was pretty interesting episode, Idk how I feel about time travel added to the show, but if it is a closed loop system there would be no changing past events.  Everything is fated to occur no matter what.  Makes you wonder if the mad king was hearing things from Bran or the 3 eyed raven and misinterpreting them.  Hodor was broken due to knowing his purpose and end long before it ever happened. 


another interesting couple of thoughts.

 

in the books Old Nan always tells Bran one of his favorite stories about Bran the building but Bran doesn't like that story.  Then Bran reflects on how Old Nan has lived so long she has seen many Brans and sometimes seems to confuse them.  Tinfoil hat me wonders if all the Brans are just one entity.

 

Summer dying might be the most symbolic representation of Winter is Coming possible

 

I really want Tormound to seduce the maiden fair

 

One of the best episodes of the whole series in my opinion.
