[Bobby dazzler]

didn't see that ending coming

what a twist every week

enthralling viewing :thumbsup:

 

[Uncle Leo]

Oh. Right. Didn't see that coming. Golly.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Schoolboy error.

Should have put the boot in when his man was down.

Interesting to read that episode nine may well all be centred around just one plot line (Castle Black/Wildlings/Jon Snow/Ygritte/The Wall/etc)

 

[MK Shrimper]

Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that Oberyn's sister/lover may get some revenge on the Lannisters now. I can see Jaime and Tyrion surviving...Tywin, Cersei however.....

Shame, loved the Red Viper.

 

[Uncle Leo]

They're good friends really...

 

[blues_r_best]

Hard to believe that The Mountain is only 25.

 

[BrettieAngell]

Brutal ending! Where the **** did they get that bloke from?? He is huge!

 

[Uncle Leo]

Forgot to say - good to see Missandei in the nip. More of that please.

WHSG alumni.

There better be a decent reason for killing Oberyn off, because he was the standout character from this season. I'm still sulking TBH.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

What a way to go though.

Oh there's three reasons for killing him off. One, Prince Doran comes to the fore, who is an interesting character. Two, we see the Sand Snakes, who I can't wait to see, and three, well, spoiler alert

  Spoiler:  

the Mountain dies anyway thanks to a poisoned tip

Napster knows something you don't.
















Unless you've read the books.

Well I've never heard of Prince Doran or the Sand Snakes.

Anyway, this alternative ending is much better...

Good episode even if it was wall-centric, very reminiscent of Lord Of The Rings' Helms Deep.

 

[Pubey]

It was alright, the tracking shot was good (showing that you don't need **** loads of CGI to make a good scene). the stuff in the castle was good and the bits with the scythe and giants were cool, but i feel the whole thing lacks an overall sense of scale and size. Felt like quite a lot of standing around and gassing as well!

Just realised the significance of who killed Ygrette which was a good touch.
