re: GoT S7 E5 "Eastwatch" MAESTERS THREAD

So, back to the current upcoming episode.

I get the feeling we're going to get "blockbuster movie action scene" in each of the final episodes, we got it with Drogon and the Dothraki laying waste to the Lannisters.

What's next up, in terms of huge scale event? Wall coming down, but there are 2 other episodes too. Sack of King's Landing seems like it would be on the list. That leaves us one other huge event.
Any guesses?

Maybe the Stark kids going all "The Shining" on Littlefinger?

Does Beric die for the 7th(?) time?

Agree to disagree, sure, but keep in mind all the main characters basically live in fortresses. I think they'd be able to survive it somewhat, and I don't think the animals rising would be all that vicious save for bears and wolves.

I think that the NK and his wights attacking a castle like they did Hardhome would overrun almost any of the Nrthern Castles (who all seem to be undermanned ATM. The NK could raise the freshly dead defenders if the initial battle didn't go his way and have tehm attack (presumably from within the keeps.......

Having all the dead of Westeros spring to life would result in a very quick demise of all living in Westeros, IMHO. Remember there are relatively few trained knights in terms of the total population. Most people are peasants, surfs or farmers and would run shrieking from an advancing zombie.

I don't think there will be that many dead south of the Wall. Keep in mind Dany did largely took care of the casualties south of the Wall by lighting them on fire. I'm just thinking a few dozen dead people and some animals, with the exception of one place being a notable exception (Casterly Rock would be my guess). It's just clear enough that they're all fricked once the army of the dead shows up. It's not like Zombies if they're bitten that they turn into one. It won't be anywhere near the roster the Night's King currently has at his disposal.

So what else is new?

Yeah the wall has to come down in some form or fashion.

Just sayin'...

Not to sound like a Hodor, but are the Iron Islands not going to be affected by it since they're in the sea? Or will the Night King freeze all bodies of water so that places like Bear Island, the Iron Islands, etc. will be affected too by him?
