It was revealed(or maybe heavily implied) that his squire(young Jamie look alike Cerci had been shagging) got Robert way too drunk on the boar trip on Cerci's command.

We're at the end of one of the longest summers recorded. Winterfell is under insane snow, the entire invasion of the Walkers rests on the the world being a frozen wasteland for years.
Kings Landing is evacuated/evicerated in multiple visions with snow falling on it's ruble. We know winter is coming, in more than one way.

Ya, im just saying. We have known this for a very, very, very long time that it has become an endearing in-joke amongst the show's fans.

Cut shot to Sam's food with it in frame for an unusual amount of time with the kids eyes staring at it
Good job Sam, you just totally inspired that kid to kill Jon.

Yeah I know right, that shit cracks me up. Funny enough Roose gave Robert the best advice that he constantly ignored. Roose is too pragmatic to fuck with in my opinion. Dude got married to a fat woman just to make some money from of it.

Had to change my avatar to the show's true hero: Wun-Wun.
What's amazing to me is how the show lulls you into thinking how its all talk and bullshit with half-glimpses and scary talk. 4.5 Seasons of, "Winter is coming" *scary hands*. Then you up and get the full view of what they are talking about and its way worse than thought. Yeah, should have listened to Nan.

Hopefully this isn't one of those "book spoiler" things. I like Martell, Lannister and Bolton (Just because they are assholes to a hilarious level when they want to be). Fuck those Frey bastards though. Stannis' sigil looks like a flaming Bulwinkle.

Makes me think things are being set up for the Dragons to save the day.

The make up and CGI department really did an amazing job this episode! The effects outdone a hell of a lot of Hollywood motion pictures!
This is also reason #486 why I'm never having kids.

Been saying the same thing. The only thing i can think of is that its a dark history of the house. Dunno. But yes very strange that Rob trusted Roose.
Yes, the 5 minute clips style works when you have interesting and relevant story lines, but with all the paper thin, pointless, drab stuff that is being currently highlighted, it just doesn't cut it.
The sooner you get rid of one shit, the better, but, no, we're forced to switch between multiple shits for 10 episodes
Maybe some fans will attempt a season re-edit in the future. It would be interesting to see how it turns out.

I was hoping for at least one negative impression about this episode so I could use this.
Well... but here it is.
LOL that's great. I'm pretty sure there was at least one negative. They liked the episode but nitpicked it to shit and overall read as a complaint post. I'd look for it but there have been too many pages since last night.

This is what Game of Thrones is though, apart from Season 4. The big moments are made worth it because of all the set-up that came before. In Season 2, especially, the first 8 episodes were all set-up episodes.

But Roose gave good advice. If Robb had stopped listening to his mother and dick long enough he might still be alive. Roose knew what was going on, there was no way in hell a survivor like Roose was going to go down on Robb's boat.

Did Jon pick up someone else's sword or was that his? Who had a sword made of dragon glass?

That was his sword that the previous Lord Commander gave him. Valyerian Steel.

I can see this getting a lot of use during E3.I was hoping for at least one negative impression about this episode so I could use this.
Well... but here it is.
I feel like dragon glass might be one of the ingredients in making Valyrian steel.
Remember that the Targaryans choose a bunch of islands filled with dragonglass for their "home" lands when they took over Westeros. And now that nobody remembers what it was good for nobody wants the islands (Stannis was super bitter his brother gave him the isles to rule instead of the Baratheon place).
Stannis did mention that his islands were full of dragonglass a few episodes ago.

Is Valyrian steel rare in Westoros?
I hope the Whitewalkers play an integral role in the show and aren't taken out quickly by the dragons.

Invaluably rare.
The other one went to Joffrey right? Anyone know where it is?

That reminds me, what happened to Joffrey's Valyrian sword? Can't remember if they mentioned it after he died.

Yea, this is what I think too.
Dragon Glass from what I can tell is Obsidian, which is made from volcanoes. My guess is when Valyerian Steel is made it's made using volcanic metal and maybe smelted using some type of lava or some shit.
Smelting obsidian with steel is fucking insanely hard and the art of doing it has been lost after the Doom, so any shot of smelting new steel is pretty much gone.
Now even though Valyerian Steel is most likely impossible to create now, Dragon Glass itself is going to be plentiful at Old Valyeria and Dragonstone.
I'm pretty sure that sword is with Tommen now. I highly doubt one of the last Valyerian blades is going to get buried with that fucking piece of shit king. Valyerian steel is almost always handed down.
This, absolutely this.
One of the best mass-battle scenes I've ever watched, period, let alone probably the most epic thing I've seen on a TV show. Actually felt wasted watching on a 42" TV.
Great episode, and made the rest of the season worth the wait for it!
