That episode ruled, definitely one of the best this season if not in the whole series. When I realized FYAD was telling the truth I couldn't help but laugh. This rules too.

Man, great episode. Did anyone else read the fact that Arya didn't out-right kill the Hound as a, "You're not on my list anymore, bro." mixed with a bit of "gently caress yourself"?

What a great episode. Arya is finally free of Westeros and all its problems. Tyrion is free of Kings Landing and all its problems. Stannis delivers at the end after being much more of a side character this season.

Hound will be eating ALL the chickens wherever he's headed to. Godspeed. drat this show for making me actually like a guy who tossed a kid out of a window and another who murdered some butcher's kid on the orders of a psychopath. loving dead Hound and live Mountain does not sit well with me, but I suppose Tyrion Killing Spree and Arya heading off to Braavos to become a Faceless Man pretty much makes up for everything.

As much as got spoiled for me, I didn't know what was going to happen between Brienne and Sandor. That was a thrilling fight, maybe the best ever because it could've gone in any direction. Also, Arya's stone cold expression as Sandor kept trying to make her angry was incredible.

The happiest we've seen Arya in years was meeting Brienne and going off to Braavos to learn more of the art of badassery. She's so drat cold. Brienne and the Hound fighting was loving great, how they started off with a legit sword fight and just devolved into a disgusting, dirty brawl. I figured Pod may come to help with his axe but I'm glad Brienne got to handle it herself.

Dangersim posted:Yes. He asked Tyrion "What did you do?" and got no answer. When he heard the bells ringing he knows some poo poo went down and its time for him to get the gently caress out. The list of "who killed Tywin" suspects will pretty short when Tyrion is found missing. Varys was never really popular with Cercei who would seem to be the one running the show right now, I'm guessing he knew he would have been fingered as involved "somehow" and then sentenced to his own show trial. Guy knows when to leave.

I doubt he's going to literally fly around throwin' spells and poo poo, but I'd love it. Seems like getting plugged into a weirwood increases your warging powers. Old dude's been watching everything from his little alcove, after all. I assume we're going to get some kind of Franken-Mountain next season, too. Even less speaking, even more head-crushing.

404notfound posted:God dammit FYAD What's funny is that I thought when I read that that it was one of those crazy made-up spoilers that was so over-the-top it was just supposed to be a joke, like "Brienne is actually a transsexual" or "Undead Ned Stark kills Arya." I realized once they showed the shot of the crossbow that it was going to be true, and so it really wasn't a huge spoiler at that point. I wasn't expecting it this entire time because I didn't expect it to be true. So, a valiant troll attempt, FYAD, but it failed.

So earlier in the series, Bravos betting on nothing-Stannis starving on his little island, against political-wizard Tywin all set up in Kings Landing and everywhere else seemed like a really, really dumb move. Now it seems absurdly prescient. Tywin had been convincingly built up as the force keeping together... well, all of Westeros. Fortunately Joffrey's dead, and Tomen wouldn't necessarily be the end of the world to have as king, but I really don't see him lasting against all the various ambitions that are now going to be running amok unchecked.

Wood Guy can probably warg into however many ravens he wants wherever he wants. At least, that's what I took from "watching all of you". Dude knows everything about everyone because he knows every message every raven carries, plus just being able to watch poo poo, and probably even more given the implication of the three-eyed raven. It'd be loving sweet if Drogo flew into their range, though.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:Brienne and the Hound fighting was loving great, how they started off with a legit sword fight and just devolved into a disgusting, dirty brawl. The whole tense lead-in to the fight was loving awesome too, the Hound was just a Bad, Bad Man who seems to always have these suspenseful confrontations with people, whether it was this one, the one with Bronn just before the Blackwater Bay battle, or an earnest discussion of poultry consumption at everyone's favorite inn. This is the episode that finally answered the question "Is Tyrion Lannister going to have to choke a bitch?" Zwabu fucked around with this message at 06:38 on Jun 16, 2014 |

Can we have some brief "things that have already happened" book chat? I talked with my wife about the death of the Hound, and she said it didn't happen that way in the book. Apparently he dies from the infection. I'm wondering why the writers decided to change it. And more importantly, why would they included the infection at all in the series if it was going to have absolutely no impact on his death? It doesn't seem to make sense to write it in a few episodes and then discard it for a totally different ending.

Yeah pretty sure the Brienne/Hound swordfight was easily the best choreography in the show yet. That was fantastic.PhantomZero posted:I've literally been waiting all season for Arya to get a chance to use that coin and get to Braavos, but now she is using it to go north? The whole world awaits and she wants to see Jon? That captain is still heading East, not North, he's just willing to accommodate Arya as a passenger because of the coin.
