You just reinforced my mockery, thank you.

One of my favorite episodes this season, up until that abysmally stupid last 5 minutes. I hope Dany gets shit on next season. Good stuff though:

1. Tywin is a badass. Great scene with him and his son and grandson.
2. I could watch a 3 hour Stannis Baratheon movie. Although I'm very happy Gendry got away.
3. Arya Begins.
4. Nikolai Coster-Waldau and the Rose Leslie can give great performances with a bare minimum of dialogue.
Overall, 55 minutes of a great episode.

edit: I forgot one thing
ramsay what the fuck ramsay no
Spot on. :clap:

First of all, I don't understand why anyone would dislike this finale, the last scene was pretty fucking epic.

Second, Arya is a fucking badass.

and
I loved the fact that headless Robb with Grey Wind's head was put in, I think I would have cried if it wasn't referenced in some way.

also "The Dead Starks" should totally be a band

I really liked this episode it was filled with fantastic dialogue, and many good scenes. For a finale it didn't have anything huge, but rather packed with more consistancy, and a finish that will please most. The standouts were Stannis/Melisandres/Davos, Arya, and Cersei for me. All of those storylines were fantastic, despite
The short interaction between Jaime, and Cersi(I WANTED MORE!!!!) fucking emotional
Other thoughts...
WTF YGRITTE!!!! :evil:

The last scene was good, and beautifully done, but Daenarys story still isn't very intriguing for me. It wont mean much in the long run though, and her storyline relies on these moments that try to be epic, and sometimes fall short.

I was ready for your comments on Ygritte. Rose Leslie sure sold that scene. And I'm glad someone agrees with me about Dany.

Only Dany fanbots would be pleased with that ending imo.

Such an awful/predictable ending for a finale. Sigh.

Yeah I struggle between wanting to like the ending more than I actually did, her story line feels somewhat forced at times, but the execution is rather good at times when drawing emotion. Apart of me was disappointed when I saw her in the last scene thinking, how are they going to make this an epic ending without being predictable. I wont say it was abysmal, but in terms of ending a season it fell short in terms of that HOLY SHIT factor like the previous seasons.

I've honestly never been quite interested in the Stannis storyline, but Davos seems like a good chap, and that scene pretty well done.
