One of the finest episodes of GOT. This episode just raised the expectation. Previous 3 episodes keep cersei ahead but mother of dragon took one episode to make it equal or go ahead. This episode surely a good execution of story line. Let's see what happens to the next episode. Expecting more from episode 5.
Easily just as great as the Battle of the Bastards and The Winds of Winter. Action packed from the beginning to the end. It will be hard for the following episodes to compare to this one. If they are remotely close or better, we are in full a ride for the rest of the season. Can't wait till the next episode, to see how this is going to play out. The spoils of war is only 50 minutes, what are the hour + episodes are going to bring? 10/10 easily
A tremendous episode! It features a rather interesting and rather intimate moment between Jon and Daenerys. An unexpected and quite entertaining action sequence also occurs between Arya and Brienne. And Jon Snow encounters still another familiar face.
But this episode will mostly be remembered for the simply amazing battle at the end.
The spectacular and horrific battle sequence had me on the edge of my seat. Never have so many of our favorite characters been placed in so much peril-- including the dragon. The epic battle scene was both astonishingly beautiful and shocking as soldiers on both sides fall victim to the cruelty of war from the ground and from the air.
Ironically, in an earlier conversation, Bronn discusses the myth of the 'glory' of war. Unfortunately,his point is suddenly illustrated when he and Jaime suddenly find themselves enveloped in an absolutely terrifying battle which will probably psychologically scar these characters for life-- if they survive:-)

Starting off quietly with some nice references and reunions, this episode literally explodes. Even watching it again later, knowing everything that will happen, it's got me sitting on the edge of my chair.
I knew Game of Thrones was good, and I slowly became a fan recently, but I was reserved in how much of a fan I was...until tonight. I now officially love the show. Anyone who has not seen it yet and who are only watching shows like the Walking Dead are missing out. This is the Walking Dead on steroids and much much better. It's a great show.
This is the moment so many have waited for for years. Let's hope they can keep them coming like this.

- TriviaJerome Flynn (Bronn) stated after the episode aired, "I've been a little unpopular, I have to say. My postman won't speak to me because I shot the dragon."
- GoofsWhen Jaime is knocked into the sea, it's only into the first couple of yards of a gentle sloping shore. The water would barely have covered his face, let alone caused him to sink several fathoms.
