Agree

LoL at people dragging this episode.
If you didn't like how it ended, you better turn off your tv .
For some reason this show is based in a story called: A DANCE OF FIRE AND ICE. (Dance=Fight)
And for some reason the show began (01x01) with the White Walker Story. This is all about: the winter. So... what you are expecting for?




WINTER IS HERE

[Madonno]

Anyway, I read G.R.R. will publish "The Winds of Winters" before the 6th season of GoT next year.
That mean the 6th season will be based on the 6th book, because they will start to film that in a couple of months.

Great episode.

The entire fight had me on the edge of my seat. I was scared for Jon and Tormund.

Hope the final 2 episodes are amazing.

I know this is kinda random but they have to bring Kovarro back because he's hot as hell. Besides, he's quite important in the book when especially the good sis disappears on Drogon's back .

The skeleton things that attacked the wilding camp, were they the same that attacked Bran and the gang in the S4 finale? So theres white walkers and skeleton people?

it's not like many characters have Valyrian steel with them. It's only Jon & Brienne.

You forgot Little Finger and King Tommen.

Yes, every single one of them came back.

The only way to truly kill a wight is to burn their bones to black ash.

And the only way to kill a White Walker is with Fire magic.

And the biggest source of fire magic in the land right now comes from the priests of the God of Light, R'hllor (remember Berric Dondarrion's flame sword) or dragon fire, dragons are for all intents and purposes creatures of magic.

My guess is that the fire used to forge Valyrian Steel is Dragon Fire, which is what makes them so resilient and deadly to the White Walkers.

There are a few Valyrian Swords left in the world of Westeros.

Longclaw which belongs to House Mormont, currently being used by Jon.
Ice of House Stark, now reforged into: Widow's Wail of Tommen, and Oathkeeper, of Brienne of Tarth.
Heartsbane of House Tarly, belonging to the Lord of House Tarly, Randyll, Sam's father.
Nightfall, of House Harlaw, one of the vassal houses of House Greyjoy.
Red Rain of House Drumm, one of the vassal houses of House Greyjoy
Arahk, belonging to a Sellsword battling alongside Daenerys named Caggo.

And a few of them have been lost but could reappear at any given time, namely

Blackfyre, the sword of Aegon I Targaryen. Carried by all Targaryen kings until Aegon IV, who gave it to his bastard Daemon, who rose in rebellion against the Targaryens, taking the sword's name for his house. Its whereabouts are currently unknown.
Brightroar, the ancestral sword of House Lannister, lost when King Tommen II Lannister of the Rock sailed to Valyria and never returned.
Dark Sister, the sword wielded by Visenya Targaryen. Its last known owner was Bryden "Bloodraven" Rivers. Could wind up in Bran's hands
Lamentation, the ancestral sword of House Royce, lost in the Storming of the Dragonpit.
Orphan-Maker, the ancestral sword of House Roxton. Its last known owner was Ser Jon Roxton.
Truth, a Valyrian steel sword last carried by Moredo Rogare of Lys.
Vigilance, the ancestral sword of House Hightower (House ruler of Oldtown, where maesters are formed, the house of Margaery's mother, wife or Lord Mace Tyrell, vassall of the Tyrells). Its last known owner was Lord Ormund Hightower.

WOW Thanks Lexiel!

[Ares]

There's also Tyrion's Valyrian Steel dagger that was used in Bran's attempted assassination.

Where it is now, is anyone's guess.

Drag ha.

This show is called Game of Thrones.
It's a political drama. It's all about the games the rulers play to achieve their goals, the powerful and unexpected plot twists, the volatile nature of any and every major character (uncharacteristically so for any other show) and just generally the unpredictable course of the story.

Sorry if I hurt the feelings of hardcore fanboys who think that the show is faultless, but epic battles is not what Game of Thrones is all about. If CGI overloaded face smashing is the reason why you are watching this show, then I feel bad for you.

The season so far pales in comparison to other seasons and the ratings reflect that and the critics also agree. Instead of the usual steady climb in viewership, we are witnessing a tragic collapse. The first 5 episodes were utter boredom. 6 & 7 spiced it up quite a bit, but not nearly enough. 8 was an improvement initially, but then The Wall and the walkers happened

You have a point in the first paragraph of your post.

The second one is completely wrong tho.

This fighting scene was probably one of the most important fighting scenes we've had on GOT. And the first 4 episodes weren't a complete boredom So many things happened, important details etc.

I agree, obviously (before episode 8) season 5 wasn't as strong as season 4, but if the next 2 episodes are like episode 8, it will really, really make up for the slow first few episodes....

But yeah episode 8 started with Khaleesi and Tyrion liking each other - SO important. Then it went to Cersei suffering - like when have we seen her suffer so much and at the same time being powerless ? Never. Then the Sansa and Arya scenes were very nice. Then the last 20 minutes were EVERYTHING. I can't get the complaining......

As someone who loves everything about this show, I don't get any complaints. I love the dialogues, I love the fight scenes, I love the plot twists etc. I love everyhting

Oh sis, why so mad?
Sure, this show is based on a book. And all the Westeros stories was forged from the Battle, the epic stories of dragons, white walkers, huargos, etc. So, if you still want to watch something different, you're in time to put off your tv right now.

And no, this season is the second best of the show, according to the critics, only behind the season 4 and in peer with the season 3

Jee, fanboys are so irritating. Not everyone is the same. It's my favourite TV show right now, but if I complain about some aspects of it I need to "put off my tv" or "this show is not for me". Same defensive attitudes as popgirl stanning. So childish


@Mariano, ye, the first 5 episodes weren't complete boredom, but they were considerably weaker and more of "build up" episodes in comparison to previous seasons where you'd only get 1 or 2 of those in a row, not 5. They were just too linear and lacked any plot twists. That's why after episode 6 aired a lot of critics were saying "Game of Thrones" is back etc etc. And I couldn't help but agree, because I was complaining throughout those 5 episodes. Here's just hoping that the build up for the last 2 episodes was worth it.
