This ep on its own was a more compelling zombie movie than WWZ.

It clearly put her off guard. I mean even I was pretty jarred by that scene. Fucking creepy children.
TRUTH!

I think that's exactly what's going to happen. Episode 10 is going to end with that kid killing Jon Snow.

Because Moomommmommmssss lose all rationality when anything involves Children , haven't you paid attention to this show?
If a lady gets children in the GOT show/world, they have a major rationality relapse & do things such as feeding themselves to the cute child zombies.

Congratulations, you really deserve it!
So that's where this season's money went.

Guess I'm in the minority who thought this episode sucked too. Awful season so far.
Judging by your post history there isn't much you like.
Care to elaborate?
The other implication here is that she realized what became of all of the children given away North of the Wall. It was a common tradition to give up newborns in exchange for being left alone - I imagine as one of the leaders seeing your own demise punctuated by your own tradition and lost young is fairly traumatizing.
It would be tough though. Imagine having to fight a terrifying undead army, and then seeing your best friend, face half-rotted away, running at you with a rusty axe. Then you remember you had to leave him behind after he got lost in the woods, and you could have stopped him turning into the wretched creature he is now.
If you thought this episode "sucked", maybe it's time to give this show a rest. The episode was firing on all cylinders , and I'm not just talking about the action sequence (which was the best in the series)

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
Besides the amazing battle, the other stuff was amazing as well.
They packed a lot into this episode.
Is it me or did Cersei and guy who came to see her imply the Mountain is almost ready to be back in action? That storyline is going to wrap with the zombie Mountain killing all of the Faith.
I would have liked to have seen Tommen. Oh well can't fit it all.

Forget Oberon, forget Jamie... this is the new Swag of the Seven Kingdoms.
i thought this guy was going to freeze the ocean Aokiji style.

Not really a sword or a named weapon but there should be a valyrian dagger floating around in Winterfell. I decided to watch a couple season one episodes today. The dagger they took off the body of the assassin who tried to kill Bran in episode 2 had a valyrian blade. I have to imagine that is still around somewhere (unless Cate took it with her to try to prove that the Lannisters were behind it all, in which case it could be anywhere, I gotta watch more of the season to see if she took it with her). Edit: nvm I guess. The dagger was brought to King's Landing at the beginning of episode three and was shown to Varis and Littlefinger. Guess it's not in Winterfell anymore.
Man, I forgot how unlikable Sansa was in the beginning too. Getting Micah and her wolf Lady killed all because she wanted to marry Joffrey...
i thought he would fuck with the wind and the ocean and have all the ships and boats start drifting toward him and then cut to black as they get close
This is partially based on the preview so it's in spoilers.
In the preview you see Thorne acting like he won't let Jon and the wildlings in, so I think Olly will defy Thorne and open the gate.
Love the "Dah Fuck?" look n the White Walkers face.
inevitability
this would be way better

Just finished watching and WOW, just WOW!!!.
The stuff with Tyrion as per the usual was great, but that ending battle was just incredible, it was so epic and over the top it was easily one of my favourite battle scenes of the show (right up there with the Battle of the Blackwater for me).
The final scene from above with the army on the land with the single boat drifting away in silence was an incredible shot, great GREAT episode.

It was mentioned in the S4 extras in the Valyrian Steel special that while the secrets of forging new Valyrian Steel have been long forgotten, there exist a few people that can reshape a Valyrian sword.

What else is made with valyrian steel?
I remember Stark's giant execution sword was melted for something...

Yea, the two new swords.
One for Jamie, who gave the sword to Brienne. One for Joffery who promptly got offed with the sword going to the grave with him.

Holy shit, what a great episode.
Just everything in the final scene had me squealing like the fanboy I am. The whitewalker at the end starring up Jon being all big dick. The four Whitewalkers on the horses staring down from off the cliff. The giant smashing and throwing around skeleton warriors. Jon fighting the Whitewalker. I didn't realise my dick was out until the credits started rolling.
What a way to remember why I watch this show because the rest of this season has really made me worry. As long as they keep doing the cool shit I will always keep watching.

That episode must of been hella expensive to make. Best episode in the season (so far) and probably one of the best episodes of them all. The four horsemen gave me genuine chills, and then Jon's swordfight with the one was just amazing. Snow living up to his title of Lord Commander. Fuck, I can't wait a whole goddamn week.

Crazy crazy crazy episode. That's how zombies are done. I've attempted a few times to watch TWD only to be incredibly disappointed. Everything else pales in comparison to this show.
Sansa, finally finds out that Bran and Rikkon are alive.
Arya on her way to being an assassin.
What? Are they seriously trying to get me to sympathize with Cersei? Damn. For a brief moment there...
Tyrion and Dany. Not enough compliments can be given to Peter Dinklage. That man man raises everyone's talent he's paired up with.
That end battle. Unfreakinbelievable! I watch the show with my wife who usually sits silent with the occasional comment here or there. I've never seen her so excited or tense during a scene. It was awesome. I got so wrapped up in the fact that Long Claw stopped the White Walkers blade, that I then completely MISSED the fact Jon killed the White Walker. What a moment. And what was even more amazing, is that other then the Wilding mom, everyone important made it out when it looked like many wouldn't.

Seriously, did you see the look on Jon's face?
You can't stop that, nothing on Westeros has the capability to even remotely stop that wave of death. Once they find a way to travel past the wall (they can't touch it, Children of the Forest put that magic shit in it) it's going to be GG unless Danny and her Dragons come in as support.
My theory. You have a huge army of the dead that is ranging in the tens of thousands at this point, to maybe 100K. Fuck going through the gate, you can literally make a wall of dead and scale over the wall and just rain down death over it to open the gate on the other side. Or they are literally waiting for Winter and can't survive in other climates, and once the seas freeze over they are just going to walk around.
