The sixth season of the fantasy drama television series Game of Thrones was ordered by HBO on April 8, 2014, together with the fifth season, and is scheduled to premiere on April 24, 2016. In contrast to the previous seasons, it largely consists of original content not found in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, but also adapts material from the upcoming sixth novel in the series, The Winds of Winter, as well as some content from the fourth and fifth novels, A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons.

Episode 1: "The Red Woman" on April 24, 2016
Plot
In King's Landing
As King Tommen Baratheon's (Dean-Charles Chapman) peaceful reign in Westeros begins to come undone and the Faith of the Seven threaten to take over, Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) returns to King's Landing with Myrcella Baratheon's (Nell Tiger Free) body and is met by a distraught Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey), who is out for blood against the Martells, endangering Myrcella's betrothed, Trystane Martell (Toby Sebastian).
At the Wall
Melisandre (Carice van Houten) and Ser Davos Seaworth (Liam Cunningham) remain at Castle Black while the Night's Watch deals with the repercussions of Lord Commander Jon Snow's (Kit Harington) murder.
Across the Narrow Sea
Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) meets the leader of the khalasar that has taken her captive, while Jorah Mormont (Iain Glen) and Daario Naharis (Michiel Huisman) continue their search for her. With the aid of Varys (Conleth Hill), Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage) stands in as the ruler of Meereen during Daenerys' absence, but although he has Missandei (Nathalie Emmanuel) and Grey Worm (Jacob Anderson) assisting him, he struggles to keep an emerging rebellion under foot.
In the North
Ramsay Bolton (Iwan Rheon) deals with Myranda's (Charlotte Hope) death and the disappearance of Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) and Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen). On the run from Bolton soldiers, Sansa and Theon have to rely on their survival instincts and wits to keep them alive.
Although the show seems to have gotten very different compared to the books and if the lazy fuck decides to finish his books the story might develop in a different scenario. But taking the easy money is disgusting as a fan of the series

Looks like HBO made their own version of the former show they used to have on SKY television in the United Kingdom for Game of Thrones. The hosts on the HBO are more witty, but the hosts on SKY television had a GoT character on their show every week.

Yeah! I looked up at my clock and the first 25 minutes had already went by. I think the episodes are going so fast cuz they are introducing a bunch of different storylines in each episode.
Kinda crazy that there's "only" 8 episodes left in a 10-episode season. Too bad HBO never makes any of their top rated shows more than 1 hour long.

Here's the information for Episode 2:
"Walda gives birth to a baby boy, prompting Ramsay to murder Roose, Walda, and his new half-brother. Brienne reveals to Sansa that Arya is still alive. Theon requests to return to the Iron Islands, where his uncle Euron Greyjoy returns and murders King Balon Greyjoy. In Braavos, Arya is attacked by the Waif before Jaqen appears and orders her to follow him. Tyrion learns that Astapor and Yunkai have reverted to slavery, and releases Rhaegal and Viserion from their chains. Bran visits Winterfell in a vision, and sees Ned, Benjen, and Lyanna Stark, as well as a young Hodor. Jaime confronts the High Sparrow, while Tommen asks Cersei to teach him to be strong. Edd arrives with Tormund and the Wildlings and imprisons Thorne and the other mutineers. Davos persuades Melisandre to attempt to resurrect Jon Snow; though apparently unsuccessful, after the loyalists leave the room, Jon suddenly awakens."

Yeah the guy that came is Euron, he s one of the two brothers Balon had, he went around the world with his fleet after failing to obtain the iron island's throne.
I just thought Balon died earlier because Mellisandre did a triple blood spell supposedly resulting the Red Wedding, Little annoying Lannister's death and Greyjoy shoulda been the third. That has never been confirmed in either books or series though, just a popular concept. Whatever though, its things revolving around Euron that matter there anyway, lets see what they do next
I think Stannis is alive and that the vision Milesandre saw on the flames it will become real, it just wasn't the fight outside of Winterfell.

I dunno everyone seemed to think he was coming back anyway. not really much of a surprise especially considering the theories that the whole series is about him and daenerys. Fuck tyrion , I want more Sansa. She was always my favorite in the books lol.
i didn't think the revive was bad but the setup was weak:
"ive seen u do miracles"
"oh i dont have that power"
"well have u tried, u dont know if u have it until u try"
"oh ok let me try i know a spell"
and instead of the cliche eye opening end scene how about u show only the wolf and him getting up and wagging his tail then end :D

I agree with Baal. We can't say people reviving is predictable. A lot of really important key character have been killed off and none were revived so far.

Roose was definitely one of the best characters / actors on the show and fucking cunt ass Ramsay slays him? I hope the producers of this show realize how much of a fucking little shit he is and kills him off in the most brutal way ever. Maybe Arya comes and stick her needle up his butthole while he's asleep?

it seems inevitable to me that Jon Snow and Ramsay will face off towards the end of this season with Jon owning him in the hardest possible way

the white walkers get pushed back over the wall, the most evil characters mostly die, but so do daenerys and jon snow, in a necessary sacrifice to defeat the white walkers. And there are 7 kingdoms left, no unification.
That wont happen for sure because it sounds like something Brandon Sanderson would write, if it does the entire series would be worth shit

This ties into the R+L = J theory i think. Isn't baby Dany also in that Tower or am I mistaken? Pretty sweet how they showed that Ned didn't own the Knight of the Morning in a sword fight but actually got super bailed out and should've been dead

I'm wondering if Jon Snow coming back from the dead will give him some special ability when fighting the dead people. For example, maybe him being dead, then revived, allows him to not get attacked by the low level dead guys who do the Night's King bidding.

sword fight 4v1 with two longswords was dumb, but fun to watch. fights have been getting progressively sillier as the show goes on.
here's what happens in 2nd to last episode this season. + Show Spoiler +
battle between boltons and starks/wildlings. Boltons outnumber starks 6 to 1. The armies meet and Ramsey says Rickon can go to John Snow, but then when rickon runs to snow he starts shooting arrows at him, and hits him. The starks get crushed, umber fights tormund in a 1v1 and tormund wins. Sansa and littlefinger arrive with knights of vale and crush the Boltons. Ramsey retreats to castle, wun wun the giant smashes winterfells door in, but then dies to an arrow to the eye. John snow beats Ramsey to death.

What will Jon Snow do now ?
What will Daenerys do now ?
How will that Lord Umber -Rickon Stark - Ramsey Bolton thing work out ? (Since Umbers were loyal to Starks and hate Boltons this could very well end with many dead people)
How and when will the conflict in Westeros between Kingsguard and Faith of the 7 really escalate ?
What Powers is Bran Stark getting from the Black Raven Training ?
U see what i did there with A8 ? He 4 bets and there we go insta jam A8 : ---booooom -- . hahahaha ( Krantz)
I'm guessing they'll try to do something violent to Daenerys, not necessarily kill her, but the black drag will come and be like "HANDS OFF MY MOTHER MOFOS". And Daenerys will be like "kneel down you peasants" and force them to go rape Meereen and the other 3 cities all over again with her new savage army
Then again I hope im wrong, cause that would be too obvious
jon snow = son of ned stark's sister and that targaryen guy.

I also predict some of this sentiment that while Daario & Jorah are trying to rescue Dany in the next episode, Drogon comes out of nowhere and starts roasting lots of horses. All 3 of them escape while this madness is going on

Rhaegar is the son of the mad king
He was supposed to marry Cersei, however he fell in love with Lianna Stark therefore the rumours are Jon is their son, which hasn't been confirmed yet, but most likely will be true. Thats also why Tywinn went from being the hand of the king to supporting Robert Baratheon and married Cersei to him( which was his deal of the alliance). Jamie killed the mad king, cuz when Lannister & Baratheon were outside of the city, he was gonna burn the whole city with that fire they used in the battle in the sea outside King's Landing hence looking as if he was ordered so by Tywinn. but in fact he s a good guy and saved the city.

well shit...
I need to study up on my GoT history i guess. 0/2 so far in this thread alone. Let try for the trifecta: So is Dany the daughter of Rhaegar from a previous woman other than Lyanna? This would make her and Jon Snow half brother/sister, right?
edit: just decided to use google for once. So Rhaegar is actually the eldest brother of Dany it appears. Dany's father was the Mad King

I predict the Hound fights the Mountain for Cersei's trial by combat and wins, then the sparrows take over King's Landing
(I guess it's a semi obvious plot development)
Which would make it a bit awkward because I really want Cersei to fuck the sparrows up but wtf the Hound has to win vs the asshole brother

The hound is alive, there will be no cleganebowl. At least not this season.

it would be very shitty writting if the Hound is alive... I mean he was left morally wounded in the middle of nowhere and the "we didnt watch him die" is the oldest trick in the book to revive characters it would be really disappointing in the quality of the show.

"His fate is left uncertain when Arya refuses to kill him out of mercy, leaving him for dead on the side of a mountain road in the Vale." from the wiki
It's not like he's Indiana Jones surviving a nuclear bomb in a fridge, he was critically wounded and left for dead, maybe someone found him and healed him, arguably a cheap trick but story wise if the Clegane fight happens it makes sense that the writer wouldn't show the hound's entire transformation process, just like eg you don't see how Lancel Lannister became a religious nutjob in detail. I just think the whole backstory with his brother makes more sense if he's alive (plot armor) . If he's dead it's just random info before a random death, why would they even bother mentioning that he's off Arya's list in season 6?
new shit has come to light... a-and... shit! man...

Episode 4 was pretty decent. The only thing that sucked about it was the High Sparrow. Hopefully he gets killed off soon, rather than at the end of the season.
The preview for Episode 5 looks SICKKKKKKK!

The Tyrion and Dany scenes were awful, omg. No slave master would ever agree to that deal when they have the advantage. Everything else seemed fine.

Tyrion scene was terrible indeed
Dany im split, im guessing something close to that will happen in the books as well, but would have more sense. Was kind of random how the guards outside were all dead and gates were locked, considering sir Friendzone and his buddy would somehow have to slay a bunch of dorthraki right outside with no noise exiting their throats. Maybe she got the help of someone else as well. Doesn't matter though cuz TITS

North of the wall: - Bran has a vision in which he finds out the CotF are the ones who created the white walkers to guard something, but it went wrong. He has another vision about ToJ, we see a baby, Lyanna whispers something to Ned, and we cut to Jon. Bran sees the whitewalkers in his vision (episode 5 possibly?) and the Night King senses him, and they find them. Night King kills 3ER, the others escape.
Castle Black/North: -Jon and Sansa go to bear island and the mormont girl backs Jon as the King of the North, so does Sansa apparently. They get support of several Northern houses, but apparently the Mormonts only have a hundred men left to pledge. Overall seems a bit funny. Davos is there and has a sick speech. Other houses pledge to Jon as King of the North. -Sansa meets up with Littlefinger in episode 5 in Moat Cailin(?) and says she doesn't believe he didnt know about Ramsay. She doesn't want anything to do with him. -Bastardbowl happens, at the start Rickon is running towards Jon who rides to him, but just when he arrives Ramsay aims for him to die and he dies in Jons arms. Team Jon wins in the end (unknown if its because LF or not) and he imprisons Ramsay, he does not kill him. Wun Wun survives, no other Stark dies.
Kings Landing: - Tommen jumps out of the window and kills himself. - Tyrells/Other big KL actors get slaughtered in the end, red wedding style. - Cersei's trial by combat gets denied, Mountain kills shamebitch.

why wouldnt slavemasters take 7 years of slavery and compensation instead of maybe facing an army and 3 fucking huge dragons and be defeated again but this time they would certainly die?
Also why it seems unreasonable that they sneaked and killed a couple of guards by surprise?, the temple was full of fearsome warriors its not like they need a lot of bodyguards

Stroggoz, where did you get that spoiler info? It honestly seems like most of that is derived from the up next scenes at the end of 4 and popular fan theory of where everything is headed. Personally I don't think Rickon stands a chance of surviving too long. He's not a PoV in the book, absent from the show for years, and GRRM even admitted he forgot about him while writing the books. Pretty much all major signs point to him not surviving too long. If you have some legit insight, feel free to give me some advice for who is going to payoff in the dead pool https://sports.bovada.lv/entertainment
Baal, the masters aren't afraid of Dany and her dragons. To them, it's like we're down significant material in a chess game and offering a draw.
Also, there is some pretty good credibility that the hound is still alive in the books. I know the show and the books have diverged a lot, but they are taking two paths to the same destination, so it's possible that he'll be seen again. Lot of people hoping he comes back to fight his brother.

I find the dead pool super interesting and have a theory based on the lines...
So if you take a look at the lines, for the most part basically everyone in Kings Landing (Jorah is the exception) are the odds on favorites to be killed. Obviously there will be a battle there extremely soon (next ep prob) based on the Lannisters and Tyrells coming together to try and overthrow the High Sparrow and religious nuts.
My theory is that the Tyrells are plotting to overthrow the Lannisters when this battle happens. It all just makes too much sense. The entire Tyrell army is going to be already be inside of Kings Landing's walls. The Lannisters will be busy trying to fight the Sparrow and his army. It's a perfect time to ambush and slaughter the Lannister army in the midst of pure chaos. With that said, I think there could also be a good chance the Lannisters have already sniffed this out and may be well prepared for an ambush. So I think I'm going to mix in a couple of each House that are long shots and have enough on someone like the Sparrow to hedge on the other bets
With that said, I like some of the longer shots in the dead pool that are characters currently in Kings Landing...
The most likely to die that are in Kings Landing are...
High Sparrow +550
Loras Tyrell +750

There's a lot of sneaky shit going down in Kings Landing. Lot of it stemming from the 'secret' that the High Sparrow told Tommen, and then the small council scene that immediately follows. While they're discussing plans, Rains of Castamere is playing in the background, and that usually points to a lot of Lannister enemies dying.
For the pool - I can't see Tommen going out before Cersei, mainly because of the prophecy from Maggy the Frog where she says her kids are going to die before her, and then her 'little brother' is going to kill her. FWIW, Jamie and Cersei are twins, and Cersei was born first, making Jamie her little brother as well (may lead to Cersei dying at the hands of Jamie later on?)
I'm considering betting on Loras/Margery. I don't think they'll be so eager to kill off Jorah because I think he still has a story arc to hit. Thinking the High Sparrow is way more crafty bc of the secret mentioned above, and the fact that he's probably pulling a bunch of strings.

Wow u can bet money on this? I would wager hodor dies next episode. His dying words will probably be hodorrrr. There is a chance arya kills cersei in episode finale, with odds that good i might bet on her dying. Just speculation no spoilers here. Im thinking cersei uses a lot of wildfire to kill a lot of people as well. I dont beleive maggie the frog is always right. It could be arya is the volanqur, she puts jaimes face on and kills cersei in next season? Would be interesting way for maggie to be right.
Pretty good odds on margery dying. in my view thats quite likely given so many factors.

I'm glad jorah and Dario took one of danys favourite outfits with them so.she could change into it incase allher clothes burnt off. What's up with putting random pointless close ups of wart infested penises on the show? Littlefinger is a fast travelor. Doesn't really explain how dothraki join dany. She burns down a hut with all their leaders and theyjust follow her ??? Seems like a strange basis of government

Don't forget that Ian McShane will be on the show at some point this season:
"'Deadwood' alumnus Ian McShane, 73, is joining Season 6 for one key episode. He's said to have a small amount of screen time, but his character is very important. As he teased it to Pop Goes the News, 'I am responsible for bringing somebody back that you think you’re never going to see again. I’ll leave it at that.' Interesting, but who? The Hound, perhaps?"

It's okay Hodor will live. If you look closely you can see he crawled underneath the dumpster.
It ll be Lady Stoneheart, as it all makes sense. Jon needs an army, Lady Stoneheart probably gathered a nice amount of it.
Problem is she always thought he s actually a bastard indeed and did not like him, however they do see shit when they die, so she might've seen Ned was lying

I just watched a video saying that several of the prostitutes on GoT were in porn before they were chosen to be on the show. I checked Shae's IMDB page and say she was in several adult movies: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1402546/

pretty obvious why.. there has to be a balance between male and female nudity otherwise people will complain about female objectification which is sort of fair enough. case in point the highlight of the episode for me was the actress' magnificent tits in that same scene (im sure she's also a multi-talented actress and lovely person)

This hasn't been covered in the books yet as TWOW isn't out, but GRRM has had the Hodor story planned out since 1996. He's said it won't go down the same in the book though, so there's that to look forward to.

From what i understand, Hodor was supposed to be a normal person. Then when bran badly needed to save himself, but was stuck in his vision of the past, the only option he had was to mind control Hodor from the past, thefore changing everything and saving himself.
The problem with this theory is.... in the past he already did mind control a mindless Hodor???

Once u try to get reallife logic into this time travel stuff it doesnt work anymore
Thats the nature of time travel....
It cant be logically explained when looking at it from our current scientific understanding.
Its just not possible
So what happend is that the character Hodor was basically born by seeing his own death in the future.
At the same time old Hodor (Wylis) basically got "murderd " by bran from the future when he forced him to see his death in order to rescue mankind
Also insane that Hodor from there on his whole live knew this moment where he had to hold the door getting killed by wights would come one day and silently accepted it

I don't think hodor lived his whole life knowing shit
he had a seizure when he was young with an intense experience that traumatized him deeply
he isn't aware of what happened to him at all but the experience was still powerful enough to forever imprint "hodor" into his mind
his fringe side characters are better planned out and more interesting than competitors' story
I don't care much for all the inception stuff but it resonates with me that hodor's entire life was as a thrall to brandon stark. The "good guys" are still a noble family and the noble families are built on the exploitation of others. The only thing hodor ever does in the entire story is take commands, work selflessly and hard and get mocked for his stupidity. He's basically the GOT equivalent of black slavery.
"He's never gonna learn to use a sword because he's a stableboy" sums up his life
the only thing more tragic than hodor's plot is that grrm couldn't reveal it himself and had to leave it to those drooling buffoons from the tv show
btw how many of you still doubt that grrm has his shit together and will tie up all of the 10000000000000 loose ends into a worthy ending? this man is on another level if only he can avoid getting slain by philly cheese steaks b4 he gets there
drooling buffoons? lol kind of a harsh way to describe the exec producers of the most watched show on HBO (and most pirated show worldwide). they're at the very top of their field. what have you accomplished lately?
Pretty sure there was somewhere mentioned in the books that Hodor went into the Winterfell crypt and came out a cripple, so yeah I doubt it goes the same way in the books.
Winds of winter will surely come out, as far as rumours go it should be published by the end of the year, or at least a date should be set. Considering series loose ends amount to probably 40% of all loose ends he has tons of work to do. I also doubt we have a conclusive ending as the whole concept of the series is that " the game of thrones " has always been and always will be, best case scenario they demolish the white walkers and reset the whole cycle.

Nah, not in the books. Prob a fan theory because Bran asked Hodor to take him to the crypts, but Hodor refused bc he was afraid, so Osha had to take him.

Its interesting to note that the Starks ruled for thousands of years extracting tribute in the North but apparently serfs never questioned that relationship?, in reality it usually requires mass scale violence to maintain a master servant relationship like that in history, and this is almost always accompanied by a dehumanized view of peasants as inferior things.

I think the story is more that eddard is just a very unusual guy who feels that strongly about justice (and even then in his sense of justice it still involves decapitating a traumatised guy who deserts the wall because them's the rules). This is partially explained by eddard being a younger son; he was meant to follow his older brother brandon's lead
if you hear about the starks of history a lot of them were as vicious as you describe. I'm sure a lot of them do feel peasants are inferior things

here is a scene from season 6 episode 4 to highlight your "top of their field" guys' sick skills when they're on their own. I liked the tv show in season 1 but this tilts me to no end + Show Spoiler +
jelle why do you think that this scene sucks so much?
I think there are far worse scenes if you're to blame the producers for things that aren't in the books

I don't nescessarily hate them for adapting the books, as long as they don't fuck it up horribly. For example I don't mind them changing arthur dayne's fighting style to 2-handed, that seems like a detail to me and it allowed them to do some more impressive action scene. (even in that scene though they weirdly change lines like "We weren't there" / "Woe to the usurper if we had been" to "We weren't there" / "Your friend the Usurper would lie beneath the ground if we had been". How the fuck do they convince themselves that their line is so much better that they have to change it? "Woe to the usurper if we had been" is too difficult to understand or what?)
for me that dany "lol i burn u" scene just felt completely wrong/unbelievable and like a pointless rehash of daenerys' previous story. Also the dialogue where she makes a bold claim and everyone laughs at her was like standard anime fare. I can never quite put my finger exactly one why, but I just feel my immersion is broken and become very aware that I'm watching a fabricated story. When I like a scene I'm not thinking about producers or cameras. Luckily for me, this time a youtube user did a very good job pointing out a bunch of reasons why it blows

-> Why is Dany so confident? Her plan is to knock over a brazier. Lol. She makes a huge point out of insulting them to the max before killing them for badassery points as if her plan could never fail in a million years
-> How does she know the brazier is not bolted to the floor?
-> How does she know that these fearless warriors will panic, allowing her to slowly knock over the other braziers?

-> Jorah's and Daario's role is to lock the door. lol
-> How is it reasonable to let that dothraki girl go and trust her when you're about to burn the leaders of her culture alive?
but yes I agree with you that sadly there are many even worse scenes especially in season 5 (i think season 6 is better than 5 at least) I just wanted to give an example.
Something like the hairband may seem like nitpicking but this is basically their job. The brilliant story is already there, they need to convey it on screen as well as possible. Instead they fabricate needless stuff and make massive blunders

Those seem like fair criticisms to make. That's why I thought the scene was bad as well. The show, book dany also suffers from white savior complex. White noble woman freeing the slaves lol. There are rare people like that from history but they've never received any institutional support from their own class.

it's not easy to objectively debate the subtle nuance of what is and isn't considered believable in a story with dragons, zombies, necromancers and people who come back to life thanks to magic. rather than look at what does and doesn't please diehard book fanboys i prefer to judge the producers' success by their impact on hbo's revenues and time warner's share price performance. they are doing their job outstandingly well on these metrics and giving the great unwashed masses who love broad entertainment what they want. how is it not obvious that when a show portrays a scene with a powerful woman who refuses to be subjugated by patriarchy and instead coldly murders the men who were just talking about taking turns raping her - that is exactly the kind of thing audiences will lap up in droves?
i just don't understand what goes through the minds of people who feel entitled to watch a show that exactly meets their requirements for what should be considered good, and become angered enough to hurl abuse at producers if this requirement is not met.
hey hey
im a diehard book fanboy and i disagree with 80% of what he said :D
if you think too hard about any tv production there will be tons of holes
they're doing a great job this season after a somewhat dumb last season
also we can only compare books to show when it comes down to the storyline, thats as far as it can go, books will always win considering they give a much wider perspective and allow ur fantasy to work, you just cant do that in a tv show

To be completely fair, I think a lot of those bullet points could be easily addressed. The other young Khaleesi she befriended before bumping into Jorah and Dario had access to that building and could have done a lot of the prep work to make sure that place would light up instantly. Seems simple enough imo.
As for other subtle/major changes, GRRM writes books, DD direct TV. Some things work better in books, while some things work better on TV. I have no experience in either, so I can't justify any of the changes except the obvious ones where Asha's name was changed to Yara, or the general fact that they excluded so many characters in the show. The line change at tower of joy seems inconsequential, and there was a good argument from a medieval combat expert that dayne using 2 swords wasn't entirely an action choice, but given its 2v7 it's a reasonable style to adopt.

Imagine that instead of making the GOT tv show, they'd made a movie about danaerys, cutting everything else from the story. No eddard, no lannisters etc. The story is about Danaerys' and her brother and ends when her brother and drogo are dead and all the dothraki worship her and she becomes a perfect queen and they all live happily ever after.
The movie brings in good revenue (but less than the GOT show now). I shit on the movie in a liquidpoker post. You disagree and argue that since it made money we have to assume that the creators did an outstanding job? OK
Also in your opinion I am not allowed to call the unburnable hairband a mistake because it's a fantasy story and we have to respect the possibility that there really are unburnable hairbands....?
I guess we just see things differently

their scene would have been improved so much if they just had that guy on set
the plopping the sword in the ground thing is a nice example; for me it didn't ruin anything consciously because I'm too ignorant to feel like something is wrong there, but if you get all of those little details right I think the end result will be infinitely better. The weird thing is that it doesn't seem so daunting to accomplish that. They have so much money and there are guys like this out there...

Interesting vid. From my personal exp fencing its quite suprising he didnt criticise the footwork, which is extremely important to be good at swordfighting. The no armor on wrists and arms is huge, since that is the closest target it is where you try to get the vast majority of your hits.
He didnt comment on 4v1 weather thats realistic. Theres a vid on youtube of 3 masters fencers beating 50 average, trained ones.
The worst fight is the sand snakes one because of choreography, simply because bronn turn their back on someone during the fight at close range with a dagger for no good reason!!!!! That would be instant death. Fav fight is ser vardis vs bronn. Seemed very realistic to me. Also i wouldnt hate the show if they made the fight scenes 3 seconds long as it sometimes is in real life.

i try hard not to let unrealistic stuff from tv shows get to me in a way that would make me think the show is stupid. So I usually think most of the complaints are nitpicking. "How did she know stuff wasn't fix to the ground". Seriously? She rides dragons...
For a (short) while I completely stopped watching tv shows because I kept thinking on how hard the actor/actress was trying to act in front of a green blanket. That tiled the shit out of me and I was literally watching nothing like tv shows or movies because I couldn't watch them anymore lol the idea that nothing was real was stressing me out badly. Thank god it lasted no longer than 2-3 months and I set that idiotic view aside and now I'm able to watch stuff again without having to hyperanalyze everything.
Do I think double weielding swords is stupid? Definitely. But if it's working in the show, fine by me.

amazing how many of you think "all tv show mistakes are forgiven because lol dragons" is a real argument
where exactly do you guys draw the line? Mistakes in shawshank redemption dont matter because LOL andy the banker isnt a real guy?
every story in fiction contains elements that aren't real. The job of the tv show writers is to make it feel as believable as possible and to do that yes absolutely they have to ask themselves boring questions like "how does she know the thing isnt bolted to the ground". They really suck at that and criticising them for it is OK, yes even if the story has people flying around on dragons

He cited like Italy in a very specific timeframe... its a silly thing to do that many shows do, there was no need, I think they can showcase his skill in a much better way kind of like Bronn fought at the Vale but the scene simply felt cheap

What really starts to annoy the crap out of me is the slowness of the white walkers....
red circle is the position of the cave of 3 eyed raven. (Where the WWalkers are right now)
From Castle Black to Crasters Keep its 6 days footmarch or about ~ 100km distance
So currently White Walker Army are around 12-15 days away from reaching the Wall / Castle Black
Lets assume they come from far far north (half a year north of the Haunted Forest) and then for some reason wander all the way from Fist of the first man to Hardhome(East Coast) and back to the raven cave... which may have takem them additional 2-3 months in total.
So even if they had to march around almost 1 fucking year
Between Season 1 and Season 6 ---> five years have past
Where the fuck the White Walkers been wandering around all the other time ?

The white walkers can't cross the wall yet because it is enchanted, similar to how the cave of the three eyed raved was enchanted to prevent the white walkers from coming in. However, now that Bran is marked, I think the white walkers can find a way to get over the wall if he crosses back over it.

Hopefully she has always seemed very cunning and well trained by Ollena, this reminds me when Tywin says that he doesnt trust Cersei because she is not as smart as she thinks and she proved it once again, losing control of her other son too
I highly doubt Margaery is brainwashed, she is just adjusting. I feel like Cersei wont serve her vengeance, but Margaery will

Makes sense but what exactly would his angle be? Than again what's her angle. Only time shall tell.
Her angle is pretty clear, rule the 7 kingdoms through Tommen, however he s lost all control and she has to adjust and regain it.
His angle not sure, his intentions might be truthful i guess

^Hype sparrow has made his motive completely clear. He wants religion to be strong and to 'bring down an empire', which is what he told jaime. He is guided by a strict sense of religious morals apparently. I don't see any reason to doubt his sincerity since he is a fanatic.
Why does no one think Dany has the madness curse? She is about to become one of the biggest mass murderers with her invasion of westeros with dothraki and has already done some insane stuff, so it seems like she is well gone towards 'mad' to me. Her 'advisers' are deluding themselves or misguided if they think mongol invasions bring 'peace' to the realm. Would be interesting to see how it all pans out.

That would be confirmed if she lets the invasion hurt innocent ppl in random villages. She obviously did not allow that when she was going to Meeren. She killed all hostiles and helped everyone else so there s no clear reason to think that? Also if she was mad she would've slaughtered the whole city of Meeren after the Unsullied massacre.
You can't call her mad cause she will destroy all armies in front of her city now( well you can since war is something retarded overall but thats not the idea ).
Also I'm not quite sure the invasion will happen the way we think it will, since she has no fleet, I highly doubt she ll have all of her army going to Westeros

She tried not to but innocent people suffer all the same. "Saved me? Those men had already raped me, girl"

- She was raised by her abusive brother and lost her only child at birth
- Didn't feel any emotions when her brother got brutally murdered in front of her eyes
- She constantly sees strange visions and dreams that drastically affect her actions (mostly in the books but in the tv show there was some shit in the house of the undying)
- She seems pretty obsessed with fire like the mad king
I think danaerys' character is solidly set up for madness
since she has no fleet, I highly doubt she ll have all of her army going to Westeros

Episode 7 was okay. It seemed like they mostly introduced what's going to happen during the next 3 episodes for each of the storylines. Nothing major really got done in this episode.

yea not much really happened. that preview for next week looks pretty dam good though
This is really weird, the brotherhood would never slaughter people like that. What the fuck? They were protecting normal people, not massacring them
Also whats the point in bringing back The Hound, with a connection to the brotherhood and not Lady Stoneheart, hopefully they bring her back too, another popular fan theory that got confirmed though ( The Hound one ). At this rate the book will be full of already revealed plot twists, which kind of sux
Atmosphere was great allthough basically nothing really happend
Episode 6 and 7 were simply just made to build stuff up for the last 3 episodes of the season
U see what i did there with A8 ? He 4 bets and there we go insta jam A8 : ---booooom -- . hahahaha ( Krantz)

The brotherhood would have disintegrated/got high jacked and turned into some group of thieves. Happens all the time to political movements in real life. I thought the new character with the hound was interesting and a pretty good actor but they killed him off ... The point of bringing back the hound? It's obvious, so he can eat every fucking chicken in the riverlands.
For a second i thought they killed off arya at the end because those stab wounds would be so fatal LOL. Now for the next 3 episodes im thinking...
Ep8: No-oneBowl
Ep9: BastardBowl
Ep10: SparrowBowl?

Where the hell did she get that kind of money ?
Theory is that it was Jaqen disguised by Arya's face, who was actually testing the Waif to see if she really was Faceless. Shes just stupidly proven that shes not because she showed ego when she stabbed repeatedly and twisted the knife, the Faceless are not supposed to draw enjoyment from the deaths but the Waif did. He told her to make sure she doesnt suffer but the Waif is spiteful and made sure she would. She failed HER test. This Arya didn't talk like Arya, walked with hands behind her back like Jaqen does AND she didnt have needle which makes no sense. Also, he knew that Arya is no Faceless girl, but he taught her the skills needed so she can avenge her family and fulfil her destiny with a level head as opposed to rushing into it with only vengeance in her sights, and now hes booked her safe passage home because he cares for her. Also, earlier in the season when Arya is pulling the various faces off Jaqen before he makes her blind, she pulls off HER face. Therefore he doesnt need her to be dead to have her face, he is afterall a Master of the Faceless Men
Considering all facts this could be very well true
When watching I was really wondering myself how careless she was walking around, right after having betrayed the most dangerous assasin guild in the world

pretty sick theory
I personally thought she was having a dream or something in the moment because it all just seemed too stupid to actually be happening. I think this theory is probably true tbh

I wonder why anyone would care if this theory is true or not. There isn't much point to the story putting a gimmick like this in the show. It seems quite unlikely even if it makes sense. To me it is more likely that scriptwriters don't care about fatally stabbing someone then having them do cartwheels next episode, so i to me it will likely be that Arya somehow survives a fatal stab wound due to her valaryian steel plot armor and maybe she will find someone to heal her next episode before facing off against the waif in no-onebowl!

I have this theory from a german fantasy youtube channel called "Nerdkultur"
The guy so far was 100% correct on all his theories concerning every Episode from Season 6.
So chances are pretty high he is correct again.
+ It makes a lot of sense.
You can clearly see at the end of Episode 6 (or was it 5 ?) that Arya is in panic -> hiding in some sort of underground hiding-place preparing needle
She just betrayed the most deadly assains guild in the world and expects the worst
In this episode however you can see her walking carelessly open on the streets and just having a good time chilling , walking and enjoying the sun.
This is such an obvious contrast to what every halfway not braindamaged person would expect that i guess most viewers see someting fishy going on there.
Everything in that sceene just was so strange that it could very well be a dream.

I don't know about this theory, but the whole Arya part in the last episode seemed super off to me, considering the previous episode. Like she was carefree, as you've said she just betrayed the only people who can kill u in a matter of seconds out of nowhere, and she acts that way ?
There s something behind it, whole theory however seems dumb to me. If he helps Arya who seeks vengeance, why would he stop his helper who is egocentric as well ??? A man has no feelings, plus why wouldn't he just show himself and tell her she failed and she can fuck off or kill her?

I think its clear that Jaquen has always like Aria, maybe he is letting her go so she can carry on her vengance and then be free from that and become a true faceless

I'm thinking that Arya actually is the Waif and her mission is to kill her true identity. I don't think we have seen the Waif interact with anyone other than Arya and Jaquen so it seems plausible.

Kind of falls flat when you consider that shes walking around carrying a rather large bowl and looking utterly carefree given that she was essentially supposed to be in hiding. Few people on reddit pointed out that this extra has popped up a few times in Bravos too, so not too surprised. I'm still somewhat on board with the it wasn't Arya theory though.

the only theory which makes sense and i'm subscribing to is the one where cersei burns down kings landing / red keep or the sept in the last episode with wildfire. Bran envisioned it in episode 6, dany envisioned a burnt/snowing red keep in season 2, and it seems in line with cersei's character.

-Beric Dondarrion knows about the white walkers!
-Arya serves Frey Pie at the Twins in episode 10. She kills Walder Frey.
-Brienne returns oathkeeper to Jaime
-Episode 9 has two locations. Winterfell and Meeren (three dragons).
-Ramsey will be "meat for his hounds".
-Lancel does not die in episode 8.

That was actually my least favorite episode of the season minus the scenes the Hound was in.
The way the Arya storyline played out was pretty dumb I thought. Also thought Dany just all of a sudden flying to the top of the pyramid was really cheesy but more expected I guess.
Next episode is clearly going to be the one of the best of the season though. So I'm pumped for that

I liked the riverrun/mereen stuff. I knew Tyrion fucked up with those slavers. No One Bowl was underwhelming. Varys off to get alliances with Dorne i guess. My certainty of wildfire bbq @ the end just went up with cerseis 'rumours' line.

It was cool scene, when Arya used her experience being blind, to defeat the Waif.
Other than that, I think pretty shitty episode, one of the worst from the show. Next one probably is going to be best for the season.

Arya should have been dead in the first place. Five stabs in the abdomen in a medieval setting. I know its fantasy but come on. By the way it was said a few times that its a bad way to go throughout the seasons. It was a cheap way to make us think there was a possibilty for her to die.

Arya not dying reminded me of when the creators of The Walking Dead made us think Glenn was going to die, but he was saved by the body that was on top of him.
Anyway, I can't wait for next week's episode~

im glad they didnt do any plot twists with arya. Literature should be about the human condition, plot twists r cheap. They could make prodric payne azhor azzai and i would not care.
But yeah, the writings is very careless sometimes. Arya would get infected and die slowly and painfully if she didnt die quickly from that. Either that or she is very lucky.

kinda dissapointed that ramsey got fed to his dogs instead of a fair trial.
Also wun wun the giant doesn't even get a fucking tree branch to swing? He just charges into battle with nothing but his hands. If they decked out Wun-Wun in some giant size plate/chain male and gave him a mace the starks could have won the battle without the vale. Other than that, pretty good episode.
Super sad that wun-wun died.

I thought exactly the same thing. Just make the giant your armored tank and give him some big long weapon for AOE effect and its gg.
Also no idea why Rickon ran in a straight line. Its so much harder to hit a target that randomly changes directions in a zig-zag way.
there is a light at the end of the tunnel... (but sometimes the tunnel is long and deep as hell)
great episode finally (my dick moved)
agree with stroggoz with the giant should've been given extra thick armor plating with a big ass battle axe he could've wiped out 1/3 of Ramsey's army all by himself.

John snow seems to be a lot stronger than i thought he was. Guy is immortal and cannot die. Woulda been funny if ramsey shot him in the end instead of the giant.
Great episode, that long scene with Jon Snow fighting was probably one of the best in last years.
Though:
- why the hell the kid ran in a straight line
- wtf, you have the only giant in the world in your army and he's fighting bare-handed. Give him a fucking 4meter long scythe or w/e
- I really cant stand Emilias Clarke acting anymore, she's so bad ;(
wtf moments:
-apparently rickon has never seen apocalypto
-what everyone said about giant without any weapon
-jon snow the worst battle commander ever just charging in to likely suicide
-ramsay shooting his arrow at the giant at the end instead of hitting jon snow when he isnt paying attention
-why is daenarys riding a dragon straight at a ship that could shoot arrows at her? and why are the people on the ship not shooting arrows? so much unnecessary risk, just tell black dragon to go burn some shit.
this whole season has been a compilation of huge wtf writing moments, but there has been enough awesome shit happening that I've been ok looking past it.

Why are you guys praising this episode so hard? - felt so average. Good tv series try to usually stick out of cliches and make it more realistic ( yeah I get that it's a fantasy, but you know what I mean )
Littlefinger coming down with an army like that was so obvious .... I hoped that they wouldn't make it in a LoTR: Two Towers kind of way... sadly another disappointment
Rickon dying was so obvious as well, they were obviously just trying to cut loose ends. And the way that they killed him was just plainly stupid. Ramsay should've just chopped his head off before the battle, would've made tons of more sense.
Dialogues overall were dumb as fuck... Jon Snow asking the Red Priestess to not revive him if he dies? What is this ?? Trying to insert an insecure feeling into fans that Jon can actually die before the battle? Who are you kidding, so lame, so mediocre. Neither of them would waste time on such non sense
Khalessi suddenly has control over all three dragons, so there goes a huge concept out the door, won't even comment on the rest revolving around her story...
All in all, I'm surprised the show developed that way since there is no way GRRM's writing can be even nearly this terrible. They must've gone in a whole different direction.

Pretty cheesey and predictable, littlefinger arriving in the nick of time was shitty, I dont get why they didnt use the Giant better, It could have been the deciding factor for his 3k army beating his 6k army and then you can make littlefinger arrive for a last not so meaningful save a little beat how Tywin lannister arrived at Kingslanding siege.
On the bright side the battle scene was beyond amazing, one of the best I've seen it gives a perfect sense of chaos, headless corpses running on horses, people being taken out from blind angles constantly, also the spear and shield scene was good and when John was being smothered into the mud it gave an amazing feeling of helplessness I would have loved if he actually died there.

Rickon was supposed to be obvious, Ramsay has always been a marksman with the bow and as Sansa said he wouldnt let him live, it was a bait and John took it.

It felt to me more like John was looking for a kind of prophecy to hold on to.

Tyrion released the dragons, they set this up, also Drogon seemed to communicate with them telling him to go with him, it did make sense to me.
All in all, I'm surprised the show developed that way since there is no way GRRM's writing can be even nearly this terrible. They must've gone in a whole different direction.
But I agree this feels totally different how GRRM writes much more realistically and less cheesy lets just hope its just this bit and it doesnt turn into a shitty LotR

They could have mixed it up a bit. Maybe make it so Sansa isn't retarded and tells John about LF's reinforcements possibly arriving. Then John snow waits a bit until they arrive but they are hidden from the boltons. The boltons are lured out and then crushed very quickly by a cavalry encirclement+giant running in and breaking up their ranks with a massive club.

big ass crossbow + big ass arrow + big ass exploding arrow head would have been better imo. but yeah a giant club would do too.
lol a big ass crossbow would be the most difficult weapon to craft (especially by wildlings) and the least effective one,
i regular big ass bow will do too. i'm pretty sure they can make one.
he will kill what, 5 people per shot tops? with a club he would smash dozens per minute, actually I dont remember anybody depicting a giant with a crossbow.
Your idea is bad and you should feel bad
you forgot about the big ass exploding arrowhead. if the giant had that, he could shoot ramsay with that while rickon was running back. he would def be still alive.
Wanna guess how much the stars of GOT are making per episode?
Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen) and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) will all be paid north of $500,000 per episode for Season 7.
-Arya comes back to westeros and makes frey pies, serving them to freys/lannisters who start accusing each other of dissappearing freys. Arya then kills walder frey.
-Lynna mormont gives a speech, Northern lords express regret/sorrow that they didnt follow up. John is named DAKINGINDANORF
-LF wants to marry Sansa or marry her off to robin? They meet in the woods. He is all round pretty creepy. John snow interrupts their meeting when LF gives her a creepy kiss. Some mild shit goes down but not sure what.
-Davos goes apeshit @melisendre. John doesn't execute her.
-John + Sansa discuss both of their stupid decisions in last weeks episode and say they need to trust each other
-King tommen either gets pushed out of a window-by margery, or jumps out to escape a wildfire explosion. Maybe he jumps out in despair.
-Cersei burns down the sept with wildfire, the mountain kills Setpa Unella. This could set off a reaction and burn the red keep + maybe all of kings landing. All around massive deaths on all sides. Kevan dead, pycelle dead, Tyrells dead except queen of thorns who is not in KL. Faith are dead.
-Bran arrives @ wall, has a vision, its Ned Stark and Lynna, there's a baby. Then it goes back to John Snows face. R+L=J confirmed.
-Dany sets sail for westeros with her army at the very end of the episode. Tyrion tells her about how fucked shit is going to get if she invades with dothraki before this.
-varys makes alliances with dornish sand sneks.
-Possibly the BwB and hound get a scene, not sure.
-starts snowing in Kings Landing

The whole Giant and a bow idea is ridiculous...... just admit its stupid and drop it
rofl. ok.
but one last comment... imagine if the giant really had it. plus the exploding arrowhead. it's like if daenarys has 3 fighter planes, jon snow's army has this
Sansa sent a letter to LittleFinger, are we supposed to think he wrote back? In time? Maybe she was asking him to help ASAP, bla bla bla, and never got an answer back?
Pretty ridiculous how Jon Snow butchered this attack, they were getting completely raped, sad and frustrating
Overall i must say i start to slightly lose interest in GOT.
1 more Episode this season and then we have to wait another year .....
looks like we will get 7 Episodes in Season 7 and only 6 Episodes in Season 8
What made Breaking Bad so incredible good is that shit got more real every season and tension and excitement did grow to a point where u could barely handle it and then all did end with a giant orgasmic inferno firework bang.
perfect sex

GOT is different
For me it feels kinda like GOT will not end at all.
It builds up tension and excitement every season at a very slow pace and then unloads in a few very good emotional episodes
then it starts all over again.
Its like 3h Sex where you really love it for a long time but at some point you admit you start to want to do something else instead
U see what i did there with A8 ? He 4 bets and there we go insta jam A8 : ---booooom -- . hahahaha ( Krantz)
I read that the 5 main actors/actresses (Daenerys, Jon, Tyrion, Cersei, Jaime) got a raise from 160k/episode to 500k/episode for the remaining seasons of GOT. Must be nice . I wonder what it's like to be a dwarf and fucking ball.

Damn that episode was pimp.
I knew the sparrows were in for some hard ownage but man I didn't expect the Tyrells in total to get nailed. Lady Mormont is a badass. Only thing I was a little disappointed with is there was no white walker/nightking indications yet. Just more Westerosi conquest schemes.
Something that continually is interesting me came through a discussion with a friend of mine all the way back around season 3/4. We were discussing show theories and endings etc... and he came to me with this interesting thought: Regardless of the schemes and conquest of the people playing the "game of thrones", the entire show essentially revolves around Littlefinger vs Varys. I didn't think much of it at first, but if you look at the show's history from season 1 to now, you definitely can see how Littlefinger and Varys both went from their positions on the council to having massive amounts of influence and power. Specifically in this last episode, you see Littlefinger declaring officially his desire for the throne and Varys using his influence to direct the entire side of the world (Dany, Dorne, Lady Olenna), all for "the good of the realm". Not saying I agree 100% with this theory, but it's some good food for thought seeing how there doesn't seem to be any slowing down yet for these two.

Episode 10 was sick. I watched it twice.
Lyanna Mormont stole the show once again.
Season 7 is gonna be all about women running shit in the 7 Kingdoms.
Since there's only 7 episodes in Season 7, and we know there's only going to be 8 seasons, I wonder if Season 7 will be mostly about the war(s) with Daenerys versus everyone else. If that's the case, I assume Season 8 will be about the remaining humans versus the white walkers.

Time lines in this show in general can be hard to track. Fat boy finally gets to Maysterville, the Varys to Dorne and back makes sense bc he doesn't go back to mereen, he's riding with the Dorne queen lady on the ship in the scene (trying to recall this in the episode, actually doubting my memory but not gonna rewatch it). Jaime arriving in Kings Landing was lol though but I have no real perception of how far anyone is away from anyone else despite the map intro every time.
Anyways I really liked the scene where we found out Jon Snow is actually the son of Ned's sister not a bastard of Ned afterall and he made up that story to protect him (she was mumbling didn't hear why he needed protection, something about someone killing or hurting him)

2.30 and onwards explains it
Robert Baratheon swore to kill every Targaryen
Lyanna Stark knew about Roberts endless hate for Targaryen House
he would never have allowed Jon Snow to live

wait.. wasn't robert supposed to marry lyanna? why did she get preg by a targaryean?
i dont mind the perceived teleporting because it can be mostly explained by the TV show not showing events on a linear timeline but rather some events that already happened being shown after events that just happened
ie. the meeting with varys and dorne happens before mereen ever gets attacked and he's already on his way back home by the time the attack starts
I bet if you pull out a map of GoT world and calculate how long it takes to travel to different places you'll find some discrepancies in some of these teleportation acts thought
but at this point in the series with them being "off book" we have to throw those types of expectations into the muck imo
not having a genius that has spent years thinking of every detail to model each episode off was a big change
tbh they did better than I expected, it's definitely been hollywooded out though

He recently found that little toy she had near a fire pit, he didnt know what happened to her before that, didnt know how she died, etc. Now he knows she was burnt to death.

It's possible that they actually did get married, that could be the additional secret that she whispered to Ned. Rhaegar was already married, however some of the previous Targaryens have engaged in polygamy.
the bad thing is that this seems pretty straight forward from now on. Cersei and the lannisters will be dealt with by either john or danerys possibly both and the last remaining enemy are the zombies.

I think it really has happend enough stuff so far that the whole GOT story is ready to come to an end.
I furthermore still think there are enough sideplots to keep stuff interesting.
Arya Stark and her Deathlist
The Hound and the Mountain
The Red Woman
Euron Greyjoy
The Brotherhood Without Banners
Littlefinger
There is plenty of material to happen besides the obvious big battles that will come.
The big battles could indeed be straight forward
Daenerys and her army should be in Kings Landing by approx 1month travel time.
That would be a lot faster than Jon Snow could be at Kings Landing with a land army (they would need 1 month preperation at least +2month of travel )
So i guess it should be Dany vs everybody from the south in Season 7
After that Dany + Jon Snow vs White Walkers in Season 8

In what kind of scenario does westeros have any outs?
This.
Regarding the Varys stuff, the action in the last episode is most likely spread through at least a month in their universe. Thats only natural.
What I didn't understand is :
A) How did Daenerys get all of those ships ?
B) If those ships are Yara's why the fuck didn't she just take the Iron Thrones by herself ?
Unless they took the master's ships in which case, I've missed it in the show. Also I'm guessing the main problem will be the white walkers in the upcoming seasons so even small inner fights between clans would be quite interesting considering the white walkers pressure.

If you look at the sails of the ships some of them are Daenarys which she took from the Masters after they surrendered. She only burned like 2-3 of them. The others belong to House Tyrell/Highgarden, Dorne, and Yara/Theon which means this was a time jump of several months and their negotiations were successful.
Things will likely play out predictably from here on:
-Dany takes out Balon Greyjoy's brother and Cersei with help of Dorne/Olenna Tyrell
-Bran moves south of the wall, tells Jon who he really is
-Bran passing the wall lifts the spells it has and allows whitewalkers to pass south too
-whitewalkers kill lots of stuff til dragons stop them
-Dany reigns as queen but leaves no successor and after her death throne passes to Jon and his heirs
Some bolder predictions on things that may happen (these may contradict each other, just random predictions on shit that may go down for twist purposes):
-Arya kills Tyrion for completeness in destroying the Lannister line
-Dany dies in whitewalker battle, Jon becomes king
-Littlefinger kills Jon, manipulates his way to hand of queen under Dany
-Littlefinger kills Jon and marries Dany, becomes king
-Jon and Dany never discover they are related and marry
-white walkers kill at least one dragon and possibly even win the war
With the exception of Arya killing Tyrion (really think this happens, most likely twist to kill off one of the beloved characters, especially given how things usually turn out for the Hand of the king/queen) I don't think any of these things will happen, but just pointing out that despite the remaining events seeming obvious, there are many unpredictable paths the show could take and none would be disappointing.

I agree with your initial predictions except I think Jon and Dany will for sure get married and this will merge her army with the North. There really isn't anyone on the show that she could marry from Highgarden or Dorne at this point. I also think that Jon will tell her that they are both Targaryen since incest is one of that families traditions (to keep the bloodline pure). Littlefinger is definitely a wildcard, no clue what he will do. Most likely he will follow along until the threat of the Whitewalkers is eliminated, and everyone else is weakened, then make his power move.
Now im starting to really like her. It felt like justice. Its a character I can relate to now. Not showing up for her trial, just blowing the entire building up instead is so awesome that I started to laugh while watching it. She is impressive and really good at playing the game / setting people up.
I guess she and Jamie are more than smart enough to simply surrender facing Tyrion and the Mother of Dragons... (if nothing happens on their way to Kings Landing)
:D

I think its because shes not just making stupid emotional decisions anymore. But i used to literally despise her and wanted her to hurry up and die. I think some of my hate came from books since I always felt like Jamie would be so much cooler if it wasn't for her.
I wouldn't say I necessarily like her now but it's just weird not hating her lol.

Yeah, it's funny someone would find her more likeable now when it seems like the writers intention was the exact opposite - to make her, from this point on, a pure villain without any redeeming qualities. It looks set up in a way that even Jaime will turn against her.
- Not as smart or powerful as Tywin.
- Not as pretty or relevant as Margaery.
- Not as scary or intimidating as Ramsay.
- Not as cunning as Varys or Littlefinger.
She wasn't number one in any category, just an idiot under the delusion that she could possibly compete with the big dogs.
