Really hated Jon this episode. As everyone has pointed out, he's not the same character since his resurrection. He's overly stubborn and stupid in this episode, and gets Wun Wun and pretty much all of the Free Folk killed. I guess I was the only one hoping he would die a final time in that charge.
Sansa on the other hand was awesome. Loved that smirk when she walked away from Ramsay at the end. She has quickly gone from one of the worst characters to one of my new favorites. I'm looking forward to her reign in Winterfell. [Reply]

Yes. Not happy with how Jon is being portrayed. Apparently he's a complete fucking idiot, though pretty good wielding a sword.
I've been joking lately that the show will be moving to Lifetime next season. JFC. :-) [Reply]
I'm not so sure Sansa has gotten any smarter. Just less naive and more vindictive. Which makes her a lot like her mother, who made some colossal fuck ups. [Reply]

The Unsullied were meant of open land fighting, forming formations of spears and shields. Not ideal for City fighting.
Barristan death was eh..... I wish they would have just killed him "better". [Reply]
So my wife came up with a pretty darn interesting (and potentially awful) theory, which I thought was plausible, and a quick peek on the internet suggests others agree with the possibility.
Maybe someone has mentioned it on here and I missed it, but just in case.
Spoiler!
Sansa is pregnant with Ramsay's child. There are several references that both Sansa and Ramsay made that hint at the possibility.
You people need to cut Jon some slack. He had to try and save his brother. Once he was in the middle of the field, he charged forward to dodge a volley of arrows. Ramsay out-smarted him, but he's not an idiot. [Reply]

Hasn't too much time passed since she was with him? I mean, she's been to the Wall and a number of houses looking for allies, and Theon has made it to Pyke, Braavos, and Mereen. She'd be about ready to pop by now, you'd think, if it were true.

Agreed.
But. Battle of the Bastards is more engaging because we didn't know WTF was going to happen. Yes, it was fantastic, well written and well acted and well produced but there isn't a person on the planet that thought something would happen other than dragons rape faces. [Reply]
Even if Sansa were pregnant, she wouldn't have to carry the child.
It's going to be interesting to see how differently that battle plays in the books. Jon winning is probably the only connection. None of the stuff with tv Sansa will actually happen because she's never with Ramsay. Who i'm so glad I'll never have to see again. He was easily my least favorite thing on the series to date. Although everything involving the faith in King's Landing is getting close. [Reply]
