Can someone do some kind of analysis on that raven's flight path (the one Bran was warged into in the last episode) to see how far away the Night's King is now?

That was one thing that made my eyes roll. He can warg into any creature anywhere so why the hell did he randomly pick a flock of ravens that far away when there's probably some wolf or mouse or gull or something right next/above the Night King. Obvs for scenic cutscene and stuff but yeah. Also, those ravens were flying fast as crap and higher than RL ones would.

maybe he can only see the past, in which case he could check out where they were 5 and 15 minutes ago use linear interpolation to get a pretty good estimate of where they are right now.

what if the ravens that bran warged into were actually aria faceless manning into the ravens so she could fly above the white walkers so she could poop on the zombies then take off her beak as she flies away and laughs at them just to piss them off. :lol:

the white walkers got double starked

if you told me when i finished reading book 5 that we'd have an expedition to kill a WW with these characters:

jon
hound
beric
thoros
tormund
gendry (!)  :gocho:
jorah

i would have been pretty excited about all those frayed storylines coming together. but then again i'm a fan of this series so i generally like it.

it's such a stupid concept, what's to get excited about?  and they're not going on an expedition to kill one

It is a pretty crazy group. About the only way it could be more WTF-ly great is if somehow Bronn was there too
