Sounds like Orsun is mad that Wun Wun died!
He makes some great points though. A bit over the top but after Hardhome I have no doubt people are feeling the pressure of trying to out do the past which eventually just leads to Michael Bay scenes.
While I agree that Jon and Sansa are both idiots there were some epic parts to Jon's battle, the scenes with Jon dodging charging horses and lancers was pretty insane. My favorite part was the headless rider that fly's by Jon only to be stomped by Wun Wun. PETA should have a field day with that even if the horses aren't real! Jon ends up killing one of his own men in that scene.
The only parts that bugged me was Jon running off and the army allowing itself to be surrounded. I had to keep reminding myself that Jon's army wasn't really an army as much as a mob. This is also what happened at the Battle of Platea as the Greeks surrounded and slaughtered the Persians. I would scream as the Persians for allowing
themselves to be surrounded if I had to watch it as well.
Episodes like last night takes television to a whole new level even if there were some stupid parts to it. You aren't seeing anything else like it that is made for TV. Just put on Marco Polo or Vikings and do a side by side comparison and you tell me which is more epic. At this point Game of Thrones can only be compared to itself.
One of the things they did differently this time was they had two epic fights in one episode. Kind of hard to watch Jon's battle as epic when we just saw three Dragons burning boats.
Unlike Orsun I am completely satisfied with Ramsay's death. Having his jaw eaten was poetic justice. Most importantly Ramsay is dead!
So far season 6 has been very satisfying to me. However that will all change if Danny doesn't get on those damn boats and leave. Please no more Meereen!
