Watched it again today. Still just exasperated. Amazing how I knew it was coming and still just how impactful that was. 2 new thoughts. At first I wasn't to happy with the way they handled Grey Wind. I originally wished for him to go out fighting like he actually did. However, watching again and thinking about it I think the way they did it was better. For many people (myself included) its more difficult to watch animals/pets die than people on tv shows. They obviously had to show this but hid most of him so we got the point. Otherwise they would have prob showed a graphic axe to the head full body shot of poor Grey Wind which would have been bitterly tough. And I have never felt a bigger pit form in my stomach or a bigger sense of dread during a movie/show as I felt when they started playing 'rains' at the wedding and Cat gets that look on her face. Just never imagined they could get it to be that brutal.
