A bit of a slogger, but I can live with that. We got interesting stuff with Bran, a certain revelation that the bookies have been waiting for, confirmed here. Jaime on his way, blackfish return is inevitable. I have a feeling Lady Stoneheart is going to be somewhere.

I personally didn't want to see bran influencing the past. Though that reveal about hodor was awesomely bittersweet but seeing that bran can actually have an affect on people from the past is kind of a turn off. This means he can place pieces of the past in order to set up the future events. This is a time travel gimmick.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Bran warged into Willis while he was in the past. Right? So technically he can warg into people from the past using a weirwood tree?

I wouldn't really call that "influencing the past". Bran can not change anything. Everything in the past will remain as it was the first time around. Bran can only do what needs to be done to make the past what it is supposed to be. There is only one GoT timeline. Remember what the old-man-in-the-tree said, "The ink is dry".

In this season this is the first time Sam really got the spotlight. They showed him and Gilly in few episodes back but just for couple of minutes. He may not be a big character but he does play a part in the show. (sm1)

well there is a fan theory READ AT YOUR OWN RISK
Spoiler: show
the three eyed raven drew the targeryn kings insane in an attempt to try to beware them of the threats. but failed to do so, which is why he tried to prevent bran from repeating his mistake.

but still. lets see how it unfolds. Brans new visions in this episode were really deep and interesting

Lots of old faces in this episode. Please let Walder Frey die in the most brutal way possible.
i had totally forgot about that guy. would be a battle to watch if the blackfish tries to take over the twins

finally...Benjen Stark!
btw the next three episode names are here

Episode 8 = No-one
Episode 9 = Battle of Bastards
Episode 10 = Winds of Winter (which is also the next book title)


i expect Ep. 9 and 10 to be the best in all 6 seasons. I hope they are too. keeping my fingers crossed

DAMN, DEM names alone are making me hype up. Episode 9 will no doubt be a big battle episode between Jon and Ramsay, following the series trend, which was only not followed in season 5 for some reason. Here's to hoping the starks finally retake winterfell.

And Episode 10 - winds of winter better be white walkers reking some shit, that would be an awesome way to end the season.

Also episode 8 hints at aryas future for the series. What kind of no one is she. Would be very interesting to find out

Yeah. Will probably have some big moment for her storyline.

One scene I really enjoyed in the last episode was Lord Tyrell giving speech. It was just fun seeing that goofy lord rallying his soldiers. XD

And I do agree about Dany's scene. It felt too soon. I mean we just recently got her coming out of the fire scene. This scene should have been in a later episode.

And it was great seeing another Stark again. Uncle Benji's return was a big reveal. I mean there were tons of rumors and whatnot, and now it's confirmed.

Well danys scene can have another significance. That she finally has control of drogon. Look at the confidence with which she rode him this time as compared to when she rode/approached him in the arena. I think the speech was more a hint towards her control over drogon rather than her grandeur or control over people/khalasar

That's the thing, I understand the scene itself. I mean showing the people this certainly firmed her role as their ruler. They have seen her come out of the fire unharmed and now have seen her ride a dragon with confidence. And also probably hinting that she can now somewhat control him.
Plus, she was a lot more fierce in her speech this time, maybe coinciding with the Mad King flashbacks at the start of the episode. This could be the show telling us that she might not be the all good ruler we think she is. Maybe she'll end up ruling westeros and be like her father. Maybe the big twist will be that she ends up being the villain. EHH...Just theories and rumors. :p

BUT the timing of the scene just felt too soon for me. Maybe we should have gotten a more conversation heavy scene in this episode, and the next, and then perhaps get a big scene like this.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
