So many major moments tonight...I can't help but think a lot of them would have been better in previous episodes. Not to say that it wasn't a good one. It was. My only problem was that they tried to conclude so many stories in such a short space of time that some were a bit lackluster.
The moments they actually took their time on were great. The walk of shame was spot on, one of the best scenes of the season by far. Likewise, the last scene with Jon was done well too. Thankfully Olly only played a bit part in it.
Overall, it hasn't been a bad season. But I'd have to say it was my least favorite thus far. It didn't help that Dorne was handled so poorly. All those scenes were so meh.
I think they should extend the seasons from here onward. 10 episodes really isn't enough for a story of this scale, especially when they average in at about 45 minutes rather than a full hour. With each season the challenges of adapting such a huge story make themselves more apparent. | |

Also, what was the deal with Varys just appearing out of nowhere at Meereen?
I swear I thought Tyrion was imagining him at first. I was expecting him to fade away when they finished talking. | |

Finally caught up. Not bad. Dorne was absolute shit which stinks because I loved it in the books. The sandsnakes were absolutely pointless. Ellaria could have represented all three and nothing would have changed. Her killing Myrcella was rough though.
The Wall stuff was cool. Glad Sam is off to go do his maestering stuff. Lord of Bones cameo was great. The fight was great, really enjoyed that addition. Jon's death wasn't as good as in the books, seemed kind of obvious, but that could also be because I knew.
Glad Winterfell stayed a similar plot with Sansa taking the role instead. The battle was pretty lame though. I hope Stannis isn't dead. Kind of lame ending for him. The Shireen stuff was brutal to watch.
Melisandre will definitely resurrect Jon, which makes me wonder what will happen in the books.
Mereen is okay. Jorah constantly fighting to get attention was kind of repetitive. Hizdahr was kind of a dud. I thought he was a lot more intriguing in the books.
Arya's stuff was pretty good. I don't really remember much of her story, I got to refresh myself. Also, could they just forget about Bran? That would be nice.
Cersei's stuff was really good. The scene of her walking through the city was as powerful as it was in the books. Curious why we didn't see Kevan at all though (or maybe I just missed him).
Good Stuff. On with Season 6!

Why would it be different? Melisandre is at Castle Black in the books too. I doubt they'd change much about an event THAT big
Also Kevan showed up at the end of Cersei's walk. Kinda disappointed he wasn't in more of this season, I loved him verbally slamming Cersei in the books. I would've thought they'd at least have his scene in Cersei's cell but they gave that to Qyburn instead (another character I wish could've been shown more) | |

I saw that too but that's an old quote from him. They're adamant about Jon's death too but I believe that even less
But yeah if either of them actually is dead those will be the worst send-offs imaginable. I think the worst part about Stannis' would be them not even showing it because it'd apparently be 'gratuitous'. From a show that had a far more minor character in Oberyn get his head caved in onscreen | |
