So unless it's full of battles giants and undead 'n shit you guys aren't happy?
I think Arya's story is difficult to show on the screen as it is full of internal metamorphosis but she's getting good at disguises most of you probably recognise her wearing a dress and smiling.

all the other stuff that happened in this episode was good as well, not just the battle. tyrion being sidelined to that carriage with varys for a few episodes, the slow moving kings landing/sparrow stuff, the glacial arya plot, the budget dorne plot are a few reasons why people 'aren't happy' with season 5. looks like it should be a rousing finish though

Asterix

is there only one episode left?

Biggus

Two I think Asterix.

Ignore the fanboys. The series has warranted plenty of criticism.

Next week is episode 9, last season that episode was a mini-movie about the battle on the Wall. I hope they do something like that again.

Shady Shakes: Internet reaction is definitely way overblown, someone made the frontpage on reddit saying this was one of the best episodes in television history, which is complete nonsense. I'm not sure it was the best episode of this season.

Biggus

😆 Sounds like something a football fan would post.

EG Sanchez is the best player in history- Discuss!

Qwiss

Ah it really was one of the best things GOT has done. Easily the best episode of this season.

goon

I agree. Depends what you're into I guess.

Biggus

Episode could have done with a bit of t&a.

QuincyAbeyie

😆

Biggus

Well did you see how that barbarian babe was smooching up to Jon?
I thought she was going to replace Ygritte but she got herself killed by a bunch of undead brats, what was the point of that?

Jens

My great sorrow in life is that Robb's wife only did the one nude scene.

Biggus

Never mind Rampage, there might be a little treat coming up for us pervs. ;D

Shady

You want that Arya naked scene don't you Biggus? Maisie's 18 now 😉

Biggus

I think she's porking out a bit, or maybe thats just part of her disguises.

I don't disagree with you. I thought it was a funny comment considering the discussion that's been going on here about HBO being misogynist or something.

Asterix

I thought the battle was a little hard to follow to be honest. it was just hordes of wights pouring through and being hacked. I couldn't tell who was who.

But I am over 40 with fading eyesight and hearing.

Eh?

Klaus

That pretty much summarises large scale action scenes in modern tv and film, to be honest.

... And people over 40. 🙂

I kinda felt that was the point of that scene....that they were reanimated wildlings and therefore difficult to distinguish from living wildlings in the heat of battle.
