I don't get the sudden feminism grief. Half the show from the beginning is about a rightful female heir and women pulling strings behind the scenes.

It's not "feminism grief".

I just noticed it. I saw something, now I'm saying something.

It was spread out over multiple episodes/seasons and written in a more controlled manner before. They just hit us in the face a bit with this one episode. It was noticeable and it wasn't the reason the episode was good or bad, at all. Just an observation, no need to judge what it means because it was just there. It is what it is.

Wish Jamie would have defended himself about why he killed Danny’s dad. Seems like that would matter.

Wish earlier in the episode Jon would have asked Dany if she would give up the throne if she found out there was someone with a stronger claim. Would have been nice to get that in before spilling everything at the end.

I don’t get how Sansa is genuinely more emotional seeing Theon than she ever has been with Jon. Theon took over Winterfell. He basically is the reason her youngest brother is dead.

He watched as Ramsey did horrible things to her, even ratted her out to Ramsey and stopped her from being saved much earlier. The guy fricked over his own sister twice. Yet she is incredibly emotional seeing him, while lying to Jon, plotting against him, and just being a bitch to him for the most part.

I really despise that character.

When did it become not okay to be critical of something? The idea that people are complaining because we aren’t getting battles every episode is bullshite. Also, there have been way more posts complaining about people being critical than there are posts of people being critical.

It's obvious they are setting up a crypt incident. But it makes no sense at all for Jon, Sam, etc (tons more) to be just conveniently forgetting the fact that the WW raise the dead. They even mention it while talking "whosever left better burn the rest of us"

I don't think the crypt dead will raise. Do we know if the WW can just raise any dead or is there a time limit? It seems like everytime we have seen them raised it was soon after death.

There's no way they would just allow a plothole that big to stand. No way they just forgot the army of dead, raises the dead. Hell, even Tyrion jokes about coming back to life to eat Cersis face off. But hey let's send all the people that can't defend themselves right next to a death trap.

It's painly obvious they are setting up a major happening there, I just don't think it's going to be the crypt dead raising in the crypts.

If i recall correctly, Sansa acted very much like Catelyn did toward Jon in the first book when they were all together. I always got the sense he didn’t really care for her nor she for he.

Theon ultimately saved Sansa from Ramsay (the ghost of winterfell) so she has a reason to be grateful but i wouldn’t be running and hugging a guy that betrayed my family and sacked their castle.

Massie is 22 and Arya is 18 in the show

One thing I'll say is the wardrobe design has been ON. frickING. POINT. this season. It's always been good but this season is top notch.

Dany has looked hot as hell in everything. Sansa looked amazing this week. The Golden Company armor is the best looking armor since S1 Kingsguard armor, Lady Mormont's armor was sleek as frick, and even Arya looked boss as hell this week with the wool cloak over one shoulder.

Theon did eventually save her

Jon helped take back their home that Theon took, while also trying to save all of Westeros. She apologized for being horrible to him as kids, yet continues to be a bitch towards him. It just doesn’t make sense why she would trust Theon more than Jon.

Theon took it for like 14 minutes. Jon helped take it back from someone else completely
