    An intense storm that got born in the best way in this episode

    Stormborn, while not a perfect episode in any way, is a neat continuation from the season premiere. Yes there are some parts of the writing and motivations that aren't as consistent and clear and Euron Greyjoy did come across as poorly written, but there are other things that balanced out what I've stated. It uses strategic discussion perfectly as the characters continue to prepare themselves for war. The story continues to be well-written, the pacing is well done, the directing and editing continues to be solid, Ramon Djawadi continues to shine creating more beautiful music and the characters are still compelling. The moments involving them are also compelling including Daenerys arranging her army in Dragonstone, Arya reuniting with her direwolf Nymeria, and a great action sequence to end the episode. Overall, this is an even solid episode and the best was yet to come in the later episodes. Thumbs up. :)

    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.

    Another solid episode!

    Don't let the bad reviews fool you. 95% of those are coming from salty book purists or fanboys of other shows that are crying because their favorite show will never even come close to the very scale and magnitude of Game of Thrones. The episode was great from start to finish. People complaining about wooden dialogue are again just the salty book purists who have a stick so far up their a** that it literally comes out of their mouth when they talk. These first two episodes have had amazing build up and I cannot wait to see what comes next.

    Great Stuff

    Season 7, episode 2. Daenerys talks to the Red Woman. Tyrion makes battle plans with Daenerys and her allies. Tyrion sends a raven to Winterfell to ask Jon Snow to join them, Jon's allies are unsure of his departure to Dragonstone. Cersei gathers her allies. Arya learns that Jon Snow has returned to Winterfell. Sam risks it all to save Jorah Mormont from the grayscale disease. Euron Greyjoy attacks Yara and Theon's fleet - Theon gets away.

    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.

    • 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.
