I thought Theon had distracted the NK just enough to allow Arya to pull that off.

At any rate, when the show producers burned down the WF set, they really screwed with peoples theory's. I have to give them credit for that.

It seems there must be a fucking Mary Sue in everything these days, and Arya is GoT's...such worn out tired bullshit. Pretty intense episode though, hard to see though due to it being so dark.

What the **** is wrong with this kid?


Any way, if they spent more money on this battle than the battle of the bastards somebody cooked the books. I couldn't tell what was going on half the time, at least in bastards you could see what was happening.

I loved the episode, the action I could see was wonderful, the dragons were great. How much of an army do they have left to deal with Cersei and the GC? No more Dothraki, a couple thousand Unsullied, whatever Jon had left.

I was so shocked to see Jon's Valerian steel blade not shattered by the NK, I thought that was a solid prediction! I really hope this episode puts a dent in the fan fiction BS floating around here recently.

Total props to them. Unpredictable as **** and long worked red herrings to boot.

Honestly, I was thinking the same. Said to have worked long and hard and spent the money to boot for this episode. Could have whipped up about anything and it would have been hidden from view. Only saw the scenes focused on characters at points. Could barely see any of the fighting. Still I loved it cause it was such a surprise.

She killed many

There's a difference between a wight (zombie) and a white walker (one of the NK's generals). She didn't kill any white walkers on screen but she did kill many wights

Well, in all fairness, CGI costs a ton of money. We didn't have zombie wights and dragons in the BotB.

Fanfic isn't a lot different then predicting how many games a sports team will win next year, and why, is it?

No idea how much an army they have left, or what they are going to do in the next two episodes to be honest.

How could you tell? The lighting was not such that you could even see all she killed. Anyway, sure she could have found a dead one laying around somewhere.

Tyrions betrayal and Golden Company give Cersei advantage. They get a Stark prisoner too.
Remember I told you about the actor who played Varys saying the Army of the Dead would not be the biggest threat. That only leaves Cersei and the Golden company. Which side is Bronn on and what role does Euron play?

I'm excited for the remainder of the season for sure. I always felt the NK story would end this episode. Now I figure the Sansa Dany conflict isn't played out. That should be dealt with episode 4.

I'm not sure we'll see a major battle between Cersei's forces and Dany's. Though it seems there has to be one.

I am starting to wonder if Tyrion's betrayal isn't for Cersie, but for Sansa. No idea about Bronn, but I hope he doesn't follow through, or try to. Euron is a big wildcard, no idea there. I just want Nymeria and her wolf pack to play an important role, will be pissed if they don't use them.

i don't think the Sansa/Dany drama is over. Sansa has the smug lil ***** look on her face in the episode 4 preview as she is watching the dragons.

WTF? Is that common knowledge among the purveyors of fan fiction? You do know that in the show that hasn't happened, making it either a spoiler or a troll job, and you have a spoiler tag in the same post. Really what the hell is wrong with you guys.

Thought we'd see Nymeria by Ghost's side against the army of the dead. Don't expect to see now.

IDK, we're not as uptight about tv shows as you are?

GRRM himself had an interesting take on this, said something to the effect of "You don't hang an huge wolf pack on the wall if you don't intend to use them".
