I assume at least a few of you watch the show.  For those that do.  Holy Flaming Arakh was that episode intense.  I was literally sweating.

I thought more people would comment but I guess a lot haven't watched it yet.  I have to admit, they distracted me enough that I did not see Arya coming.  So many great scenes, but Lyanna Mormont taking out the giant had me cheering the most.  I just wish it wasn't so dark.  I had a hard time following a lot of the scenes, especially the dragon claw to claw combat.

Talk about bad defense on the night kings part. Arya rips in there and ends it. The question is who will rule Westeros? You can actually bet online ...I'm putting my Money on Ayra... Also calling that after Jaime's baby is born he slays Cersie... Only three episodes to go, unfair.

Arya was pretty obviously going to be the one to end things right after the Red Woman's little speech to her....

After the slow and deliberate pace from the books and the previous seasons it's crazy seeing things resolved this fast.

Now that they've expediently wrapped up the Night King issue, what happens in the next 3 episodes??

The problem with the fight against the Night King is that is kind of had to be this way.  Before this episode, I couldn't figure out what other outcomes there could possibly be.  They either defeat him or everyone dies and becomes his army unless he went somewhere else on his dragon, but it seemed unlikely that he would not go after Bran.  In hindsight, Arya was the best choice to kill him because she is the only one sneaky enough to get close and we knew from last season that once he fell the whole army would fall.  I thought she was going to use one of their faces to try and get close to him but I loved the scene the way they did it.

Yup. Funny thing is George used straight up Dungeons and Dragons (he's a long time player reportedly) mechanics for the Night King death scene. 

Arya is a rogue, using sneak attack, with an ally within 5'.

Jaime and Breanna of Tarth? Jaime Lannister king of the mercy f@&$

Also maybe take remaining dragon and circle round the back of the ships and kick ass? What was that about?

My thoughts as well, although I think they might have been making a point that Dany was more concerned about Drogon than fighting for the fleet. I dunno. I also don't think those big cross bows can shoot straight up, so going high and coming straight down would also work.  Maybe she will do this at King's Landing next episode.

OK, so somebody has to take out Dany, but what about the dragon?  It is looking more and more like she kills the rest of the cast and takes the throne.  She has Unsullied, Dothraki and a dragon.  That is pretty unstoppable, just ask the Golden Company.  

C'mon Bran, warg into that dragon and make yourself useful.

Arya will kill the dragon. She is going to rule Westeros.

John snow dies

Dany dies

The Starks take the realm.

Hope he does something besides looking like the lead singer of def Leppard in a wheelchair.

But what if he sings Pour Some Sugar on Me at the Battle of King's Landing after party?
