I don't know if it's cause I'm so late to got. I don't know if it's cause I haven't gone through seasons 3&4 yet.

Hodor dying / finding out why he can only say Hodor didn't get me in the feels like seemingly everyone else. My sister bawled her eyes out, got annoyed when I said I'm leaving want to come hold the door. That YouTube vid, reactions here. I think I'm missing something lol.

Also not getting the Sansa love. Can't stand her. I'm all about that Arya, Tyrion, Jon Snow life.

Is it because Sophie Turner is a terrible actress? I think that's it for me. Every one of her scenes comes off entirely unconvincing and dull.
Just the character. Season one and two every time she popped up I wanted to skip her. Here I am in season 6 and still don't care what she's doing or saying. I just want her to get killed off at some point.

Those other things have an evolutionary grounding in the mythos. Willis turning into Hodor before Bran travels back is a logical fallacy. It means time is circular and my biggest issue with it is its as crappy a plot device as it was all a dream.
Why is time circular? If anything it's purely linear. Im struggling to see the critique of this view point. Can you explain?

The character is fine, in fact she is developing a shitload right now.

Sansa started bad, when reading the books (only on book 3 atm) i hate her story with a passion, but ever since she got to the vale, I've really enjoyed her.

Arya is going slow atm, but theres so much potential it keeps me intrigued (same as Bran)

Tyrion has gone from my favourite to the one i cant give a **** about as he's boring me atm.

Jon has almost always bored me but he's such a main key I build the motivation to follow him.

I don't understand the end.

If the only reason Hodor had that seizure was because Bran in the present, decided to warg into him then why is he the way he is before this episode?

Edit: Where are Jon and Sansa going? I understand Brienne has gone to the Riverlands.

Linear would be Willis lives his normal life, Bran travels back in time and changes the past and then Willis turns into Hodor in the present or it splits off a different timeline. Bran needs Hodor to get to the tree > creates Hodor because he's at the tree. If Bran executed it like it appeared we either aren't witnessing the original timeline like the Matrix or a circular Paradox.

It could be explained away easily enough, say the Three Eyed Raven saw Bran die earlier and manufactured events to get him there and Bran was simply witnessing Hodor change in the past rather than being the catalyst.

Did like the revelation that the tree looking people's had created the white walkers to fight the men.
Yep. The White Walkers where created by The Children to fight against the Wildlings and those south of the wall. However, I don't think things went to plan as the WW have now taken over and are killing everyone.

According to some online readings, The Children are keeping a secret, and that's why they needed an army (White Walkers), to help protect the secret. I still don't know what this secret might be.

Oh and **** you Sixpence for your breakfast time leak post that screamed GOOD GUY DIES IN THIS EPISODE!. Removed any surprise as the final minutes ticked down :thumbsdown::rolleyes:
I gave away nothing. Stop acting like a spoilt brat and realise that people in other parts of the world may have seen it before you. This isn't an exclusively Australian-resident forum! If it bothers you that much, don't read the ******* thread in the morning!

You watched a leaked copy, bright spark. Surely that it wasn't Monday in England clicked with you. "Oooo da feels" is a giveaway someone's carked it.

I'm quite aware of how I watched it! Point still stands. You may not be the first to have watched it. Is it really that hard not to read a forum for a few hours?

And if that gives something away for you, then you clearly haven't been paying attention! Someone dies every ******* episode! Here's a spoiler for next week, some one you like dies. Rinse and repeat.
