can someone explain to me how a battalion of ships manages to hide behind a small island but still has line of sight to shoot a dragon out of the sky before being revealed ?
there also were like four scenes where i want a mash-up with gob from arrested development saying "i've made a huge mistake"
- Not sure how much practice they’ve had shooting flying dragons from a rocking boat half a km away but first shot right to the heart?_niko
- And then Dany doesn't circle around to *draconis* the ships from behind?i_monk
- ^this! Also attacking directly from above would work pretty well. Just fly high and descend from abovesarahfailin

That ep was A+. Felt like the earlier seasons. Damn it sucks this show is ending.
"Musta felt good sticking a knife in that horned fucker."
- disagree. the entire opposing force right there and cersi doesn't just outright kill them all? win the war? and the throne? totally out of character.colin_s
- You could pick apart every single moment in every genre film/show this way. i.e. Why didn't Gandalf just fly the ring to Mordor?inteliboy
- "pfffft, that's so unbelievable grumble grumble"inteliboy
- Yes LOTR is regarded as a classic when in fact it's totally ludicrous "just call in the eagles again guys"yuekit

HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT EVEN GONNA PET GHOST AND TELL HIM HE'S A GOOD BOY BEFORE YOU SEND HIM AWAY!?!?
Did anyone catch Euron's face when Tyrion mentioned Cercei's baby? Granted, he's got smarts as deep as a puddle, but...ya never know if he puts 2 and 2 together.

Lets get ready, I can't wait to see Gilly kill The Mountain when she throws baby Sam at him!

How does it work? In Uruguay (gmt-3) new episode premieres at 10pm. What time does it stream in your countries?
- i am probably the only person in the world that didn't watch even an episoderenderedred
- thanks for your input renderedred. lolpango
- I have never watched a single episode, but I binge watch every episode recap on Youtube, true story.utopian

- That was an invading army, not an immigrant population.cannonball1978
- walkers aside... didn't the majority of the Dothraki get wiped out in the opening charge?PonyBoy
- and regardless... IT'S A FUCKING STORY!! lol... I've been reading comments on other sites w/the article... people speak about it like it's 'real'... so weird.PonyBoy

- I love the show, but it was dark as fuck and really hard to see what was going on.PhanLo
- someone tell him he is producing for tv and streaming, not cinema.
bet on a superfancy oled tv in a losless format it looks great.uan - He didn't watch it on regular HBO then. I have a new, 4k, balls deep tv, and there was no variation in the darks.section_014
- Contrast that to Lord of the Rings Helms Deep battle, for instance, where everything is sharp and easy to see.section_014
- I watched it on the big telly with the lights out, still couldn't see fuck all in parts.PhanLo
- had to set my monitor Contrast and Brightness to 100%Bennn
- Ditto, turned TV up full brightness contrast, played with all settings, still couldn't see a fucking thing. still great but the darkness did spoil it a bitdee-dubs
- You're supposed to watch in a dark room, like a cinema, with gamma set correctly.monospaced
- Nahhh press people saw it in the threatened with the uncompressed quality. They say it was beautiful.pango
- The problem was really the compressed quality for streaming and TV. I bet it will be fine on BluRay.pango
- *theatre...pango
- added to the suspense, I thoughtProjectile
- it did add to the suspense, then just got a little annoying. felt like a mistake more than a creative choice.inteliboy
- It looked like how it would have probably felt to be there.wordssssss

It was a great episode if all you want is dragons and explosions, but wasn't the show originally supposed to be about more than that?
Can't help thinking it's the latest hyped TV series that raised a lot of intriguing plot points and mysteries in its early seasons, but ultimately failed to deliver on them.
- went downhill as soon as they ran out of the source material_niko
- and maybe that's why martin can't finish the books, he's written himself into a corner that he can't get out of._niko
- yeah once the writers had to think for themselves, it shows how good martin was/is and how poor hollywood ideas are in comparisoncolin_s

Right on!Bennn - I disagree. This has been a show of evolving conflict and a plot directed towards obvious war yet we've had about three battle episodes in 7 seasons.CyBrainX

That payoff at the end! So good. They are going to move shit right along, which I'm so glad about. There was about 20 minutes of darkness where I didn't have any idea who was fighting whom. I guess we'll find out who's left alive...
- you have to really have your TV and digital stream dialed in. Lots of people had issues gradations and pixelated blacks. I'd like to see it on a proper..BH26
- high end screen as intended. Some nice low light shots.BH26
- My friend said she was watching it on her family's top-o-the-line tv and it was still crapsarahfailin
- Yeah. I watched it twice and it was made dark on purpose.CyBrainX

- I was laughing so hard at Barry. Holy shit that whole episode was so funny. And the possessed daughter out of this world was hilarious.Boz
- whats that?Bennn
- Barry on HBO. This episode came on right after the big battle on GOT.Ramanisky2

The real question is after this episode.. Is Arya actually Azor Ahai - The Prince That Was Promised ? Sure looks like it.
"If you're unfamiliar with the prophecy, the prince that was promised is implied to be the reincarnation of Azor Ahai, a legendary warrior who lived thousands of years ago. According to Melisandre, a red priestess of the Lord of Light, the prophecy goes like this: "Darkness will fall heavy on the world. Stars will bleed. The cold breath of winter will freeze the seas, and the dead shall rise in the North. In the ancient books, it is written that a warrior will draw a burning sword from the fire. And that sword will be the Lightbringer."
- Nerd alert!BK
- : osea_sea
- She didn't draw a burning sword from a fire... but with RR's shit writing, who's paying attention to details!zarkonite
- Maybe she did, symbolically, through BericBrokenHD
- "The word for “prince” in Valyrian is actually gender-neutral, meaning the prophecy could be the Prince That Was Promised — or the Princess That Was Promised."whatthefunk
- hehe wtf ;)jaylarson
- Dany is Azor Ahai, she's the best fit for the prophecy.i_monk

The first seasons' writing was a notch higher than the last 2-3 seasons i think. That said, I still really like the show.
- Not a notch, I believe the term is a metric fuck-ton. I too, enjoy the show, but it's a mess.DRIFTMONKEY
- yepBennn
- Agreed Bennnyuekit

So, Arya managed to run and jump on the Night King ... there were zombies all around the white tree, but she managed to go right there without alarming anybody.
That was a very solid episode, but I think the way the end of the Night King and all his zombies occure was a little bit disappointing.
And I was expecting way more big names to get killed.
- She was training for good 7 seasons to become batman. She was also blind for a while. Not surprising to me she is that sneaky.pango
- I thought it was perfect. The whole reason why she took off running from the library was to get to where she knew the NK would be: that tree w/ Bransarahfailin

well the good thing is, when George Martin gets around to finally writing the conclusion, it'll be nothing like this, not even close.
this will be a bad dream or an alternate reality as witnessed by the raven, a big what if.
Martin's version will be bloody, brutal and unfair. but glorious.
- but who shot JR?MrT
- martin needs to put down the cruller and pick up the pensarahfailin
