Why they would ride into the darkness without knowing what was out there...and with fire swords lit so every dead could see them coming was stupid though.

They had 2 dragons..why not wait until the dead charged and just roast them from the air. Why be outside the fortress at all...just have the dragons perched on the wall. All the people who die will just become the dead themselves.
It didn't really even make sense in the context of the rest of the battle. The Dothraki were defeated in...what...15 seconds or so? You know, the group that is famed for its effectiveness and brutality on horseback. But then everyone else lasts over an hour?

I agree that it was a cool look and set an ominous tone, but it didn't make any sense, either tactically or in terms of the outcome.
