Obsidian Knight

I rated it 6. Because it could have been much worse. There were many things I liked about this episode. There weren't unnecessary deaths. No epic battles. No random surprises. Just a calm ending of the show. Though it was very cliche. Dany started to remind a dictator. I still cannot understand why she changed so much. In the last episode she was so very wrong as never before. She cared about children and innocents but now suddenly she is so cruel... Ok, let it be mad queen. Anyway she and Jon could't be together. Her death was beautiful and Drogon melting the iron throne too. Though I waited that Tyrion will kill her. Some stuff was kind of strange. But I loved that in the end this is the story of Starks like it was in the beginning. Jon reminded me of Aemon who also served in the NW though he was a rightful heir. Jon's place is in the north. And people love him there. So for me it was a very nice ending. As I said - after this not so spectacular season it could be much worse.

Very strange aftertaste. It's like everything's wrong. All the characters ruined. All of them. I hope that GRRM will write his own story. I hope that this ridiculous ending will inspire him to write. Because what I saw was ridiculous. Some whys. Why GRRM didn't write scripts for these series? (can somebody answer?) What the hell happened to Cersei always staring expressionless until she is just killed by bricks? Wtf is this? At least they died together though I hope that Cersei survived. This death just doesn't feel right. Why Dany just burned everyone? Why? What happened to her when she started to burn children? They didn't even show her face. Maybe she fell from her dragon and he went nuts? Everything can happen in this show. Even the most absurd things... I understand that she's mad a bit. But why so violent? Wtf with Jon? Just watcing how Varys gets burned. What is he thinking? He loved Ygritte too but this love wasn't blind. Is he just tired? At least now he will take some action. Same about Tyrion. When did he become so blind? Staring sadly after making the hundreth mistake. Two characters I hate - Euron and Bronn. They should have killed Bronn long ago but he keeps appearing and makes everything so boring. And that huge role they gave to Euron. And that shitty death. Those lame scorpions. But no... They will kill Bronn in the last episode. That should be the Night King's episode. That useless Bran. He could be something! We will never know. I liked the fight between the Mountain (Varysface) and the Hound. Really liked.

It's good that Melisandre came to bring some light to this episode so we could see something. The battle strategy was very strange. Dragons could do much more. They coud actually burn the dead ones at least. I like the scene with Dothraki running to their death though it was useless. They would be much more useless without those burning arakhs. Dany could be more wise not to doom all her army. Dragons should be those who start the action. This episode was too epic for my taste. The battles like Loot train attack, Wildlings versus Night's Watch or The battle of bastards gave me shivers. This battle didn't. They saved all the main characters. Killed some not so important ones like Edd. Just to kill somebody. Maybe the battle wasn't so impressive because I waited for this battle since the Episode 1. And it's always awkward when everything comes to an end. So the battle was funny and serious in the same time. I'm happy the WW plot is finished. I still cannot understand why WW were roaming in the rooms of Winterfell? Couldn't they seal or lock all the doors? How did they gnaw into the crypts? I was all for "more epic" sake and I didn't like it. Also Theon's epic death. Daenery's fighting beside poor Jorah. I knew Beric would die. His death was the best one in this episode (except NK of course). I'm disappointed. The battle even seemed boring sometimes. Maybe I should watch it once more.

Ok, I give ten. There are many things that could be better but I cannot complain at all. What I loved about this episode: Littlefinger's death. When he spoke to Sansa about Arya's evil plans, I thought "come on, Sansa, you cannot be that stupid". And the end of this cunning character was amazing. Littlefinger on his knees praying for mercy... I wanted to see this so bad! It was too satisfying. Life teached Arya and Sansa a lesson. And it was amazing to see that they learned something from it. Ned would be proud. Well, I'm waiting to see Arya with LF's face now. Jon and Dany together. I read books and dreamt to see them together. At last it is happening. And it doesn't matter at all whether they are aunt and nephew. I wanted to see it from the very beginning. Ice and fire. It's a pity that the scene was so short. Theon. I really wanted this miserable guy to do something with his miserable existence. I thought that he's gonna die in that fighting scene. I suppose his experience made him somewhat of a masochist. Now he's reborn. He will not be coward again. He will not give up though it hurts like hell. He's ready to die for his sister. Ice dragon. I didn't like the mission that killed the dragon. There could be a better way to turn a dragon without all that illogical stuff. But I love the result. He chopped a piece of the Wall like it's a piece of cake. It was a great ending of this season. Jaimie. Seeing him leaving his sister... At last. He was a marionette for too long. Snow (not Jon) in King's Landing. It was the perfect timing. My heart shivered. What I was not impressed about: The meeting. I suppose that was so hard to bring everyone together. Cersey and Dany. Brothers Sandor and Mountain. Random dothraki and so on. Theon and Euron. Lannister family. Well, the meeting seemed awkward. But it was necessary. It was a tough scene to make. I liked the wight part though. Bran. I don't like how he works. I still haven't figured out how he works. It's like he's seeing everything but at the same time seeing nothing unless someone says something. Then he travels to places and sees marriages. Rhaegar. I don't think that anybody liked him. But I was impressed. Winter is coming. Waiting for the next season may begin.

I would love to see Sansa betraying Littlefinger as he betrayed her father. Actually, when Arya gave Littlefinger's knife to Sansa it could be a hint to kill him so Arya could use his face for sisters to achieve a common goal. To kill Cersey.

I agree. I didn't get it either. If she promised to protect both the girls, then why is Sansa sending her away? Does she really want to deal with her sister with Littlefinger's help though she has seen her sister's skills.

I have controversial thoughts about this episode. I cannot rate it. I was already afraid that their mission "Get a Wight for Cersei" will turn into a disaster -- one of Dany's dragons will be turned. And it happened. The episode was entertaining and I watched it with an open mouth but I hated many things about it. The way Benjen Stark died. It was horrible. I couldn't believe it... Such a fighter and survivor. They could run away together! It reminded me so much about the way Selmy died. Totally unneeded to kill for a killing's sake. Jon fighting the wights when everybody else was on the dragon ready to leave. That was dumb. That metal chain in the end.What the ````? Arya. Why is she doing this to her sister? It seems so mean. But OK. That was just annoying. Totally unplanned mission. I don't believe that they couldn't think of a more logistic plan to capture a wight. Why they didn't take the ravens? Why they cannot ride on the horses like Benjen does? (Why don't they wear the hats? That's my eternal question.) Et cetera. The Hound throwing stones at the wights. Really? The moments that I liked: WW killing dragon. Conversation between Tormund and the Hound. A moment in the boat where Dany sees Jon "taking knife in his heart for his people". The moment when Jon calls Dany his queen. The polar bear injuring Thoros.

I give it 9. Some unexpected events took place like "Jon is not a bastard" and "Lannisters have future". And I waited for Jorah and Dany's reunion. Though I start to dislike Arya. She became cunning in a dark sort of way. Like that Faceless girl the Waif.

After watching the whole 5th season I need to re-read the last two books because they've changed and cut so many plots that I don't understand now what G.R.R. Martin has actually written and what was changed in the series. :stillsick:

I've waited for this episode and it was well done. The ending brought tears in my eyes though I knew what was gonna happen. The way how Freys killed Talisa added even more tragedy to this massacre. Though it's so sad and disturbing to watch Starks die, the revenge will come, I believe it. The North remembers.

I am disappointed in this episode. :( Rob's marriage was something strange. I thought that there would be a moment when she says that she's not from Volantis and her name is Jeyne Westerling. Still I cannot understand why such a departure from the book. And seven gods... when he was so like his father. Second disappointment was Theon and the fall of Winterfell. Who burned it in the series? Some men from Pyke? No Reeds, no Ramsay, no flayed men. The scene with Sam was alright though those "men" looked like zombies from some zombie film. Scene with Dany was bad. I liked Drogo and the baby, but I've waited for more. Brienne seemed very merciless though in the book she found it difficult to kill. Where's Dontos? Ah, and Stannis strangling Melisandre. It's even worse than f```ing her. But I liked the scene with the Faceless man. (: The first season was much much better!
