Because honestly most of these characters suck, looking back

The books have a shitton more detail on stuff that actually happens in the north. Stannis sets off on a carefully managed campaign, rallies the local tribesmen and Stark loyalists and sets up a trap outside of Winterfel instead of going on a half-cocked suicide run. The Boltons are unable to get anything done because they've gathered all the northern lords in Winterfel, and their men keep getting murdered when nobody's looking because everybody's figured out that they were behind the Red Wedding, and they don't have access to fire ninjas. Jon also gets ganked for betraying the Night's Watch instead of failure to be sufficiently racist.

The showdown between Stannis and the Boltons hasn't actually happened yet, but it's pretty heavily foreshadowed that he'll live at least until the zombie army reaches Winterfel.

He was great. Too bad they decided that moustache-twirling cartoon character Ramsay would make a better antagonist for the North

*Summons fantasy nerd chud. Nose bleeds.* Uhh actually since they were married and it was medieval times or equivalent it couldn't be considered rape since marital rape wasn't a thing. Sure, it was aggressive sexual assault but not rape per se

I just hope there's a "Sansa's pregnant with Baby Bolton" plotline this season. Or that Arya stabs Sansa for taking Gendry away from her because that's totally gonna be a thing.

Arya is going to leave Winterfell to fulfill her DESTINY and kill Cersei because that's the laziest character development story arc I can think of and therefore is what will happen in the show.

There've been a bunch of leaks that were dumb enough to be believable, but nothing confirmed. The only one I remember off-hand is someone saying there'll be scenes in the Red Keep of Cersei torturing Daenerys, and later Tyrion will tell Bronn that he's the new lord of Highgarden.

Uh... Kupo?

Tyrion keeps saying "whatever they offer you I'll double it" and keep pointing out the lannisters owe him a castle and it's NOT gonna be the Twins?

The spoiler was for the Twins. The only ones I've found are the ones that have been posted in this thread already, but aren't confirmed (so probably bullshit).

Off the top of my head:

1. Kelly C and John have a baby who "wins" the game of thrones
2. Kelly C dies and gets poop thrown on her and is strapped to the Red Keep's walls
3. An elephant steps on some people

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Sure, we'll go with that. Like where they hung Ned's head is my guess. The main thing to take away from that is she gets covered in poop. Probably as a metaphor for her character progression.

the only supposedly credible leak I've heard is that tyrion betrays the gang in some way and then gets executed by dragon fire

this is only "credible" in the sense that it came from some dude that the mentally ill people of r/freefolk claim has accurately leaked stuff before so who really knows
