  • I had heard lady stoneheart will not be appearing

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

  • If all of what you say is true....then you will have the books contradicting the show. And I know he is supposed to write 2 more 1500 page novels.

    Is he going to retailor the books to fit the TV show storylines, or what?

  • The basic story is the same. I'm sure he'll elaborate upon it appropriately. It does not appear as though Martin is particularly motivated to complete his story.

    Is it? Stannis was killed in the show, not in the books, not yet anyway. That is a very basic element of the story.

  • They didn't show stannis dying which is suspicious since they have not shied away from gruesome deaths.

    I said this at the time. Unless you see someone actually croaking, don't be sure. Jon Snow will almost certainly be back in some capacity. They've teased melisandre who has a special interest in him and the ability (in her religion) to bring people back from the dead, as thoros of myr has done with beric dondarrion multiple times and 'lady stoneheart' (though not shown in the tv show).

  • Were you 'tittalated' by melisandre last night, gip?

    I am one of those guys that does not watch the show until it comes out with the DVD sets. In other words, I did not see Season 5 until just last month....only weeks before the new season started. I shouldn't do it that way, I should start watching the new season now.

  • I managed to stay spoiler free until watching it last night. So much going on, so many story lines progressing finally.

  • This post is dark and full of spoilers...

    So the worst kept secret was finally revealed and Jon Snow is back from the dead. I'm a little disappointed in the biology aspect - the guy has stab wounds and presumably holes in his lungs, and yet when he comes back to life he takes a big old breath.

     

    Anyway, he's back, the wildings have helped restore order, and pretty soon Sansa will end up there with Jon and all will be good. Right? Because that's how these things always work out in GoT...

     

    Tyrion freed the dragons, setting him up to ride one of them (in line with his hypothesised Targaryan ancestry). Ramsay killed his dad, and fed fat walder and the baby to the dogs, so is now technically Lord Bolton of Winterfell. I have no idea what's going on there, with the Karstarks as well, but it's interesting. And maybe we'll find out what Bran is doing...but probably not.

    What you talking about Hodor?

  • I'm enjoying this show less and less. They travel from one character to the next too often just to drag the series on.

  • Saw that. Brilliant.

  • Was glad to see that sadistic fucker get eaten by his dogs.

    Cersei...holy fuck:

  • I feel cheated. Not by the outcomes, because they were all awesome, but because basically everything the series has been leading to has happened in the last two episodes, more or less:

     

    Starks back in winterfell, with the aid of house arryn - finally they did something useful - since the red wedding

    Arya killing walder frey - since the red wedding

    Ramsay being eaten by his dogs - shrtly after the red wedding

    Danaerys makes a pact with a couple of houses and starts the invasion - since basically the beginning

    Dorne finally starts doing something in revenge against the lannisters - since the eye smooshing

    R+L=J - basically since the beginning

    High Sparrow killed - not that long, but the storyline felt like it was lasting forever

    Uncle Benjen is back. Sort of. - since about episode 2

    And finally, dragons being used in battle. - since we saw the eggs

     

    So yes, excellent, we're finally pulling things together, and I can't wait for next year. But it's like they just decided to make all the fans happy by cramming as much of everything in to the final couple of hours of the season.
