after the battle last week, i really don't see how its possible for team wildling to ever get across the wall and do damage. i mean they can get a few people here n there over, but the whole of the army is stuck on the north of the wall. unless i wasn't really paying attention, it seems the tunnel is the only formidable way to get a large amount of them through??? n jon already has the solution for that, which was to freeze it shut, but its too late for that now. no way in hell all them dudes is climbing, although i would love to see that scythe takin out large amounts of wildlings at once :whew: plus they're at a disadvantage being below the nights watch. thinkin about it more, im now realizing that their plan was probably to take over castle black and let the other side through. makes sense now
That makes the most sense.


The sheer number of wildlings is what has me :lupe: theres so many of em, and the nights watch took some casualties too.

Due to the sheer scale of the production with the massive cast and multiple units location filming in several countries, the producers of HBO's "Game of Thrones" have previously indicated that there simply isn't the time (or money) to do more than ten episodes a season - not without more cash and longer delays between airings.

On the eve of the show's fourth season finale, author George R. R. Martin has expressed a feeling quite a few fans have - that ten episodes feels a bit slight. He tells The New York Times:

"I wish we had more episodes. I'd love to have 13 episodes. With 13 episodes, we could include smaller scenes that we had to cut, scenes that make the story deeper and richer."

Martin however, who has background working on television, also understands the economics. "Battles are expensive" he says, and further episodes wouldn't necessarily improve the show - at ten episodes the series is forced to be incredibly lean and tightly paced.

:ohhh: I'm currently reading Book 1 & I wonder the same thing. Catelyn is straight-up abusive to Jon Snow and it looks like Sansa follows in her footsteps by looking down at Jon & only acknowledging him as her b*stard half-brother.

For the most part Robb, Arya, Bran, & RIckon acknowledge Jon Snow as their brother without using qualifiers like b*stard & half-brother.
I hate how she treated Jon especially when Jon was gonna say goodbye to Bran before he left to the nights watch smh

100k minus what the lost day 1 vs 102 minus the loss they took

i mean it's one gate.. ripped up by a giant and the inner gate with a big ass hole through it

the issue is, mance thinks they have 1k men there, which if he knew they actually have like 70-80 left, he'd just charge the gate with 100k men

i actually watched the trilogy a couple years ago. i was cynical, but it was pretty good. viggo mortensen's character is pretty cool. so is the archer elf. i forgot their names, i think im gonna give it another watch.
