I don't think Season 8 will air until 2019 personally.

Looking forward to trying to avoid spoilers tomorrow! Can't believe how big the show has become.. I still remember watching the pilot back when it first aired all those years ago in 2011!

That opening sequence *.*

A nice opening episode which you can feel just sets things up and it's only a matter of time until shit literally goes down!

IT'S SO GOOD TO HAVE IT BACK wub.gif

I love her and Cersei - easily my two favourite characters and was very close to going with Seansei Lannister instead kink.gif

I'm definitely rooting for Daenerys to walk these next two seasons! It wasn't until Cersei and Jaime were on the painted map that I realised she was probably going to be killed off this season or executed or something like that due to being drastically outnumbered.

"Shall we begin?" YES PLEASE

So glad it's back. Decent opening episode, setting up the pathways well. Arya in the opening sequence too, getting her character right again this series please after a few drab storylines in the past <3

I had chills!!!

I warmed to Arya in this episode as did I with Sansa and neither have drawn my attention before like they did in this episode. I'm definitely here for a more gutsy/ballsy Sansa cheer.gif

Did anyone else notice GOT had David Bradley aka the guy playing The Doctor in the xmas special rip his face off to reveal a woman.

Spooky

God I had chills from the opening scene once it all clicked, what a way to open the series that pretty much justifies Arya's shortcomings lately with one awesome moment.

And to follow that up with a huge scene discussing Northern politics (Karstark, Umber and Glover references are always welcome for me), Arya meeting Ed Sheeran - in a nice friendly scene we shall call 'Arya rediscovers her humanity before inevitably brutally murdering more people to be safe', Daenerys' 'shall we begin', there was so much good happening.

It was themed so much better than many past opening episodes I've noticed. Season 2 had the comet like the book did but this had constant references to the theme of holding on to power and made a big focus on the Wall which speculation spoilermeans I think it's got to be falling soon, Sandor seeing it in the flames, I got so many chills when he described Eastwatch which we'd already heard was going to be manned by Tormund.

And then there was Sam hearing about the Wall and the Long Night from the Grandmaester, and then him finding the big solution that Dragonstone is hiding just before we get that wonderful sequence reintroducing itself to the audience as a setting for Daenerys to base herself from, it was all paced so VERY PLEASINGLY.

Very strong opening episode and the strongest opening episode for several seasons, only weak thing I thought was Euron's performance which seemed a little off.

IT IS BACK AND I LOVE IT YAY

Daenerys just casually stealing the whole episode with just a single line of dialogue *.

Still, great episode nonethless, I mean I would've loved anything rlly as it's been so long laugh.gif The openings always just feel like catch ups and reminders of where everyone is, but this managed to maintain tension and introduce new paths. I'm really intrigued where The Hound and Samwell are going to go.

Oh and yes that was a hell of an opening, SO happy to see Arya in an interesting storyline at last! (Preferably not too much Sheeran coming up though plz x)

The Ed Sheeran cameo felt so tacky and forced as well as cringe that it really took me out of it for a moment. Good episode otherwise.

I did have the thought that the song he was singing was just like some random song off Divide. Nothing on the wonderful Rains of Castamere by either The National or Sigur Rós, or the Bear and the Maiden Fair even. Those felt set within the series, this was just Sheeran getting himself everywhere. And the camera was on him far too much.

The rest of the scene served a good purpose though I thought, to remind us that most foot soldiers don't give a shit about who's ruling the kingdoms and are actually decent people. It'll be interesting to see what Arya does with them, I half wondered whether her drunken 'joke' was a test to try and get them to antagonise her so she had a reason to kill.

I cringed so hard seeing Sheeran. Apart from him, I really enjoyed the episode. That opener with Arya had me fistpumping and I actually found it quite chilling hearing Cersei be SO cold - referencing her kids as "just ash". Her calling Olenna Tyrell an old c**t had me chuckling tho.. laugh.gif
