It does feel like everything is coming at us so quickly compared to the slow pace and buildup of past seasons.
Imy glad Danaerys and Jon finally met and am curious how the family lineage comes into effect.
It's bad news I think. If Dany finds out then she realises that Jon is the heir and not her. She can't claim to be last Targ. Her not knowing means she's more likely to cooperate or we might have some House of Plantagenet style infighting over who is the rightful heir.Quote:

Would Jon still be the heir considering he still would be a bastard???...Maybe it will lead to a relationship and breeding between the two. I'm not sure but I certainly am looking forward to how it plays out.Quote:

the wildcard is going to be bran seeing rhaegar + lyanna interactions/convos/motivations for running off and having an ice and fire baby.
i dont think jon survives, and i do think sansa kills him.
i'd be impressed if they had the balls to do that.Quote:

Couldn't resist, grabbed and watched it earlier. Hard to not give spoilers, so I won't say anything else, other than a top shelf episode.Quote:

maybe it doesnt show up again until arya goes full musashi miyamoto with it on the undead in season 8 or something, but its weird seeing this thing pop out of nowhere like this in a chekhov's gun sorta way.
also, bit of mma math...:
hound = mountain, bre > hound, arya > bre, so..... arya > zombie mountain?
tl;dr its super hard to imagine how they fit this thing into the plot in the next 182 minutes, and it seems fairly stupid for it to pop up now if its not going to be relevant until july of 2018.
I been waiting for this episode for six fucking years. Fucking finally I got to see some dragons really tear up some shit. Well, a dragon at least.
Shoutout to handicapme for posting that it was out, I got to look like Mr. Cool Ice to my buds when they watched it at my place a day early
It was like they took an episode to give hella nods to the readers.Quote:

Jon shouldve beaten Theon half to death. That was weak af.
1v1 rested and fed i have Hound at #1. Brienne was a bad matchup imo. This is actually a completely crazy topic now considering how many greats have been killed or maimed. Arya may not count if shes effectively Jaqen Hagar.Quote:

Mountain is probably who the show is trying to show us is #1 but knowing he looks like a slow clown on screen makes this hard for me to accept.
1. Ghost
2.whoever
He seems to suspect hes dealing with the mad queen.Quote:

i've forgotten why he should be mad at theon
He was supposed to head home to join the grejoys to the north but sacked winterfell and fake killed the young stark kids instead.Quote:

also, did we ever find out who was the person trying to kill bran with the valerian burner?
little finger?

i mean if you really want to go full littlefinger, he (or his proxy) told the cutthroat to use the blade so just in case he got caught/killed, littlefinger could use it as a backup plan to frame tyrion...
but if we are being totally honest, packing that sort of intrigue into a show with so few episodes left seems like shit writing to me somehow. but then again, so does bran becoming this all-seeing time god who seems to be doing exactly fuckall to help people get their shit together.
but really who the fuck knows, at this point the show is dragon porn. blondie just wiped out an entire convoy of grain weeks before winter arrives and did so despite the gold (somehow being in the same caravan) having safely arrived at kings landing. you know, instead of heading over to lannisterland to save her fucking precious unsullied and/or nuke the greyjoy fleet, so yeah i dont know man. i dont know.

i mean everything you said was very informative and coge as fuck, but you never disappoint
Ever since Randyll Tarly reentered the picture, I've been thinking the same thing about the sword Samwell stole. Was there a point in him doing that? There have been no repercussions for it yet, and I don't think the sword has even been acknowledged in like 8 episodes.Quote:

and another thing, speaking of me getting shitty about ambiguous writing, whats the story with the children of the forest creating the night king to kill the first men, but according to the cave petroglyphs the first men and the children of the forest fought the night king?
AFAIK joffrey effectively copped to this at some point and it was well known that he made 0 moves without the counsel of baelish. Im open to being wrong here...Quote:

I guess i always thought the damning evidence was LF winning it from tyrion in a bet where jamie loses to ??? In some tournament?
more than anything i think it was just the writers thinking how clever they are by adding a nod to season one/three and a convenient way to put more valyrian steel in play before the white walkers show up. also lets bran fire a warning shot at LF that the jig may finally be up.
seems to be a running gag this season of having different characters recite quotes by other characters in previous seasons verbatim.
ive literally paid for hbo since 2005 and i refuse to watch this faggot show about dragons u should all be embarrassed

LF is the obvious #1 choice
Cersei might be a #2
Bran fucking up while time traveling and somehow bringing it upon himself might literally be #3 in my book.
Joffrey arranging it would be like, #13'ish. Least of all because it makes no sense at this point, it wouldnt further the plot.
As Sansa just pointed out, LF showing up with the dagger will mean something, somehow. If the daggers pre-assassin provenance ended with Joffrey, I dont see how that forwards the plot in any meaningful way...
eew at whatever tine just posted cuz it seemed earnest
aren't they pretty much confirming to us that LF is the culprit when he denies knowing the origin of the blade to bran?Quote:
