@connorblaze - it's weird that we've reached the point where the heroes have pretty much every advantage. With Jon and Daenery's combined forces, both Cersei and the Night King are [frick]ed.

@FishyZombie - yeah true. Then again I thought that going into this season it was gonna be Cersei vs Everyone else in Westeros and she should be dead within the first hour. But they pulled some clever tricks to make them lose Dorne, Greyjoys, Unsullied and Tyrells. Although I hate how Tyrion has [frick]ed up every gig he's had since he hooked up with Dany. They've never given him a way to prove himself and how smart he is, because all his plans have gone to hell. When he was in charge of Mereen, he ended up getting all the masters attacking the city. He got all her allies in Westeros taken off the board. Even getting Jon to meet with her was Melissandre's idea. If I was Dany I'd think he was shit at being hand. He never earned it. Bad writing compared to the early seasons. They've made him her conscience and heart instead of her brains. And he's barely given lines to be witty or cheeky anymore. Since he left Westeros he's been dull. Shame.

Anyway maybe they'll figure out a way to level out the white walker battle beyond giving them a dragon. But tbh i hate that it's all about the walkers now. I wanted the end to be focussed on a 'game of thrones' between littlefinger, cersei, dany and jon. Way more interesting than good vs evil zombie stuff, when we know the good guys will win that fight. The political stuff has always been the best part of the show, not the supernatural fluff. Give me a littlefinger/varys convo over a dragon fight any day.

@connorblaze - i really hope Varys and Littlefinger meet one more time before the end.

@Ryguy88 - Theres a huge thread on reddit about this. Basically he's a greenseer like Bran and was waiting for them to come. When Bran warged into a raven earlier this season, the NK is standing on the exact spot Jon and crew were on the ice lake. He had the entire thing planned.

@Himura - thanks for this, I had no idea. I always go back and rewatch episodes halfway through through the season. The halfway point was very many episodes this year so I haven't done so. The writers of the show have been great on several levels for years now. I like going back and seeing things I overlooked initially become obvious foreshadowing. Then there are people like you who have a way better eye and memory, afternall, all media I consume is just fodder for my marijuana addiction

@FishyZombie - I think they were trying to show the arrogance of the Night King. He's letting them know there is nothing you can do to beat me. And basically he can kill them whenever he chooses. I think he will too. I believe this whole story is the the telling of the end of Westeros, the 7 kingdoms, the Iron Throne, all of it. I think they will kill the the Night King, but the last winter will never end. It's going to claim that whole continent.
