Game Of Thrones- News & Spoilers

I was watching on Sky Atlantic, as the HBO feed was looping, at least at the start of the episode. I think it was fixed later, but since Sky Atlantic has commercials, I would have popped into the episode already about 15 minutes ahead. Sky Atlantic failed about 1 hour into the episode, then it came back as audio only, so I already know what happened ultimately.
 
Up here in the 'north', I use a subbed sat service for any back up I may need. HBO always works :)

I think 'north' could be a big hint if only I read Laser's last report... haaaa
I luv it :)
 
in the end Jamie will kill his sister.
The Hound and Arya will take care of that un-dead guard (I think he is the Mountain) Prolly the Hound's brother somewhere all the lines.
Jon Snow will be king, but his love the Dragon Mother, will die with her last dragon.

Sasha will be warden of the North... first for a woman and she will marry Terean (again) the short guy and have kids with blood from frigging everywhere ! :)
Except insentious blood, cause that monarchy will be dead... Except Jamie, he prolly will ride his horse till he falls in the arms of that tall woman knight gal and live happily ever after :)



so far Jamie has evil queen and prolly that will come to death for someone.
Hound and Arya did get the Mountain.
Jon Snow looked concerned.
Aryal felt first hand the Mother of Dragon's wrath.
Aryal may be the instigator in the Mother's death and her dragon.
Afterall... Aryal is our top assasign, she did kill that dead guy !! And she did ride away on that Pale horse... somewhat blood stained but a little pale :eek:
 
I caught it on Kodi around 9:20 pm (et), so the prediction of a mad queen was right. Cant believe there is only one episode left :( , I would have loved to see Sersi die more gruesome but i guess that is me. As a avid historian geek, in ancient civilizations (empires) during wars for the most parts would burn down cities, rape, pillage and would not take any prisoners. I would spread fear and obedience. They did kill 2 of her children ( dragons) and others so I do understand her frustrations, I think that Jon Snow acts very wimpy at times but it is what it is. Cant wait for next week, then probably in a month i would do a GOT marathon from the beginning just in case i miss anything.
 
I watch the reactions to the episodes on you tube, as the over-reactions are just as entertaining as the show itself. Lots of hard-core reviewers aren't very happy. For me, I love the spectacle more than the story line, as I kind of expect anything I want to happen to not happen with this show. I think its more of who is actually the worse woman, the cold-blooded assassin that lost her soul, or the operator of a weapon of a mass destruction who had lost everything of value to her, except a dragon.

Can't wait till next week to see how they wind this down. I really don't care who sits on the Iron Throne, to be honest. Maybe Jon goes north in disgust, and the love sick Dany flies up to be with him, but toasting Sansa and Winterfell on the way, leaving the kingdom to Gendry.

"We’ve all seen the trailer by now. The hype machine and anticipation for this season is off the charts. April 14th is circled on everyone’s calendar to the point that it should be recognized as a National Holiday. Twitter thumbs will be stretched, reddit threads will be book marked, and people around the world will have goblets of wine ready not because we are alcoholics, but because we are just getting in the GoT spirit.
We have everything we and I can promise you one thing to the Lady from Tarth…we won’t need therapy. Not at this point. We have been through everything. The Red Wedding, Ygritte right in front of Jon Snow, that big lovable goof Hodor, SHIREEN GETTING BURNED AT THE STAKE. Everyone who has watched 67 episodes of Game Of Thrones has been through fire and ice. We are basically iron-born now. We’ve seen Jon Snow die once, I think we can do it again. We are ready for anything.
We are ready for blood though. Blood thirsty. And with that said let’s get ready for the month ahead with the most satisfying deaths in Game of Thrones history"...! :cool:

The ending truly does not make any sense, meaning that Jon Snow being the chosen did not mean anything the whole time, the unsully where just going to let Tyrion and Jon Snow live with just a pad in the back, the Leaders were going to let Winterfell be independent but not themselves? too many holes in this ending.

The worse endings in TV history for me were Penny Dreadful and Lost, but this one came close. I did not expect a happy ending but this is neither shocking nor Logical, that being said it is the body of work by the series is one of the best, hope the books do a better job!!
 
To be honest, I was ok with the ending but the show runners should have taken the money to make about 5 more episodes to flesh things out, or to generate other possible options that fans could have speculated on. Even if Jon Snow might have been the rightful heir to the throne, he did nothing to really earn it, besides being born. If anyone deserved it, it was Daenerys, but as we've seen in history, its pretty rare for conquerors to be great rulers. I think she would have been the most happiest in her life just going town-to-town burning stuff.

As far as the end, and Grey Worm getting vengeance for his queen dying, its was great that he actually bent to the will of the lords of Westeros, knowing that if he hadn't, he might not have gotten his people out of there and having to fight against recent allies. Beyond that, the council was a farce...Davos was right, how does he (and Samwell, Brienne and Arya, honestly) get a vote? Best line.... "Sit down, Uncle". I'm sure that this 'government' wouldn't hold as ambitious people will arise, but in all, its better than just killing off the queen and not getting the irony of Jon Snow taking on the black, again. How many guys are left in the Nights watch anyway, lol.
 
Everyone was warned that the ending would not be happy, and I didnt expect a happy ending but one that made sense. In the last three episodes it had three different villains, yep first the Night King, then Ceresei and then Daenerys. Talk about whiplash, then again. Then other Lords in the council being cool with the North being their own independent and not their was laughable. when the dragon melted the iron throne made a lot of people scratch their heads, how did Dragon know about the iron throne? did he have pictures? Again is all fantasy something about the writing this season was not up to par with the writing from previous seasons. Like i said before hopefully the book has a better plot ending!!

Anyways what happen to Ellaria Sands?
 
The word I heard was "bittersweet". In the end, it was a big Stark win, but Dany did the most to 'earn' it. I get why the North probably earned their independence as they did save the rest of the continent, albeit with help from a part of the Dothraki and the Unsullied who helped long enough for Arya to rocket over white walkers. I thought Daenerys army was decimated... but I guess they had a lot of them in reserve, south, for what ever reason). Dorne and the Iron Islands... what do they have in value to the throne?

As far as Drogon, maybe Dany had sent her thoughts through the psychic connection, and Drogon knows to fly to find Kinvara to wake up his mom. I don't know about Eliaria, the same with Septa Unella, shame, shame, may have had a heart attack after seeing the Mountain, over and over again.
 
Could be but too many assumptions and unanswered questions, too rushed and with the lack of continuity from the writing from the previous seasons. I would have been okay with Jon Snow being chosen king hell even if Cersei won but the ending seemed out of line with the storyline. Bram even said that he was no longer a Stark and did not want to be King of the North, the pledge from the dothraki to be the blood riders for Dany which means they would die for her and yet they just "went away" after her death, If Arya did not go to Kingslanding after killing the Night King it would not have changed the story one bit. So many holes I can go on and on. Again i'm okay with the ending but common on :) by the way Daarios and his army would be okay also I doubt it. The actress Emilia Clark did not like the ending (obvious reasons) and the actor who played Bram first thought it was joke when he first read the script. Many feel it was a joke after watching the ending but it is what it is. On to the next best TV show!!!
 
I heard that Arya had to go to Kings Landing, for POV for the novels. The 'list' and revenge arc still had yet to be totally resolved, but it all ended after The Hound sent her away. Its funny that Bran saying he didn't want to be Lord of Winterfell may have thrown off a lot of people thinking he wasn't willing to be in a bigger position... but even now, he really doesn't have to do anything as Tyrion will be a very active Hand.

I think too many people got invested in their opinions on who should have been on the throne at the end, and in reality... no one is... Bran has his portable 'throne', and the Iron Thone is melted, lol. I'd rather this ending, than wondering if Tony Soprano got whacked in the diner, or seeing the Seinfeld cast in jail.
