Game of Thrones Season 7

[NorthCyd]

While I loved the way the demise of Baelish played out, I do call ******** on the way the writers presented that storyline. There are some many things that make absolutely no sense in context with the way things played out in his death scene just to surprise everybody.

I'm pretty sure Dany can have kids but mostly based on the books, plus the fact she keeps saying she can't.

Much of Mirri Maz Duur's prophesy may be interpreted as having already happened in ADWD.

Glad Littlefinger is gone. Only way it would have been better is if they had introduced Lady Stoneheart to do it.

Tyrion was seeming kind of creepy, wanted Dany for himself and his path to the throne maybe?

I actually was disappointed overall for this being a season finale. And how are they going to tie everything up nicely, and believably in six episodes?

Everything was pretty predictable tonight and only one death (Littlefinger) which we knew was gonna happen soon.

I wish they would have ended the season last week with the huge undead war and the dragon opening it's blue eye and have all next season start with tonight's. That's kind of nitpicky but whatevs.

Rumor is episodes next season will be 2 hours long. If that is the case, 6 2-hour episodes would be the equivalent of 12 1-hour episodes, and that would make it the longest season of GoT by hours.

Anyone else see how slow that snow was falling? I'm insulted and disgusted by this lazy writing.

6 long episodes. If theyre all feature-length as reported they may be, we've still got a goood of time to go

Everything was pretty predictable tonight and only one death (Littlefinger) which we knew was gonna happen soon.

The problem is, we're 70 hours into a series. Its hard for a lot not to be predictable, especially without having the opposite problem, where it might seem like twists were included just for the sake of being twists. Overall themes in the show have foreshadowed a lot of what is coming, and people have analyzed and re-analyzed this series enough to have a pretty good handle.

I wish they would have ended the season last week with the huge undead war and the dragon opening it's blue eye and have all next season start with tonight's. That's kind of nitpicky but whatevs.

The seasons have never operated that way though. The penultimate episode is usually the major battle\event (ned execution, battle of blackwater, red wedding, battle of castle black, battle of the bastards) while the final episode has been more story and character driven, moving stories to their next point, setting the stage for the next season, and showing major character developments (particularly for Jon and Dany)

I think the reporting was 'feature length', which could be more like 80-90 minutes.

Which would still give us 8-10 hours.

 

[jdoggivjc]

Only really watching the episode now. That was the first Greyjoy thing Theon has done in a very long time.

 

[jdoggivjc]

And that might be the most boss thing Sansa has ever done.

 

[alarson]

I would also bet Season 8 picks up a lot quicker than season 7 did. Season 7 did check-ins with just about everyone in episode 1, which will probably happen again, but now everyone is more together.

Sunzabeaches...SANSA made me like her.

I may gag.

Care to elaborate what didn't make sense? Not trying to pick a fight, I just would like to know what didn't make sense to you, because I thought it made sense to me.

I'm completely opposite on this. It was the only way that story line could have played out and made any sense.

Both Sansa and Arya, immediately after reunion, expressed to each other how little they trusted Little Finger. They both knew he was an enemy, and unless they were both complete ******* idiots they would be viewing everything related to him with an insane amount of suspicion. Little Finger playing them against each other when they already regarded him a threat and had shared that belief with each other would have just been shoddy writing to create the level of drama that people had craved.

 

[Ty4cy1104]

I enjoyed it. I was worried when Bron took Pod out of there that something bad was about to go down. Happy Sansa and Arya didn't disappoint us.

Really liked the scene with Bran and Sam.

 

[isufbcurt]

I loved the episode. Arya is a badass and I let out a cheer when littlefinger died.

 

[TomTreebow]

Apparently Theon is One-Punch Man. That fight scene was one of the worst things I've seen in a good show in quite a while. Good season all around, just was a little disappointed this episode played out exactly like everyone predicted and just seemed to aim to please all when they could have pulled some actual GoT plot twists with Jaime or Tyrion dying. Just left a little to be desired after a good season.

 

[SpokaneCY]

Good thing she cannot have babies so at least we don't get any incest babies.

Sunzabeaches...SANSA made me like her.

I may gag.

My advice - don't get comfortable with her "new found" strength. Sansa - much like me - WILL disappoint you in the end. I guarantee it.

Yeah, I need to take a 2nd look at this (watching after a beer tasting contest may have dulled my perception) and what happened before... did Arya and Sansa realize Littlefinger was playing them (with the help of Bran) after the events of the last couple episodes where the tension between them was rising? If not, were they supposed to have been acting to trick Littlefinger all along? If so some of their conversations don't make much sense since it was only the two of them in the room.

Really nitpicky, but I think this is what he meant:

The only part of the Sansa/Arya drama that didn't fit the context was their talk in the room where Sansa found the faces and Arya menacingly gave her the dagger. I understood keeping up the charade out in the open in case they were being spied on. However there wasn't a necessary reason to sustain the ruse during a private conversation between the two of them in a closed room.

I assume someone could say that they staged it in case someone was listening at the door, but it seemed like it was mainly done to throw the viewers off, IMO.

 

[ThatllDoCy]

And that might be the most boss thing Sansa has ever done.

I have always been Team Sansa. Her and Jon have been underestimated by the show writing IMO. Sansa was a scared girl, but they had to at some point develop her into a woman. She is part Ned, Caetlyn, Cersei and littlefinger. She may have been a frivolous little girl, but she was never stupid.

Jon's conversation with Theo finally brought through the Jon we know from the books. He is smart, and tough, but not cruel. Jon is a lot like Ned, guided by principle and practicality, not ambition. Ned was the second son, never meant to Lord of Winterfell. They both are reluctant but capable leaders who do their job out of responsibility not avarice.

I think him and Daeny make a nice ruling pair for that reason, they are opposites in temperament.

Agreed. The whole scene, last week, with Arya appearing to threaten to take Sansa's face, doesn't make a lot of sense if they were privy to Littlefinger's game.
