my ep 6 predictions:
- party boys hit up the grave-train w/ some real wedding crashers/zombie movie antics (hiding behind a rock, fall in line pretending they are zombies, hound stubs his toe and goes "gently caress this ya oval office" and starts killing stuff, mayhem)
- dany at war table with council, she is distracted cuz she's worried about the party boys, specifically one party boy. "my dog likes him! but tehere's something he's not telling me...." etc. melisandre comes out of NOWHERE (prob a lil scene where she makes dumb npc guards look stupid) and says "save jon snow". the council start yelling and dany says nothing, real quietlike. then they stop and look at her all "don't you even think about it ;)"
- sam and gilly and their son in like the riverlands. sam is reading scrolls, real sweaty-like, gilly bouncing son on lap. some highwaymen try to rob them and sam goes "h-h-hey, f-f-uck off!" and a guy goes "where'd you learn to say that? rhaegar targaryen???" and sam is all "EUREKA"
- cersei meets with euron privately, (gregor is there too). cersei wants euron to raid iron bank ships and take gold/hostages. euron senses he's being pranked and tries to back out. cersei says she'll kill him and gregor stands near him or something, but euron calls her bluff. she then starts disrobing and it is heavily implied that euron and cersei gently caress. maybe a funny part where as they are kissing cersei goes "you are dismissed ser strong!!!" and gregor hurries out
- not looking good for los lonely boys. fighting their way out of the mosh pit, thoros loving dies and comes back as an undead. beric is like "gently caress BRO NOOOO" and slays him. then ROOOOOOOAAAAAR goes drogon and the other dragons are there too. dany flies in and smugly but sternly whisper shouts "dracarys". a path is cleared for the los lonely boys. the hound has a wight tied to his back and it's being all goofy, they're home free! but then the night king pulls out the HORN OF WINTER and blows BFOOOOOOOOOOO. turns out the horn of winter is like a real bad dog whistle for dragons, and they CRASH to the ground. dragon and his side bitch are able to get back to their senses, but his other side bitch gets overwhelmed by the wights. dany is like "NOOOO" and starts charging, and jon is like "STOP THERE'S NOTHING U CAN DO" then suddenly "HISSSSSSSSSS" the wights disperse and there's the loving night king ridiing a loving dracolich and he kills beric and burns down the loving wall.

ep 7:
- wall's got a big hole in it and wights are pouring through, they don't give a gently caress about party team. dany's acting like her dad and wants to bum rush the night king and jon is like we have to warn winterfell. she's like take my poo poo dragon, i'll use the good one to hold him off, and jon is hesitant but he does it and it's cool b/c
- CUT TO SAM. info dump about r+l = j and summerhall.
- arya and sansa get in a big rear end fight. arya kills sansa and LF is all "wait no! oh no you shouldn't have done that, that note was a joke note i use at parties!" and arya is like "ahhhh fuuuuckkkkk" and kills herself. interspersed with cuts to jon flying back as fast as he can.
- cersei straight up tells jaime she hosed euron adn they get in a big fight. jaime's like "i wish you were dead!" and cersei's like "guards!" a bunch of euron's goons come out and take jaime to the dungeons.
- jon arrives to winterfell and is like wtf??? brienne is ugly crying and everybody is standing around sansa and arya dead bodies. they part away and jon is like gently caress NO. he grabs LF by the throat and is liek I KNOW U HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS. tensions are high af. then bran wheels in. everybody's freaking out trying to explain to him what happened and he's all :| -> :| -> :). everyone's like wtf??? bran pulls out a glock 18 and shoots himself in the head. cut to night king bringing his head back from i just shot myself in the head position to normal position, smiling. dany and drogon are crash landed nearby, not in good shape.

Reading the unsullied thread, it's really sad seeing sooo many really loving good theories as to what is gonna happen.

Like some people saying Beric will die and become the wight and that was the whole reason why the Lord of Light kept bringing him back, so he could die at the right point. This would definitely be in GRRM's style if Beric wasn't dead for realsies in the book.

Or the Hound dieing and Beric giving his life to bring him back, fueling TPTWP theories (fanservicy of the good type)

Or another person saying that Missandei will betray Daenerys during the pit meeting for Grey Worm's sake (betrayal for love, even though the 3 betrayal prophecy was cut from the show).

What we are really gonna get is such a :flaccid: in comparison.

COACH TOTORO SAY REFEREE CAN BANISH WHISTLE TO LAND OF WIND AND GHOSTS!
My Episode 6 Predictions:
-We get a long shot of the Jon's group plodding out in to the Wilds beyond the Wall. After going 10 miles or so, they all realize that they forgot their hats and have to go back.
-The Hound calls Jon a oval office because his sword has a name. When it's pointed out that Longclaw is the Mormont family blade and was named many generations ago, Clegane turns and tells Jorah that his entire family were cunts. Jorah just sort of nods in agreement.
-Arya makes a very life-like carving of Tormund's head, puts it on a stick and spends a bunch of time trying to freak out Brienne at Winterfell. Littlefinger watches and continues to smile in that way that would make you want to Taser him if you ever met him in real life.
-Sansa rolls her eyes so far up in to her head they get stuck and Podrick has to smack them back down.
-Jaime tells Bronn that Cersei is pregnant, Bronn tells Jaime to stop loving his goddamned sister. Jaime looks at him in shock and Bronn tells him that yes, the entire continent already knows and that there are at least three very popular tavern songs about it so stop loving your goddamned sister.
-Jaime does not, in fact, stop loving his sister.
-We get a shot of Dany arguing with her advisors at Dragonstone about their next step. Finally Daenerys puts a stop to the argument and says that she's making a decision as their Queen and orders Chinese, even though Tyrion and Varys wanted Thai.
-Missandei gets Tyrion's order wrong on purpose.
-Later Dany sneaks off to a secret cave underneath the castle with Drogon and we find out that her dragons are actually just a bunch of cats in a large wooden frame covered by fabric. This is why we never see cats, Daenerys kidnapped them all.
-Archmaester Marwyn wanders around the Citadel looking for Sam, and realizes that he's left. He then goes and looks through the archives, and finds out that Sam took the only scroll that had instructions on how to poop. He shakes his fist in geriatric rage.
-Sam and Gilly travel to Winterfell hoping to talk to Jon but are told that he's gone. With nothing else to do, Sam helps Arya mess with Brienne by making a really good wig and fake beard for her carving.
-Jaime continues to gently caress his sister.

Nope. Arya will go off on Sansa, who then goes off on her until the male protagonist in Winterfell stops their bickering because he is all knowing.

Wife and I were discussing the lightning fast pacing when we watched last night, but the fact is there are just no locations left. We only have what, 4 locations? Sam just left oldtown so we can assume he's heading to winterfell. Once Jon reunites with Dany after heading north we will be down to 3. Once Dany decides to head north to fight the WW we'll be down to 2 major locations, north and south. IMO they are still actually stretching with extra battles and such. Yeah they are fun to watch but there's not much story to advance. Fighting the WW, Jon's parentage, dealing with Cersei. Are there any other major plot points left? It's not surprising it feels fast.

I hope it ends like the new WHAS and just has a 20 minute montage of everyone doing great.
