The episode was a 9/10.
The battle sequence was breathtaking. Even though I'm all team Cersei, the way the flames accompanied the battle was magnificent.

The other scenes were also largely entertaining, especially Winterfell with Arya.
I do have to say though, Bran is a piece of shit. Meera should have slapped the hell out of that entitled God complex dipshit.

I have to disagree with you on Bran. 

I hated him and couldn't understand why he was this cold until this episode, the explanation he provided shifted my perspective completely, one of the best moments of the entire show. 

Just like losing memories change the personality of people with dementia or alzheimer's to the point in which we can't recognize them anymore, adding memories has a similar effect. After all, what are we but the sum of our memories? Apply the same concept to Bran's condition and you will understand what happened to him.

I see where you're coming from, especially after reading more impressions on Bran's character.

Yet, maybe he no longer feels emotional attachment to the same characters the way he did before, but you would think he would show something other than complete dismissal and disregard for people that sacrificed everything for him.

Is that the way the previous Three Eyed Raven saw the children of the forest? As mere pawns or insects in his grand quest? Does the wisdom he acquired strip him the memories of how he got there?

Regardless, Meera was brilliant in that scene. I hope it is not the last we see of her in the series.
