It shows he doesn't know every fact from the past unless he specifically seeks out moments.

    Are Tormund and Beric alive? I say yes and we won't see Tormund die until he gets some sweet Brienne love.

    Sansa to Arya - 'You're still strange and annoying...'
    That's definitely a good metaphor about Bran, and it definitely played out last night.

    Definitely still alive IMO, they made it to a point beyond where the wall was crumbling apart.

    And loved that little quip by Sansa

    and so one of the visions from a past season was snow in the throne room at King's Landing.

    Did you guys catch the snowfall scene in the finale where Jaime notices it as he's riding away?

    And what the hell is Jaime doing by himself? Going to ride north without an army to fight with the good guys? At least pick up Bronn on the way and make it a delightful comedic road trip movie

So what has really been accomplished by the good guys? They are one dragon down and lord knows how many people, they've lost their fleet of ships the Unsullied sailed to Casterly Rock, and the wall is crumbling
    What was accomplished by the majority of the major point of view characters in the show that died over the past 7 seasons? I think if you take a step back and really think about it objectively, life's like that sometimes: cruel and pointless.

    Yeah the Bran thing came out of a million Twitter complaints about Bran not knowing about the marriage annulment. In the finale, he sets down the rules saying he can see events in the past, and in the present...all over the world. He doesn't know the future, he can't read minds and he hasn't seen every single event from the past. That would turn his head into mush.

    And I think Jon is going to get Dany pregnant so the 'relative reveal' is going to be fun

    Yes the show certainly did a good job showing that life ain't fair in past seasons.

    I was focusing more on Tyrion, his plans and the thing he is known for. His intelligence and cunning. He's made some pretty bad calls and if you remember, he was the guy who came up with the plan to get a wight in the scene where he met Jaime secretly.

    The show has come under fire that it's become a 'kinder, gentler' Game of Thrones since they went past where the books ended. Complaints of fan servicing with the reunions and events. Part of me agrees with that.

    I predict they both die in the fight, and Teh Hound will be smiling as he goes after the Mountain.

    In the two scenes with Cersei, the one with Tyrion and then the one with Jaime, I thought for sure that each one was going to die as the scenes played out. Good job of building the tension in both of them.

    I did like when Littlefinger went and 'demanded' that he be escorted out and taken to the Vale and the response he got was "I think not"

    What was Tyrion's comment before walking into Cersei's chamber? I'm going to speak with the most murderous woman in the world, what could go wrong?

    I didn't like the scene because of the set up. He was trapped and killed without a trial and wasn't allowed to do anything on his own behalf. I thought after seven seasons of Stark honor talk, they would have been a little more fair to him. Sure he was guilty and was going to die for it, but the swift severity was rather un-Stark-like.

    No, Tyrion and Jaime were talking about each of them being idiots, and Jaime claims that it's himself and that's when Tyrion says that line above and at the end says WHO'S THE BIGGER IDIOT
