King Onion Knight Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 3/10 - that was pretty piss poor. It gets a 3 because Benjen Stark was cool as hell. That was legit the only good thing this episode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsyao Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 May Gods to be my witness, I am so desperately to give this episode at least a 2, but nooooooooooooooooooooo, I can find no ground to do that, so it is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Señor de la Tormenta Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 a 3... lady plot gift end up giving a -2 to an average episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) Gave it a 7/10. It was well done and all; it just wasn't plots I was interested in, and the Dany scene just seemed like a repeat of the Khal burning scene. The Jaime/Cersei scene was really good though (and I'm super excited to see Jaime in the Riverlands) and it was awesome seeing Benjen again.

Lady Sansa's Direwolf Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 7 out of 10. Parts were confusing, moved too slow or seemed pointless. Hated Daddy Tarly - talk about a bigot. How did Drogon grow so large in only 6 episodes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guapo Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I gave it an 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) I gave it 8/10. For all that there were no shocking moments, nor any great actions scenes, it was a decent episode, apart from the yet again cheese ending with Dany. And though the Benjen rescue was a cool scene, and despite the explanation that followed, it was still a deus ex machina moment. But I liked seeing Walder Frey again, the King's Landing plot actually moved forward (though Cersei has fully regressed to her old self), as did Arya's story, and I liked the part with Sam, especially the sword stealing scene. Edit: And holy shit, no one died this episode! That alone makes it deserving 1 point. Edited May 30, 2016 by Corvinus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanresu Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 8 After last week this was always going to be a take-a-beat, develop-some-plot. Tarly bit felt a tad overlong. Kings Landing stuff was well done. Dany scene was cool. The best stuff was north of the Wall - seems like they've merged Benjen and Coldhands (GRRM has said they Coldhands is not Benjen in the books, and Benjen is apparently not scared of fire on the show). Walder Frey is still Walder Frey and Arya was never going to stay no-one - I just hope once she kills the Waif the FM don't come after her some more, because if they do it's not going to end well for her. Bring on the Gravedigger :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancerman Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 5. It was a set up episode. Expected after how fast paced the last 3 were. Didn't really care for the Dany scene at the end. Didn't have a purpose. Atleast we got set up for the Jamie in the Riverlands plot, Lord Tarly, Sam gets a Valyrian steel sword. Benjen's rescue scene was well shot, as was the vision of Aerys The Frey scene was redundant. Like they wanted to remind everyone of them. Weakest episode this season.

Fredwin Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) Not a flashy episode but you really have to give them credit for managing to cover so much ground in only an hour. They repaired some of their own missteps by moving all the Riverland facets back into play. They filled in Sam's entire back story in 20 minutes and they even mentioned to name drop Bronn and the BWB lest you forget them. Giving it a 7 for the fast forward on the exposition, just on a technical level. They really brought things up to speed in a way I thought wasn't possible.

nogginthenog Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I have mixed feelings. It felt like not much happened, but on the other hand the plot was moved along significantly? I did quite enjoy it. Maybe a 7? 8 if I'm generous? Favourite part was Arya. I'm looking forward to Jaime going to the Riverlands. I quite enjoyed Dany's part. I think Margaery must have something going on.

House Toad Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) Weak pointlessness filler episode, almost every scene was weak, hate to think they are trying to weasel an 8th but it's almost got that feel. Do we get a Stoneheart next? Yawn Edited May 30, 2016 by House Toad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Margaery must have something going on. It was like one step forward for Bran, Tommen, and Arya but 10 steps forward for everyone else. Except for Dany, she pretty much hovered literally and figuratively . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelborn Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 4. Arya was my favorite part, other than that, nothing else was remarkable to me. The preview to the next episode was great though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bb1180 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 7/10. Not bad, not great. I expected this to be a slower episode to set up the rest of the season and that's what it was. I liked the scenes with Bran and Arya quite a bit. The King's Landing scenes were OK, if perhaps a bit rushed. Getting Jaime out of there and into the Riverlands should be a major improvement. The Sam and Gilly scenes felt like mostly filler, but I didn't mind it. And finally, I don't know if its the producers' intent or not and its certainly nothing new, but the over-the-top Dany crap is well beyond being obnoxious at this point.

King Onion Knight Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Its official: this show needs the North in every episode to keep it interesting. The north is by far the most interesting story (with brans too of course, but we needed jon and davos and sansa this week) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
