The Game of Thrones Thread (With Spoilers)

What did Bran say to Tyrion by the fire to give him reason to say he thought they might win?

 

It's not on the level it was when it was based on GRRM's writing.

 

I’ve definitely noticed that this seasons interactions seemed forced, several scene shots seemed out of place, and the story is very meh. You can still see the spark of the show there just not up to par as the previous seasons.

Luckily the actors that play Brianne, Sam, Tormund are still spot on. A Ghost, where the hell have you been this whole time?

 

Game of Babies, Cersei is pregnant, Dany is probably knocked up or will be soon. Gendry did it with Arya, she is probably combining the Starks and the Baratheons and going to have his baby. Brienne is probably going to do it with Jaime. Theon can probably with some magic knock up Sansa.

My theory is most people die in the next few episodes, few survivors of the war, Night King dies, bunch of babies get born, timeskip and then we see the kids, and that white walker baby survived so we do this roller coaster all over again.

 

If their writing is as lousy and predictable as we all think, then I'm pretty sure there's gonna be some chaos ensuing in the crypts. The crypts being the 'safest place' was mentioned so many times in the episode, that maybe something along the lines of the night king resurrecting the dead in the crypts will be plausible.

Brienne seems to be the most likely to die in next episode as well, given she finally got knighted in this one.

 

Actually if anything, I believe there is some speculation about the dead in the crypts being protectors of Wintetfell. If it's the statues or some other magic, IDK. Then there's the rumor about the castle being built on a sleeping dragon, which is why there's heated areas there. Interesting what they'll do, if anything.

 

Arya Stark with her throwing knives ability will be the one who will kill the Night King

 

Oh yeah I forgot about Greyworm as well. He's just as likely to die as Brienne, because of his talk with what'sherface in that episode as well, because well-- predictable writing.

 

Bran was the favorite (in Vegas, etc. betting) to sit on the throne, gotta think the mobsters know something and he at least won’t die soon. Maybe it’ll be something like bad guy wins game of thrones but -twist- it turns out it was Bran warging into him.

This show has gone on forever so obviously kids grow up but I didn’t like them putting an actress who was a little kid to start the show in a nude sex scene. That feels way too much like uncle bad touch wish fulfillment.

I like that Brienne got knighted because she’s the closest thing we have to actual chivalry left but that’s supposed to be something done by a king, Jon or Dany would have been better choices and would have made sense since she’d been protecting Sansa. If she dies as suspected then maybe Arya gets her sword as it was originally 1/2 of the Stark family weapon but that was a huge double handed thing, this would be more in line with the sword her targ hero from the first few seasons had. Well, assuming Arya lives.

The next episode is supposed to be the battle for winterfell so at least we’ll finally have some action to talk about. We just have to hopr the NK wins so the rest of the season is more interesting than the first two episodes plus showdown with Cersei as the anti-climactic ending.

 

Well the King Winterfresh has to have a weakness, I just hope it's not some lame-ass shtick.

Would be nice to see some thought being used into a plan that's better than what amounts to 'kill the guy with the ball'.

I mean come on, maybe some dragon glass shrapnel bombs, or more of that badass wildfire shit that burns every f'ing thing it touches, or has Cersei used it all? or something that might take out more than one or two of them at a time.

Don't get me wrong,
I look forward to Sansa going full on Bruce Lee with that new staff of hers, but there's gotta be more.
