Yeah Randill Tarly was great. I get why people say he is a discount Tywin Lannister but he had like 3 minutes of screen time so it's not like he could show a lot besides the strict, disappointed father who basically hates Sam. I think he played it great, if he was any nicer then i might have wondered why he would threaten to kill his son and then be a decent person to him .
Hopefully we will see more of him (which should be guaranteed since Sam decided to steal that sword)!

Oh come on. We don't know how much time passed, and this kind of plot hole is almost unavoidable.

Have you ever realized Luke Skywalker did basically his whole training in the time it took for Solo and the Falcon Crew to go from Hoth to the City Cloud?

But Empire would be a weird movie if it stopped for 3 years the time Luke learnt to master the force properly.

To get really good at something like martial art takes years and years and years. So as a story teller, well, you have to take shortcuts. Unless you go full stupid and just upload it in your brain like in the Matrix (talk about missing the whole fucking point about kung fu by the way).

Disappointing that Benjen was not at a surprise at all, talking about the future cast should count as a spoiler. How is it fun to look up/know cast lists at the start of a season?

It's very possible to avoid if you don't go looking for it. It was actually the first spoiler of any kind I've had in 6 seasons. Most people don't go out of their way to check the cast lists of upcoming seasons and episodes. It's fine if they want to check but broadcasting about returning cast members (assumed dead) and their return dates is really dickish. It's very easy to avoid youtube comment sections and the like, the only risk is reading on here but I had faith in the moderation.


I didn't quote it before because I wanted to protect others, but this crap has no place in the thread.

this is quite normal actually.. So many points you could attack the series at but of all things you choose this which just happens in real life. Brown eyed/haired people can have alleles for blond hair and blue eyes.

I dont get it either. It seems like a "fuck you dad, i hate you!" moment. It's dumb as fuck even though i guess this move will be of vital importance later on where they need something to kill a walker and THANK GOD they stole that sword a couple episodes ago

Never mind that this season is past the books so is there such a thing as spoilers anymore? There's only, what, season and a half left of the series...?

I think it's a symbolic gesture. The Sam that left Horn Hill for the wall basically felt that he had no right to his family's legacy; that he doesn't have any right or worth to carry on his family.

The Sam that's leaving Horn Hill now is finally starting to turn that around and see his own worth (hence why he comes for Gilly). I think taking the sword is supposed to show Sam's development in self confidence, that he's finally starting to see his worth and value.
