Jslay427 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 The way an episode ends always plays a big role in how I view the episode overall. Obviously episode 2 was epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P. frontalis chiripepe Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I would give it an 8. It had more action than 401, but I still liked 401 a bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Godric Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I gave it an 8, it really wasn't as good as I was hoping it'd be. I thought the wedding would be more dramatic, chaotic and overall just better. Good to see Joff dead but not as good as I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widows_Blood Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I gave it a 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zman1863 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I think they pulled it off decently, though some of the scenes seemed a bit fatty on the Kings Landing end of things. Also apprehensive about where they are going with the Shae thing, though I have ideas which lead them to the same end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn is Coming Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I give it an 8 as well. Good amount of KL scenes, some decent Bolton stuff, and the ending really just boosted up the score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Died a Hero Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) 9 Was a bit slow for an R.R. episode. Loved Reek. The telling of Robb's death while the blade was right at this neck was amazing. Stanis was boring. They really are taking the teeth away from him. I understand why they changed Bronn to Jaime's trainer, camera time and all, but it does take away from the on-the-nose training of Ser Payne. The Red Viper was again, very Red Viper. Joff's death was perfect. He was just the right shade of purple. All and all I was ready to give this episode a 6 or 7. Then I noticed the three musicains playing the Rain's for Joff was fucking Sigur Rós! I shouted, "Dude, that's fucking Sigur Rós!!!!" Everyone in the room just stared at me. Instantly boosted my rating to a 9. Edited April 14, 2014 by Died a Hero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 7/10 for pre-wedding, 9/10 for the wedding, split difference call the episode an 8/10. I thought pre-wedding the scenes just didn't do enough, they were mostly reminders that these characters exist (particularly for the Dragonstone crew). I did like the scene between Roose and Ramsay, but it went on too long. Bran's vision was pretty good too. The wedding was great. It was awesome seeing so many characters all in one place again, and all the different interactions. Plus the ending of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady of Dragonstone Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I gave it an eight. Great acting, stunning sets and costumes. I didn't like some of the textual changes, but it's nothing I can't live with. Really left me wanting more :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Stark Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I gave it a generous 8, kind of choppy, the Bolton stuff was very good, Joff's death was good, not nearly as good as last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhawk137 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) 9. It should really probably be an 8, but I'm giddy right now. Edited April 14, 2014 by Warhawk137 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 An 8 for me. The Joffrey-Tyrion build up was excellent, but there were a lot of vignettes at the wedding that I didn't find compelling -- too many hammering-the-point moments (Oberyn with his triple "former queen regent", Cersei's "But you love Jaime") which felt labored. Even GRRM can't manage to be subtle on this show. The Bolton material was, OTOH, very good, and I'm liking the family dynamic focus of our first reintroduction to Dragonstone. Nice Bran bit with the vision and the voice of the three-eyed crow, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalibakCruel Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Loved it. 9/10. Liked the Bronn and Jaime scene. Liked the reek, Ramsay and Roose scene. Purple Wedding was great. Loved Oberyn scene. Just a good episode imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Señor de la Tormenta Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I give it a 5. Stannis butchery continues but there was no Daenerys...so I look at the bright side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batavian Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Not quite as good as the premiere. Love the Dreadfort and scenes of Ramsey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmarshal Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) I gve it a seven, for the most part it was awesome, but it lost a point for making Mace less power hungry and less assertive and 2 for killing Axell and making him a seven worshipper!

jom Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 It was a bit choppy. Lena headey was terrific though. Gave it a 9. jom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the Sword of the Prevening Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 8. Decided to read the books after season 3, so this was the first big moment that I already knew was coming. Most likely altered how I felt about it, but I'm sure those that had no idea were shocked. Expected a little more for Joff's death, but still pretty good.
