    How to be a dragon

    In Essos Daenerys has largely been running her own show. In Westeros she need allies, and an interesting power struggle is now breaking out around her. How should she go about conquering Westeros? "Be a dragon", Lady Oleanna advices. But can you actually be a benevolent dragon?

    House of the real stormborn

    If I compare the previous episode with the previous one, I have to say that this episode is very well arranged and thrilling. Sometimes in this episode we find the identity of the ultimate enemy who has to be his friend. We already know that power makes people monsters, we know it step by step. A frightened person is always a frightened person, he cannot be made brave again even after hundreds of attempts. Sometimes the family becomes the enemy of the family. We will see in this episode how love can change a person or how fear can instill love in a brave person. We will see the people in whom there is no such thing as humanity. In this episode we will see the old enemy trying to deceive, forgetting all the enmity and trying to extend the hand of friendship again. Moreover, I got to see some amazing performances. This episode showed me the proof that the question will move itself away from you if you move the animal away from you. Great writing Great work of the director. All in all a good thriller episode.

    Superb Direction & Character Progression Nicely written Episode

    I could have written this review in valyrian but it would have been hard to find Missandie translating it for you. :)

    It's My First Review Ever & Few Fools who just want to write bad' forced me to write this; I would suggest to ignore the Bullshit Reviews written by so called Fan Boys or Book dumbs, who not only compare things with their dumb-ass visualization but also OVER ANTICIPATE things as they are the directors.

    The Episode was simply a marvel with great direction and scripting, The Show has to move quicker now as considering the fact that it has cut down from 10 to 7 Episodes and Another 6 Episodes in next season, Its Obvious to move things and align the characters for their role. The Creators had to join the missing pieces to set up character progression, keeping an 'On the Edge' phenomenon which the show has maintained so far. It is one of the Greatest Shows Ever on the Television history comparing it to the greatest movies and shows of all time. The Directors and Creators must be in a great pressure to keep things up to the mark and few dipshits ruin things by such idiotic and over anticipated reviews which is as bad and seems like they ran out of toilet paper.

    Talking about the Episode 2 StormBorn the Starting with thunderstorm and heavy rain was precisely superb justifying the title. Regarding the Character Progression, I was amazed to see Sir Jorah is finally on the move, and Sam is playing his role well. Decision taken by Arya for Re-uniting was also a good one and well shown at the right time when things get moving precisely as they got to be.

    Its Obvious for the Clans Unite in order to set alliances for the Great battle, so "Raven-Postal Services have to be quicker. The story is going in right direction and it gives a more edgy feeling episode by episode that viewers are gonna run out of chairs. I really feel great that the Writers and Directors are keeping the Scale High, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are Indeed the best Creators and they have proved it making the GOT a Phenomenon' in the history of Television.

    Episode Rating: 9.9 Character Progression: Tombstone Piledriver" Anticipation Level: Double On the Edge: 11.67 MM away Falling off chair Missandei: HOT Yara Greyjoy: Holy-Sh*t

    Now the Seventh Season Has Begun

    At Dragonstone, Daenerys, Tyrion and Varys discuss a strategy to take Westeros without burning the Seven Kingoms to ashes with their allied Melisandre, Yara Greyjoy, Eliaria and Lady Olenna Tyrell. Tyrion proposes an alliance with Jon Snow to Daenerys and she sends an invitation to him to visit her. In Kings Landing, Cersei tries to gather allied to fight Daenerys and Qyburn shows a powerful weapon to kill dragons he has developed. Meanwhile Jon Snow decides to accept the invitation of Daenerys expecting to convince her to use her dragons and the dragon glass in her land to destroy the White Walkers. Arya learns that Jon Snow is the King of the North and decides to return to Winterfells and has an unexpected encounter. Samwell tries to secretly heal Jorah from the greyscale risking his career. Yara Greyjoy and Eliaria are navigating the Narrow Sea when they are surprisingly attacked by Euron and his fleet.

    "Stormborn" is a great episode of "Game of Thrones" with good segments and surprising conclusion. Now the strategies are discussed by the opponents with their allied and the war is close. Most of the characters have great participation and the viewers will certainly anxiously looking forward to see the sequel. My vote is nine.

    Title (Brail): "Stormborn"

    This is politics at its finest.

    In the same episode that proves why family bonds might not be worth the banners their sigils are printed on, the action-packed finale drives a literal and figurative stake through some of the series' most notable familial connections.

    • Trivia
      Arya tells Nymeria "that's not you" as she and her wolf pack leave, recognizing that Nymeria has found her own life and will never be domesticated again; the line confused some viewers, who thought that Arya believed the wolf wasn't Nymeria. The showrunners stated the line is a reference to Cripples, Bastards, and Broken Things (2011), when Ned Stark stated to Arya that she would one day marry a high lord in a "nice frilly dress" and be the lady of a castle; Arya told him "that's not me," indicating that she'd rather play with swords.

      Sam tries to numb Jorah's pain with rum, even though milk of the poppy is the standard anesthetic in Westeros; Sam should have known since even non-maesters have referred to the substance several times before.
    • Quotes

      [In the crypts of Winterfell]

      Jon Snow: You don't belong down here.

      Petyr 'Littlefinger' Baelish: Forgive me. We haven't ever talked properly. I wanted to remedy that.

      Jon Snow: I have nothing to say to you.

      [Jon turns to leave]

      Petyr 'Littlefinger' Baelish: Not even "thank you"? If it weren't for me you'd have been slaughtered on that battlefield. You have many enemies, my king, but I swear to you, I'm not one of them. I love Sansa... as I loved her mother.

      [Jon grabs Littlefinger by the throat and slams him against the wall]

      Jon Snow: Touch my sister and I'll kill you myself.
