[BOOK SPOILERS] Nitpick Without Repercussion

[teemo]

The usual thread, name your nitpicks :)

[House Martell]

They wasted time with the Ygitte scene saying she'll put an arrow in anyone who goes after Jon but she just stood there while Styr went after him.

[Cas Stark]

Sam and Gilly. Ugh. I hated them in the book, I hate them in the show.

[The Red Melli]

4 guys climbing the wall...

[Aldi_AA]

I don't give a fuck about Sam and Gilly show me stannis!

[Lyanna_Lou]

I don't like that the random Mole's Town kid was the one who killed Ygritte. I figured they would change it, but with all the Sam-centric stuff I figured it would be him to do it.

[Hound's She-wolf]

PYP and Grenn! What the hell?!

[jarl the climber]

I think that its odd that nobody on the Wall has never heard of the fire at will order, I guess nock, draw, loose does sound cool and commanderly but it was a little silly after the first volley.

They wasted time with the Ygitte scene saying she'll put an arrow in anyone who goes after Jon but she just stood there while Styr went after him.

Yeah,,I thought there was lots of time wasted on Ygritte, and I thought her dying scene with Jon was weak. Also, what was the deal with the Thenn warging the owl? I saw no point in that.

Why did they let the Giant and mammoth get close to the gate without raining arrow on them? Fire at will is to modern a command? Why so many people on the Wall if the castle is the most vulnerable side? Grenn & co. are trying to stop someone in a portcullis and they choose axes and swords instead of spears and bows? Why keep Ghost locked up? No Stannis.

[chicagostatecougars]

I thought the battle was not as intense as it should have been. The episode seemed all over the place and not really epic like I was expecting.

[Señor de la Tormenta]

Why the dude who yells "Load, aim and fire! cant fire also his own weapon?

[The Mountain That Posts]

Is it just me, or was EVERY SINGLE LINE of dialogue in this episode absolutely cringeworthy and horrible?

[Cas Stark]

I only noticed that Maester Aemon is usually written better, and too much Sam. But I guess since they killed off almost every named repeating NW character, and soon there will be no one left but Jon and Edd, maybe they were making the most of who is left.

[Twenty of House Goodmen]

No Satin or Donal. I knew they weren't going to be in the show, but they are missed.

[Good Guy Garlan]

Tormund being a damn villain

[roxWolfox]

They wasted time with the Ygitte scene saying she'll put an arrow in anyone who goes after Jon but she just stood there while Styr went after him.

My thought was that she didn't know who she hated more ... and by the time she decided, it was too late.

[Mark Antony]

Tormund being a damn villain

Ygritte cutting off his bear story :P

[King Cheops]

This is probably the first time I feel like the show has really messed up in its adaptation. Did they seriously think that the cliffhanger of Jon going out to meet Mance is more poignant than Stannis riding in and saving the day? Horrible pacing and almost no emotion in the whole thing. There's three main beats from the battle and they pooched all three. I'm not a fan of Jon or Stannis but this was seriously the only time they were cool in the books. Now episode 10 is going to be crowded beyond belief. I'm seriously starting to hear sharks and water skis.

[Good Guy Garlan]

Ygritte cutting off his bear story :P

Damn Ygritte, she deserved that arrow just for that
