Dis episode is gud n underwhelming all at d same tym..

Well all gud tins come to an end ...4 GOT dis episode shows clearly d show has bn in decline 4 3 yrs nw..

D way d NO died has to b d most disappointing scene av eva seen ...
D first scene in GOT featured whitwalkers and Brothers of the night's watch..
They built dis whitwalkers story beautifully for abt 7 seasons ...
Nw dey completely ruined everytin...

C'mon hw cld d NK b killed so easily..

I cld prolly write a better end for him dan d drivel D& D gave us ..

This guy is almost invincible ..
he's ova a 1000yrs old n he gets killed by a little gal wit a dagger in d presence of all his generals ...
Damn so gutted!..

Dt scene shld av bn more of a fyt scene...A great battle in d godswood...faeturing guys wit valyrians swords or daggers against d NK n his generals....instead dey a thousand year God was mopped up in a matter of seconds...
How would you have written the NK death scene?
Graphically illustrate it for all to see. You have already stated you can do better!

My question is, how did Arya get to the night king without being noticed? A detail as crucial as this ought to have been revealed.

Why build a villain for seven seasons, only to have him die as easy as that?

It's simply part of those unexpected twist in movies that producers don't want the audience to see coming. If you had known how Arya did everything and got to that point, the thrill and element of surprise would have been lost. It's a dramatic twist.

And please don't say that was an easy death with all the lives that were lost in the process. And for a brief moment i actually thought she had failed in the attempt.

They thought one of their fan theories will come to fruition. I bet some of them dreamt of the speculatar ways the Night King should die. The fight could not have been more than what was given.

Jon was utterly useless as a Leader and a General.
Like is this the Prince that was Promise??

He deserves 5%
He couldn't successfully sneak up on The Night King like Arya did.
Dany took the initiative in roasting wights. He wanted to wait.
He lost his fight with an Ice dragon without a rider.
He couldn't make his way to Bran.

Can't believe he's the prince that was promise. How anticlimactic undecided
he was utterly useless in d episode..remove all his scenes n d episode will still play out d same..

d plan was to hover not too far frm bran n wait 4 d nyt king..
nyt king came n was even doin shakara yet Jon was nowhr to b found...

Bran n d hope of mankind wld av bn killed had Arya not "magically" appeared to snuff him..(which was disappointing by d way)..

Yeah but why show it at that moment and why did Jon stand up to face a dragon defenseless and didn't die. Well, let's wait and see.
No, you are misunderstanding the scene... At that moment Jon was facing Dragon head on and it was brewing fire, the NK was also on the verge of trying to draw his sword to kill Bran... It's the moment in movies that gets your adrenaline pumping as if all hope is lost... And then the sneak attack from Arya happens!

J2381:
I don't quite agree with this notion of yours.

If there's one thing I've observed, is that the night king is a coward. And like all cowards, they usually hide behind others.

Jon wasn't his primary target, yes we know, but this same night king stood his ground facing Dennys dragon until she used fire on him. Why didn't he command his undead to come to his aid. I believe he wanted to prove a point which is he's immune to fire.

If he could defeat Jon Snow. The night king would have stood his ground and face him regardless of whether Bran was his primary target or not. Don't forget, Jon wields a valerian steel sword which proved to be deadly against the night king. I believe that why he raised the dead to battle Jon.

The night king is a first class coward.
The script writers know what and how they want the series to end. Maybe they wanyyou to believe that the night King is a coward or even if they allow night King kill everyone in the north, you would still be the one to complain that the northerners are cowards or something.

Everyone has a way of interpreting a plot or movie. To you the night King was a coward to raise the dead in order to fight jonsnow. While to some people, the Night King already know jonsnow as a warrior who killed a lot of nightwalkers and wights in Hardhome, so he wanted him to die fighting all of the deads.

Jon snow might defeat the nightking on a one on one combat and he might also be defeated too by this night King because he was already exhausted.

Remember everyone has a reason for everything. The Directors probably don't want the nightking to be killed by jonsnow as it might not surprise the audience. Hence, they decided to twist the plot. No one expected Arya to kill the nightking except those guessing or predicting it.

So my fellow nairalander be guided. This is a fiction. So just enjoy it. It can never be perfect.

Pls tell me a perfect(100%) movie and I will go straight away to watch it. Thanks

Considering the deaths and the destruction the Night King caused..Yes!




Yonce:


All I have to say is Bad Writing. grin

I mean they built the Night King story arc for 8 seasons Kept remindinf us that "Winter is Coming"
Made Bran and the Night King have an intense face off and played battle music making us anticipate what the Night King was going to do to Bran, or maybe he'll tell us his motive and bam! They took it away in 5 seconds flat.
Is this is Winter that is supposed to come? grin

First and foremost, in the strategy room they all agreed that Theon would protect Bran. John snow had his own battle besides his own mission was to kill the Night king before he gets to Bran, and you are here saying he did nothing? Night king would have engaged him to one on one before you know he did something

Lol..... I don't know what's with him anymore. He was bold and fearless, looking into Dany"s in season 7 and spitting fire but now, Baba no know wetin im dey do again. Imagine, He held Dany from lighting up those walkers until she pulled away from him for what? Love? Fear? This was your war and yet at that moment he was thinking with his heart. The guy dey disappoint me. He has always been born to be a leader but yet he runs from ruling. I have never seen anything like that before which is why I want to see the end of this show. Will he give away his birthright or not?

I get your point, but at the same time the dragon was targeting Jon and never gave him a chance even for a second. I think at that time when John came out and stood in front, he was like "i no longer give a Bleep, rain fire on me and let us get this done once and for all"

I was very pleased to see that scene because I have been shipping them for a long time. cool

Tyrion is intelligent but he needs a strong lady like Sansa, who is very grounded to keep him from wasting his life on whores and drunkenness.
Lady Sansa is on track to be a very successful queen/lady, but she needs a man who can keep up with her intellectually, and that man is Tyrion.
Tyrion made a statement to Sansa, saying maybe they should have stayed married. I think they would start building their live relationship in the coming episodes but Danerys might make it dificult.

So why didn't we get to see when she killed a White Walker and wear his face? And how did she even kill a White Walker when all of them were close together and walking side by side, making it so that to kill one you have to face all. And let's stop all this bullshit about Arya wearing the face of a White Walker. We know that to get a person's face she needs to tear it off. When wights or White Walkers die, they break into pieces, hence no face to peel off. Also, if Arya killed a WW we would have seen seen a lot of wights who he turned exploding to pieces.

Stop making ill-thought excuses for poor writing and anticlimatic endings.

I salute u crixuss..One great tin abt dis show is pple r often on opposing sides..Same scenes get interpreted differently....But wat u had explained abt hw d WW die has kneecapped any assumption of Arya wearing d face of a WW..these guys r killed by 2 tins only...Valyrian steel and dragon glass ...They explode to ice crystals wen dey die..So hw cld she av gotten a face to wear?...All doz pple defending d ease wit wich d NK was killed by baking some half brained theory like "she wore a WW's face " shld come out n explain..

No, the Dothraki spoiled the battle plan... Didn't you see it from the get go?
The plan was to draw in the NK, in otherwords allow the NK to show up so that they will pinpoint exactly where he is coming from... But the Dothraki mastürbating to the joy the Red Witch gave them charged into the battle(and this was not part of the plan).
Daenyrys couldn't bear to watch the Dothraki slaughtered as they were loyal to her, not John... You could see when Jon tried to tell her to stick to the plan(albeit by holding her), but she didn't back down.
This was the ultimate distraction that resulted in lack of cohesion among them.
When Daenyrys and her dragon left and was breathing fire down on the wights, they got lost in the heavy cloudy weather... Something the Davos and witch realised and made sure to light up the trench as a way to show her the way since they were now being slaughtered..

You listen to the behind the scene interview with DB.weiss and David Benioff. Yes that is exactly what they said. The Dothrakis scattered the plan, but u don't expect your plans to go smoothly like that. There should be plan B, which I think they didn't consider.

Anyways I enjoyed the episode

You do not need any detail. First of all answer these questions: "who was the faceless man? How does his magic work? How was it possible to take a face of a person and then now have all their attribute"? How was it possible to sneak up on the best fighters without being noticed? Remember what Little finger told Sansa about the many faced gods?

You cannot have the details because Arya's powers have never been revealed fully for us to know her weakness. So deal with it.

If the show can keep her powers a secret, why then will they want to give you details as to how she does what she does?
Over the seasons, she has shown a knack for fighting, and an exceptional one at that. This is owing to her aptitude for combat, and the training she has received.

She can transform to whomever, if she can access their dead face. Still owing to the training she received under Jaqen.

Another quality of hers is her sentiency.

The remarkable things she has done have been understandable, so far. Because we know how she did them.

But sneaking up on the night king? Without him or any of his adjutants sensing? That's something else.

Then killing an eight-year old fatal threat took only an episode? They made us wait eight years for this same winter? Voldemort and Sauron posed greater difficulties.

And, how comes, no one foresaw the likelihood of the buried guys in the crypt, been resurrected by the night king?

What about everything he'd been doing so far? Don't forget he rallied all the army to fight the the battle. He's still the hero. Jon practically stood alone fighting the army of the dead in season 7. Cut the dude some slack please. Must he always be in the forefront?

Without him, there won't even be an army to stand against the army of the dead
