FUCK YEAH,
ARYA!!
Surprisingly low body count (I mean, among principal characters). I knew
Theon and Jorah would bite it.
But I am kinda wrecked over
Lady Lyanna, wahhhh.
I do have a complaint about whoever the fuck the DP was because I know it's a night battle and all, but fuck it if I could see anything. These eyes aren't getting any younger and I spent a lot of time squinting at things, trying to make out what was going on.
I mean, who could actually see it?
I had all my lights out and I still couldn't make out what was happening half the time.
I hold that the lighting for this show and the sounds at times too has consistently been AWFUL.
Also, despite all the arguments about dragons, they ended up being kinda useless? I mean, I know the Night King threw up some fog or whatever, but couldn't Jon and Dany have had their dragons spit out some fire in the vague vicinity of the undead army BEFORE they breached the defenses?
That was a physically grueling episode of TV. I have a headache from squinting, my shoulders are still up around my ears, and my heart is still pounding.
That was difficult to watch. I mean, actually, literally difficult to watch.
So are we now
just back to normal GoT. Dany heads to try and take the throne and Arya is back n her quest to kill people?
The important things are, Jaime and Brienne are alive, Jon was kinda useless, Arya is FUCKING BADASS OMG, and I now kinda ship Sansa/Tyrion. Seems about the right order of things.
Do we spoiler font here for the current episode? I can't remember. EDIT: right, we don't!
