Many fans complained that the opening scenes were far too blurry, dark and confusing, and there is some truth to that. Finally, the living and the dead clashed for an all-out skirmish that lasted more than 40 minutes, thus beating the Helm’s Deep battle from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers for the lengthiest war portrayed in film or on television. The calm before the storm was portrayed with a chilling darkness and sense of terror. Arya explicitly told Gendry she wanted to know what it was like to “be with” a man before she was potentially killed by White Walkers or Wights or any other member of the Army of the Dead, and you have to admit, it’s pretty great for her that she got that completely natural wish granted.Įpisode 3 - aptly named “The Long Night,” as its running time was 82 minutes for the season’s longest episode - began almost exactly as many hard-core fans had surely imagined: with a lengthy silence and dramatic music to accompany scenes of the living - which included the Unsullied and the Dothraki - lining up for the literal fight of their lives. Although it feels strange to see the series’ youngest main female character - whom we’ve come to love as a loyal girl but also a brave and dangerous assassin - have sex, at least it was completely consensual, unlike her sister Sansa who was raped by Ramsay Bolton for her first time in Season 6. Also, Dany learned of her nephew Jon Snow’s ( Kit Harrington) true identity as Aegon Targaryen and thus the rightful heir to the Iron Throne, and was unsurprisingly shocked beyond belief.ĥ0 CELEBRITIES WHO DIED IN 2018 – TRIBUTE SLIDESHOWĮpisode 2 also saw Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) - who is now 18 years old - lose her virginity to Gendry (Joe Dempsie)! Fans had already begun speculating about this after HBO posted a cryptic tweet about the younger Stark girl in the days leading up to the second episode. Sansa ( Sophie Turner) and Daenerys ( Emilia Clarke) had managed to get along better, although Dany did not explicitly pledge to save the North specifically after the battle against the Dead, even after Sansa asked her point-blank if she would fight for the Starks even after that. When we last left off, practically every living soul in Winterfell - or in the North in general - had braced for the dangerously imminent war against the Dead and their leader, the Night King. Sunday night saw millions of fans tune in to HBO again for the third episode of Game of Thronesfor the long-awaited battle between the living and the Army of the Dead at Winterfell, and wow… the hit series delivered once again.
