<p>Actually, the theory that I like the most about Arya goes like this...</p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:Metrophobic, sans-serif, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">5: Arya is left handed. "Arya" wasn't</span></p>

<p> </p>
<p>It's not a bad theory but seriously, what kind of muppet can't underarm throw an object a few feet with their wrong hand? I don't think that proves "handedness".</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think I'd prefer it if Arya had padding and just faked the blood.</p>
<p>If Jaqen has access to such magic that he can become Arya without her face and change his stature etc then what is even the point of the faces? Dumb.</p> -

<p>I'm confused as to the extent of his "magic".....I can buy the face thing but although he's not the Hound or the mountain most blokes are bigger than teenage girls so I'm very skeptical about him being the one with her face on too. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Either way I'm hoping his tiresome characters days are numbered.</p> -
Yeah, I thought he was an awesome character to start with, assassinating fluffybunnys at will, but this faceless god stuff has become a bit of a bore.
-
<p>yeah they seem all powerful with the ability to change faces with ease...why are they not ruling this world? Surely they could get in on the 'Game' of Thrones action, I mean plenty of dead kings faces they could have!</p>

<p>Yep, it's amazing how this series can turn awesome characters completely boring and annoying. </p> -
<p>Shame they cant make the High Sparrow exciting and awesome with the amount of screentime he gets!</p>

<p>He's not even interesting enough to truly hate like Ramsay is.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Bronn and the Hound both breathed much needed life into this season though.</p> -
<p>I find him just as loathsome as Bolton. The Sparrow is just such a pompous ass hole.. whilst verbosely telling everyone what to do.</p>
-
<p>So Arya turned her flesh wound into badass advantage and dealt to the waif. Am I imagining it or was the entire wounding thing just a way to suck the waif into an ambush since she had the needle secreted away under a mattress? If so how did she manage to get herself stabbed in the first place in exactly the way that avoided any serious injury? Very odd.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Hound got some retribution in. "Do you really want that to be your last words? You're shit at dying". Love the Hound.</p> -
Disappointing episode tbh<br>
Where was the blackfish's glorious death?<br>
Where was the fight to the death Arya v The Waif?<br>
Even the hounds part ended meekly<br>
Great to see the mountain tear 1 head off, but only 1?<br>
No trial by combat tho? ( obviously a 'fiery' outcome may happen instead) but come on.. The way Thomo deflated his mum with the Royal proclamation or what ever the fuck you call it pretty much summed up the whole episode.<br>
To put tonight's episode in perspective, this time last year we sat through 'Hardhome' -
Fuck this show and the hacks who make it. What a joke.
-
More hound would be good, him and his bro,are gonna have an interesting reunion...<br><br>
Yeah the whole Arya thing was odd, they are wasting a lot of time chilling with Tyrion, Grey Worm and Misshottie! <br><br>
Tommen is now annoying me too, sure Margery is playing him, but with it all related to the HS....FFS kill him already! <br><br>
Knew Ed Muir was gonna puss out, given the actor plays him is a twisted coward in other roles too, such a weak scene really. <br><br>
So Sansas letter was to the Blackfish, or was it just one of her letters? Yeah Blackfishs death was pretty shit, well actually, we don't know cos we just heard some guy say he was dead. -
<p>Why did they waste minutes telling each other jokes?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The series has gone way to quiet and boring the last couple of episodes. Pretty average season so far TBH</p> -
So to recap<br>
No twist with Arya v the waif, about 1000 internet theories out the door. Just a bizarre plot in the end. Sloppy.<br>
No Clegane bowl and likely no Mountain doing his thing, great to see one awesome attack but will that be it?!?<br>
The dreaded episode 9 better be fucking awesome, and have some sort of mind blowing/twist moment or moments -
<p>the way it started last night I thought we were in for a cracker....</p>
-
<p>The start was good, the end with Arya saying she's heading home was good... all else pretty much sucked with the exception of anytime Bronn and the Hound were on screen.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Probably the most disappointing episode all season and likely for the entire series.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And for the much vaunted "Blackfish" to go out like that... fuck that was weak and really pissed me off!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>All through the books the Blackfish is one of the fabled background characters who has influcence on things without being a main character. GRRM had him survive the Red Wedding for some significant plot device yet he get's written out of the series in such a pathetic manner.</p> -
<p>Oh yeah, and why the fuck would Dany get off Drogon to let him fly away when her city is under attack by wooden boats.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ahhh... Drogon is a dragon remember Dany and could fly over the boast spewing fire and take out the armarda attacking Mereen.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What also sucks is that the whole Bran, Coldhands and Meera which was built up in the first half of the season has come to a screetching halt just when it was getting interesting.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Damn the writting is really letting down this series but I guess you have to blame GRRM for not finishing the next book to give them more material to work with.</p> -
Was anybody else reminded of that T1000 from Terminator 2 when the Waif started charging after Ayra? Fark that was ridiculous.
