That's because I haven't downloaded the episode yet.

I've not even watched the previous week. I already know I'm not going to like a particular scene. I know nothing of last night yet.

I think the collective universe liked that particular scene.

Well, there is a certain perspective where a certain character needed to be given that.

Problem is, it's at the expense of a character that didn't need to be doing that.


Then again, in the later books, GRRM has a slight lack of distinct antagonists to hate.

I am very disappointed that Coldhands hasn't made an appearance, and of the severe departure from the book's Bran story arc. The "birth" of the White Walker was an unexpected and appreciated suprise.


I will wait to see how things turn out I guess.

I think they'll address it, but not in sync with the book's story line. They already made changes to make Bran's story line more interesting. The surviving Nights Watch traitors and Coldhands meet were suppose to do battle at Crasters. Coldhands leads Bran to the greenseer, so it's a critical character to omit entirely. They also omitted "warging" between Ned Stark's children and their direwolves. Bran is seemingly the only one that can do it so far.

To me it is strange why we haven't seen Coldhands since any actor could play his part, but then again we have seen his ravens. I am just worried that they won't include him since he is one of the most intriguing characters for me.

I also liked when when Arya was semi-warging with Nymeria in the books, so that is a bit disappointing that it isn't included in the show.

since the show is diverging from the books, here is my theory for this week's episode:

( Click to show/hide )
bran wargs into hodor, and hodor/bran breaks free and helps bran, jojen and meera escape before jon shows up. that way they never meet as in the books.

although the preview showed jon et al attacking those at crasters keep, so hodor can't do too much damage (would be nice to see him wreck ****!).

i agree we need to see more warging. definitely been glossed over in the show compared to the books.

If I'm not mistaken, we're not at that part in Arya's story where she starts having the wolf dreams. It's been over a year since I've read the books, but I thought it was after her time with the Hound.

loved the past two episodes. the (last?) scene between jamie and brienne was almost hard to watch because the actors did a great job conveying the emotions going on behind the words. loved the name of the sword, too. very fitting. the scene jamie and tyrion was awesome as well. despite both being so hard headed they still show a little brotherly love. dat ending doe!!!

I wouldn't say they were diverging...more like reorganizing the scenes. Don't forget, some of the events in the book span months or years, while some span days. I think HBO is trying to keep each storyline at a good pace to keep it interesting.

REAL SPOILER FOR BOOK READERS
( Click to show/hide )
HBO inadvertently revealed that the white walker in last episodes, last scene with the baby was the Night's King. If you've read the books, it's a huge spoiler and rules out that Coldhands is the Night's King as some had theorize.

Drex; nailed it!

Great episode, especially the portrayal of Lysa. The show does such a great job of bringing the books to life visually.
