People are hyping up today's episode ridiculously. Apparently its one of the best in the show.

Kinda slow in the beginning but it gets real good towards the end.
Like a mini

Spoiler:
hardhome

Overall it's good

Again ...

Spoiler:
Hold the door

Welp. It takes the entire freaking episode, but then the feels hit and you're like "F***"

Seriously, I was mentally writing this down as a decent but unspectacular episode in the final minute or two, then like 30 seconds later my eyes were misty.

The most powerful

Spoiler:
death since Ned Stark's

That set the precedent, sure, but I'm not sure it tops the Red Wedding or Oberyn. But yes, this is instantly in the discussion, not just because of what happened, but because of the gut-punch revelation behind the character.

Right in the feels

🙁

Holy crap

Could have been Bloodraven/Bran shenanigans

I felt absolutely nothing from this one.

His origin was pretty interesting, I guess.

So

Spoiler:
are people just so affected by Hodor's death because he's a retard or something? Because I do not give a flying **** about Hodor's story or his death.

perhaps if the character was given more than one phrase to say the entire fcking 5 seasons until now, I may have had some sort of attachment to him, but as it stands, his death meant nothing to me.

The origin of his name was a cool revelation, but no feels were harmed in the making of this episode.

in terms of emotional impact, this death doesn't come close to the likes of:

Robb/Talisa/Cate
Ned
Jon
Shireen
Oberyn
Drogo

The death in this episode that upset me was Summer's. I really don't get why Hodor touched you people in such a way. Shit, i felt more Grief watching that one female wildling die during the Hardhome massacre than i did Willis (sp?... probably not spelled that way... 'cause it's Game of Thones, afterall. probably Wylls or some shit). 😬

anyway, meh.

I felt more from Roose's death than Hodor's.

I don't think it's his death which impacted me as much as the revelation that

Spoiler:
Bran had inadvertently reached back through time and crippled Willis's mind turning him into Hodor and he had to live out his life as a mentally disabled giant until he fulfilled his destiny as the fodder to save Bran simply because Bran interacted with the Night King on the astral plane. That's a f*cked up predestination paradox.

Best part for me though was Fake Sansa.

you shut up

I feel like they killed Summer just to keep dwindling down the direwolves. Ghost is the only one left now, right?

Because honestly, her sacrifice was pointless. It didn't really slow them down, and Leaf would have just blown them up anyway. They still would have gotten through the door. And then they would have had a direwolf that can actually protect them because it's not fighting dozens of zombies all at once.

don't forget nymeria. she hitched a ride on gendry's boat.

I completely did forget her. It's hard to remember one of them when they weren't brutally and needlessly murdered to make the show more edgy.
