Señor de la Tormenta Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 First 40 minutes were boring as a dumphair chapter. I was giving it a 3....the last 20 were far better. It climbed to a 7, but Im just to tired of the almost Stark reunion been done so many times.Its a 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWhiteRabbit Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Kind of an average episode honestly. I was going to give it a 7 until the awesome ending, so a very generous 8. Definitely the weakest EP of the season. Can't wait for the trial next episode!EDIT: it deserves a 7 lol Edited May 5, 2014 by TheWhiteRabbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florina Laufeyson Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 That was a solid 9 due to all the shit they crammed into it. This was the Info Dump Episode and while there wasnt a lot of action, there was a lot of nuggets of stuff that help move the plot along. Plus the Craster's Keep business was awesome.

Jamie Lannister Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) 5/10. Felt slow and plodding for most of the episode, with some truly stupid scenes (Jojen the pyromancer? What?) and a rather unengaging feel. The ending was admittedly fun and I liked the Eyrie save for the really inelegant exposition about Lysa's misdeeds, but overall it was by far the worst ep of the season. At least the effects were decent? Edited May 5, 2014 by Jamie Lannister Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Guava Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 (Jojen the pyromancer? What? Assuming it was a visual metaphor for his deteriorating condition, no? Like a vision of himself only he sees? Served well enough, I thought. Anyway, I appreciate the show best when it combines the longer sequences with the "catching up" exposition episodes. Wolf and Hound scenes made me lol. Gave it a solid 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCon's Red Beard Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Nothing happened, really. Dunno, Lysa and Jon were the highlights. Also, Jojen being all "you're so dead right now" level of creepy. 7, I guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have gotten a rather large reaction from everyone had he actually created fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyrion Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I thought it was Jojen seeing his death, but slowly deteriorating makes more sense. He definitely knows hes going to die, since he said to Meera it doesn't matter, so thats good. He is aware of his mortality, which wasnt hinted at atall in the show yet. Anyways, I thought this filler stuff could have been good even if it mean Coldhands was gone, but overall it was a waste of time, nothing even came out of it. If like maybe we learned something new(and the White Walker stuff could have been done last season with no difference) or new character something that would make the change worth it, but looking back at it, Coldhands would have been better.

Jslay427 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Locke dying surprised me a lot. Agree with it being weakest episode so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjaario Starkharis Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 It wasn't a bad episode, but nothing really big happened. Gave it an 8, mostly because of Lysa and the showdown at Craster's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franko99 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 7/10 Good episode, but nothing really big happened. My only complains are all small ones, like Rast death (I know all the CGI budget goes to the dragons, but we deserved to see some direwolf badassery) or Dany scene feels to rushed again, like they could have explain her reason to stay a bit better, and how the hell the news of Joff's death arrive so fast LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonDunn Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Are you guys nuts? Weakest episode of the bunch? IT was great! Everything Vale/Arya/Jon/Oberyn was pretty fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Pipes Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 7/10. Weakest episode of the season and I'm concerned because I think D and D have written the three weakest episodes of the season. Though I liked the season premiere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fevre River Warrior Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I loved this episode and gave it a 10. I thought it was fabulous that Locke got what was coming to him, Jon and the NW got rid of those vipers at Crasters, Bran/Hodor/Summer/Meera and Jojen were on their way.....and the "good guys" finally won something. It was nice to finally see the good guys win at Crasters. HODOR!!! That was a great scene with him killing Locke. I get so tired of evil winning over good in this series. I really liked this episode. HODOR!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksellsword Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I gave it an 8 could of done without the cersei Margaery scene , found it a bit hard to believe locke could sneak in take a look around and report back and then that Bran and the scooby gang could escape it all without any of the nightswatch seeing them. What was the point in that change anyone have a clue?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YourMomsBox Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 It was a 6 or 7. An average episode and I kind of expected it after watching the preview. The scenes at the Vale were some of the best parts and contrary to what some are thinking, I feel that the Jon Arryn reveal was timed fine. Most scenes were solid but uneventful and that while Craster's Keep was good it was also pretty predictable that there would be no reuniting, that the bad guys get wiped out, Jon kills Carl, Ghost kills Rast. Easy to see coming.Don't have a issue with some slower episodes amidst the chaos. Next week should be excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
