I admit that it's not compelling since they were just passing through the area, but the ocean didn't freeze over after they broke through the wall at Eastwatch-by-the-Sea...

They also didn't instantly refreeze the lake last season when the merry band of brothers went north to capture a walker to bring south, and the implication of the scene was that it naturally froze back over given time because they were in an area where such open water would naturally freeze back over.

If they stood on the shore by the Iron Islands, though, I could see an argument for the sea freezing over and them being able to cross.
No i mean as winter progresses will the sea freeze as this is an unusual winter . I wasn't implying the night king or the walkers could do it . Although who knows.

Quote:Game of Thrones Actor Reveals the Perfectly Acceptable Reason for His 'Creepy Bran Stare'

Actor Isaac Hempstead Wright — better known, perhaps, as Bran Stark or the Three-Eyed Raven on Game of Thrones — dropped by Jimmy Kimmel’s show this week, and he helped clear up some confusion around why his character is constantly staring, creepily and intensely, at the other residents of Winterfell.

“I’m kind of getting good at this sort of intense stare,” Hempstead Wright explained. “But it’s kind of aided by the fact that I’m completely blind when I’m on set. I don’t have my glasses, and I don’t have contact lenses.” He also related an anecdote from filming on the previous season with Sophie Turner, who plays Sansa Stark. “She said to me, ‘Isaac, your stare is like — you’re staring into my soul’ and I was like, ‘I can’t see you!'”

So there we have it: get the Three-Eyed Raven some glasses, and maybe he wouldn’t be so angsty around his family after all.

Sansa



Theon



Arya

Ah, so good.  So many thoughts, too, must get to work though.

Episode 2.

Just another "get together and talk" episode.

The real action begins next episode.

I suppose they could have done away with some 'get together and talk' episodes if they had done the big battle/war first.  There would have been fewer people to engage in conversation.

The talks are needed to further the storyline and to answer some questions that would probably have remained unanswered had the characters died in the first episode.  I also think you will get plenty of action as I doubt the battle(s) will be wrapped up in one episode.

Yeah but it gave us some really good character and some rather substantial character development and some rather grim foreshadowing

I reminded me of that episode of M*A*S*H that was literally just a camera going around "interviewing" each character as though they were just saying hi to their friends and family back home. Nothing at all happened in that episode but it was groundbreaking in the sense that you loved all those characters so much that it was nice just to spend time with them reminiscing.

In this episode I felt like it was the last reprieve, the last night alive, for many of the characters that we have watched and loved for 7 seasons that it was nice to have that last goodbye and seem them experiencing their last good moments together before we lose them and they lose each other.

It was so much more than just another "get together and talk" episode to me, it was a chance to say goodbye.

Also, I was talking to my sister about the next episode and how we're both expecting at least one, very likely more than one, main character to die and we both immediately thought



On the other hand, though,




So here's holding out home that it doesn't happen.

I see that Maisie Williams finally got to do a nude scene.  Great

Really?

I got the impression from what little I've read on social media that she (and the fans) has been wanting to do one for a while.
Dying to live, living to die.
