It looked like one of those... they're a real thing but I don't remember the name of them. You have a haft, you have a blade, and they fit together but there's also a cord so that the blade can detatch.
They were used to hunt birds and for spearfishing I think.
That's my guess.

I dunno if it'll be that gimmicky. I was thinking maybe a spear type weapon with detachable head? Maybe so she can put the Valyrian dagger in it's place? Or maybe some type of double edged spear.

Bonus points if she does it by stealing the face of one of the Night King's honor guard.

The weapon builder on the show talked about an amazing 2-part weapon that they built that'll be a "showstopper" when it's used. He was almost certainly talking about Arya's design.

Some speculate she was seen running through a dark hallway in the trailer with it, but I couldn't see it.

It's possible but why spend that much time and CGI on a sendoff when noone's even THOUGHT about Nymmeria on the show for six seasons except for book nerds and they could've spent those resources on giving us an update on fucking Ghost.
I mean, we're gonna get a shitton of Ghost in season 8 and they could've prepped us for that in 7....instead they spent four minutes and a chunk of the SFX budget reminding us Nymmeria exists.
I think it's more likely they needed to remind us of Nymmeria because we didn't need to be reminded of Ghost since everyone's been wondering where the fuck he's been...and Nymmeria coming out of nowhere in s8 would've seemed deus ex-y.

When I saw it would be 50 minutes I was surprised at the short duration, after seeing it I'm surprised they managed to provide that little content and still drag it out 50 minutes.
Looked awesome on a 4K OLED, I'm sure a ton of money was spent, its just that the story didn't move at all. Lets hope EP2 steps it up a lot, people and things need to start dying.

Actually, there are only 5 episodes left but the final 4 are each movie length so they still have a good amount of room to work with but ya I kind of agree that they could've done a little bit more with the first episode.

How are you getting HBO in 4K? I thought they were only mastered for 4K for the physical media releases? The scene at the Umber castle looked like shit and I suspect that it was meant for HDR10-type low light enhanced contrast.

HBO is fighting for relevancy in the era of streaming content providers and yet they arent even offering up a full HD signal much less the sort of fidelity I now expect with a 'premium' content source. Very disappointing.
I did note that The Mandalorian on Disney+ will be in 4K on the day it launches.
