I was wondering about Rhaegal, too. I thought when we didn't see him again that he'd probably died. But, he wasn't reanimated with the rest of the those defending Winterfell, so ....
We just needed Arya at the end grabbing Gendry and saying "Gimme some sugar, Baby. Long live the king," and then dipping him and kissing him.
Dothraki are best fighters and killers. They were dead in 30 sec and Sam Tarvel kills 100 of white walkers. You gotta be kidding me
Egregious misuse of dragons on both sides. Living dragons shoulda burnt the army of the dead before the Dothraki were ever let loose. But no, they waited for the initial slaughter, then waited some more so that the army of the living and the army of the dead were intermingled in hand-to-hand combat before raining fire from above - assuring that there were plenty of "friendly fire" deaths. Did this again once the trenches were finally lit - army of the dead just standing there with nowhere to go and no dragon fire whatsoever. UNTIL the AOTD breach the walls, at which point the dragons rain fire down into the midst of Winterfell. Fucking idiots. And then there's good ol' Night King flying his dragon over Winterfell, seeing his AOTD rampaging within the walls. All he has to do is point his dragon's head down and unleash a stream of blue fire and this game is over. But nah. Let's fly up into the clouds for some dragon-on-dragon violence. This series turned into a steaming pile of garbage.
yeah, it would have played out differently if Martin was involved....we wouldn't have season 8 till 2027
Did you guys miss that whole scene in the last episode? Sam was told he should be in the crypt and he said he was one of the few people who had actually killed a white walker and deserved to be there.
It seems like a lot of fans are bitching about Arya killing the NK, but honestly I'm more annoyed at Jon's horrible battle plan. George Patton would be sitting up on the hill - "helluva waste of fine infantry..."
Arya killing NK was the only part of the episode that was good! And by "good" I mean "not utter shit".
I remember that. But he's still pretty worthless during battles and is more of a distraction than he helps. Others are saving his ass all the time.
Yeah, I didn't mind that she was the one to do it but what the fuck was Bran's purpose then? The only other part of the Arya/Night King scene that was kind of lame was that Lyanna sort of killed the giant in the same fashion where they were being held and used their other arm to stab.
