  1. I'm sure I'm repeating things said earlier, but here goes -- I was sorry that there was only another stone windmill, and no Queenscrown tower in the middle of a lake. But, unless there was already such a tower somewhere in Northern Ireland, it was probably beyond their budget to create it. I wonder if Osha and Rickon will have any scenes next season as they travel to Last Hearth. I'll miss Osha. I always enjoyed watching Natalia Tena do her thing as that character. Jon was doing Ygritte a favor by abandoning her. He couldn't take her with him back to the Wall. Looks like Jon got away without an arrow in his leg, unlike in the book. I wonder if next season's comedy duo of Arya and the Hound will be as entertaining as Tyrion and Bronn? As for the Red Wedding, I wonder how many viewers will be so angry that they will quit watching? Of course, if they stick around for next season, they may be happy to see some Lannisters meet with misfortune. I was interested to see the bread and salt hospitality ritual with the Starks and Freys. It's a pretty basic rule that you can't murder your guests after they eat your bread and salt. The Frey's name and honor will be in the dirt after this. I believe in the book that Catelyn killed a minor Frey, some mentally challenged guy who functioned as a jester? For some reason, they changed that to Walder's latest wife. I was hoping that, since they changed it from the book, that she would have gone after Walder, himself. The way the scene was set up, she could have done it fairly easily. Very tough to see Talisa killed so brutally. I guess the suspician that she was a Lannister spy was a red herring. If she had been, one would think that the Lannisters would have protected her. but you never know with the Freys
  2. Maybe I'm wrong, but it looked like Sam left the dragonglass knife behind when he and Gilly took off after killing the Walker. If so, very stupid. But Sam isn't a quick thinker.
  3. I was sad that Hodor had only one line. It looks like Osha and Rickon may split off from the group after all.
  4. I enjoy the Jaime/Brienne show even more than the Tyrion/Bronn show. They don't even need to talk much - just looking at each other, something happens that goes out to the audience.
  5. I enjoyed most of the scenes in this episode. Hated the Theon torture interlude, had to turn my face away. As others have said, there is a contract with Alfie Allen and they need to give him scenes. I wish this could have been put off until Season 5. Unlike some here, I hated watching it. Next viewing I'll fast forward through it. Even though it deviated from the book, I enjoyed the intensity of the Melisandre/forest brotherhood scene. It wouldn't surprise me if, instead of Edric Storm, Davos frees Gendry. Maisie is such a good actress. I bet that Sam's obsidian knife will come in handy.
  6. The duel between Beric Dondarrion and the Hound was fun to watch, but I had one big problem with it. Both were wearing shields and hardly used them. If you've got a shield, you use it to block your opponent's sword, freeing your own sword to be a completely offensive weapon. In this duel, most of the time they were using their swords to parry. I'm sure the choreographers knew that this was unrealistic, but decided to give the audience what it wanted and expected, lots of edge on edge blade clashing. In my opinion, the best swordfight in GoT so far has been the one between Jaime and Ned Stark in Season 1
