Hodor is the funniest character on this show. The well scene with him had me loling.

Sam meets Bran before they introduce Coldhands?
For what has been written up to this point, it would be easy to write out Coldhands entirely. We've made him out to be more important than he has actually been to this point. Now, the question is what part does he play in the last two books. He has the potential to be VERY important, so they may have to add him. Who knows.
As expected, no PW, and I'm happy for it. I really expected them to kill off Balon. They could have kept the same scene with him and Asha and had him leave and get pitched off of the bridge.
So, with all that DIDN'T happen tonight, can we assume that the "the series will be 7 seasons" statement is complete and utter bullshite? Between the purple wedding, Balon, the attack on the wall and Ygritte...all of that alone could take up 2-3 episodes for next season.
They also needed to show Cat being pulled from the river. I still say Stoneheart could wait until the final episode of next season, but they need to set it up. The scene at the Inn with Arya needs to happen, too. There was more to that scene in the book than her simply killing someone.

I think the "we're only doing 7 seasons of GoT" is definitely bullshite.
I think this show needs a good 8-9 seasons IMO. No way everything will be covered in 7 with only 10 episodes/season.
Next season the shite is gonna hit the fan. Hell, the Red Wedding has started the domino effect. Major shite is going to go down in most of the episodes.
As for Dany, this is what I think the show writers should do in order to alleviate the Mereeneese debacle without taking away from everyone else's awesome stories:
Don't show her every damn episode. Diminish her story to like a Theon level. Show her in maybe 5 of the 10 episodes. She doesn't need to be in every one of them. And at this point, everyone else's storylines next season are going to be wayyyyy more significant. I was surprised they introduced the Night's Watch letter with Stannis this early, but yeah, that story should take precedence over Dany fricking Daario and all that.
It seems like a lot of non-readers are starting to think Dany's all talk and no action and are growing tired of her. I think we're all sick of her.

Much like most, I thought it was a good episode outside of the horrible Dany final scene.
Though I was waiting for Theon to scream out his name was Kunta Kinte during his scene (the scene was done well though, loving Iwan as the bastard).
I think they will still have a Tickler style scene between Arya and Polliver next season. The Hound will need to get wounded somehow and Arya will need to get Needle back from Polliver.

With Sam giving Bran and his crew the dragonglass, it's looking more like coldhands will be left out. IF he has some part to play later in the series then I'd imagine they would find a way to introduce him then.

Sam meeting with Bran really suffered from no Coldhands. Bran just came across as wanting to go north for no particular reason. And did I miss it or was there no swearing Sam to silence.
Exactly (from the Hodor viewpoint):
quote:
Bran being so intent on going beyond is just stupid at this point. Sam just flat out told him he saw the whitewalkers. Sam told him Jon is not there. Bran saw Jon for himself and knows Sam isn't lying. It just makes zero sense for these kids to be chasing stupid crows/ravens/whatever.

The show has made it pretty clear that Bran is listening to Jojen about going beyond the wall. He sent Rickon away last week so he wouldn't follow him beyond the wall.
I wanted to see Coldhands and hopes he has a role to play in the future, but he wasn't needed to establish Bran's/Jojen's motive for going beyond the wall.

Someone wrote in the Hodor thread that since Cat is dead, they see no point in showing Brienne anymore since she fulfilled her promise.
Little do they know that Brienne and Jaime's relationship is important...and Cat isn't gone.

They still did a poor job of explaining the motive.

I don't think so. Jojen's been telling him to go beyond the wall every episode, Bran dreams are also leading him beyond the wall, that's the only reason they needed to go beyond the wall.
It's pretty much the same motive as in the book.

This is what pisses me off when they write out people like Coldhands or Patchface. Readers are wondering if those people will have a part to play in the coming books. I guess not though.

Hodors are getting much better at this:

10. I've figured out Dany's end game. Bring as many brown people to Westeros to drive down property values and wreck the economy thus crippling the Lannisters.

good god that ending was terrible.

exactly what I expected with the episode title. I'm shocked you guys are so surprised we have to relive the exact crap that made us all hate dany to begin with.

very true, it was painful to watch it happen though. I still liked her at this point of Storm because i figured she would be bouncing out of there. I mean she has slaves now BUILD SOME frickIN BOATS.

At least they incorporated one of Patchface's songs into the show with Shireen.
Also, is Stannis's main plotline next season going to be going to the Wall/won't reach it till episode 9 or 10? That's a long way from where he is now.

The Hodors are guessing the Arya thing, but some are just dense.
They laid it out for them.
Season 2: Jaqen telling her he was an assassin. She saying she wanted to learn how to change faces. He saying you can only learn that in Braavos. She saying she can't because she wants to find her family. Him giving her the coin.
Season 3: He family is all dead. She kills the Frey guy. Remembers the coin, says the words.
If they can't see that, they are really not paying attention.
