I thought it was a good episode but I've liked some others much better. Maybe I was just too soured by the wildfire blowing everything up and then the water battle was deemed over so darn quickly, I don't know, but I was disappointed. DH, OTOH, loved it and couldn't stop talking about it the next day at the family get-together so at least one of us liked the battle...
That said, I loved everything that wasn't the fighting. I've always loved Tyrion and Peter D and I think GRRM really made him shine in this epi. Actually, I think he did a great job at making everyone shine this epi, and we got very clear insight into each of the characters. I only wish I could like Shaye more...
Critical, your Princess Bride reference was spot on.Love that scene and it described Joffrey perfectly!
