Way better than the tedious pre-battle solidarity and actorly guff of last week's build-up. I might even watch it again
Hmm, I thought it was a bit of a shame to 'resolve' 7 seasons of planning with an hour and a half of of "Dead are gonna win, dead are gonna win, dead are gonna win... Ninja Arya with
the 1 hit boss instakill"Unless they follow up with a bit more story on Bran/Night King then the whole 3 eyed raven storyline was a bit pointless, ending up with Bran just being bait for a fighter to step in and finish it.
Was a very impressive display of pyrotechnics but the pace of the last season or so as the books have been overtaken by TV has been a shame.
duncs-
7 seasons of planning
6 seasons of planning, 1 season of rushed getting-everything-into-place-and-a-lot-of-travelling
A single episode battle & resolution saves us from tortured and clumsy cliffhangers, or any more of the season 7 jump from set piece to set piece with filler in between.
It allows the story to move more fluidly.
Or something.

I kept taking my glasses on and off to see if it helped with the confusing darkness and wobblecam action but yeah, overall bum-clenchingly brilliant I thought. Way better than the tedious pre-battle solidarity and actorly guff of last week's build-up. I might even watch it again.
