Does Bran know that he will break the walls magic, does anyone know that prophecy or is that just something 'we' know?

I think that """"""""""""""""""""""""the mark""""""""""""""""""""""""""" was something they pulled out of their rear end to force the plot to move on and will not have any impact nor be mentioned ever again. The wall will probably come down somehow else.

I think he knows that he broke the cave magic but maybe doesn't think of the wall as magic? I hope that doesn't turn out to be a thing though because the scene in this episode did nothing at all to make it seem like him being on one side of the wall vs the other is a big deal.

What my imagination just can't come up with is a way in which Bran would be useful at all in the fight against the Night's King. Unless witheld from the audience, he didn't gain any valuable information from Raven that the other characters didn't find out on their own via trial and error or by reading a book He doesn't seem to have any special sorcery power outside of warging and seeing the past. Some theories said the "you will fly" thing meant he would warg into a dragon and control him during the fight, but that makes sense in the books were Dany can't control the Dragons and at best can bond only to one, but in the show they are puppies. I guess if he could learn how to warg into multiple things at once then it would be useful to warg into a bunch of zombies and have them sabotaging the army from the inside.

He's gonna warg into the ice dragon, not one of Dany's dragons.

I wish Bran would just fall off the wall and be gone for good, but I'm assuming he hasn't seen his last vision and will play some part as a deus ex machina yet.

I am rolling my eyes at Euron a bit. "Oh no, they stole my best ships" *Looks at barren island without a single tree on it* "OK, we will build a new fleet!" *Shows up with greatest fleet in world ten minutes later*

That has to happen after Jon fucks Dany though, otherwise I don't think he'd gently caress his aunt knowingly. If he's told afterwards he'll probably just be like "well that ship has sailed so..."

Has Bran ever done anything interesting on the show? I can't even remember what he's done other than act as a vessel for flashbacks and that goofy skeleton fireball fight where Meera's brother got comedy stabbed to death. I guess he did some ruling in Winterfell before Ramsay took over? Warging has been basically pointless on the show and all we have are vague theories of him taking over the zombie army or an ice dragon or something. Maybe he'll prove me wrong by taking control of a zombie giant or something, but I pretty much just tune out when his scenes come on.

Same effect on the overall plot, no garbage scenes for the rest of the show. e: no garbage scenes with Bran I mean, gotta be more specific than that on second thought

That bran scene really was terrible. This show has a bad habit of nothing scenes just to establish location, as if moving people about is an actual story.

Actually it wouldn't have had the same effect because there wouldn't have been the paranoia he would say something, leading to the assassin who was using Tyrion's dagger for reasons I'm still not sure of, leading to the House Stark vendetta against the Lannisters, etc. He should have been killed by the fever or whatever after the failed assassination. That would've fit well with the bleak nature of the show too.

The only redeeming part of that scene is that you know grrm was probably really proud of that "twist" with the name and is pissed that the show revealed it first.

skasion posted:I like that Jaime actually points out how terrible and stupid the strategic situation is at this point though it doesn't give me any hope that they will write it to make sense at all. this was funny cuz loving up strategically hasn't ever mattered for the lannisters on the show (or in the books). i mean if we're going to be tactically realistic - dany wins the second she lands because her army has to be bigger than everyone else combined. she could just starve out king's landing. love to see what dumb poo poo allows cersei to keep power for any time at all.

Suddenly Mereen and Quarth are going to be dragged in front of cersie and she rapes and kills one and then shoots the other with an arrow in front of Danny.

What bothers me most in this stupid show is how people who walk around what looks like the equivalent of northern Greenland don't wear scarves or even a hood or cap. They're bundled up in furs but then leave their neck and face totally exposed to snowstorms and stuff.

They may not reveal that Joffrey hired the assassin because that "reveal" was poo poo and people stopped caring about Joffrey a long time ago.
