Probably the ship everyone minus Danny took to get there in the first place, and I highly doubt Euron attacks it with two giant fucking dragons swooping around it. Clearly she wanted to be with Jon.

Agreed, but honestly, you can't really expect much more from D&D or HBO IMO. They've got contracts with actors who have publicly stated they are done with the show. They've got GRRM who keeps moving the goalposts on how to end the story, and likely has some contractual control still over it. They're probably trying to fit 4 or 5 more seasons into 1 (albeit stretched over two years).

I too would love to see some of those communications between HBO and GRRM.

That last episode was pretty bad...not quite Walking Dead bad...but pretty close.

They were there for at least a day. They all woke up to the Wights surrounding them. A throwaway line about how they're running out of supplies would have done them quite a bit of good.

Sanderson on reddit said he'd never finish ASOIAF for Martin.

I would rather have one bad mother fucker who just wins.

The Nerd Soup review of the most recent episode made a good point about the writing. All these long journeys that are occurring at warp speed would have contained multiple chapters of the journey in the books from perhaps different sources.

Those chapters may not have been critical to the overall end game but they were critical to the depth and character development that makes the show so immersive. If chapters like those existed now the show could at least have some reference for how the characters would interact or perhaps if there was some good dialogue or situations that could be included and shown on the show. But instead, without any of this source information they were used to, they elect to skip all of these subtle moments all together and only focus on meeting certain plot requirements and it is really causing them to create too many plot holes.

And there you go. It's why it's likely up to GRRM as to whether the book series ever reaches a finish line.

The not bringing horses thing north of the wall doesn't really bother me. The terrain can be assumed to not be favorable to horses and they would just be more mouths to feed. After all the wildlings never had horses did they? I assume because it's just too mountainous and lacking vegetation and that doesn't favor horses very well.

That said, a simple meeting about planning the quest could have included a few lines about bringing or not bringing horses and the reasons they elected not to. Another example of moving too fast and not taking care to create a logical story.

You guys are just completely nitpicking now it's getting outrageous

I get a kick out of people who watch something just to find something to complain about.

You mean the hole in the ice that the Night King or Wights could have refrozen solid with a gesture?

Benjen's horse seemed to do just fine north of the Wall

And every ranger sent out from the night's watch was on horseback.
But yeah.
Run Gendry, run.
