I was underwhelmed by the first episode considering they took almost 2 years to make 6 episodes... Thoughts?

Had to view it a second time, and for me definitely a boring -set the scene opener- but some interesting overdue moments. I enjoyed Brans line “I’m waiting for an old friend”. Though Bran rushes others to commands he loves to sloth about.I thought it was a very solid first episode.
The big reveal to Jon by a very distraught Sam- this set the stage for a rift between Jon and Dany
Arya had her reunions and each seemed to have its own story. The weapon she requests from Gendry was interesting. Also they way she defended Sansa when Jon was going to make fun of her, think that somehow plays out in the Stark family.
Jaime seeing Bran was great ( although man Bran is a buzzkill)
Finally the Night King is marching and leaving notes/warnings
solid start IMO
You think Sansa loves Jon?Had to view it a second time, and for me definitely a boring -set the scene opener- but some interesting overdue moments. I enjoyed Brans line “I’m waiting for an old friend”. Though Bran rushes others to commands he loves to sloth about.
The Sansa loves Snow stuff is too obvious imho and I expect Dany to die soon.
Arya scene with Hound and Gendry was cleverly done. Will she sneak up on Nightking with that weapon?
I hated Sam’s distraught reaction, I didn’t buy it and I felt like Emilia Clarke had a poor episode of acting minus the dragons comment. Maybe in 2 years she forgot the character.
i am Curious if Snow tells Danny in person who his father is or in public to see reaction.
Tyrion looks inept.
Hoping we get a full eisodes worth of the Red Priestesses/red army and why whytes are actually marching soon.
Should be some great action coming
I wonder what the cost to have 3 prostitutes at once was back then? If I ever get my time machine working, there are things I need to know.
I do think Sansa and Snow end up together. Knowing Martin he may kill all Starks but if a couple survives i think it’s themYou think Sansa loves Jon?
I agree that Dany sucks, I hope she turns out to be evil and dies.
I kinda hope the night king is able to speak at some point or they elaborate on their motives.
Definitely the first time I've heard that one. I know the show is okay with incest, but I don't see it.I do think Sansa and Snow end up together. Knowing Martin he may kill all Starks but if a couple survives i think it’s them
Kind of wondering what will happen with Gendry, I don’t expect him to end up on the Iron Throne being Robert’s bastard but they’ve kept his character around for a reason.
Exactly, season 7 was way to fast paced. No major action happened last night but I loved the episode. Thought it was brilliant. When has there ever been this many characters together? Think it was a perfect calm before the storm and odds are it’s the last time you get meaningful dialogue from some of these characters as many will possibly get killed off next week.It actually feels like GoT has slowed down the pace in season 8 after speeding it up in season 7.
Two set-up episodes, but obviously it's going to finally hit the fan next Sunday...
Aren't almost all TV shows and movies like that? If people don't make dumb choices there would be very little drama...I read A LOT of fantasy and I really don't get the GOT hype. I think I made it through the first two seasons but to me, it seemed that all of the characters pick the dumbest option of choices laid out before them, I find it more than annoying.
Interesting observation on the night king and dragon. That would be a nice twist but Bran said he will come so not sure how they accomplish both. I was shocked how many “generals” wyghts now have.Exactly, season 7 was way to fast paced. No major action happened last night but I loved the episode. Thought it was brilliant.

Btw...notice you didn’t see the Night King in the final shot? Mark my word-he ain’t there, him and the ice dragon are headed to Kings Landing.

So which characters get taken out during the battle with the dead? I’m going with:
Grey Worm
Jamie
Brienne
Jorah
The HoundSo which characters get taken out during the battle with the dead? I’m going with:

Can his brother even be killed?I think the Hound ends up killing his brother with that new axe and suspect he survives this battle.
Can his brother even be killed?
Isn't The Mountain a Walker? I thought so.I assumed he had the Dragon Glass axe made for both his brother and the white walkers.
I think the Night King kills mountain and turns him and then Wyght Mountain vs Hound in a few weeks.I assumed he had the Dragon Glass axe made for both his brother and the white walkers.
Never heard the waif thing but it would be cool if they had written it that way to make sense. Why would the Waif go and kill the Freys, etc.? There's no way it's true at this point.I think the Night King kills mountain and turns him and then Wyght Mountain vs Hound in a few weeks.
What I don’t get is the Waif is still Arya rumors. They don’t make sense, the scar theory is weak. The Waif wouldn’t know all these familial relationships or about Gendry or ask for a weapon to kill walkers, or know history of needle, or about Mellisandre and Snow, etc...
Isn't The Mountain a Walker? I thought so.
