And someone just explain why JON had to distract the dragon. Had to rewatch that particular scene
Wow, just rewatched the scene now too. I wondered why John decided to sacrifice himself before the ice dragon when I first watched the episode, I know why now.

Isomerizm:
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?
we are not privy to GRR Martin's mind or that of the directors, so it is not for us to ascribe what is or isn't in the realm of possibilities or impossibilities concerning this show, for example, I believed the crypts of winterfell were warded and their dead vengeful spirits could never rise but the directors have turned that belief of mine to crap and I realized my belief was shaped exclusively by too many fan theories, my guess is that your expectations were similarly influenced, the directors see this theories too and always go out of their way to disprove those theories and they should be congratulated because one of the major attractions of epic shows like this is unpredictability even though a rough template for the story is largely available

Arya didn't wear any stupid face or hide on the tree. She was purely running at the NK. The wights there didn't do anything just as when theon was running at the NK too.

Example of pussïes pissed off that none of their theories/predictions came to pass!

Game of Thrones has always fücked predictions and theories... It's what the series does best! No-one actually thought Arya was going to deal the final blow, and then it happened... Unexpected, GOT way!

Nigga brought the red woman to light the trenches. He didn't in anyway abandon his troops. He was behind.

Bro please just rewatch it and come back.
He was behind his men.
When he pulled the rope for that trench gate/trap, his men were still outside. That's why he came in distraught, removed his helmet and sighted Melisandre. And yes some of his men were already in so a few escorted Melisandre.
Anyways I'll go see it again just to confirm I'm not spreading virus.

Wait bro, I hope you are not confusing the Night King with Thanos? Because nothing we have seen so before the last episode suggest that the Night King is super strong. In fact, The show never show us whether the Night King can fight or not.

So where do you get your own fact that the Night King is super strong from?

Are we watching the same series?

..... Common now bro, how many people are strong enough to throw a spear that will Pierce and kill a dragon in flight. Why do you think they use those cross bows to do the same thing because no normal human has the strength to do that. Am I the only one seeing this seeing how many people have now asked how I know the night king is that strong? This is serious.

....Best series to you perhaps and not me. Did you read my post or you just wanted to jump at me for criticizing your precious show. I posted something about a particular scene in the episode in which you failed to explain but instead you are discussing about the length of the episode and praising the producers for interpreting a book well. Jesus! We have weird people here. So a show can't be criticized because it is very good? What sort of thing is that?

.... Oga, read my post well and reply appropriately. This isn't a criticism of the length of the episode or whatever you posted up there but the scene where Arya killed the Night king. If you don't a reply to that, then by means move on. You don't have to reply to every post here.

Like I said earlier I'm not against your critics or theories... That's why we are here, I only replied u because you called it a lazy writing, I for one can't call any work lazy because I don't know how much time and efforts has been put in place but if I don't like a series or show I simply stop watching and move on (I did that to TWD and Orphan black).

I'll like to know what your fav series are without "lazy writing".

The deaths were anticlimactic ...take for example:
Berric Dondarrion:dude has bn brought bak to life like 19 tyms shld av bn givin some kickass line at his death to end it all..

Jorah: scene was emotional as it is..bt had more potential..There shld av bn an exchange btw him n Dany as he lay dying...


Both scenes shld av bn made more memorable ...
too much dramatization of key scenes characterizing them with the prefix "epic" has ruined your ability to appreciate simple artistry in non overdramatization as seen in this last episode

.... Thank God, someone with sense finally replied.

....The NK is strong, for him to have the strength equivalent to those huge cross bows used to pierce dragons shows he is quite strong. No human will throw a spear at a dragon with such velocity and strength to hurt it hence the use of such huge cross bows. So he didn't need to hold her off with two hands, one was enough and with two he should have crushed her windpipe easily and gone back to his business of killing Bran. He had avoided so many distractions to get to Bran including a one on one with Aegon. So quickly getting rid of Arya or tossing her to other walkers to finish her as he had an objective would have been the sensible thing. The NK had no reason to delay the manner he did, holding and staring at Arya doing nothing.

...That screaming was deliberate. Let the night king notice you, he holds your neck then do that trick of yours again. It's simple and effective, at least that's what the writers thought. But this isn't Brienne who God knows how she manage to survive, another discussion for another day but the Night king who is hundreds of years old. Surely, he could have gone out with something better than that after the hype, nothing extravagant perhaps but at least not that simple. Bro, from how she got into their midst without the walkers and his generals knowing of her to the scene she killed the NK has no rational explaination. So, the natural thing to say is enjoy the movie.

....But some of us can't just do that, sorry.

NK definitely is not super strong ... definitely not in the front of a Valerian steel.....

Watch the fight between Lady Mormont and the Giant ... The Giant first carried her up.... look at her very well.... before killing her.....

NK waited for a long time for Theon to finish all his paparazzi before Theon charged.....

NK killed Theon gently.... even had time to look at him face to face... knelt down before him and slump on the ground....

B/4 he went to Bran.....

Did you see how he waited gently and looked at Bran for a long time......

Same thing goes for Arya case....

This is the way you kill your enemies..... when you know your opponent cant defeat you... U enjoy the moments of killin and let them know there is nothing they can do .....

U dont expect them to show you every scene in a movie .....Haba

Try and Relax and enjoy the show

That's not true. Go and read about dragon dance where dragons were killing eachother in dragonpit.
in the dragonpit they fought against a great mob of men who came to kill them while they were chained not against their selves so which book are you talking about again? undecided Bros go back and read it carefully again, it was explicitly stated in the dance of dragons that when dragons with dragon riders fought against each other they used fire against the opposing dragon riders and claws and fangs against each other

No one here will tell me with a straight face than the writings in the show hasn't gone downhill since season 4. Arya'a scene was just the epitome to me. It's why I am sad.

..... Naturally, everyone has a weakness, it's normal but the NK's strength has nothing to do with that. But in brute strength, you can't tell me he isn't strong enough.

All the same, if something can't be reasonably explained, we just smile and enjoy the movie.

Great observations boss...

Abt d dothraki..my tots exactly..

dis is the army of d dead..u don't jst rush after an enemy uve neva fought like dt..

abt d iron born too..d way dey showed it d wights came into d godswood like a swarm of bees..

So rily hw were dey able to shoot n reload...


For all deir lack of fear..The unsullied were visibly shaking...infact at a point one tucked tail n ran!..
firstly, the dothoraki never fought against the dead, an enemy without fear or care before then, their mistake was in charging against an enemy they couldn't see in the dark, so their being anihilated in that context is understandable, the unsullied proved in that battle to be the best professional army known in the world of G.O.T, they never ran, didn't break ranks, didn't stop fighting even when the drawbridge over the dry moat was raised with them on the other side by greyworm condemning them to death so in an unnaturally cold weather brought on by the night king if they shiver then that only makes them human in lieu of their superhuman fearlessness

RobbStark:
NLanders, una really get time.
See analysis

Abeg, whoever have ish with the way the series is progressing shud do us a favour and give us his own series for our watching pleasure.



Season 7 Ep 2........
Milisandre: The Prince that was promised will bring the dawn
Prince in the above have no gender according to Missandei of Narth.

Milisandre to Dany: You have a role to play so does another, the king in the North, Jon Snow.

It is simple, neither was Dany nor Jon were the Prince.
They both have roles to play in bringing the dawn.

Arya, killing the NK was expected. she was there in the war chamber planning when Bran said he will be at the Godswood waiting for him. don't forget the NK needed to lure to the open. at that meeting non of them talked about who will get close and do us the honours.
Arya left after the Redwoman said asked what do we say to the God of death.......not today. from that time, we didn't see Arya again till she did what she did.......

So I believed like someone said earlier, that she must have hid somewhere near Bran waiting for the moment to attack.

Next stop, Kings landing....
Can't wait for Monday morning to download.......

Good evening people.

I believe the scene between the redwitch and Arya has some prove on how Arya was able to sneak to the garden.

Arya: I know you
Redwitch: and I know you
Arya: you said we will meet again
Redwitch: and here we are at the end of the world
Arya: you said I will chop many eyes forever, you are right about that too
Redwitch: brown eyes, green eyes or blue eyes


Arya look back at the door with Wights screaming,

I think with the blue eyes the redwitch was referring to the wights.

I guess She transform to a Wight which grant her the access to the garden and take out the nk, when other are busy fighting for their life.

One thing I can't get off my head:
But if truly she transform into a Wight, the best scene would've been her using the Wight face to carry out the killing before taking off the mask (wight face.) I guess episode 4 or 5 will share more light on that or before the end of this season.

I believe the writers want us the viewers to contemplate on how it all went down before giving us the answer.

Ok the NK want an endless night but what the f*ck does he want with Bran? Because i didn't see anything useful in this Bran of a cripple.

an endless man in which man(living men anyways) never existed i.e the death of man's history so every greenseer was to die! That way his origins and weaknesses would never be known

..... People saying that Arya is an assassin blah blah blah....a sneaky assassin that wanted to be quiet until she got to her target and screamed? Like seriously WTF? Why on earth would you do that when you actually wanted to kill the person quietly. What was she hoping to achieve there? Could she have known how he would have reacted?

Besides we know the night king is super strong, why did he have to hold a girl who weighs nothing in comparison to his strength with both hands instead of one and somehow he still was unable to crush her windpipe. Another WTF moment.

How did Arya know that the Night king would die from being stabbed right there? If she had stabbed him from the back, it would have at least be believable but honestly, that scene showed nothing but lazy writing that people have already posted on here. Just shows what some of us have known for a while that the standard of the show has fallen since season 4, season 7 being the worst of the lot and this season is closely following.

.... I don't blame the writers though, they can't tie the laces of GRRM, who has been unable to finish the book. Since it became those two, the writings has been sub standard but that's not what makes me mad, it's rather the people who defend such terrible writing even with insults. Completely ridiculous.

Solo, it's a movie o so nothing ridiculous about NK holding Arya with both hands. He caught her neck and the weapon-wielding hand(which is the natural thing to do). As he was still wondering,'Nne who you be na'?....assasin Arya pulled her trademark move..the switch and engage.

NOTE: Game of thrones has been one of the few series to be near perfection even for this long and that has spoilt us..so any little thing we find faults.

Arya moved swiftly like a thief in the night and Fiaamm!..everything happened. Finito.

When I saw a dazzled Johnny boy walking towards the Night King in rage & fury I said to myself, this is it!!! The moment humanity has been waiting for! The moment humanity was created for! Only for the nigga to wangardium leviosa some corpses back to life as a shield!! Goddamnnn you NK!! You can never be half the man Thanos is. Or my great-grandfather who legend has it defeated five wild bush pigs with nothing but a dry, withering stick of sugarcane.

Strategy we might say: filter out distractions (Jon) & focus on what's important (Bran)....... but Night King wey no like fight sef..... is that one a Night King? So you just wear custom-made Louis vuitton jacket, yeezy pants, Zara boots then rub dustin powder for face all for nothing? Tueh!!

Something tells me though, that this NK story is not FULLY over. There's still one more brief but big reveal coming. A shocking-interesting one, hopefully. Except I'm just being mad!!

Also, I think the NK is of Targaryen descent.

I also found it interesting that the blue-flame spitting viseron looked mellow all of a sudden & delayed his wrath when Johnny boy squared up to him face-face. Hmmn!!

Best scenes:

How Mellisandre illuminated the Dothraki's confidence with fire and they charged towards the NK, but his wights quenched both the dothrakis & Lord of light in an instant like " <<pufff... pufff... abeg our oga no dey like smoke".

Ser Jorah defending his Khalessi to the very last. Maybe Love is all about what you can give, not what you can receive. I was expecting a touching dialogue here or something. Even in his death, Khalessi couldn't give that man even if na small kiss or peck, haba!!! For this, you'll never sit on that Iron throne!!

Lady Mormont levelling that giant to the ground. My second best scene hands down. Brave little thing.

Theon!! Theon!! Theon!! My best scene hands down. The moddafuckin bravest. In an episode where even men who had balls shrunk, a man with no balls had the balls. *Continues clapping*

Worst scenes:
The uselessness of Tyrion throughout. Not even one single contribution. So the discussion he had with Bran was entirely useless? Kept saying maybe if he goes out he'll see what everyone is missing but never did. For a short man, Tyrion is beginning to look like the height of deceit. Thank you producers & writers.

The uselessness of Bran. He contributed nothing for someone we all thought had a big role to play. He warged into those birds to do what exactly? In search of food? He warged into three black Ravens -- confirming he's the three eyed raven.... Ok... Ehen.. ehen?

The uselessness of Jon. It's shocking that Jon, who at a time was the pivotal aspect of this show, has become this.. thissssssss *spits** . This was the greatest Battle of humanity, bigger than whatever foolish battle they have with Cersei, yet Jon had no part to play in it. He was just all over the place. When he quipped during the season premiere that riding a dragon has spoilt horses for him, I didn't know he was referring part of his sense that will spoil eventually. Thank you producers & writers.

The uselessness of the Night King. This one is the most useless of them all. This horn-headed, blue-eyed, dustin- powder rubbing ojuju calaba ended up so useless that his uselessness fried something in my brain, because for the first time in my life, I wished for the ressurection of an evil villian just so he could wake up and die again BUT with sense.

For seven seasons, 7 freaking seasons, this ojuju calaba made me believe he was the ish!! So much so that Johnny Walker had to create a special brand of alcohol called "Johnny Walker the white Walker" only for him to die like a native fowl...

I might be prosecuted for this.... BUT the Night King should have killed Arya in the process too. It would have reduced this anti-climax feel & given his useless war a meaning.

Except of course, like the little suspicion I habor, this Night king story isn't over yet.

vetrovialMan:


I think you may be right, Jon wouldn't have been able to take out NK in a one on one combat. Did u see the move he used to kill theon?
of course !
I think the producers refusing to savour us with the scenes of the Nk in one-on-one combat might have been deliberate. Just think of it after all the hyping of the Nk about his powers and ruthlessness then suddenly he gets killed easily by a mere mortal in a combact, that could have be an insult to his character. they wouldn't want him to stoop so low and that's why they had to make him die unexpectedly as if he was not prepared for it and skip the one-on-one combact thing.

I actually saw it !
The move was classic like he was lecturing his commanders on how to Dodge a spear but again Theons death was very predictable, the Nk already knew and saw he was running towards him with a spear so he had enough time to prepare for the move.


but I am just thinking again..the Nk moves and his accurate spear throws couple with his 3D sensors (ability to sense a threat or attack) could be an inkling that he could be very experienced in combact. who knows? whatever! lemme just stop here jare those producers want to just scatter somebody's head

invigilator:
Is it just me or there's someone else here that thinks the Night King was killed by Arya alone, I mean the Arya we know... Not as a many faced god but just Arya Stark killing the Night King. Is it much more impossible of a task? Considering what she has been through ever since watching her father beheaded.. If truly she had switched face, someone here mentioned that the WW that turned after Therion was killed is Arya, but in the follow up scenes where the night king was killed, the same WW that turned was showned to have exploded along with others.

Lets say that was a hint for us to know something is coming, the same way the NK turned when Jon was trailing him, that's exactly the same way the WW turned, only for us to see Arya mid air towards the NK.

It's also worthy to note that there's no tree or other elevated height close to where Bran sat except the tree, and from camera view. It's very obvious that Arya didn't jump down from d tree(so that's a twist we have got to battle on)

If truly Arya "turned" to be able to kill the Night King, then the producers would have at least pictured her having a blue eyes before driving the dagger thro' NK..

If you're a lover of good TVseries, you would understand how the suspense works, funny enough GOT won't do a back scene for us to know how it really happened(unlike other series). But with all these prophecies gradually comin' to past, One can only imagine how the end of this series will be.
since you like dissecting theories, here's mine, she was buried in snow close to bran

Wow, just rewatched the scene now too. I wondered why John decided to sacrifice himself before the ice dragon when I first watched the episode, I know why now.

He almost sacrificed his life to make way for Arya to get to the NK by distracting the dragon that was blocking the entrance to the garden... Watch again, you will hear him screaming "" Go go go"".. And that was how Arya sneaked through to approach the NK

Love the show. Big respect to the directors and everybody.

But make i find trouble small...i love Arya o right from time and forever...happy she killed the NK. My issue is, so the NK can just die like that via Valyrian steel only no alloys (mixture) of Valyrian steel, Dragonglass and other charms. Afterall the Children of the Forest made him with Dragon glass not Valyrian steel.

So Jon could of killed him that time he was chasing him by throwing/aiming his Long Claw at him and he would have died juslaidat?

Moving forward, i swear i thought i'll trumpet of Cersei's army attacking Winterfell immediately the NK died.
valyrian steel is rumored to be an alloy of steel and dragonglass spellforged in dragon fire
Also if Jon threw long claw at the night king and missed or if it didn't miss and we found out the night king was unhurt by it you would have been the first to criticize his supposed foolishness for trying to kill a being whom dragon fire didn't hurt from that distance and leaving himself unarmed and vulnerable! With all the newly dead littering everywhere, common sense should have told us all that at some point the night king was going to tap into that resource, that he did it while Jon was charging at him just goes to show he was an astute general

She didn't have to transform into any Wight.. The NK isn't that strong on one on one battle.. She got thru with the help of Jon Snow.. Someone mentioned it on Twitter and it's beginning to make sense.. The NK positioned the dead dragon at the entrance of the garden where Theon was keep Bram to stop any human from coming close.. That was why the dragon kept spitting fire uncontrollably to stop anyone from coming close to the entrance.. JON Snow had to sacrifice himself to distract the dragon.. The moment he did that Arya ran passed and as soon as she passed the general swiftly like the assassin she was, the sense a wind blew pass but none of them spotted her until she made a move for the NK

I mean why didn't any character say anything about the dead resurrecting in the crypt during their planning? OR was that scene done to surprise viewers?
None of them thought about that. If you noticed, they told everyone to hide there as that is the best and safest place to be. Furthermore there is this belief that the crypt has some magic and maybe the dead may not be able to enter.
Most of the viewers expected the dead to rise up in the crypt.
maybe they didn't expect the night king to get a chance to raise the dead

My faves will survive the Night King only to die fighting Cersei. That bitch!!!

If anybody deserves to take them away from me, then it should be the Night King, not that mortal bitch!! Even in her death.

Sigh.....

High in the halls
Of his faves who are gone
Ksslib will dance with his ghosts
the ones he had lost
the ones he had loved the most


lol cheesy Clegane bowl and cersei's valonquar death are still theoretically possible

.... Thank God, someone with sense finally replied.

....The NK is strong, for him to have the strength equivalent to those huge cross bows used to pierce dragons shows he is quite strong. No human will throw a spear at a dragon with such velocity and strength to hurt it hence the use of such huge cross bows. So he didn't need to hold her off with two hands, one was enough and with two he should have crushed her windpipe easily and gone back to his business of killing Bran. He had avoided so many distractions to get to Bran including a one on one with Aegon. So quickly getting rid of Arya or tossing her to other walkers to finish her as he had an objective would have been the sensible thing. The NK had no reason to delay the manner he did, holding and staring at Arya doing nothing.

...That screaming was deliberate. Let the night king notice you, he holds your neck then do that trick of yours again. It's simple and effective, at least that's what the writers thought. But this isn't Brienne who God knows how she manage to survive, another discussion for another day but the Night king who is hundreds of years old. Surely, he could have gone out with something better than that after the hype, nothing extravagant perhaps but at least not that simple. Bro, from how she got into their midst without the walkers and his generals knowing of her to the scene she killed the NK has no rational explaination. So, the natural thing to say is enjoy the movie.

....But some of us can't just do that, sorry.
U are simply getting yr analysis very wrong. The NK is projected as a very powerful superhuman character. The NK is very confident of his powers and abilities and doesn't need to rush at killing anyone. See the way he stood watch Jon Snow and revived the dead to obstruct him, see how he confidently made his armie to stop fight and waited for Theon to finish fooling himself and then kill him by himself, see how he moves confidently towards bran knowing that there won't be any one strong enough to stop him. Only for him to Notice a little girl flying at him(most people 4get that Arya despite her skills and training is a little girl) the producer made sure she was deflowered in Ep 2 to remind us that she is just a skillful little girl. Looking at all these, NK just caught her by the neck(who is this little rat)NK has no basis to rush at a non threat like Arya(non threat in NK comprehension) remember that even dragon fire couldn't harm him. Well he belittled Arya at his own detriment.

You are very mistaken.

Before Dany was a foreign invader with a bunch of dangerous toys but Dany has the whole North behind her now and that should count for something.
after s08e03 in ser davos's voice, the whole north don't count for sh1t! grin
