I literally only watched the last five minutes and I don't regret missing the rest of the episode based on what I just read on tumblr.

pretty cool and unexpected explanation for Hodor being Hodor tbh. His time as Hodor pretty much became a complete circle

The whole ending sequence was pretty great I thought. Sooo much better than the original Children/Wight fight from S4. The only thing I don't get is how the hell Meera/Bran are gonna get away (: I mean maybe they don't but I can't see Hodor's sacrifice being for nothing. Won't the White Walkers just catch up to them within minutes since Meera is forced to drag Bran the entire time?

Kingsmoot was...underwhelming. The setting was so much cooler in the books rather than just a small group on a cliffside during the day. And I don't really get why they gave Yara pretty much the same agenda as Euron (conquer everything). Her stance was the complete opposite in the books and would've been more interesting here. But I guess if they're giving her part of Victarion's storyline that might be why they changed her ideology too? Meh

I feel like there's almost no way Arya actually sticks to the plan this time and this is gonna end up with her retrieving Needle and running back to Westeros. I just wonder who she'll actually kill. The guy playing Ned??

Best episode of the season for me I think?? I think I liked the...2nd one maybe but everything here worked for me more or less

- Littlefinger/Sansa scene was real good, I liked seeing aggressive Sansa and defensive/worried Littlefinger

- I don't have the Kingsmoot in the book to compare it to, but I at least liked Yara and Theon scrambling away to the ships during the voice over

- THE JORAH SCENE. Ugh. This was actually the most I've liked Dany in a long while, and the most emotion I've felt from a Dany related scene...ever? Her knowing Jorah was dying and that it was basically her fault for banishing him. I was really worried that would be it, but then my favorite scene came where she ordered him to heal himself. I don't see that happening but I really hope it does, Jorah might be my favorite character but I've never seen anything other than a tragic ending for him :(

- Arya at Braavos was still boring. I liked the play tho, especially the sad portrayal of Ned

- Liked seeing Varys somewhat on the defense like Littlefinger with the Priestess calling back to his mutilation. We don't know anything about the voice or what it said to him do we?

- Tormund's look towards Brienne

- The Hodor scene ofc. Fun that Jack Bender got the cool time travel effecting shit episode. That kinda has huge implications. Bran could go back and end up causing a lot of stuff to have happened potentially?? I'm sure they do more than just this Hodor moment. The entire Hodor thing was vry tragic, I'm upset about it

Felt like an important episode overall. The show didn't drag its feet like it's been doing this/last several seasons, it seems like a lot of plot lines and characters are coming into their own (all Stark kids) or being pushed in the right direction to fulfill whatever their ultimate goal will be

oh and the Children of the Forest shit still is pretty awful for me overall. I cannot stand the way they're designed. Everything about them feels and looks straight out of a Doctor Who or Star Trek episode, it's so bad

Bran causing all of this chaos because he was a curious idiot was also meh

And the Children of the Forest creating the White Walkers was incredibly lame. I'm not sure I ever wanted the origin of the White Walkers to be explained, but I definitely did not want it to be that. That was underwhelming

exactly what I was thinking. I think it helped a lot that Clarke actually...acted. Almost all her scenes she's either playing smug or stoic, but this time she ACTUALLY showed some convincing vulnerability for once

I think there's a chance he actually does find a way to cure it tbh. We do know that it's possible since Shireen was healed, it's just extremely difficult/rare. At the very least, if he doesn't get healed I feel like he's headed for a big sendoff. Otherwise there'd be no reason to extend his story like this
