Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?
I mean, anything's possible, but since Cersei and the Lannister forces aren't anywhere near the north in the next episode (barring some more of that teleportation action we've been getting since last season), I don't see any probability for Cleganebowl tomorrow. I'm guessing the final battle of the season / show is probably gonna be remaining living vs. Cersei, so the Hound is probably safe tomorrow.

I also kinda feel Arya is definitely safe for tomorrow and possibly the next episode, because considering her arc, I don't feel like she'll die before either having at least attempted to kill Cersei, or be party to her death.

I definitely see at least one of the pairs of interchangeable role characters dying, like Champion-wise, I think either Jamie or Brienne eat poo poo, same with characters like Jorah and Grey worm, or Davos and Tyrion as advisors. In terms of my death pool, that unfortunately makes almost everyone except for two people from that fire-side drinking/bullshitting/knighting scene from last Sunday supremely vulnerable.

I'm okay with absolutely everyone dying, though. Just :killing: already, damnit.

By the way, if you would have told me before the beginning of the show that ~THE DEAD ARE COMING~ at the end of the 1st season and that they wouldn't actually get to Westeros until THE THIRD EPISODE OF THE LAST loving SEASON, I would have laughed you out of the room.

The best part is that if they'd never gone north to try grab a wight to make peace with the south, the dead would still be stuck north of the wall Nd Daenerys could clean up Cersei

I realized later this week about Aryas list, which is presumably unfinished (I presume Cersei was on it but I forget), therefore making her arc incomplete.

also are the only people who can prove Jon is a Targaryen heir. 50/50 on Dany leaving Jon to die during the battle or putting a knife in his back directly,

I don’t think she’ll kill Jon. I’ve been doing a total rewatch and she just said in an episode I watched that was in Qarth that she isn’t going to have human children. Her dragons will be her only children.

A kill list is a dumb plot device, not an "arc."

I want the dead to leave a garrison in the north to pin down Winterfell, while the dragon goes and just sinks the loving Iron Islands.

Ah, but her source on that was the black magic witch who "saved" Drogo and as someone (I forgot who) pointed out, she might not be the most trustworthy person.

Considering that she's wanted to kill Cersi for 7 seasons... yeah I'd say it's an Arc at this point.

Yeah, but I don't think she gives a poo poo about her genetic legacy: her entire motivation from Day 1 has been reclaiming the Iron Throne, and she's shown she's willing to be utterly ruthless to get it. She's not going to let another man snatch away her prize at the last minute. As long as Jon lives, he's a threat to her.

Nostalgia4Dogges posted:

I mean, the idea that we are our own worst enemies has been a pretty consistent theme.

My bet for the final scene: After a huge battle, Ciersi and Jamie are the only two left alive. He kills her and his unborn child to stop whatever madness she has planned, and collapses on to the Iron Throne, totally broken and alone, as snow begins to fall through the wrecked roof of the Great Hall.

I've been re-watching S1-S7 and with the behind the episode commentary from the producers, what's more clear is that she loved her baby more than anything. It was only when her brother pointed a sword at her belly did she not bat an eye when he died. Same thing with Jorah - when he admitted that he sent a letter to Varys about her pregnancy - that's when she banished him the first time. Now she sees the dragons as her children because she thought she was the last Targaryen alive. Now she isn''t and it's possible she's carrying his child.

yeah that whole thing was loving dumb

Hey we know you all love these heroic tough guy bad dudes and their quips so we’re going to send them on an adventure! Surely our hero is out of op....oh here comes Uncle Benjen

How the gently caress did they get the chains on the dragon is what I wanna know. I mean I guess they can walk underwater...maybe?

I remember in a later intro the water next to that castle has frozen over and people theorized they were simply going to walk around the wall. Don’t remember if the water was frozen in the actual show, or if they showed it.

I’m still waiting for Syrio Forel to save the day and or reveal himself as the faceless man.

I guess the Nymeria scene was just paying homage to the books? She better not come save Arya with her wolfpack or some bs. With all that CGI money spent those wolves seemed pretty lame and just constantly died. Well, I guess Bran’s saved him

Also, WE NEVER SAW STANNIS DIE ON SCREEN! There’s still a chance! I forgot but where is the red witch again? Is she done? I think Jon exiled her but I don’t recall.

That witch did say Drogo would come back...if certain parameters were met. But yeah, I know if any old character came back people would put it together and leak the gently caress out of it with them being on the sets and not able to film other roles

Also is Cersei still pregnant? I know she’s been drinking wine, so not sure if that’s a factor.

Sorry for the mess of blabbering

So, we already agreed on everyone in the crypt being hosed because it's called the safest place to be.

But it just occurred to me that the crypt is full of corpses.

The White Walkers raise corpses.

Aren't all of the corpses in the crypt just bones, like they boil all of the flesh off in preparation for internment. And most of the army of the dead has some flesh left?
