Summer's death could have been better and so could have Leaf's. And did GRRM officially confirm it was his idea for "Hold the Door"? I know he use to do a lot of sci-fi including if I'm not mistaken things for Marvel comics in the 80's or w/e. But timeparadox and the origin of Hordor's Hordor is stupid so yeah I'll blame GRRM if both of those plot ideas were his.
No, I never said they were, I hoped that it would eventually become official. I do like the idea of gods playing a role indirectly and personally magic like reviving or reanimating the dead has to come from 'somewhere' in terms of why people can harness those abilities. Whitewalkers should have their own culture but to be tied to the god somehow in terms of who they worship perhaps? The costume thing was just a snark comment, they're good costumes really. But yeah WW's look too evil and monstrous, but maybe that was on purpose to deceive the audience.
I just read this, it's pretty good:
