    Oh, and that Roman fighting tactic used, the wall of shields and spears, the producers made great use of history in that situation.
    "The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984

    "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

    "Good news! We have a delivery." Professor Farnsworth

      We kept exclaiming that if Wun Wun had any kind of weapon the tactic would be screwed. He didn't, though, so it was effective.

        Seriously. Just give Wun Wun a ****ing tree or something
        If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

        BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!

        At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

        Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

          The only problem was how predictable it all was. We knew everything that would happen.

                He was right. He is part of her now.

                My God, the Starks are the greatest argument in history against feudalism. Their ineptitude gets them killed, which is fine, but it gets everybody else killed too. They're what would happen if the Bushes and Kennedys intermarried.

                    So, next episode, I imagine we see an update from all of the storylines, with significant developments in most if not all of them.

                    Dany sails for Westeros.
                    Cersei's Trial
                    Arya gets to Westeros/Winterfell
                    Brienne encounters the Brotherhood
                    Night's King reaches the Wall
                    Bran and Benjen get south of the Wall
                    Tower of Joy conclusion

                    All are possibilities

                      Is anyone else taking note of the "women's revolution" happening right now.

                      In almost every corner of the map a woman is either in power or jostling for it.

                      Dorne, Dany, Yara, Sansa, Cersei...

                      Also, the last episode HAS to end with the whitewalkers either walking right through the wall or completely dismantling and crumbling it to the ground.

                        Agree 100%. That will be quite the cliffhanger.

                          Read a very interesting observation. The last time we saw the Brotherhood Without Banners, in like season 2 or 3, they settled their scores with combat, in fact, Sandor had to fight Beric and it was on screen. Now, this season, we have been told, by Beric and Thoros, that the Brotherhood strictly uses hanging, not combat, to execute their enemies. So, why the change of heart? Is it because the Brotherhood has a new leader, a leader that, in the books, has a preference for hanging?

                            One of my favorite continuing themes, especially this season, is how all the Stark kids are all low-key privileged and terrible. They're the Michael Bluth of Westeros, not realizing they're just as insane as the rest.

                            Cersei's trial is supposed to be the main event next week. This past episode was cool from a visual standpoint, but it was basically a Michael Bay movie. Lots of big budget effects, no story.

                                While I do agree that we won't see her, just because they say she's not going to appear, doesn't mean she won't. They don't have a duty to not mislead and lie to people to keep plot points secret. I just though that this change of philosophy by the Brotherhood was an interesting observation that someone made.
