Nice to see the good guys get some victories after Mountain crushed Oberyn's face in, Cersei being smug about it and the Kings winning the Stanley Cup. Talk about some dark stuff.
got chills when the vocal part kicked in during the show.

No. As Little Finger has already stated in so many words: You're just about fucked anywhere.
No place is safe from death, the one true god. Fuck the lord of light.
what about those who are already dead? oooOOOooooOOoooooOOOooo

12 episodes for season 5 and all future seasons please.
The "operation" might turn him into a wuss.I don't get it.
Or
He might turn into something like Hodor.

Great finale. I guess "farewell" was the theme of the episode?
Sad about Dany imprisoning her dragons. Free the humans but imprison, essentially, your children. Drogon needs to keep it together. I hope they dont kill the dragons.
I really am sad about the Hound. Poor guy. I really felt bad for him at the end.
Ugh another excruciating year long wait for season 5. Ughhh.
Fuck the Mountain and his ass surviving. Fucking bullshit.

I guess I got that right. Tyrion got his revenge on his father and doesn't have to hear any of his shit anymore. He could have been that oblivious to what was going on with his eldest children, could he?
No matter how much we want it, there are no heroes on the antagonist side of things. Even Tyrion did a bad thing in killing his "whore" wife via strangulation.
We've still got to place are bets on Dany, Arya, Jon, or Darth Sansa to come out alive.
Btw, I'd let another redhead, this time Melisandre, corrupt me if I was Jon Snow.
The synchronicity of the opening attack was great and so was when Davos and Stannis got of their horses and started walking. So much for people thinking we were done with what was going on with the wall. We started off with that as if it was a sequel.
The attack with skeletons was amazing. How much does this show cost?

How about you bring it down a notch. It's literally a show about moral ambiguity. So some contextless scene with a dead kid might not have had the same emotional impact as the dragon chaining scene that has been built to for 4 seasons. That's pretty understandable.
Lol there is someone out there that feels sympathy for Daenerys...
she did exactly what the hound did to that one villager. All it means is that Arya is going to be a survivor since she is learning what the hound taught her

This shot is sooooo bad
lol yeah
That was the best season finale yet! Just enough closure on the multiple storylines to feel satisfying.
Tywin was my favorite character so I hate to see him go, but watching Tyrion get his revenge made it worthwhile. I wish Cersei would die already. I was actually expecting Tyrion to walk in on Cersei in bed and was extremely disappointed when I realized it was Tywin's quarters. Tyrion killing Cersei would have been way more gratifying.

Pretty great ep. Had some "closure" for everybody. Jon Snow looks to be fucked though, considering he's a bastard and the last one by Stannis was going to bled dry by Melissandre. His mom was a royal one for sure.
I'm pretty excited about Aria going to Bravos though. That shoukd have some awesome stories behind it. This show is so fun because if keeps evolving. No one character arc lasts forever, except for Tyrion. Live!

If Bran and the dragon's story line become intertwined, I will lose it. Seems like all the Stark's are looking up in life too, which is a long time coming

I already wasn't a huge fan of Dany, but seeing how she has little control of her dragons has made her completely uninteresting. She better learn to command them, or die already. And unfortunately, I think she is going to live for a long time. Why hasn't she asked the simple question yet---how the Hell did Aegon the Conqueror tame and control his dragon that was the size of a damn castle? It has to be doable.
If he ends up with King's blood, I bet it is because he has Targaryen blood in him. I still hold the theory his mother is Ned's sister.

I guess this is the first step where Arya turns into a stole cold heartless monster?
No I mean I felt bad for the Dragons. Punish the black one, the one thats out of control. Not the cute 2 that are always playing with each other.
Dany knows she fucked up with how she handled this city. Im eager to see how, if at all, she can turn it around.

Not really. It's pretty damn illogical. She did what any sensible animal owner would do if they feared their animals would harm people.
Wishing her death because of that is just illogical. Yes, even after 4 seasons of seeing the cool Dragons. It's an illogical way of feeling. Sorry.
He was on her list to die. He was dying and begging to be put out of his misery, so Arya exacted her revenge the only way she could: let him slowly die rather than kill him herself.

I think he'll end up brain dead. Like Hodor.

Great finale, shame some dick spoiled me Tywin's fate yesterday. When Tyrion goes the other way instead of the stairs Jaime told him to go I already knew where the scene was going.

The Hound talking about killing her friend and wanting to rape her sister thinking it would make her want to kill him, when in reality it reminded her what a miserable, terrible person he was and he did my deserve the favor of dying a quick death.

Now I'd say Jon and Bran's storylines are the most interesting. I'm eager to see what happens with Jon and the rest of the free folk.
Would be wise if Stannis could bring them into his fold and march towards Kings Landing with fucking Giants and Mammoths.
And man I really wanna see how Bran will "fly".
Speculation for next season:
Next book is called "A Feast for Crows". I'm speculating that either the Nights Watch become extremely powerful or an incredible amount of people will die from war, more than they already have been.

This doesn't really answer your question, but I think I read the other day that the next season or two should pass the books. I may have made this up though.
Is Hodor braindead or slow? I don't think so.
He seems have arrested development (mentally). He's like a child.

This season pretty much covered book 3... some little things of book 3 are going to season 5, but at the same time they went in this season pretty far into some storylines from book 4 and 5 and some speculations (I assume) into book 6.

The Hound and Ayra were the most disappointing part of this finale for me---mostly how those two ended. Her being dead quiet and saying just about nothing, while staring past the camera at him was...I dunno. I didn't like it. It dragged on waaaay too long. And they seemed to be trying far too hard to make that moment very, very vague. I don't think she was leaving him there to exact any sort of revenge. I think it was very telling that he was the first one on her list she didn't kill. It wasn't about merciful death to me, but simply she grew to like him too much to kill him. So she left him there. And I'm confident he isn't dead. He is too close to the Vale. Or Brienne stumbles on him and patches him up.
The problem now is....there are far less people in King's Landing for me to hate. Therefore, I really don't want to see the place get attacked. The "Game of Thrones" has officially become the least interesting part of the show now.

Honestly, the only bit of clarification that they skipped over (and which would have explained Jaime's sudden turnabout regarding freeing Tyrion) is precisely why, in the books, he said he freed Tyrion.
Just so people won't have to google it...
(Mods, please don't kill me. This part was tied in with the scene that had already played out in the TV show, so I figured it was ok. Will remove if it's not).
Just so people won't have to google it...
Jaime felt bad about lying to Tyrion about the peasant girl who had loved Tyrion so long ago. Also helps explain the rage that drove him to do something he probably shouldn't have (killing Tywin/Shae) instead of straight up escaping

1. The Hound =( Sad to see him go in such a state. Arya was cold, but I get it. I'm still on her side, so proud of her.
2. And motherfucking bravo to tyrion. Goddamn. I honestly thought Shay was threatened to say those things about Tyrion, or I thought maybe they told her they would save his life if she complied. But turns out she actually is a traitor, how tragic.
3. Hopefully the dragons kill Danaerys ASAP next season. So fucking tired of this annoying moron.
4. I thought the skeleton fight was really dumb and random, along with the hadouken bombs the lord of the flies girl was throwing. But if it means more of the harry potter kids get to die then I'm all for it. I really don't care about Bran and his clan at all.
5. I'm pretty surprised to find that Varys was loyal to Tyrion. I hope his motivations are more fleshed out/revealed next season, because it's hard to know where he's coming from. I've always thought he and little finger were 2 sides of the same coin but I get the impression he's more on the 'good' side now, whatever that means in this story's context.
Really really hope he shape shifts back into this guy. This actor just fucking nailed it and I want him back so bad.
I wish this was included in the show, without it Jaime and Tyrion's motivations for what they did aren't as interesting. It all comes back to what you spoiler tagged, which has haunted Tyrion all his life.

Started reading that spoiler for 3 words and looked away. GTFO with spoilers, we can wait a season to find out what he's thinking.
