Jim and A.Ron survey the horrors of war that is episode 609 of HBO\u2019s\xa0Game of Thrones, \u201cBattle of the Bastards\u201d, and proclaim it brutal, ultimately satisfying, if a tad predictable.\xa0There were no real surprises to be found tonight if you\u2019ve been paying attention the past few weeks, but it\u2019s still nice to see the end of some truly nasty regimes tonight, even if the casualties were high in both the statistical and personal sense.\xa0At this stage each loss of life is going to hurt in the war to come, that still awaits north of the wall. And we still don\u2019t know the true cost of the hasty alliances made with the Greyjoys and Littlefinger\u2019s Arryn forces.\xa0And will Sansa\u2019s talk of \u201cno one\u201d be prophetic?\xa0We ponder all this and more in this Instant Take.\xa0Be sure to rejoin us on Tuesday for our complete scene by scene break down with tons of commentary from our fellow fans.\nSupport Bald Move:\xa0Amazon\xa0|\xa0Club Bald Move\nLeave Us A Review\nJoin the discussion:\xa0Email\xa0|\xa0Forums\xa0|\xa0Facebook\xa0|\xa0Twitter\nTheme song: Game of Thrones (80\u2019s TV Theme) by Highway Superstar\nLearn more about your ad choices.
