Maybe. But did you catch his comments when they came back after the vision. It's beautiful under the sea but if you stay there too long you'll drown. Made me think of Patchface.
Yup! I put the promo up on the Oathbreaker thread.
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their peril. It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors. Oscar Wilde.
And this whole "Mountain kills a peasant who tall tales his night with Cersei" felt like another "we're stalling for time" thing. I'm kinda getting sick and tired of them stalling. MOVE THE PLOT!
Lord French Fry is not going to like his daughter going to the dogs.
But I have a hard time seeing him doing anything without support of the Lannisters. And I doubt the Lannisters would care.

Jaime and Tommen get a good scene, the Faith gets a good scene. I miss Margaery, but I can forgive that for the High Sparrow going Honey Badger on Jaime (allow me to borrow that term, if you will).
Not that I don't believe that Ramsay would kill his father--this was handled and foreshadowed much more believably than Dorne does, but I can't help that the parallels are being forced by the show writers at this point: "SEE HOW WE CAN WRITE WELL" seems to be what they're screaming at us with this parallel connection between Ellaria's takeover and Ramsay's takeover.
Also, is Lyanna just growing bigger than her brothers (because girls hit puberty before boys do)--or are they trying to hint that she's older than Ned in this story? They could go either way with that IMO.
Or, they might not have cared about age if they could just get the right actors.

Yes, I did catch that!
Crow's Eye was sort of underwhelming. Drowned God, Patchface, sorry.
Good scene with Cersei and Tommen--Lena Headey manages to get some great reaction out of Tommen's actor. I hope this scene goes in both their acting resumes.
Blood Raven wasn't given much to do in this episode, so I'm not judging him until we get more from him.
Varys and Tyrion are trying to be Crosby and Hope and it's not working so well with that dialogue.
And that scene between them all feels forced--extremely forced, with Peter Dinkledge doing all he can to try and sell it. I feel like someone is off stage somewhere and stage whispering: "Sell it! Sell it! Sell it!"
Okay--Last time I was joking that Davos would end up being Peter.
But I just realized--Jon wakes without his wounds healing.
So, if next episode we see Tormund putting his fingers in Jon's wounds--he'll be "Doubting Tormund?"

Well its hard to be commanding on a wooden in a bridge in the middle of the storm. I liked some of the lines but it was really hard to get read on him in the darkness and rain. Hope he is more impressive at the Kingsmoot.
Damphair was a bit underwhelming as well.
Darkstar will be the next Vulture King.
Craster has 19 daughters and there are 19 castles on the Wall, coincidence I think not!
