Over/under 10 crashes for HBO Now... I expect GO will be unusable for a days

Spoiler: Quick thoughts

The dragon joyride was a surprisingly pointless waste of time - establishing that Jon Snow can ride a dragon was the point - but they wasted how much money on that CGI and how much time in a six season episode to show them flying around? all so that they could go bang by a waterfall? wouldn’t that have been a great opportunity to advance the plot or reinforce the stakes in some way, like fly up and get a scare from the army of the dead or something?

the Hound being mad at Arya for leaving him to die is pretty dumb considering he was begging her to kill him at the time she left

I’m glad that Sansa and Jon decided to have at least one highly sensitive conversation about politics and loyalties in private instead of in front of a room full of people

It makes me laugh that Bran is just constantly sitting out in the cold by himself... even more so if people just forget about him and that’s why he’s always sitting around outside... “hey guys, where’s Bran? Oh shit, did we forget him outside again?”

I’ve been waiting 18 months for that Bran/Jamie face to face.

“I’m waiting for an old friend.”

What a cool twist on the opening credits. Going to have to rewatch that a few times.

That's when I realized that the time travel bug has spread to viewers, because I swear this episode was only about fifteen minutes long.

As soon as the credits rolled, I was like ALREADY AN HOUR?!?! NOOOOOO!

The official GOT account put the opening on YouTube. Interesting shape to that first stop. Whew, 0:54...

Well, that was fun! Just watched it.

Maybe just me, but underwhelmed by first episode. Enough with the reunions and kitchy shit. Oh, and I hope I don't I have to watch more of Jon and Daenerys smiling at each other, enough already.

First episode was merely to set the table and remind everyone what they might have forgotten over the two year gap.. the twists and turns.. the relationships..

My crystal ball prediction.. the dragons sense Jon Snow.. they'll be his

That's fine if they were doing a full season.

Has anyone seen the YouTube vid about Littlefinger being the hero of the story and not actually dead? It's a doozy.
