Finally they're here. Easily the best episode so far.

Dragons is my guess.
Awesome stuff, finally winter has come. Though I suspect it may take one whole season to cross that river.
That's where the budget went, then.
Kick ass episode...those white walkers are fecking cool looking as well as the giants....is he going to turn as well? He didnt look all to well walking into the water....I guess Dragonglass isnt the only thing that can kill a WW.
Is the giant going to just walk back? I was wondering the whole time how he was going to fit in one of the boats.
The look on Jon and the white walkers face when they hit their swords together was great.

Best episode this season.
Anyone else think of World War Z when the Wight's were scaling the wall just like the wall in Tel Aviv.
If anyone mentions legend, Jon Snow's name must be spoken after -- warrior.

Also, what was up with Jon's sword. Is it valyrian steel?
The second that woman put her kids on the boat and told them she'd be following , I knew shit was about to go down. I was expecting Jon Snow to get killed to be honest, so I'm glad that didn't happen. It'll probably be next season before we see the White Walkers again, though. Hopefully the Stannis/Bolton showdown will be just as epic as tonight's. That's clearly what the season has been building towards.
The Lannisters have wildfire. Danerys has dragons. Stannis has dragon glass. Jon Snow has the Wildlings. I think I can see the way the latter seasons might go.
Also, Peter Dinklage's accent cracked a few times this episode. It's usually not too bad. Aiden Gillen must be rubbing off on him.

Wonder what Ramsey is going to do with "20 good men"?
Tyrion gets Mormont thrown out. Harsh after he saved his life.
Cersei, how the mighty have fallen. Even though she's a massive bitch, I want to see her get revenge on the Sparrow nun and Qyburn's "The work continues" makes me think she will.

Holy feck, we wanted action, we wanted things to get better and they did. They always do with the ante penultimate episode do they not ?
I actually felt sorry for Cersei when she was licking water off the ground, her pride is too great for her to admit her sins
That was epic, i didn't see it coming, winter is finally here!
That was so fecking good.
Yeah, Mormont gave it to him.
What a rubbish episode... blah blah blah
Somehow I doubt it was the same fight choreographer as the Dorne scenes.
Yeah it is. Mormont gave it to him way back when Jon saved his life from the zombie things in Castle Black.
What an episode. Great step up for a great series to date. The battle all the better for coming out of nowhere.
Surprised that Wildling woman died, thought she was going to become a new ally for Snow. I'm going to have to watch this episode again! 
Longclaw. It was supposed to be Jorahs but he disgraced himself so Jeor gave it to Jon. Didnt you see that episode?
Brilliant episode, just what this series needed. Also if the white walkers can't cross water then maybe they should have built a moat in front of the wall too.
Oh and the sparrows are actually making me feel sympathy for Cersei. I really hope see manages to escape and just slaughter them all.

When he was raising his hands at the end, I really thought he was going to start turning the water into ice!

They both looked to the side and I thought he was going to summon a wave or something to attack the boats.
Can the zombie walkers not swim?
This isn't Pirates of the Caribbean.
I was thinking more Lord of the Rings wrt the walkers not being able to swim.
Those were ghosts mate.
Great episode!
Yeah, I thought he was summoning a wave to capsize the boat or something. Glad he at least doesn't have that power, as it would be far too easy.
the speed they were rowing in contrast to how far they were from the shore at the end made even less sense than the runway in Fast and Furious 6.
Wonder if Gendry took off with one of those boats.
Opening scene next week, Gendry helping the giant into his boat.

I thought he was doing the Wenger pose at OT
Fook me what an episode I hope to the many faced God that giant survived, what a badass. Goes to show that having so many teams work on the show can be good and bad, juxtapose the choreography to the Dorne scene and it's night and day.

The boat is moving along, nobody is rowing and they start like 10 feet from the wharf!
Fook me what an episode
I think the problem with Dorne was the relative athletic capability of the actresses involved. That could be a problem with not getting the proper stunt women involved though. Even Jason Bournesque shake the camera around and cut frames to make Matt Damon appear to be athletic would have worked I think ;p
Who would row in that scenario. I'd be in complete shock watching them all rise from the dead.
Winter took long enough to come but when it did ...
