HOLYYYYYYYYYY SHIT! So GoT has been "fine" for a while, but this was fucking incredible.

I watched Avengers and GoT today, and GoT was 10X better. And I liked the Avengers!

The heroic moments were all done in the sake of emotional impact, rather than just "hero porn"

And my favourite character since the first book, Arya, is the hero of the whole damn battle? Fuck yeah! I almost yelled out loud at that moment.

As for how she got by the others, she has those powers, and was reminded of them by Melisandre. You could even see one of the walker's hair get blown in the breeze, and he looked around.. She was that breeze.

Just amazing, amazing television. Wow!

Also I'm glad the NK stuff is over, and we go back to political drama and fighting between the houses. That is when GoT is at its best by far. If anything the "Winter" stuff is kind of a distraction from the best stuff. The houses, names, banners, all mean something. The NK is just a Bad Guy With an Army of Zombies. They're cool and powerful, but kind of dumb compared to the rest of the characters. Think about Tywin Lanister and what his death meant. What he meant to the Lannisters themselves. Such a great character (and amazing actor)

But I digress. This was a great battle, conclusive, and glad they're moving on from the Zombies. I think it will get REALLY good for the rest of the season.
