The Martells have like a million princes, literally every noble there is a prince, it's not really much of a loss beyond him being the Sexiest Prince.

Pretty sure you're wrong there. He's a Martell, which is like being a Stark in the north. It's not just any noble family, it's THE noble family.

Also I like how Tyrion was like "you could at least wear a helmet" and then Oberyn dies from getting his head bashed in :lol:

Tyrion was the show's audience in that scene. "Holy poo poo! He might actually... holy poo poo he's going to pull it off!"

*head smash*

"Oh, goddamn it"

Yeah but I am trying to remember if they said earlier how high of a prince he was. None the less, you are sending back a dead prince of a noble family.

Like I just said, he's extremely high. He's a member of the top noble family in Dorne, his older brother is heir to the whole entire place. They don't have "millions" of Martells running around, it's a big loving deal considering the Martells already hated the Lannisters for killing Elia (Oberyn's sister) and her children.

The second son and very close friends with Prince Doran, the ruler of Dorne and the guy who the Lannisters expected to show up for the wedding.

Wait, what? I thought he was Doran's younger brother

I don't get the call by Tywin (okay I do but still), I mean, both combatants died, isn't it a draw?

One combatant killed the other one that's not a draw. Yeah he's all kinds of hosed up and will die eventually but he clearly won.

I do hope Tyrion gets out of it somehow though because this is a lesser show without Peter Dinklage.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say there's no loving way Tyrion is going to die this season.

Roose is great because he's smart and ruthless like Tywin but he has people skills and doesn't constantly poo poo on everyone around him. This show is pretty much full of people seeking approval and getting rejected (especially between sons and fathers) so giving Ramsay his name should earn Roose a Father of the Year award.

I wonder how much of Roose's motivation to legitimize Ramsay was "you done good, son" versus "this kid is a loving crazy person and I'd rather have him as a devoted son/ally than resent me and eventually turn against me"

So how does Tyrion get out of the execution? His execution is the obvious thing so I think it's safe to assume its not going to happen right? Or maybe its a double GRMM fake-out?

He either dies or Jamie saves him somehow, I really can't see any other outcome. He has no other friends left in King's Landing. On the other hand, will Tywin really extinguish his line by killing Tyrion and pissing off Jamie? Maybe the deal with Jamie leaving the Kingsguard in exchange for mercy could still be on but that doesn't seem likely after Tywin publicly announced Tyrion's execution.

And does he have a perverted hardon for Sansa because shes all he has left of Cat?

Yes, equal parts "the daughter I should have had with Cat" and "a younger verson of Cat that's a bigger babe than she ever was"

I thought barristan fought against robert? wasn't there a scene with him and ned stark talking about their mutual respect or something like that even though they were previously enemies? I can't believe I'm imagining all this.

Yes. He fought against Robert and was given a royal pardon by Robert because he's an honorable badass and at the time was the best fighter in Westeros. The person you quoted is wrong.
