The most dangerous man who currently is in hostile territory surrounded by people who'd like to kill him…and that includes the Vale knights. Lord Royce would take first dibs.

Harrenhall's got a lot of rich lands around it, however. Dragonstone is basically a rock in the sea. No much there as far as resources, which is a major reason Stannis considered it a slap in the face when Robert gave it to him.

Yeah, I know in the books Loras leads an assault on Dragonstone and gets badly wounded taking it. But here? Dany just strolls in like she's house-hunting.

And there was much rejoicing…

That was odd they didn't do that. I mean, given how Winterfell's sigils flipped appropriately, you'd think they'd do the same for King's Landing.

He's dead this season. Probably not until the finale but he meets his end. If you want to make it clear that the petty squabbles over the throne are over and the final battle for survival is on, nothing does it like killing the guy who epitomizes those petty squabbles.

"Leave a wolf alive and the sheep are never safe."

I'm wondering, did Stannis leave no one to guard the place when he went to the Wall or did those he left desert when they heard he'd been killed? Place was a ghost town until Danny showed up.

Plus we got David Bradley one last time.

Basically: "Look at me. Now sit down and shut the fuck up, old man."

But Jorah may need that!

Sand Snakes.

Plus, much of the time it's either been at night or in shadows since the place is dark by nature. Nice to see it full scale during the daytime.

More likely she brings him her daughter's murderers. Doesn't look good for the Sand Snakes.

"Tell them the North remembers. Tell them winter came for House Frey."

He looks hilarious in it. Paisley shirt, trucker's hat, chowing on a sandwich as slovenly as possible.

2 is lesser, but it has its moments. I believe that unadapted story was called "Pinfall" and was about an undead bowling team or something. ("Cat From Hell," of course, ended up as part of the "Tales From the Darkside" movie.)

I CAN HOLD MY BREATH FOR A LOOOOOOONG TIME!

Knights on motorcycles…do we really need to say anything else to get you to see it? (Also Tom Savini as one of those bike riding knights.)

Definitely. It basically IS an EC comic brought to life, right down to the artwork between stories. It's just flat out fun.
