ASOIAF / Game of Thrones (SPOILERS INSIDE) - Page 291

Bran's story has gotten much better. i was worried he'd be stuck in the cave forever, and aside from maybe warging a dragon, would be useless in the future. so im very happy hes out of that cave. i'm just worried that whatever let the Night King into the cave, will also now allow him to pass the wall. the Benjen reveal i guessed from a trailer before the season started (which is interesting because now i think the show is merging benjen with another character they cut from the show). also, i loved all the bran flashbacks imagery. they showed what was in the tower in a flash, as well as all the last moments of the Mad King and the moments immediately following him being killed by Jaime in an effort to save everyone from being burned in Kings Landing.

Arya is in a ton of trouble. but she always rebels against everything, and i refused to believe shed just give up and accept her fate as a faceless man. i imagine she'll kill that other girl, and will have to escape from the house of black and white before heading back to westeros. i also love the play that arya is watching. its such a true representation of actual history insofar as the winners get to write history. so Ned and Tyrion are super bad people, Cersei and Joffrey are super good people, etc.

i love that Sam took that sword. between that sword (Heartsbane) and Brienne's sword (Oathkeeper), and Jon's sword (Longclaw), theres now 3 valyrian steel swords in the hands of the good guys [You must be logged in to view images.

Margaery im pretty sure is just playing along and pretending to drink the koolaid to save her brother Loras. what worries me a lot is that Tommen seems to legit be drinking it, he replaced his kingsguard with members of the church and supporters of the high sparrow. (ie: not Lannister supporters). also, when Jaime tells the sparrow that Margaery will not be making that walk, Margaery has this smirk on her face.

Jaime is getting sent to Riverrun to deal with the Blackfish, and last week Sansa sent Brienne to Riverrun to try and recruit the Blackfish. so it will be super interesting to see what happens when Jaime and Brienne cross paths considering they will be on opposite sides of the conflict. i really dont want either of them to die, but i think that one of them will. i also dont think Jaime and Cersei will ever see each other alive again. and i think its possible that Brienne will bring Jaime to Sansa, similar to the way we are led to believe Brienne is bringing Jaime to see Stoneheart in Book 4.

as for Cersei, her confidence worries me. her frankenstein monster is not invincible and i dont think she realizes that. should the mountain die with Jaime not in Kings Landing, Cersei is fucked. if she loses the trial by combat, she will be executed by the faith. if we get Clegane Bowl, it will be purely fan service. Sandor is still wounded, and The Hound persona is "dead and at rest".

Walder Frey is back. fuck Walder Frey. im thinking those two freys are going to end up in a meat pie [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

as for Dany, she needs a thousand ships right? and Yara just like the iron islands with all the ships right? in the trailer before the season started we see Yara with a woman straddling her lap as they're making out, the woman has a small tattoo under her eye, and its the same tattoo that the slave prostitutes of Essos have, meaning that Yara will be in Essos, and Yara will ultimately be the reason (and the way) that Dany can take her dothraki, unsullied, seconds sons, and any other supporters with her to Westeros.

and then all the previews look super exciting. i think episodes 7-10 are just going to be action packed (at least i can hope)

ps- i dont think the dragons will die, i think she will die. maybe 1 dragon. but i heard a video saying this and i think i agree with it; "Dany is a mythical character. she has no place in a non mythical world."
as for being fireproof, in the books Dany (and all targs) are simply not fire proof in the book. many Targs have thought they were fire proof, and they all usually end up dead from doing something really stupid involving fire and the belief it can not hurt them, or they were at Summerhall when it burned down. in season 1 Dany didnt burn because there was blood magic in play, among other things (we know that from books 1 & 4). as for what happened in the show last week, i have no idea if thats canon, or just HBO being bat shit crazy fan boys.

i assure you Margaery does not actually believe any of the shit she was saying to Tommen or to the sparrow. that is all a ruse to protect her brother and get them both out of there. (in the book, Loras is never arrested or remotely involved in the story with the sparrow, so im speculating). but Margaery is one of the smartest, most cunning characters in the story. they arent going to break her that easy.

as for the sparrow, i dont trust him. hes told two completely different stories now regarding why hes barefoot (one to Cersei, and one to Margaery). hes also accumulating, which is not something a person would do if they believed all the shit he says. the sparrow has an agenda, and other than gaining power for him and the church, i have no idea what he wants. but hes 100% up to something and not being completely honest about it.

Sirken was feeling some kind of way about that episode.

AzzarTheGod · #**2904** 05-30-2016, 09:01 PM

I appreciated sirks refocusing.

LGraves · #**2905** 05-30-2016, 09:21 PM

I totally didn't think about Brienne and Jaime being reuninted in that fashion. Really good point there.

I think the intro is Preston's way of saying that this whole season has been like taking it up the ass from a boar tusk.

I wasn't intrigued to read anymore of the books , but after hearing so much commentary from various sources. I will end up buying the books and reading. It sounds HBO has really fucked up a great series... Damn shame , because the actors are absolutely wonderful. Peter Dinklage is the man
