Featured reviews
"Hardhome" is probably the best episode of "Game of Thrones" so far with an unforgettable and exciting battle. All the segments are important and interesting but the fight between the Wildlings and the Night's Watch against the wights and the White Walkers is the best sequence ever. My vote is ten.
Title (Brazil): Hardhome
I watch every season of game of thrones without watching any trailers or spoilers so this episode just shocked me. The last 20-25minuttes are just so epic and amazing that i cant find any word to describe it.
Thank u so much David Benihoff and D.B weiss for giving us this amazing show.
Episode 7 was good, not great, but good. There were some plot developments as usual, plot moves forward, but nothing that good. Sure, costumer, set design, acting is at their best, but something was missing.
Episode 8 gave us FINALLY that missing piece. WOW was the first word that came to my mind after witnessing this piece of art. Won't going to spoil anything, but this is hands down the best episode of season 5, and one of the very best of the entire show - it is THAT good. There were many great written exchanges in this episode, very strong acting us usual, and what an outcome. Sure, it's not the outcome yet, but what a spectacular, superbly directed, shoot sequence at the end. Kudos to all involved, terrific sequence, probably to big to wittiness it on a small screen - what other shows do something like that?
Overall, Episode 7 gets 8/10, and Episode 8 pure 10/10. "I think we are fxxxed" - that is probably was the first thought that came to John Snow's mind at the very end of this sequence.

- TriviaThis episode required a heavy budget for CGI, and it got to the point where the visual effects crew had to ask HBO for more money.
- GoofsIn the last scenes, Wun Wun walks towards the sea, heading to the ship, but he disappears right after that. As the cameras feature the boat moving towards the ship, Wun Wun can't be seen anywhere on the water. He simply vanishes.
- Quotes
Tyrion Lannister: When I was a young man I heard a story about a baby born during the worst storm in living memory. She had no wealth, no lands, no army, only a name and a handful of supporters, most of whom probably thought they could use that name to benefit themselves. They kept her alive, moving her from place to place, often hours ahead of the men who had been sent to kill her. She was eventually sold off to some warlord on the edge of the world and that appeared to be that. And then a few years later the most well informed person I knew told me that this girl without wealth, lands, or armies had somehow acquired all three in a very short span of time, along with three dragons. He thought she was our best, last chance to build a better world. I thought you were worth meeting at the very least.
