It's so pervasive I just assumed.

man book 2 is the only one I've really read and the thing I was looking forward to most was the house of the undying and it got like six minutes of screen time and left out most of the creepy vignettes that I was hoping for.

yeah, the house of the undying was definitely a bit anticlimactic after all the buildup. did like the white walkers, though. good episode, overall.
i'm wondering about the size of winterfell these days. i originally got the idea that it was a pretty substantial settlement, but ever since, it's seemed like a courtyard or two and a couple buildings. it's seemed especially tiny in the last few episodes. then when the kids were leaving, it looked MASSIVE, like it would house thousands. how could a city that big possibly be held by 20 men, even with its army away?

and who the hell burned it? where are the 500 northmen?

SEASON 3 AWAITS
― spextor vs bextor (contenderizer), Monday, 4 June 2012 05:52 (twelve years ago) link
yeah... i mean the northern soldiers were under orders to let any of theon's soldiers go free if they surrendered, and they had his body with them, so it's not hard to imagine them getting away easily. otoh, if they burned the city before leaving, you'd think that would complicate things. idk.
― J0rdan S., Monday, 4 June 2012 05:53 (twelve years ago) link
That's a cliffhanger, apparently. I both appreciate how they dealt with it but am also understanding that it's a bit confusing.
I don't know anything about the House of the Undying in the books, but I thought it was great here. The portent of the Red Keep broken down and overrun with the Winter, the walk north of the Wall. And the fact that, somehow magically, Dany got a genuinely moving scene with Drogo that gave her character something to achieve this season other than WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS. Also the Dragons kicking ass was awesome and fuiud.
― Fas Ro Duh (Gukbe), Monday, 4 June 2012 06:27 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, while that House of the Undying scene didn't meet my expectations based on the book, I thought it was really enjoyable and made up for her mediocre shitshow all season.

And by shitshow, I just mean that until last night hers was easily the least enjoyable plotline and I had almost dreaded her scenes. But, man, that was a pretty sweet payoff.

Locking Ducksauce and Hollyoaks girl in the vault was cold.
Thought the White Walkers looked amazing.
Lots of moving scenes this episode - Luwin dying, Dany and Drogo, Tyrion and Shae.
I wonder if people who haven't read the books entirely got what was going on under the surface of Jon and Qhorin's fight.

I was hoping for a glimpse of mad king Aerys at least.

yeah that was kind of awkwardly handled in that qhorin's line that explains his plan was way back in episode 8

ya... from his highest point to his lowest in 2 eps. kind of crappy of his father to, essentially, take the credit for Tyrion's work and then turn his back on him.

I always assumed that Martin intended him as a riff on Samwise.

its a castle, not a city

xp samwise is tolkein's ideal of a salt of the earth type who loves his master and knows his place. samwell is the effeminate son of a powerful noble. but they are both fat and short tho.
― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 4 June 2012 19:32 (twelve years ago) link
okay, but in the last ep it was shown to be enormous. like the size of a small walled city. aren't there quite a few people living within those walls? like, not just the royal family and their staff, but a settlement of sorts? this is the impression i've gotten, anyway...
