenarys is soooo evil after this episode. I mean such an evil person definetely would have risked her own life to save jon and his men, essentially sacrifice her own dragon for them , and then agreed to work with jon to stop the night king even further right?? Only an evil bitch would have convinced jon to WILLINGLY follow her after this episode just like tje dothraki and unsullied have. I mean I bet Cersei would have totally done all of those things if she was there as well.
captaintorch123 Did you not listen at all to this episode?
From the books, I think, young Danni to Viseryus, "It was your fault for not being born a girl" in reference to Rheagar marrying a Martel, then "running off" with Lyanna which caused the rebellion and Rheagar's eventual death at Robert's hand.
thank you for the review :) always look forward to this after the show ends
Jon is going to get Dany pregnant...only death pays for life...and Dany just lost a dragon...one of her children. That would solve who will sit on the iron throne.
So dragon skyhook. I kinda predicted this last week but didn't expect Dany to arrive with all 3. Though I had heard rumors and if you ever played the telltale game, the last chapter is titled "The Ice Dragon". Need to go back and play that now - got it free with my PSN.
yes the dragon is a white walker not a white dont know why ppl keep calling him a white
the chain could be part of a plot to bring down the Wall. Or the Night King could also be a greenseer, a different version of the 3 eyed raven
The Night King is the most frightening character that's ever been on the series. He's pure nihilism.
Next on GOT Episode 7:
littlefinger dies via ARYA, night king starts to take down the wall with ice dragon, Jon and Dany fuck via boat,
I already knew all this but like why you gotta be a dick and spoil it for people that don't want it to be spoiled
The night king can see the fucking future just like Bran, He was ready, that's why he didn't kill drogon, and that's why he had the chains, fuck the comment sections shitty little plot holes lol
Corey Baker precisely one wight doesn't evaporates when Jon kills the leader..... Precisely the one they need.... Great writing
If the white dragon is needed to get past the wall, the contrived steal a white plot becomes the most contrived plot in TV history.
i prefer to call the white walker's minions "frost zombies"
Thought exactly the same as you John, considering just breaking the ice around them, haha.
But yeah, lots of action = awesome! but very predictable episode, and a teleporting raven.. And didn't like the whole Sansa co-killed her father.. Come on Arya. - Better than last week episode, and this was a good episode, but no where near the quality writing I expect from a GoT episode.
I'm not that big of a fan of this show (don't kill me) but I really enjoyed this episode and I'm perfectly fine with Jon and Dany just because if nothing else, Jon (for me) makes me like Dany because before I barely could stand her and I feel like he softens her up a bit. That said, I wouldn't surprised if they tease the relationship and then say nah just kidding which I would kinda dislike honestly.
Why does the uncle look like he belongs in the polar express movie
No she had to kill them. Whether beheading or by flame. They were not going to bend the knee. It was respected and they died. She had to wield power. You make an example of some this gives you the ability later to show mercy. By sparing them when your forced to sentence someone to death your put in a position of being seen like you must. She gave them a choice they made it. Now the next time she must make such a choice who she can wield power.
Dany still a villain now?
I thought the episode was cool and I've enjoyed the time-jumps for the most part. In this episode it was awesome but silly, and I'm so glad it happened. What I'm referring to is how the Magnificent Seven send Gendry to the Wall to get a raven to Dragonstone for Daenarys to fly all the way North of the wall in the space of half a day? If that?
theYoungNation time travel spell
rusedgin Probably the lord of light up to his old tricks
I watched GoT back when it came out and only made it through a few episodes. Watched this episode with some friends and I thought this was cool af. I definitely want to see more.
Tyrion is the GRRM of the game of thrones universe while Dany is the Audience.
He be like no Damnit we will sit around and do nothing for another season/book and Dany is no NO! Fuck that we waited 6 seasons for this shit now lets get some action going!
That's why it's taking so long for the walkers to reach the wall because they have to carry those heavy long chains. Duh!
should have stated it "Spoilers Alert" but nooooooooOOOOO!!!!
How is Tyrion a standout, or are people just saying it coz he's a favorite!
Campea, did you have something to do with the leak? Cuz twitter has you watching Hamilton right now. ;) hehe
Maybe Little Finger wanted Brienne gone. That way he can try to take Arya out without any interference from her sworn protector.
I think bran stark will control that ice dragon to distract knight king so that they can kill the ice dragon
Simultaneously one of the best and worst episodes of GoT.
Who all think these girls have already read the leaked scripts ..give a thumbs up ..
the reason Benjen said there was "no time" is because Jon was almost frozen to death. Benjen would have slowed the horse down and Jon would have likely frozen before he got to safety.
belakthrillby the mental gimnastics people are doing to excuse the shitty writing are out of control
Francisco Santos its not gymnastics, its what happened. jon barely survived the trip to the wall. after that kind of cold exposure time is of the essence
belakthrillby he could hop on the horse with Jon..... He'll, he could have left Jon escape and then leave on foot.... The white walkers were not catching up to a frozen Jon.... What made him think he wouldn't outrun them when Jon clearly did with little to no effort?
Dany will probably tell him that he doesn't have to bend the knee (he should bend 2. Ha!) and that they will work together without him relinquishing power to her. Also, Coldhands (Uncle Benjen) probably is privy to the fact about Jon's real heritage.
Game of thrones was famous for killing of his popular characters and now its killing its big story build up with rushed seasons to make the fans suffer more.
Bran is the Night King so he foresaw the Dragon going down. That's how he knew to pack the chains.
Why didn't the Night King throw his high level ice spears at the men on the Island?
bremendiego1 why would he waste spears on men?
Negan Lannister I think he actually was aiming at Drogon at first, but then he saw Viserion attacking the dead and flying at him so that's why he decided to kill Viserion first
I love your reviews! Thank you very much guys!!
don't forget to do a review of Hamilton! and Summer Slam! Wow what a busy Sunday.
Uncle Benjen say he can't go pass the wall from last season.
Travel time has been thrown completely out the window
I don't see how anyone can win now. The night king took down a dragon so easily and now he has as a pet. Every character in Game of Thrones is doomed.
Roland Wright lol. The plot will be the doom of the Night King.
The Night King is a greenseer like Bran. He lured the dragons over the wall. If you notice when Bran sent the ravens to find the Night King he was on that same rock in the middle of the lake the group ended up on.
Now we know that it was Seto Kaiba that became the Night King.
Everyone is panicking over nothing with the Stark sisters.
I think the episode will end with the dragon breaking the wall
The night king has had 8000 years to prepare. They didn't come back until just before dany's dragons returned. So he knew he needed the chain. How else is he gonna make it past the wall?
Dragons don't breath ice... my money is on blue flames...
Who is Kaori? So cute :)
Brienne won't even be needed in Kingslanding cuz Jon Snow will be there.
