Game Of Thrones (spoilers)

[Shwafta]

I cringed but only because I view her as being so young still in the show. You almost think it’s your family having watched her from that little sister perspective for 7 years. She’s at least 21 and a bit on the wild side IRL.

The things we do for love.

Based on that crypt trailer before the season, I'm sure we can expect something like that

As for what's fair game, I think anything mentioned in the "next week preview" should be spoilered because, for example, I don't watch those bc I don't wanna know what might happen next week.

not sure how I feel about the theory where

Spoiler: spoiled spoils

they raise the dead from the Winterfell crypts

Spoiler

dont worry Sam, Tyrion, prego gilly & that little girl wit the scars will save them.

The thread title specifically says spoilers, so stuff that happened has to be fair game without tags.
The question is where theories fit. Speculation is part of the fun. OTOH some people don't even want to hear what might happen. It looks like people have been using their judgment, and maybe being a little more careful than necessary but there's no harm in that.

that's was exactly my thinking

She's 22. That's what I kept reminding myself of. If she didn't look so young I probably would go HEY cool she's all grown up. But she still looks like a teenager and it doesnt help that Gendry looks in his 30s

When the director/write starts to cry, you know shit's about to go down

Double post but, here are my questions that need to be solved at some point soon:

Spoiler

1) Melisandre said she will return to westeros to die with varys. What does this mean? Will it be happening soon, and be important for the Winterfell battle?
2) Is it possible for this battle to end with a night king victory? This is GoT after all
3) Someone pointed out that the night king can't be seen or heard in the cliffhanger. Will he be there, or will he be headed elsewhere to gather more men?
If this is true, I can see Wight Cersei (Night Queen) and the Night King coming, and then Tyrion or Jaime will kill her Wight form. THAT would be an insane twist, as well.

4) If Bran dies... does the world end?

i find it interesting that people care so much about Arya but nobody blinked an eye at Margeary and Tommen

Does anyone else think that Dany was sounding out Sansa to become Hand until Sansa slapped her down on the Free North?

Probably not. I don't see Varys getting killed in Winterfell, they probably die of old age somewhere in King's Landing much later on after all the chaos.
2) Is it possible for this battle to end with a night king victory? This is GoT after all
Possibly, but then you have all the building of characters all for naught. I also don't see the Night King's post battle life taking up three episodes, 2 of which are 80 minutes. I don't see it happening.
3) Someone pointed out that the night king can't be seen or heard in the cliffhanger. Will he be there, or will he be headed elsewhere to gather more men?

Cliffhanger didn't want to give away too much from the fight, as it would ruin the fight. He may just show up late to fuck shit up and freeze all the troops once they're out on the field, then fly in and swoop up Bran.
4) If Bran dies... does the world end?
I don't think so, as they brought up using Bran as bait, and how killing him would just erase all of humanity's history from that world. The memories of the three eyed raven seeing everything (past/present) would be erased, thus all history of humanity forgotten. Presumably they (white walkers) would destroy all books as well.

I think she loves Jon so she was trying to cut the tension with his sister as per Jorah's request. He also was backing up Tyrion as hand so I dont see that as the motive for the conversation. But whats kind of funny is i also see Sansa as being more power hungry than Dany, and Dany clearly has more of a "right" to the power.

I don't remember what it was like on the Interwebz but I also thought "Is he old enough? Shooting that scene must have been super awkward especially since that actress is smoking hot".
I think this might be more of a thing since Arya is a bigger character we've known since the beginning.

Daenerys was surprised and pissed that Sansa went against her apparent angle of judgement vs Jamie, and then surprised again when Jon didn’t back her up, so that conversation seemed more a chance to size up Sansa & clear the air/do a bit of a reset, which was happening with the graciousness from each, until the subject of the North came up. At that point Sansa tipped her hand that she’s a bigger power player than Daenerys realized. Sansa learned a lot from Littlefinger.

Eta- also what will be interesting is to see the expression from Sansa when she finds out Jon is heir since she even told him not to forget his duty to his family. Little did she know that’d be a double-edged bit of wisdom.

My brother mentioned Howland Reed and how he might show up to save the day. He’s the only living person who can backup Jons story.

Finally got caught up on the show last night - was travelling during the first two episodes. Nice to be back in this thread (not to mention like half the internet).
