oh yeah, whatever battle is in episode 5, it’s not on the scale they did for episode 3. Or what I’m guessing anyway.

Very few series end well. 95% of the popular ones disappoint their fans with the series finale. Nature of the beast maybe?:hmmm:

but even if that is one of the surprises/plot twists coming, it wouldn’t really be all that surprising. If the Avengers can do time travel, the Night King can rise again.

I loved the scene w Tyrion and Sansa in the crypt. It felt so real.

I also loved the shot of the dragons above the storm and the Dothraki getting their light snuffed out. Both were just visually stunning.

Can you chew gum and walk at the same time? I have my doubts. Seriously, you seem like your on the near slope of the IQ distribution curve.

Don't be disappointed when you are wrong. The writers have sucked ass since they ran out of book material. Maybe they'll surprise me, but this just feels like it's going to end way more predictably than I would have guessed.

One episode to regroup. One episode to fight Cersi. Arya kills Cersi, fulfilling the prophecy and crossing the last name off of her list. One episode to wrap it up. Jon sits on the iron throne. Fade to black.

Again, it's possible I'll be wrong, but this was the episode to do something unexpected. They didn't.

Meh. Sure. Fly your fat-ass out to PHX and I'll give you a nice heaping of whoop-ass to go along with breakfast. Do you prefer pancakes or omulets?

Note: It's not my problem you have to pay for two seats. That's God telling you to get on a ****ing treadmill.

It’s always fun when someone tries to make themselves look intelligent with a clever insult, but they don’t realize that they are so far off the mark that they just end up making themself look incredibly stupid. Also, it’s “you’re”.

Here's my prediction......

[SPOILERS BELOW DO NOT READ]




Bran is the Night King - The Arya moment was destined. Bran/Night King knew this...... The Jon Snow/Dany army is depleted - it's practically nothing. Because Dany is stubborn, she'll march on Kings Landing and lose. Bran - will be there, and will suddenly raise everyone from the dead - including Jon/Dany - the wight's will take Kings Landing and a blue-eyed Jon/Dany will take the throne and winter will continue.

Oh shit. I damn near walked into a doorframe and didn't realize I ****ed up. Thanks for looking out Hoss.

Blizzard has some god awful story-booking right now. You'd fit right in.

It was well done for what it was, but I was expecting something...more interesting.

I felt a bit of this but it was amazing, if predictable. I got a bit annoyed at how characters would be surrounded by 100 undead and then later they’re hacking and slashing through hordes that they’d never be able to actually escape. The moment when the NK launches round two of undead and I though Jon was a goner I did think they just might go there and kill everyone.

There are other stories you could have told differently but this checked all the boxes. If winterfell had been a diversion and the NK was marching toward kings landing then I’d probably be more invested in the final episodes but that’s only because we’re going from the ultimate battle back to politics. Nothing wrong with it, and I have faith that they’ll deliver a brilliant final three episodes even if the stakes are lower than tonight.
