Awesome episode but the dragon/Dothraki battle wasn't quite as good as the battle of the bastards.

Bronn and Jaimie are great, but the plot armour is slightly annoying.

Arya/Brienne sparring was a nice idea but poorly done.

Those are all little moans though. Jon and Dany is heating up nicely, Arya is going to stab the gooseberry fool out of Littlefinger when Brann starts revealing his betrayals and Tyrion meeting up with Jaimie will be interesting - I assume Jamie will be captured and Tyrion will have to save him.

Seeing a dragon in battle at the same time as a Dothraki hoard slammed into the Lannister army was strawberry floating fantastic.

I think the dragon will be fine, but I reckon mark 2 of that weapon will include poisoned arrows....

Oh and the best line of the episode wasn't even a line, Bronn laughing at Dickon's name was hilarious. :lol:

Oh so you lot can talk about it :P

Choas is a ladder. Bran is a boring dick, but that scene was great.

Moggy's a dunderhead. Ayra/Brienne was great

I have no idea how they do this on a TV show budget

Yeah I'm sure that thin little sword of Arya's can deflect blows from Brienne's strawberry float off great sword.

According to the rules of parrying in Dark Souls, yes.

strawberry floating wow.

Just... Aces. Also, yay for getting the band back together in Winterfell. Loved Sansa's slow, dawning realisation that Arya was legit serious about killing off her list of people. And seeing a dragon finally flying into battle atop a hoard of screamers... strawberry floating yes.

Best TV since the epic episodes of Battlestar Galactica.
The battle for the wall will have to go some to top that.

It'll be hard not to spill the beans at work with people who also watch the show on monday or tuesday night but I think spoiling this would be almost criminal.

I mean the last twenty minutes were great but that wasn't even the best TV episode I've seen this year.

Ok but I'm a giant D&D fan so Dragons = Win as far as I'm concerned and I even liked the stuff in the cave, just the whole episode was great.

It was a stunning end to an episode, but I thought last years with Jon snow in that battle was more epic overall. That said this episode was still really impressive.

Would have liked to see the Dothraki come over and charging down the hill but they probably didn't have enough for it.
Awesome last battle showing how devastating dragons can be.

Odd question but I wonder how big dragon poops are and if they can poop on the fly and use them as bombs?
Prepare for the poop based bombing campaign.
