Dany needs to learn to ping the minimap more often, like several dothrakis were running around the ballista chasing horses and people

That cinematic is still the most badass depiction of a dragon. Ever.

And still has to string Littlefinger along after what he did. She knows he's plotting something.

"You grace! The armour will slow down your dragons. That's why we can't make the armour. Until we can figure out a lighter armour, and by which time two of your dragons have been killed".

I cannot get over the fact they keep calling these dragons but don't have four legs.

I love Pokken!
Are you a dragon expert?
Really? Perhaps I missed it but I thought she implied all her armies in the exchange with Tyrion.
Thought it went something like Tyrion saying she still has the biggest armies and Dany responding with 'who won't be able to eat because Cersei took all the food from the Reach'.

Jon's speech when Dany asks him what she should do was great.
Yeah, that was cool.
Yeah, that was cool.
Right, but Euron being able to single handily knock off Dorne and Yara's Greyjoys, while helping in destroying the Tyrells, is all well and good. She destroyed a Lannister army. Euron and Cersei took 3 whole families out of the game.

Thank god someone else said it.
Also if they don't sleep on a horde of gold and magic items they ain't shit.

Technically Dany dragons are Wyverns since most dragons have 4 legs.

No. But years of dragons in media and in much older stories have shown what a dragon looks like.
Edit: I did some more research and I was wrong about the Game of Thrones Dragons in the books.
DangerMouse

Yeah.
That was the moment Dany fell in love with him.
At first she was like "fuck this guy" but now she's like "must fuck this guy".
lol, I guess this explains it. Bran's story is him just realizing that none of the shit going on matters to him anymore and he's just trolling everyone for some amusement. How anticlimactic.

He's realising the full weight of his decisions to support a woman who lusts for power and whose first instinct is to burn vast swathes of his homeland and people to ashes.
She needs constant guidance to not follow in her father's footsteps. She is truly her father's daughter.

As much as we joke I prefer this Bran over a mirror of Sansa and Arya. Considering the power he's acquired, how could you end up well adjusted?
The only odd this IS the characteristic jump from where he was last season. This should have been gradual instead of D&D deciding this is how be should have been.

I've watched this battle sequence several times now. I can't stop. Help.

So this was a good W for Daenerys right? She wiped out Cersei and her allies food supply?

I wonder if the reason why all these weeks and months pass in the show and the ww haven't actually marched on the wall is because the NK is actually waiting for something.
Can Bran only see the past or can he see the future as well? What if the Night King has the same ability? And he knows Beric and the Hound and that group are headed up north and maybe maybe the NK was just waiting for Beric to come and get killed and that other guy to try and revive him again, and it causes some magic thing that let's the ww's breach the wall.
Either that, or Dany gets lured over the wall (maybe Melissandre tells her she has to save Beric or something) and the NK either gets one of her dragons, or her and subsequent control of her three dragons, and it's apparent he was just waiting for that future to play out before marching on the wall. Yeah, no chance in hell for that twist. Night King and Queen with their dragons trying to conquer Westeros
I was only half serious earlier in the thread when I said maybe the NK can breach the wall with a dragon, but, if he has the ability to reanimate non-human creates, and with the way Drogon was put on display in this episode, I could maybe start to see Drogon getting killed and the NK resurrecting him. I don't know with what though. I don't think the ww's have ranged weaponry.

But she still needs food for her own armies. She messed up big time here.

Probably couple of those Giants can kill a dragon. Maybe King Kong vs T rex style fight?

And her food supply (which she really needed, probably more than Cersei and the entirety of King's Landing). Also, Cersei's gold, although it can probably still be saved.
A large portion of the Lannister army has been depleted and the Reach is probably lost, so yeah.
They made a point to insert some dialogue about the gold arriving at King's Landing already.

she took out a good portion of lannister man. nit sure about tarly men but she will get the head of the house. food supply is gone which is a shame but she also demonstrated the power of dothraki and the dragons. also she regained power in the reach.
Of course they were down for it. They were down for it when the Mountain was raping and killing the Riverlands for Tywin, when the Lannisters were torturing and killing at Horrenhaal, when Euron on his own took Dorne and the Greyjoys out, when the Lannisters just wiped out the Tyrells and were looting the place of its gold and food, when they decided to beef up their armies with oath breakers and bigots, etc. But Dany shows up to bring decades of furious retribution down upon the Lannister ARMY after exhausting almost all her options, it's suddenly "OMG, LOOK AT HOW EGOMANIACAL AND TYRANNICAL THIS WOMAN IS!"
I bet you they were also frothing at the mouth when Dany told Jon she'd help him if he bent the knee this episode, while doing this,
when Jon gave damn near the exact same speech to Mance Rayder. Things are only ever a problem when Dany is in the picture. Arya bakes human and it's high fives and "fuck yeah Starks!" Dany looks at a slaver aggressively --> "can you believe the nerves she has?"

Why was Dany wearing that same outfit? Does she not have an outfit for battle? It looked so out of place.
The gold made it to KL. So many people missed this
Harrison Bergeron

Good point. I forgot about the giants. Maybe they can throw some tree sized spears at them or something.
Without a zombie dragon his side I don't see how the white walker storyline is just completely anti-climactic. Dany could just fly over their horde with three dragons and burn them to shit in a couple of minutes.

Decades of retribution? Her father was an insane asshole that burnt the heads of great houses alive and broke faith with allies. Among her detractors there isn't love for her because her lust for power is based on nothing but birthright. The fact that she needs constant guidance to not burn masses of people alive should tell you why she isn't so well liked.
Probably because they were so adamantly protecting the caravan.
It's a damn good outfit, that's why

At this point, the first 4 episodes have shown humanity wiping out important food stores and seriously reducing their capability to fight back against the white walkers by murdering each other in droves. Once winter sets in it could be devastating, depending on how the writers decide to portray the reality of it. It's a pyrrhic victory in a sense.
Thanks B'y, I appreciate it.
In that inevitable battle, I guarantee the dragons will be the first to go.
