Hombre de Murcielago

Solid 9/10 Easily the best episode so far this season. I loved the Arya vs Brienne training scene. The battle was fantastic, the first this season that lived up to previous seasons. Mark Mylod does well with dialog, but he would have ruined the battle at the end. I'm thankful that they didn't give this episode to him.

Hot Pie gets a 10/10 I give the rest of the episode a 6

9/10 Great episode, but not quite perfect. Maisie Williams and Peter Dinklage continue to nail every scene they are in, but I'm consistently disappointed when Sansa or Draco Malfoy (Joffrey) are in a scene. The lack of direwolves during the fight in the woods was also a disappointment. Overall the series appears to have finally picked up momentum and this episode did an excellent job of keeping it going.

I joined the forums a few years ago looking for more information on A Dance with Dragons. I've stopped in from time to time to read the rumors and enjoy the various theories, but I never posted. I enjoy the community, so perhaps I'll start posting more.
