Anyone else think the unsullied were the real heroes of this episode? In that chaos and madness their discipline and organisation was incredible 
This is the same Tyrion who studied and read books for hours in Kings Landing to try and find an upper hand way back in Season 2.
Probably been mentioned, but I watched back this:
In the same scene were Mellisandre basically predicts Arya will close eyes, she also tells Gendry he will make kings rise and fall

I cant believe they resurrected Beric 427 times to have him die as a shitty version of Hodor.
I think Arya doing the kill was perfect.
It's too textbook to have it as anyone more obvious in my opinion. Again I do feel the NK story should have been better developed, ie have more interaction with Bran and a bit of an explanation behind his motives. But it's so hard to execute everything without a cost to other arcs, and a risk that they feck it up too. This was a safe and welcome approach to the direction.

Agreed.

By that logic, they would've been still controlled by the children. Instead, NK destroyed what was left of them.
Was Renly a king, though?
sure why not
Was episode 3 meant to be broadcast for radio only as my screen was black throughout?
Yup, just got reading that
So much easily forgotten that ties together
Not Renly. Eboues messing about. But Gendry had the leech scene and was partially responsible for taking out Rob, Joffers and Iron Island Daddy.
Nope.
he served the lord of lights purpose as Mel said. Same with the hound, theon being helped by the drowned god just so he serves his purpose and arya being helped by the faceless god. They all had a purpose.
Jon was raised so arya had a reason to travel north, otherwise she would have gone to kings landing to avenge her family. All the gods (the L of L, the faceless, the drowned, the 7 and the old gods had a hand in this).
Didn't Gendry's blood pretty much take down Joffers, Rob and the Iron islands king? Or at least it was implied it had a hand in them.
This is a really stupid comment
Game of Tropes.
For shame. It used to be so good.

Yep
fecking sad bastards the lot of you moaning. Reeks of Cafe members. United negativity is the start for most of you and then anything that you can moan about ... negativity.
That episode is the most expensive EVER tv show episode, by some distance. The darkness is intentional, it’s a battle at night in a castle ?! If you can’t work out how to turn on different TV modes then more fool you. Brilliant links from previous series and tying up a lot of character stories. Episode 5 is even better. So stop the moaning and enjoy it before it’s gone.

Good light hearted article about the battle

Yes. It was the leech scene and all leeches named died, just in the wrong order.
Episode 5 is better? Have you seen it somehow
Not seen it. Not many have anyway. Just worth the wait
Was hoping episode 4 might throw us back into the thick of it with another battle but they probably need that to set the scene. Still think something is up with Bran.
Did anyone else think Sansa and Tyrion would end up killing themselves as they were making a last tearful goodbye? That scene was really weird.
Yea i thought they'd run out and get killed.
I just re watched it. The only thing annoying me is the nk died in similar fashion to the giant. They should have killed the giant differently.
Im fully expecting some more development im brans story like what he was doing with the ravens
Oh, so it has the most expensive plotholes too, 10/10, I'm convinced. Seriously, what bullshit argument is that. I don't care about the super expensive CGI when the underyling story isn't worth my attention.
Bloody hell, that was hands down the most incredible episode of television I’ve ever seen. How anyone can find faults with that is beyond me. I need a hug after that

Professionals.
You guys need new TV's, I didn't find it too dark at all actually.
I enjoyed this very much. Goosebumps on different occasions. Of course there were some actors with plot armor, but that was to be expected. Fair amount of popular characters died anyways.

The big CGI moments are terrible in the show.
People were moaning about ‘cheaping out’ on the CGI. Hardly.
If you don’t like it, why do you watch it?
Haha that’s a proper response!
