That moment you realise Melisandre arriving was unexpected and so the fire araks were a bonus. Meaning they were originally going to charge with the fire-less versions, even blinder and less effective. End me. Edit: I can see a lot of people want coverage for episode 4, what I can tell you is that I have already began working on a season 8 recap in total and it will hopefully release soon after the last episode does...stay tuned folks, it's gonna be long....*sigh*

One more intense than Hardhome, more intense than Beyond the Wall. It's going to shock the fans" If we saw Jon, Briene, Jamie, Jorah or anyone with Valerian Steel fight and kill the WW's and then Jon went 1v1 vs the NK- I can totally see the NK winning that fight and kicking Jon's ass, but before the NK can kill Jon- he's saved from Arya. It's a payoff that would have more worthy than the one that we got.

Why did they even go that far north of the wall to get a wight to show Cersei and Daenarys? Take some low life criminal on death row and kill him on the other side of the wall. Anyone that dies north of the wall turns into a wight at that point in the show. If they did this then NK doesn’t kill any dragons and wall is never breached. They would have to build ships or cross the bridge of skulls at westwatch-by-the-bridge. Also why are the heavily armored knights of the vale not on horseback? I’m sure heavily armored lancer cavalry would do much better in a charge than the Dothraki would with kopesh swords and some horse archers here and there.

What infuriates me is that a large story in an omnibus handles an undead invasion like this a million times better than a multi-million dollar show. Gotrek and Felix, while set in the Warhammer Fantasy world with vastly different magic systems and technology (mostly renaissance stuff for the main human faction) still understands the very basics of this kind of this shit, AND actually dives into some nuances of how a siege like this would go. This shouldn't have been a one-episode thing. Winterfell is a massive fortress with countless defenders and some of the most brilliant minds in the setting. This should have been a long, drawn out siege of attrition, where the Night King is sending wave after wave of his minions against the walls of a fortress that the defenders have spent weeks preparing. It should have been a series of brutal, violent battles where the defenders spent day after day throwing back countless waves of wights, fighting to the brink of exhaustion while the dragons wear themselves to the bone trying to burn as many of the wights as possible. The defenders employ every defensive tactic under the sun: oil, spike traps, spear walls, holding key choke points. Everything. But the wights just keep on coming. Each character would get their moment to shine contributing to the defense while trying to work under the pressure of the fate of the world on their shoulders. But nope.

Even as someone who doesn't personally like Game Of Thrones, I just feel absolutely horrible for all the fans... The amount of passion and structure that went into this video as well as the next two is just mind-blowing to me. The fans, hell even the cast deserved so much better. I remember being vaguely aware of the audience pushback towards the end of GOT's run on HBO, but these in depth videos on why fans are so pissed never fail to leave me with my mouth hanging open. What D&D did to the 8th season is up there with Rian Johnson's decisions in directing in the Last Jedi from a pure character assassination standpoint. And this is just the episode where it started to go downhill, its fucking nothing compared to how much they dropped the ball in the next episodes following this. D&D's decision to speed through and wrap up this final season as quickly as possible so they could bug out and work on Star Wars was fucking absurd. I honestly can't believe HBO just allowed them to get away with ending the series like that considering how massive a show it was for them, and the tons of material and plot glossed over that probably could have kept the show going for another full season or two.

That's not all they put there artillery right in the front so when the cavalry dies the artillery may deal enough close range damage to end them only to run out of ammo at the last second. The fucking Greenskins are better strategists than these people cause at least when they charge they are smart enough to ensure that some "sneaky git" is going to be right behind and ruin you and they are smart enough to launch squigs at you. At least they put their artillery right behind some big boyz.

JagerIV Yeah, it did. Frodo failed, and in that moment of distraction and weakness, Gollum (who is consumed by his need for the ring), takes the opportunity to get the ring back. Gollum was so set on getting the ring that even when he was falling into Mt. Doom, he was still happy. Gollum was only there to take back the ring, that was his only motivation.

@@MercurialStatic I didn't realize that person was being sarcastic. There's heavy foreshadowing that Gollum has a very significant role to play, it's highlighted many times, and when he destroys the ring it's a satisfying payoff. It rewards the mercy of both Frodo and Bilbo. Arya coming out of fucking nowhere doesn't pay off any foreshadowing or complete any arcs. It's just a plot twist invented on the spot for the sake of avoiding the expected.

I can't believe they destroyed 8 years of intrigue in a single episode. I've never seen a shark-jumping moment like this before.
