Jon/Ygritte was bad books and show for me Jon Dany is okay but i agree it would have benefitted from more time. Which, obviously they dont have, so im willing to give a pass for this

8.
Some great character moments, but it feels like more of the same from last week.
Jaime knighting Brienne was awesome, and it feels like a big moment for both characters, mainly because Brienne is one of the few knights in the series who actually acts like a knight. Tormund clapping afterwards was pretty cool as well.
Jon, Sam and my boy Dolorous Edd's scene ft. Ghost (at long last) was pretty cool. It also felt like it was truly coming full circle as the Nights Watch/white Walkers was the true focus of the series.
Sam giving his sword to Jorah was a nice little homage to Heir, that I really appreciated.
There were funny scenes, and a few meaningful scenes and I'm not gonna list them all. It just felt like substance was kind of lacking and there were some scenes to fill time.
Other stuff was very minor. The Sansa Dany stuff feels like it could have happened last episode, Bran is still being very elusive. Theon getting from King's Landing to Winterfell faster than the army of the dead... I'm not gonna get into timescale.
My point is, this episode had lot of little character scenes again, and it just feel like more of the same. Not worse, not better. You could merge this and Episode 1 and it wouldn't really lose much of the meaningful scenes.

Aren't you obnoxious I'd suggest bringing something of worth to the discussion instead of weird remarks that try to bring people with different opinions down. Lol. And I think they definitely could've had more scenes between Jon and Daenerys establishing their feelings in Season 7 had they left something else out but well, it's no use complaining about that anymore and probably 8x02 rating thread isn't the place for it.

Haven't been using this board properly in almost two years and you just used an opportunity to just "chide" me for some stuff said on internet like three or four years ago instead of actually contributing to the discussion we others were having about a fictional relationship? Tells enough about you tbh

Not going to lie, neither of you should be on any kind of high horse against the other so can y'all just wrap it? Thanks.

Criticism of storylines and characters is allowed, just know that you will have people who interpret things differently and from both sides of the argument.
Edit: And I realize that's a "No Shit, Al" response, but the discussions of each episode so far here have probably been more mild and laid back compared to other places on the Internet.

Of course! In my opinion it just feels so out of character for both characters. It feels more like Disney love stories than other brilliant Thrones relationships. It might be just a minor pacing problem for me. It doesn't feel natural. I don't want to go into much of detail as we have a specific thread for this but I don't recall incest in such fashion in Disney movies. I know it's a bit different but me and my gf fell in love in a matter of weeks. Love is a curious thing, often it doesn't make sense and yet it happens. Previously GoT had more time and for some, it might have felt more organic. I understand your sentiment.

When it comes to love in stories, you just buy it or not. Love is not rational feeling, so I don't think we can objectively say anything.
Some people fuck the day they meet, and later they have long and strong relationship. Or it can take years. Life is strange.
