Quoting myself for the new page.
I think that it meant that Bran would need her once he lives the tree house. So essentially from the moment where they get attacked to the moment where she got him to the wall. hence Bran's "I don't need you anymore."

lol I know the insane logic of the show. Even medieval kings bowed to the law of god, which seems to have been thrown out the window in GoT. I'm not really arguing anything, it just feels a lot more contemporary than medieval.
You're absolutely right that the show isn't following logic in places. Like Tarly stating that he came because his queen summoned him. He then goes on to state that he also knows what Cersei does to the people that she hates. Yet had he stayed loyal to the house he swore fealty to, what exactly could Cersei have done to him? Now his army got fucked two ways to sunday by Dany.
A campaign of murder and fear.
"But guys, trust me when I tell you that the foreign Queen will be worse for you than me!"
"Oh this, it was a tragic accident...why am I smiling? Ah...Ser Gregor!"
"Woo, those were some tough questions. Ser Gregor, make sure no one gets the idea to ever ask them again."
Brandon Stark is a wham, bam, thank you ma'am type of guy.

Is Edmure, the new lord of the Twins and Riverrun, still in a dungeon?

Maybe he can rally the Riverlands now that the Frays are dead, and join Jon and Dany, the true rulers of the Seven Kingdoms.
It's a Valyrian steel dagger, it will do more than just kill LF.
My crazy thought is that Jon gets turned into a white walker and Arya stabs him in the heart with that dagger.
I don't even watch GoT but this is hilarious to me knowing what happened last episode

Yeah, and while that's happening Dorne gets off their asses and join the dream team as well lol. I think the Riverlands are out of the picture just as much as the - not touched by war - Dornish realm.
So something I noticed. The only other banners specifically shown during the Lannister march to KL, are the banners of House Tarly. No other Reach banners or forces are seen anywhere. Am I to assume that Randyll Tarly was the only one to turn on Olenna?

So was all the gold destroyed?
None of it was.

No way I guess I missed that part. What happened to it? Was there literally no point to that battle besides Jaimie running to Cersei and telling her how frightening the dragon was?
Randyll tells Jaime that the gold has just crossed into King's Landing.
In the very beginning of the last scene, it was established that the gold was safe in KL. Directly after, the Dothraki and Dany/Drogon attack. The point of the battle was Dany needing to fuck someone up. That said, even though she destroyed her own army's food stores, she also compromised the enemy's.
It was right before Tarly asked for permission to flog the stragglers. He told Jaime that the gold was safely through the capital's walls. No there was a point. A good chunk of the Lannister and Tarly army was curb stomped, she cut off supplies for Cersei's armies (it hurts her as well, but if smashing the Tarlys gives her back the reach, it balances out), she demoralises those who learn of the battle second hand, and she found out about the existence of the scorpion weapons.
While she could not have known this beforehand, this was a relative win for her. The enemy has an anti-dragon weapon, and she knows about it with all dragons (ostensibly) intact.

Yup really good point on the weapon. She definitely needed to get that info for future battles

Yup, I made and posted this on Sunday, but it got buried pretty quickly. That scene with Bran immediately reminded me of Dr. Manhattan speaking about emotions and humanity as if they were concepts he read in a textbook.
Missandei is universally loved? wtf? The actress is ridiculously good looking but the character is totally dull. All her scenes with Grey Worm are the worst. Anybody who likes this character isn't thinking with their brain.

Stannis corrected Davos' grammar way back when. It emphasized Davos' lowborn status, but also the contrast between the types of wisdom each character offered the other.
Characters like Missandei or Pod lean more towards inoffensive rather than being universally loved. And even then Missandei may very well be a stretch since apparently not everyone's into her romance with Grey Worm judging by one of the previous episodes. She's just... there.
You know who better damn well be universally loved? Lyanna Mormont.

That gif of the zombie mountain smashing a dude's brain pan and finally seeing a dragon in a real battle gets me thinking if we'll have him/it in legitimate combat this year. The Hound is still the guy to do it right? Lord of light lending a helping hand and all. But how does he find his way next to Cersei.
This shot was so badass.
Reminded me of Dances with Wolves.
My favorite part is when the dothraki's stood up on their horses and aimed their bows. They looked cool as fuck

Also don't even get me started with Cersei. Its some BS that the people & guards sworn to King Tommen of Kings Landing that followed the high sparrow would witness the horror of the high sept and their king committing suicide ... and no form of rebellion would happen.

Hey you all remember when this happened in a TV show:
We're surely going to see a lot more of the dragons in battle before this is over. I wonder if this is where a lot of the budget is going, because they look completely superb. Probably the best dragons on film ever.
Cersei seems to be running with the excuse that the explosion in the sept was an "accident" (she says so much to Mark Gattiss from the bank). Maybe it's known to have been her, but without any proof that's irrelevant.
It reached King's Landing before Dany's forces attacked.
Dany destroyed the food and resources they had stolen from the Tyrell lands. She destroyed part of Cersei's army (almost killing Cersei's main commander/protector in the process). She let King's Landing know she means business and avenged a series of small defeats. Now she just needs to take those dragons and burn that fucker Euron to ash.
The Hound has to be the one to do it, but I'd really like Brienne give him a hand and for those two to realise they're much better as a team than opponents. Alternatively maybe they're building up Arya to take out The Mountain. She's unarguably one of the best sword fighters in the cast right now.
Probably enough of the forces/lords in Kings Landing were loyal to Cersei that she could take the throne relatively unopposed. I mean, would you argue with a woman who had the Zombie Mountain at her side?!
That's always been a weak point of the show, how common people being ruled over these various houses work. It doesn't stand up to even a cursory thought, like wtf is Dorne about?
Nah, Arya is a sneaky assassin, you need the strength to cleave off appendages and most probably behead him.
I'm more interested to see if there's another scene with Brienne and Jaime than the Hound. But yea, there's a bunching of characters hanging around Winterfell with nothing to do: Brienne, Little Finger, Arya. I don't see Arya sticking around for more than another episode and Brienne's quest is over, it's time for them to move on.

Davos is easily my favourite character now that Olenna is gone.

Olenna Tyrell was amazing. What was it she said when she found out Joffrey had called his sword 'Widow's Wail'; "He was such a cunt" or something like that?

Battle of the Bastards and the Loot Train are the best war scenes so far in entertainment.

Hardhome is still my favourite. I love how frantic and desperate it felt. Especially at the end, after Jon has made his escape and the Night King rubs it in by reviving all of the fallen Night's Watchmen and Wildlings as wights and adding thousands to his own army. There's something brilliant and terrifying about this oncoming army of unstoppable creatures, and for every one of yours they kill they add it to their own forces.
I should watch the Battle of the Bastards again though. Technically and in terms of craftsmanship it's probably the most impressive fight scene ever filmed.

I don't get this point.
It was there to be used. She would have always known about it after the first use of it. However, those ballistas have a much longer range than the dragons. If they mass-manufactured them then they'd be able to keep the dragons at bay (from the castles anyway).

Supposedly there was a ghost scene in episode 2 that got cut. Is it possible we wont see ghost all season? If so that would suck he's been in every season I think. Maybe not 3.

How many White Walkers are there? I feel like they only show up in four, but we already had some of them die.
I think there's the king and three generals and a few here and there in the army.

That's all we've seen. But they've been around for over 10,000 years and we know they make more.
Undead people I can remember are:
The Nightking
His generals, or his best warriors Sam and Jon fought against.
The horde of resurrected zombies, they didn't seem like fighters and lacked the blue eyes if I recall correctly.
The dudes on undead horses leading the march.
The blue eyed white walker children from the Pilot of GoT.
The Dungeons and Dragons looking skeletons.
