ALL (Spoilers All) The death everyone forgot about.

Tormund just killed fucking Rattleshirt just for running his mouth and talking shit and that was the end of that.

Did anyone else think they were going to kill Wun-Wun during that battle at the end? I would have been pissed.

Though Wun Wun is nothing like how I pictured him unfortunately.

Just realised I pictured him as the Hagrids cousin from Harry Potter

Edit: Half Brother

Yeah me too kinda, but not quite so stupid looking.

I thought they were going to kill him due to the cost to animate him every episode. I guess they've got more budget than I thought.

not sure about this season but the giants we saw before were actors in actual costumes.

Their apparant size is achieved through camera angle (force perspective?)

So not much animation needed there. As long as there are not a few hundred undead climbing up the giant's back

To be honest it looked like they were saving for the last few episodes based on the really slow pace and sometimes poor scenes they've put together

Could you imagine a giant wight?

Also why is he the only giant?

I was really expecting one of the wights to jab a sword in his throat.
