I don't know, this Azor Ahai stuff has been losing momentum ever since Jon Snow revived and nothing really happened. Perhaps in the books it'll be different, but the show haven't been giving tips about for quite a while, other than melisandre saying Dany and Jon have a part to play in the future.

Well, they had the whole thing where Melissandre said she thought Daenerys could be the princeSS that was promised, and that the original prophecy in high Valyrian was gender neutral (not sure whether that was spelled out in the books, or just a generally accepted fan theory based on other knowledge about high Valyrian). So the PtwP is definitely still a thing in the series. There's also the question whether they will deal with it more in the show or leave it at that, because I don't think the show ever mentioned Azor Ahai or the prophecy surrounding him: I think it only talked about the PtwP, and Azor Ahai is exclusive to the books.

Regardless, the series could spin this differently from the books. But in the books, I think this theory has a good chance of being true: it ticks all the boxes.

You say this all the time but in reality i almost everytime say that the episode was decent and that i enjoy the show enough to keep watching. I simply point out the bad things because the "good things" keep being the same (actors, cinematography, production value, etc)

About this episode: The only scene which was actually good was the little talk between dany and tyrion. The rest was bad imo. I would need to think about it more but i think it migth be the worst episode of GoT ever

I think it's up there. The dialogue between The Hound and Tormund was mindblowingly bad, I thought. My eyes went wide when Tormund said "I want to have babies with her". It didn't strike me as fun, just outright silly. Same for Dany and Jon in the cabin, the pace really stops me from believing their connection.

Dragons were cool though.

some talking points:

Dany showing up in time made no sense whatsoever, that was actually teleporting
The tension between Arya and Sansa seems to be incredibly fake, especially the last scene
The expedition in the north actually had no plan, it was just mere coincidence that they found a small group of wights and one stays intact after killing the ww
the killing of the dragon wasn't done well imo, he simply throws a spear, ok
the action scenes could have been the redeeming quality of the episode, but even these weren't that great

but sure we have a wight dragon now, that's neat

They'll do an awful, awful lot better vs the wights once someone points out that you only need to kill the White Walkers and we have these mobile ranged flying strike platform that are capable of deep penetration behind enemy lines. Breathing fire on the wights is cool and all but they're a bitch to kill, are easily replaceable, and not all that dangerous.

I'd bet $100% sure that we're gonna see two dragons fighting in an epic midair battle because why the hell would you even have the undead dragon if you didn't plan to do that. But to kill the undead dragon all you need to do is kill the white walker.

Couldn't resist any longer,so I just watched it...

I normally don't complain about teleportation, but the raven and the dragons must fly pretty damn fast if the round trip took only 1 night. I have mixed feelings about the episode: dragons and fight scenes were great, but everything else not so much. I hate it that I complain too much lately, but things made sense in earlier seasons, they were grounded and there was very little plot armor, basically everything was believable. Seems that's out the window now and we have full-on Hollywood style show, which is entertaining granted, but on a more spectacular, or shall I say, shallow way. I don't mind the fan service, in fact I expect that to be in full swing in the upcoming books too, but I think there should be a pinch of reality in there somewhere.
Smile, tomorrow will be worse

Looks like the only way to enjoy this show is watching it how you're supposed to watch a zombie show - with your brain turned off. I'm complaining, but I really did enjoy this action-packed mess. Don't have much hopes for the upcoming events in King's Landing and Winterfell though, those are going to to be cringey.

There is no way Martin will write something like this, r-right?

I'm not sure of that actually. You'll notice the Night King doesn't just raise Viserion from the dead, he touches him and his eyes turn blue. Which is the same thing that happened with Craster's last son (and seemingly all other sons). So I'm thinking Viserion is actually not a wight, but a "white walker dragon"; which means he would be vulnerable to dragonglass and Valyrian Steel and killing the Night King wouldn't bring him down.

It's a moot point really, as I don't see the Night King dying before Viserion anyway. But what I'm getting at is: prepare yourself for GoT's Black Arrow moment, where people have to melt several Valyrian Steel swords to forge one scorpion bolt, and have Bronn fire it to kill Viserion.

That was a pretty good throw. I like how John tells them to peace out. And apparently dragons fly real fast, but I bet that math works out. Those dragons have to haul ass to get out of frame all the time(for real, they must haul ass)

All and all, fun banter and the Arya Sansa seen was good.
