I wonder how greyscale is going to play into things now. It looked Jorah was going to take Jon Con's place as the carrier who brings it to Westeros, but now?

I think they set him up with it so they could write him off. They probably gave it to him so he'd sacrifice himself for love but there wasn't a good opportunity for such a big character death. Kill off all the side characters you want but you have to make a big deal for the Season 1 Episode 1 characters. My money's on him going to Braavos to die in the House of Black and White.

If that's how that poo poo works, I dunno.

I'm looking forward to the Jon Snow shaking hands montage as they wrap up all the small houses joining him in like 5 minutes.

Did the actor himself actually leave and that's what is happening as far as the plot is concerned? I hope not. I think that greyscale is one of those mysteries that GRRM actually has an idea and a plan about and I'd like to see what the answer is even if I never get to read it. I was hoping that his leaving might allow us to see something like Old Volantis or that he might travel to Old Town for help or travel to the far east. I guess that scenes with Jorah alone walking around looking for a cure might not be so interesting so maybe he'll just pop back in at the end of the season, announce his cure, give the secret, and then sacrifice himself.

LeftistMuslimObama posted:maybe he goes home to bear island and spreads it that way? Considering House Mormont is one of the ones named when Sansa's talking about recruiting the smaller houses in the north... Gonna be really awkward when Jon and Sansa go to recruit them if/when they recognize Longclaw, assuming they weren't informed already that it was given to Jon and why.

Sansa chastising Littlefinger about Ramsay was the most amateurishly written scene in the show's history, but Sophie Turner's acting was great in spite of it (such a trooper) so it's pretty much a wash. The episode's ending was as ridiculous as it was epic, time traveling mind control is always a great plot device in genre fiction and Bran Stark is the Antichrist. All in all very much worth the twenty-year wait since Hodor was first introduced on the page.

Greyscale Grey ask ale Gary, ask for more ale That is, Bran fucks up Gary Targaryen through some bad ale, causes this disease in another one of his goofy time-flexible vision quests. Dunno who Gary Targaryen is though.

I like how it looks like the entire ironborn population deserts with Yara leaving euron with two dozen thugs on a beach, and his immediate plan is to build a fleet of a thousand ships on a tree-less island like he's loving agamemnon

I loved the line "if you didnt knew who Ramsay was, you are an idiot. if you knew, you are my enemy" cause I remember using this exact argument against someone in the other thread that was defending that LF didint knew that Ramsay was a crazy psycho Actually that whole scene was almost like the show writers were apologizing in screen for Sansa (and the audience) for the absurd bullshit that this plot was Among all the crap they changed and messed up, Sansa marrying Ramsay was for me the absolute worst one Elias_Maluco fucked around with this message at 18:46 on May 24, 2016 |

Obviously he'll go to Oldtown in search of a cure, as the Maesters are his best bet. There he will meet Gilly, who can pass on his father's message to join the Watch. They didn't do that in the show, did they...

Elias_Maluco posted:Actually that whole scene was almost like the show writers were apologizing in screen for Sansa (and the audience) for the absurd bullshit that this plot was I got that sense as well. I think that Sansa marrying Ramsey was horrible and I am sorry that a character had to go through it but there are many characters who go through horrible things they don't deserve on the show. Maybe there will be a grand master plan that Littlefinger unveils but right now the lack of a clear motive for his actions are what make me feel they messed up. He gives Ramsey Sansa, cannot be sure she will be safe, and then later goes to war to protect her now that she has escaped? What does he gain? Nothing from Ramsey. Nothing from Sansa. Maybe a motive to go to war? Littlefinger's motivations in the book are not clear, either so who knows. I think that she is pregnant, too.

Except if they can come up with some really clever machinations to explain why (and I doubt they will), its completely gratuitous and the only reason I can think for this is that they wanted to shock the audience with some gruesome rape of a likable character.

I figured that Littlefinger gave her to the Boltons because it would solidify the North's alliance with the Southron kingdoms, letting Baelish operate like he used to playing everyone against each other. Without the Starks for legitimacy the North could easily spiral into a new war with the south andohgodwhyamIdefendingthisshit?

Hodor could have been Dunk reborn had it not been for Bran melting his mind, dude was over 7 feet tall, as strong as an ox and hung like stallion, Bran basically deprived this man from the possibility of becoming a goddamn rockstar. Bran is a oval office.

I just finished The Game of Thrones. How the gently caress is it still not winter? From the very beginning they keep saying, "it's going to be winter soon", and the book ends like a year later, and they're all like, "seriously, any day now. It's almost winter."
