It was an hour of "oh I remember him"

Boring

It did give another hint that the night king is a Taygarean though. Also Jon's face when Sam told him the truth
Did I just bone my aunt

I'll agree it was slightly one of those episodes but what did you expect from a first episode of the season?

Not sure I feel comfortable with Arya whipping her kit off

Another episode where nowt really happened. It is building towards the big battle though.

I agree seeing Arya getting her kit off was a little weird alright

I was under the impression all episodes this season were meant to be feature length

I think 2 maybe 3 episodes are longer then the usual 60 minutes length

My thoughts (many spoilers):

SpoilerShow

Watched it before work, not sure if it's just my expectations but this wasn't as epic as I thought it was going to be. The show has literally been building up to this moment and I dunno, thought it'd be better.

One of my pet hates in any show/movie is the big bad guy/girl dying because they spend too long getting round to it or bragging about how they're going to kill you instead of just doing it, so imagine my frustration here with the longest walk up/sword pull in history. Didn't expect it to be Arya though - and on that, Jon was surprisingly quiet.

Potential plot hole too - the Hound and Red woman locked in that room with the one eyed chap and a bunch of other dead people. We assuming the Hound took care of them all when the Night King raised more of the dead up?

The one bit I loved was Arya in the room being quiet, I was on the edge of my seat and actually felt quite anxious, great scene.

I'll watch it again and probably change my opinions but for now i'm meh.

I thought it was super obvious that Arya was gonna kill the Night King as soon as Beric died saving her and the red woman said that he couldn’t be brought back to life because he’d finally done what he needed to do.

I agree about the Night King taking too long to kill Bran, unnecessary as Arya could have jumped earlier and it would have been just as exciting if not more so.

Overall I thought it was quite a let down as an episode and very predictable. The only scene that really had me feeling tense was Arya hiding in the scene you mentioned.

At the time of watching I thought the blue eye thing was about Dani in my defence it was early!
