I'm rather sick of the Bolton's portrayal. Fingers crossed they do away with the entire family this season. Decidedly not a very GoT thing to have happen, (giving the people what they want) but I'm hoping D&D whack both father and son by the end of the season.

Not overly interested in Ramsey's quest to become a somebody. I liked the dynamic better when Roose was wheeling and dealing. When they settled into Winterfell I just didn't care for them anymore.

I, too, view Roose as a scheming climber one step ahead of everyone else. But, he's made or is making mistakes. He has no natural allies other than Ramsay - good luck with that. I think when events start to turn on him, he'll be a goner. Season 6 exit will be no surprise.

I do wonder about Ramsay. The showrunners have made him smarter and more daring than books. The North needs to be well rid of both of them, but i wouldn't be surprised if they kept Ramsay around as a fly in the ointment. Reek/Theon and Sansa/Arya escaped from him. Betrayed him. And, i could see showrunners keeping him around and making that a secondary storyline.

The below link is analysis for the 4.24 drop. Its very long - 45 minutes, but it includes some impressive research, cross references, and speculation. There's some jibber jabber of course, but i found it a worthwhile watch.

Here's a random thought. After re-reading 5th book, I was struck by how the Boltons sowed the seeds for Theon's escape. Overly confident in Ramsay's brainwashing? The one Theon shot in trailer shows dogs - Ramsay's girls. I think it would be funny if the girls track Theon and then don't attack him because they recognize him as one of their pack. #backfire I'll tack this on, it would seem out of character if Ramsay sent out some of his crew and his girls to find Theon and Sansa. He's want to be on that hunt, right?

so, there was an interview with ramsay (https://youtu.be/LkIunmGS0Ss?t=30s) where i think they let go a spoiler confirming that Roose will be killed by Ramsay this season. skip to the 30second mark if you dont wanna watch the whole thing

Ah Sirks based on this link, at the time-stamp you referenced:

It sounds like they are referring to a scene where Ramsey is flaying someone else, and Roose watches on and winces. I believe this is a reference to a scene either last season or 2 seasons ago. Its blurry, but I seem to recall some flaying aroundthe Winterfell siege and settlement of House Bolton.

I had to listen to it literally 20-odd times before I could even understand him and then another 10 times word-by-word. But if you listen again I think you'll probably draw the same conclusion that I did.

Hopefully it's Wun Wun busting out Ghost.

At 32 min Dayne doesn't look as badass as he needs to. Interesting that BG says this is what kingsguard armor for the period should look like. Her stuff is pretty well sourced. Also, her voice is a lot less annoying to me than Rawrist. Good find!

We'll have to see how it turns out. But, i will be disappointed if Dayne isn't swinging Dawn, and if there is really only Ned + 5. If they're going to show 6, why not stick with canon and use 7. I also pictured Howland as much smaller physically, armed with spear, net, etc. Gear appropriate to the Neck. I still expect TOJ to be awesome reveal.

while im sure shes right and thats Arthur Dayne, it really REALLY bothers me that he has two swords instead of Dawn.

Watching season 2, episode 8. What a waste of Stannis in the end. His scenes with Davos are the best.

im pretty certain that the showrunners either didn't like the character of Stannis, or they didn't like the actor portraying him. either way, they shipped him off early, and never did him justice in the show.

saw an interview with the actor that plays stannis basically talking shit about the show (story here: http://winteriscoming.net/2016/03/16...me-of-thrones/), so im pretty certain they killed him off for reals
