I expected her to be: No, thanks, raped there a bunch - never want to see that room again. Apparently that's forgotten now, too. Ditto. They really are phoning this in.

A_Cornered_Wolf Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 What the fuck did I just watch... er skim through. This isn't the place for it, but I have to say it. Lyanna Mormont's actress kicks ass in that role. Emotionally I loved the KitN scene, but my brain keeps trying to parse it. And failing. So the Knights of the Vale just are all in cause Jon says bad things are coming? And Jon could've said anything but forgive Glover the way he did and I'd be fine. At least the Mel/Davos/Jon scene was good, again in a vacumm and if you don't think about it too hard. I'm so glad we get to suffer through another season of LF and will Sandra betray her Half-brother in the North. Also, did I miss it cause I skimmed or was there no explicit R+L=J? KL was wretched, the opening scene and music is a prime example of taking yourself too seriously and thinking you are the Wire or the Sopranos when you aren't.

Le Cygne Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Why is LF even walking around free. The King in the North knows he sold his sister to the Boltons. Head chopping time. (The "LF killed Ned" shoe has got to drop at some point, and Sandor is headed that way. Maybe this is how they build to that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually showed Lyanna whispering something to Ned but cut the audio, totally shitting all over the entire point of Brans flashbacks. All we heard was "promise me Ned" which we already knew, then the camera cut to Jon Snow present time. That was the big R+L=J reveal everyone has been waiting x amount of years for.

He sails to Dorne and back again before Dany sets sail. Even Batfinger would be jealous of that teleporting. No shit! Surely he had time to run up to the Red Keep and give his 'killing Kevan' speech to the wrong man, as it was ugly coming from Qyburn's mouth.

Le Cygne Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 LF declared for the Starks. So did Bronze Yohn. The army belongs to Sweetrobin, Sansa's cousin. (It was his call to send the troops on the show.) Sansa can just say, he pimped me out to the Boltons. He framed me for regicide. He killed Lysa. And then he's toast. Instead of this melodrama.

Dolorous Gabe Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 The KL piano score was beautiful but it seemed entirely out of place. As others sometimes suggest, many scenes can be seen as decent if you ignore exterior factors and take it as if in a vacuum. Like, who wouldn't enjoy Arya killing The Late Lord Frey? But how did she travel there so easily and how did she create the pie? Also does she somehow have access to many faces from the HoBaW? Finally the Northern Lords remember. Yay! Shame it's so late that their newfound Stark allegiance seems highly unconvincing. Doubt-filled and emotional Melisandre is utterly tedious. I am pleased they're finally ditching the pretence that Cersei cares about anyone other than herself, but again it seems late in the game to suggest that, like another character 180degree switch similar to that of Shae in the show. So for me, I enjoyed elements of this episode possibly more than any other episode this season. But as soon as you take into account the stuff that looms like a dark cloud over these elements, it kind of puts a dampener on any enjoyment there was.

Dany now has the Tyrells and the Martells on top of the hundred thousand warriors she already has. The north has about 20 soldiers left and the Lannisters and Freys would be the only opposition. (Unless you count Chubby and his fleet of double wide trailers). Yeah, she’ll probably pick up the 4th Soviet Airborne Corps, the Afrika Corps, I MEF, and the Grand Armee of 1805 along the way, with everything else, but D & D will probably try to convince us that Dany is going to have a really hard time taking Westeros.

Mister Stoneheart Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Am I the only one annoyed by the Lyanna Mormont character. Yes, yes, she's interesting enough, and the child actress is above and beyond her years, but for god's sake she's the anti-Ollie...she's such a flaming Mary Sue.

I think they are setting up a Sansa as Catelyn thing when Bran shows up. She will back Bran over Jon. They can't even let the Starks get along. Or savor any sort of victory. And I bet LF aligns himself with Cersei. He will just lie to her once again. And there will be a showdown, where he tries to take Winterhell and put Sansa's head on a spike. And his head will end up on a spike instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, why did Arya even bothered with the fake face? Who was supposed to recognize her in Riverrun? Jaime? He hasn't seen her in 5 years when she was still a kid. And where did she find that supermodel face anyway? she might have murdered some poor girl on the way to the twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
