Damn. Just watched.

SPOILER: show
I have a feeling that the mythology will get fleshed out more in these final episodes by Bran. Because now it is essentially a world without "Death", which makes me think that Bran is going to have to make a new Night King, because there must always be a Night King to have balance in the world. Which would explain also why the Children of the Forest made the White Walkers in the first place....

They didn't make them for some sort of natural balance. They made them because they were at war with mankind.

SPOILER: show
The battle seemed so fast paced with whizzing camera shots to even know where the frig you were especially at the beginning. Seemed unncessary especially as it was dark too.

So The Night King goes through all these seasons and not once did he utter a word, not even fuckin abrakadabra to raise the dead. After all that rough and tumble, while I did mark out somewhat about it I felt that it just ended up being so fast paced... I would have thought they would have left some of the battle into episode 4.

Shame we didn't get any Ned Stark cameo, or even Lady Stoneheart if only for a fleeting second. Good to see Tyrion and Sansa though, he was always right for her...

So in the end we will have Jon and Dany as Stark/Targaryan, Arya and Gendry as Stark/Baratheon and maybe Sansa/Tyrion as Lannister/Stark? That is their dynasty sorted right there..

Frantic and exciting episode! My only real complaint was a lot of the "dark" scenes at the beginning. I could barely see anything.

I felt bad for all the Unsullied for covering the retreat. Absolutely insurmountable odds, but they stood their ground. The way the dead were charging in waves was like the zombies in World War Z.

You can’t blame people for theorizing stuff in a show full of so many plot twists. And I don’t think the Night King being a Targarean is crazy at all. There’s been tons of Targareans throughout Westeros history and we don’t know everything about them.

It’s a lot less crazy than Tyrion being a time traveling Targarean anyway.

All that foreshadowing for one (albeit sweet af) episode. White Walkers were shown in the first scene of the entire series and now they're done just like that?? Winter was coming....and coming....and coming....aaaand.....it lasted one night. I dunno man....

except we know the night king was a first man, not a valyrian

i mean, yeah, both of those groups have origins in essos, and i guess it is possible that the man who became the night king was the product of interbreeding between them - hence lacking typical valyrian characteristics, like jon - thus making him half-valyrian/half-targaryen-ancestor or whatever, but... come on

i just feel like, with three episodes to go, it is a hella long bow to draw to start introducing information like that now

i'm not blaming anyone for theorising anything. i just think it is a stupid theory

Well, they just spent one episode on the White Walkers after all that leading up to it, so I'm sure they've got plenty of time to get to that. Especially with how they seemingly like to rush through things these last couple of seasons.

Where do we know that? Are you thinking of The Night’s King from the book? Because him and the Night King aren’t the same thing.

but i guess it's looking now like it's one at winterfell, two for cersei, and an epilogue?

if they do an epilogue at all. or maybe the split, really, is three at winterfell, three dealing with cersei

i can't imagine they'll arrive at king's landing within the space of the next episode

as you said though, the pacing is all fucked up and it's all DnD bullshit anyway so who knows

A part of me feels this way, but it’s overshadowed by the fact that this was literally the most epic episode in the series to date.

After all that rough and tumble, while I did mark out somewhat about it I felt that it just ended up being so fast paced... I would have thought they would have left some of the battle into episode 4.

Shame we didn't get any Ned Stark cameo, or even Lady Stoneheart if only for a fleeting second. Good to see Tyrion and Sansa though, he was always right for her...

So in the end we will have Jon and Dany as Stark/Targaryan, Arya and Gendry as Stark/Baratheon and maybe Sansa/Tyrion as Lannister/Stark? That is their dynasty sorted right there..
You don't come back from a beheading.

do we know for a fact the wight giant was wun wun? i don't think that's necessarily been confirmed anywhere. people have speculated, but it could also have been literally any other giant. mag the mighty even?

she was being kept alive by the lord of light's magic. she was actually like 400 years old, and used magic to appear young. we'd previously seen her in her 'actual' form when she didn't have the necklace on a few seasons back; when she took her necklace off after winterfell, the light went out from the stone in the centre, signifying she was no longer under the lord of light's protection. kinda like beric; she was being kept alive to serve a purpose, and when that purpose was served, she was allowed to die

That makes sense save for that she took the necklace off before. Therefore, she should have died then if that was what was keeping her alive, yes?

eh, let's call it the effects of residual magic. she died within like 30-60 seconds of removing the necklace. that's still reasonable

or maybe the necklace was what was keeping her looking young, and it was the lord of light who was actually keeping her alive. either way, you get what i'm saying

i mean, when the night king died, all the wights didn't instantly drop dead. it emanated out like a wave. there were still wights moving after he'd shattered. so magic clearly doesn't fade instantaneously.

I get your point, but I'm of the mindset of better safe than sorry. I've accidentally opened threads I didn't intend to.

On that note, you know how difficult it has been to not see anything spoiler-y in the last 24 hours? At least the thread has a general title and not some BS summarized tangent about a major plot point. Those are the worst.
