GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

Now, I could be wrong. But Rickon will be integral to completely usurp the Bolton's hold on the North. Short of killing them... which could still totally happen.

Fuck if I know. I think we're just aligning the book with the show now.

Do they even have any reason to suspect Rickon is still alive in the show? If they assume Bran and Rickon are dead, then Sansa is the heir of House Stark, and conveniently, she's in Winterfell married to Ramsay.

I do think that GRRM, to his credit, does a pretty damn good job of portraying pagan attitudes to the mystical. It does help a lot that magic does exist in westeros. But you've got the puritanical zealots being puritanical zealots. You've got Mel and her 3/4 conman bullshit 1/4 maybe she does see visions and her 100% cooter monster, you've got A Man and his strange, morbid, zen "whatever happens happens. Vala Morghulis. Lets kill some bitches" philanthropy. And of course you've got Stannis being the Scion of Summer. Which is a nice weft, since Stannis brother used to take all six inches of the Knight of Flowers!

I think Davos would have shown more signs internal conflict when she asked him to carve her a doe if he knew that Stannis sacrificing Shireen was a forgone conclusion. He's not the stoic that Roose Bolton is.

I've seen a lot worse cgi than the takeoff scene before, it is a very difficult scene to shoot, so I'll cut them some slack. But both times, in the crypt and last night's episode when the dragon roasts them and bites them in half have made me giggle with glee because really?, what nerd doesn't want their own pet dragon to do their bidding.

Sand vipers been really underwhelming so far this season. It seems like the Dorne stuff has come to an end and if they don't actually do something next episode they were the biggest waste of screen time on the show even if they did bring us the greatest pair of tits so far in the show. I thought maybe they wanted to keep bronn alive because they needed his help to devise an escape plan, but it may just be a gratuitous tit shot and they saved the life of a man whom they should despise and have no reason to save. Then again it seems like all those people got a happy ending so maybe the sand vipers act out on their own and someone dies.

The cutaway shots to the army nearing it's breaking point was important. The only argument I'd accept is maybe there's still people not afraid enough of Mel (Since they aren't showing her routine burnings) to jump forward and try to stop the thing. It was a little too rushed imo, but really not unexpected. Azor's story is very similar.

As for Human nature, we still exploit and kill kids and even worse in the name of superstition, so the folks whining about the poor kid on fire might want to think about where their cheap clothes and chocolates comes from.

China? Do they burn Chinese children out of desperation?

I did not know that. That only makes the chocolate better.

You're allowed 1 child and the rest are burned on chinese new year

Do you pick, or does The Party? I bet the Party does.

That's completely unamerican. There should be a law.

Now that the weak have been culled it's cool to be on Team Stannis again.

And fuck his wife for breaking like that. Bitch wanted to burn everyone else. Wasn't her brother one of the first?

The confectioners should get to choose.

Yep her brother. She drank that kool-aid as long as it was someone else. IMO the Mannis should've burned her too

No, I went back and looked at all the references to the disease I the book and asked more knowledgble readers about it as well you salty fuck.

Nobody in the book really knows how grayscale is transferred. You have people scared to even talk to someone that might be infected and others basically ignoring it. You also have characters with it interacting constantly with other characters and it not spreading. If you were actually talking to knowledgeable book readers, they would tell you that.

So basically, stop talking to fucking astrochuk level book readers.

This. Hate him all you want but other than Danayris magically being the rally person in Westeros in a very short time, Stannis is their only hope.

And yet he is going to south to further his bid for the Iron Throne, killing more of his men and more Northmen in the process. Men who will be needed for what is to come. He's worse than the other noblemen in the Five Kingdoms; he knows the threat and has cast aside what needs to be done for his own desire. The only reason he listens to Mel at all is because what she's telling him dovetails with his ambition and his sense of what is right and just (him succeeding Robert). The minute her words begin to conflict with that, he'll cast her aside and carry on.

Danayris lol

I've always carried Stannis' banner and I still intend to. I think he'll get killed though. Bitch ain't gonna make it.
