If there is a better representation of the word "hipster" than the over-reacting fidget-spinner-spinning girl watching GoT while being filmed watching said TV show at a bar, I haven't seen it.

Maybe magic is what awaken the white walkers?
As long as they do something.... I mean sure they've helped so far, but if they die out without actually doing something major, it would suck.
Like The Force!

There was a pay-off. Arya's line references a scene from the beginning of the series.
Ned saying she'll be a courtly lady and Arya saying "that's not me, that's Sansa".
She'll probably pick up her Cersei hunt.

And yes, the wolves will return no doubt.
Very enjoyable episode. I liked SFX's take on it.

What does any of that have to do with hipsters?

Probably the worst speech in Game of Thrones so far. Excellent episode otherwise, but holy shit, this part had me cringing.
They killed J-Bash! (aka. Julian Bashir)
Seriously though, the sand snakes are just really poorly devleoped characters. It's the same problem with Euron. Nobody cares about him because he's barely been in the show and is basically a cartoon character.
Or Arya can't be domesticated anymore so she can't expect to domesticate Nymeria either.

they also killed their innocent cousin and conspired to kill Myrcella.

so was that the whole iron fleet that got destroyed or just a few ships to escort the sand snakes back?
now that the sand snakes are gone - do they still have the dornish army on their side?
ellaria awaits a gruesome death in kings landing.........

And they were so innocent, they could have starred in their own tween fantasy love film.
You know what, probably better. Rewatched a bit of the first episode with one of those "Bar reaction" videos posted, it's definitely much worse than I originally thought. I would never want to rewatch that whole thing. I think we're in Season 5-tier right now.
S5 was a struggle, but I wouldn't quit unless it becomes unbearably boring.

I had the same thought after Qyburn said he was working on a solution and then they went into the dungeon with the dragon bones. I think we'll still get undead dragons, though. Qyburn will kill one or more of the dragons with the ballista, but it'll be the Night King that brings them back to life.

Good episode but the greyworm scene was overdrawn and comical. Did we really need softcore pornography between two minor characters in this short ass season? I dont care about them, lets not waste time on this shit.
Arya and Nymeria's reunion was bittersweet. I hope Nymeria shows up later in the season and rejoins her siblings along with the Starks. Of course Jon leaves when Arya and Bran are about to reach Winterfell. SMH.
Excited about Jon and Dany's meeting next week. Hyped.

I'm pretty sure it was already invented, this is just the super optimized version that can penetrate a dragons skull if it remains perfectly still 15 feet away.
That was a good episode and im so happy the sand snakes are gone. Euron is gonna be my fave this season i reckon
An i echo the sentiments about that weird ass sex scene with greyworm. So ott and that is a problem game of thrones has had since the start.
If the series was more tactful and subtle it wouldve improved it from a decentshow to a great show.

I assume it's nothing but why was Arya zoned out when she met Hotpie? Especially before Hotpie tells her that Jon Snow is King of the North.
The previous episode she was having a laugh with Ed Sheeran and the band.

She was just a bit pensive I think, being in relatively safe place.

Yeah, glad the Snakes are gone too. Euron is such a goddamn badass I cant help but root for his crazy ass.
Man, when the music started playing as Arya decides to head back to Winterfell...fucking chills you guys. The Stark theme gets me so emotional.

Maybe. Probably won't breath fire anyway. I think last week's episode with the undead giants in the Night King's army is foreshadowing.

I think it's to show in a civilized place she's not fully comfortable or at home anymore. She's wild now, not domesticated to the cultural norms anymore

Arya has seen AND done some shit and is constantly on the road with a very clear objective. She's spent the last two seasons training with emotionless assassins. Likely not used to genuine friendship at this point.
Yeah, I think it's to show us how much she has changed. She is kinda numb to it all now.

Well, except to Hotpie's exceptional food and drink.
Wrong opinion. The most vile, disgusting thing shown on the show so far was Obarra's speech when asked if she would join Ellaria.
"When I was a girl..."
I'm glad she's dead
Speak fo yoself. Long live Nathalie Emmanuel's body double.

When she tells Hotpie to stay live, that felt very genuine to me.
She just got done assassinating one house and was on her way to assassinate another.
What's funny about this is, Arya isn't even a particularly high level assassin and she just leveled the Freys by herself. Supposedly these assassins can be hired but even the Lannisters balked at their rates.
That is some HIGH GRADE job training she got there.

Did you see Battle of the Bastards? Jon is not a good military commander either.

I laughed at the "a foreign invasion is underway" line by Ellaria. Shit was so corny and then Yara's expression afterwards just made it all the funnier.

I think she is still on guard for the faceless assassins coming after her.
Ellaria hating Cersei makes no sense. Ellaria has killed more of her people than any Lannister.
Nah, their leader let her go once their got repaid with a face after Arya didn't give them the one she was supposed to. Her debt is paid with them and she was let go.
