I wouldn't be surprised that the Night King shows up right when danearys gets there.

Yup, but then her dragons will make mincemeat out of them so it doesn't feel like anything can stop her now.

 

[Curufinwe]

Anyone think the scripting for Olenna torwards the Sand Snakes was an intentional catharsis for the audience. When she put them in their place it almost felt like the writers acknowledged the critiques of season 5.

It was like Nikki and Pablo getting killed on Lost.

 

[broncobuster]

Worst part of the episode is saying goodbye to Benjen again.

 

[Makai]

They didn't have to say it. Use the other information you know about her character. Stuff they've said many times throughout the show. You don't need everything spelled out for you.

Yes I do. If that twist wasn't spoiled for me a hundred times over, I would have still thought Ned was the father.

 

[TheYanger]

Also, Varys in that last shot makes no fucking sense. He crossed the ocean TWICE in what amount of time now? like, does this episode take place over multiple months?

 

[nubbe]

It is a lot harder to do rime progression in a TV show, than let's say in a Book. What would you do? Plaster a date over the screen? Most people don't even know which year it is in the show right now. And if you put the scenes farther apart, then you end up with most of the plots scrammed into differents part of the season.

Never felt that problem in earlier seasons
there were a flow on how things progressed

in this season people are all over the place, hence the teleportation reference
the show is quite lacking in the drama department without GRRM

 

[Audible Phonetics]

hire this director of the last two episodes and put him on a movie asap

 

[marrec]

Best song of the episode/season.

Yep, fantastic song set to a fantastically shot scene

 

[sangreal]

wait so who are Jon's parents?

rhaegar targaryen (dany's brother) and lyanna stark (ned's sister)

 

[XenodudeX]

Danny is his aunt.

Huh?

Fucking lol

 

[TheOctodad]

She left the Dothraki in Essos.

No she didn't. They were clearly on the boat, along with the horses.

 

[Obliterator]

wait so who are Jon's parents?

Ned's Sister and Dany's brother.

He is both Stark and Targaryen

He is both Ice and Fire

 

[byropoint]

This was such a great episode. Holy shit.

 

[Ridli]

So.. there's one important thing from all this drama that bears remembering. Aya has at least an extra face. Did she steal it from Bravos? Or more interestingly, can she make them herself?

 

[MisterGrey3000]

I'm gonna miss Margery

Wow...
Last episode was pretty crazy, but this was INSANE.
I got chills during the "King in The North!" scenes.
Honestly, I'm pretty pumped for season 7; It's looking like it'll basically be the war of the 2 queens while the king in the north prepares for the Night King.

Also, Lady Olenna reading those atrocious Sand Snakes and shutting them down was perfection pure perfection.

Her outfit is dope

The costume designer on this show is amazing, that outfit was spectacular.

 

[victreeb3l]

I like how the directors didnt address that ned stark scene after the credits. Sneaky sneaky

 

[Trakan]

Oh, make no mistake, I'm not bitching about it. I feel the same way. There are so many people and places to cover, you just have to accept there are time skips of an undetermined length.

Not to mention even if they show two scenes back to back, it doesn't mean they're happening at the exact same time.

 

[BFIB]

I'm thinking Jon is

Spoiler

Baratheon

.

 

[RPGCrazied]

That church lady is so going to get it next season.

 

[icespide]

rhaegar targaryen (dany's brother) and lyanna stark (ned's sister)

oh fuck

 

[Einchy]

wait so who are Jon's parents?

Ned's sister and Rhaegar Targaryen who was Dany's older brother, making Jon a Stark/Targaryen and true heir to the Iron Throne.

 

[Curufinwe]

Also, Varys in that last shot makes no fucking sense. He crossed the ocean TWICE in what amount of time now? like, does this episode take place over multiple months?

What makes you think they haven't already got to Dorne?

 

[Hopeford]

I'm sure there's a lot of like important character shit to debate, but I can't even think about that because I'M STILL MARKING OUT ABOUT THE KING IN THE NORTH THE WHITE WOLF AVENGING THE WHITE WEDDING BAH GAWD

I CAN'T NOT IMAGINE THAT SCENE WITHOUT JR NARRATING IT

 

[Venture]

Can we just take a moment to say how Littlefinger fucked up? Looks like they aren't going to have any trouble following a bastard born in the south after all eh?

That look between Sansa and Littlefinger though...

 

[Venom Fox]

Amazing episode and truly great Season! Can't wait to see Dany and her army fuck things up, then meet up with Jon to take on the Whitewalkers.

 

[Valkrai]

wait so who are Jon's parents?

Lyanna Stark and Rheagar Targaryen

 

[Zetta]

Am I the only one hoping that Lady Mormont and Jon get together cause that would be the best lol.

 

[mercenar1e]

how the fuck are people STILL confused on who Jons parents are lol

You shouldn't have published. Imgur will downvote spoilers to oblivion.

No kidding. You need it spelled out? Fine! It's Hot Pie and the waif.

 

[BTM]

Brilliant finale, brilliant season. And now we wait

 

[Magwik]

Lyanna sort of looked like Emilia Clark. Or was that just ms?

 

[osiris3355]

Danny is his aunt.

Same dad. Different mothers. In the US we call that step siblings or step brother and sister. Not sure where you are getting aunt.

 

[Eaten By A Grue]

Best song of the episode/season.

I just bought the album after you posted this, lol.

 

[purg3]

Back to back God tier episodes. This season was on point. The music and cinematography were ridiculous for a TV series.

 

[Wagram]

I'm thinking Jon is

Spoiler

Baratheon

.

Lyanna said to keep him away from Robert because he'll kill him. He's definitely not Baratheon.

Dude, why would you make that public? You are spoiling people on Imgur. Not everyone is your timezone.

 

[Ridli]

Rheagar was Dany's brother. Rehear had Jon with Lyanna.

So much for the complaint that Arya learned nothing over there.

 

[TheOctodad]

It was like Nikki and Pablo getting killed on Lost.

My thoughts exactly.

 

[icespide]

how the fuck are people STILL confused on who Jons parents are lol

I grasped that it was neds sister but honestly forget if we knew who the father was

(I legit thought it was still Ned for a second =x)

 

[MK_768]

Can we just take a moment to say how Littlefinger fucked up? Looks like they aren't going to have any trouble following a bastard born in the south after all eh?

Here's the thing. I think he knows about Jon's real parents. There was subtle hint of that from his talk with Sansa last season. He can still cause a problem.

 

[giga]

wait so who are Jon's parents?

Jaime and Lyanna

 

[Einchy]

Never when people thought season 6 was gonna be shit and it ended up being the best?

 

[Dan]

Pretty great episode. The final players are on the board.

I would've liked to see some emotion from Jamie regarding the realization that Tommen was dead.

It's nice that Arya is back and doing shit, even if it was such a long, dragged out, poorly developed walk to get there. I'm just going to pretend that whole arc was designed differently.

 

[Violence Jack]

Littlefinger and Meli are going to find a way to hurt the Starks.

After sitting through so many lame season finales, it was good to see one finally come through with a perfect ending leading into next season.

 

[GreyWind]

Dany's outfit is looking amazing as well.

 

[Chiggs]

I think Season 6 is my favorite so far.

It's absolutely up there with the best of them.

 

[jet1911]

Oh yeah and Arya killing that fucker felt gooooood.

 

[Akainu]

So jon isn't a bastard or what?
