But before then we will see (all guesses) Margery's plan come to fruition (Mountain rampage kills High Sparrow?), Dany sailing with Dothraki across the sea, and Cersei winning at her trial... because there must be a scene with her standing opposite Dany and Tyrion.
I read a prediction that

And I was an actual giant, I would for sure carry a club or giant stick or something
I was pissed that the giant wasn't armed with like a fallen tree or some big fuckin rocks

And why the hell didnt they just steal those fucking shields when they'd kill someone in the first layer of the circle? And why in a storm of arrows didnt Jon decide to just snatch a helmet.

Ramsay told Sansa that she could never kill him because he is part of her now. I'd be sad to see Sansa turn into a manipulative Jon-betraying badguy. Her arc has been a tortured and twisted one, but it's generally moved in the direction of goodness and maturity to this point. It'd be sad to see her lose that.

I think they'll argue and differ on a lot of things, but I don't see her turning evil or outright betraying him.

There was one moment in that super long shot where there is a volley of arrows, then screams then the they all go quiet at once as if the sound cut out. It's a little thing, but I thought it was really cool.

I loved the tactics and the fact that dead bodies altered the battlefield. Metal AF.
