Season 6, Episode 9 "Battle of the Bastards" Discussion Thread

[Slick]

Thank you Sansa.

 

[squeekness]

Yeah, you better run!

 

[Slick]

Kill him.

 

[Slick]

Eat up boy's.

 

[squeekness]

Tastes like chicken!

 

[Slick]

One of the best episodes of the season and the series.

 

[Marvolo]

God, that was so satisfying! This is an episode the viewers really needed after so much misery for so long.

Agreed. Such a great payoff.

 

[squeekness]

Fitting end to a proper villian.

 

[Marvolo]

D&D really need to consider letting Miguel Sapochnik direct all the big episodes from now on. Hell, let him direct the rest of the show. The guy is a ****ing master. Not just at battles. He ****ing nails everything. Everything from the small dialogue moments to the big carnage.

 

[Boom]

Sansa snapped. Love it.

 

[Victarion]

****ing Tormund chewed Umber's jugular out.

Yeah, this guy did a fantastic job communicating the chaos of the battlefield.

 

[Ezio Auditore]

My God. That was fantastic. I have the same feeling I had after watching the battle of Helm's Deep for the first time.

One of the top 5 episodes of the series. Hands down.

10/10

 

[Reek]

that was pretty incredible.

 

[Marvolo]

Hell, hath no fury like a Stark woman that's been abused and raped.

 

[Primal Slayer]

It was a good and satisfying episode.

Though as far as Danys storyline goes, it seems like they rushed it to get to this point.

 

[Boom]

And [blackout]Tormund lived[/blackout]!

 

[TJByrum]

That cavalry collision was intense! Favorite part of the episode!

This episode was just... incredible!

EDIT: Robb's dead, Rickon's dead, Bran paralyzed. The true Stark line has ended. Sansa and Arya may be Starks, but it's not the same, and their children won't take the Stark name. Jon is a bastard and might not even be Ned's son. I hope Bran can still have kids.

 

[Fist of Khonshu]

Fantastic episode! Best of the season, and maybe the best one overall...I need to think about that...

 

[Reek]

where the **** is ghost though... i mean come on!

 

[Boom]

Man.

Dragons straight wrecking ****
Gruesome medieval battle
Tormund going HAM
Sansa's revenge

I'm sweating. So much glory.

 

[The Big G]

Jon's gunna show everyone that he's got the touch...he's got the power

Was I wrong?


Jon went BEASTMODE

 

[Reek]

Fantastic episode! Best of the season, and maybe the best one overall...I need to think about that...

It felt like a goddamn event. Really ****ing amazing.

 

[Fist of Khonshu]

where the **** is ghost though... i mean come on!

I would have loved it if Ghost leaped onto Ramsay before Jon got there!

 

[TJByrum]

It felt like a goddamn event. Really ****ing amazing.

Yeah this felt above and beyond ANY HBO episode.
