Danny inexplicably jumping off her dragon just to give her friendzone his moment was so lazy and stupid.
Huh? She fell off of him when he was overrun by the dead and went flying dozens and dozens of wights hanging on as they slashed and stabbed him.

Here's the video of the stunt being filmed


That little video literally proves that they gave Arya superhuman Powers. Because that ramp is nowhere near anything else in the shot. So she can run Ultra fast and leap super high in the air. She's a Superhero now. Good luck Cersei

That also proves how either lazy or ignorant the directors are. They could have easily built some continuity into that shot. They could have CGI add something where that ramp was that Arya could have jumped off of. But they did not do that. So, she has superhuman jumping abilities.

Why was he ever overrun? Why was she just sitting there with him on the ground? Why the first time one of the little white stab him in the tail did he not just take off? She just had him sit there being overrun until he was so overrun he couldn't move and then she fell off. The entire scene made no sense. Because it was lazily written and directed with the purpose of giving someone a cool slow-mo moment.

My 12 year old cousin has similar comebacks. Good luck with the whole Arya superhero debate, I'm sure you mythbusters will figure it out just in time to argue over the next episodes physics

I actually think it would’ve worked a lot better without a jump at all. Have more evidence of Arya brushing past the white walkers like a shadow. Then show a bit wider scene from behind of her coming in low and dark from behind the NK. Could still have him turn and grab her showing his power and even have the drop stab.

Feel like that would’ve been more consistent with her identity as a badass stealthy killer than Arya Jordan. Seems like they wanted to go for spectacle.

What was the deal with the white walkers hair blowing? That was Arya running past them? Lol


That wasn’t a WW, it was Littlefinger, who stole a WW face and let Arya pass.

Look we can agree the stab was retarded.

But we know from the library, they use their senses to find prey. The tree thing is she used the weirwood to gain access to the Godswood from the roofs or a window.

The retarded part is she managed to avoid all the wights' eyes as she got down on the ground.

This.
When Bran goes to the spirit world, that's fine because it still plays by the rules. If he would have killed the NK by suddenly shooting lasers out of his eyes, that would be out of bounds.
Do people that can't separate those two things also get mad that nobody talked about waste management and sewerage treatment during the show as well?

I don't know why people really care if she jumped from a tree or not, but why would anyone think this video proves she did not jump from a tree?

Eh not worth arguing about anymore if they think seeing how a stunt was performed proves or disproves the physics of a fantasy world then more power to them. I enjoyed the episode and I still enjoy the show. Do i have a few problems with it? sure but not enough to get angry and venomous to the point of calling people idiots for not sharing my opinion.

Because it shows that she leaped from a pre-fabricated platform while lifted/guided by a series of wires and pulleys.

Now how she got all of that shite into the courtyard without anyone noticing is beyond me.

BUT SHE OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T JUMP OUT OF A frickING TREE.

I think the Night king can see what the walkers and wights see.

If they're all connected to him, why not. It why he caught her, or was able to.

I think people wanted to see him in action, in a fight with someone (1 on 1, or 2 on 1) who has proven battle skills that the audience respects. To see him with his weapon going off on some people, being beaten in battle..not with trickery.

Either way I'm alright, it's what they decided to go with and it's on them to make show decisions. I cant do anything about it except hope the final 3 episodes are great

Pretty obvious she was just running fast and was able to jump high. I mean shite, she can look like Frey, I do not think jumping high and running fast is that big a deal.
