This bugged me too, they clearly telegraphed that he ignored it like it was going to be a thing that this knowledge would remain hidden.

They could have at least had Gilly in the room and say it.

With how much of season 1 depended on Ned Holmes figuring out hair color you would think it would matter.

It's also been pissing me off that Bran keeps saying he is the "three eyed raven" as if that is the job title and not just a little thing the old guy did once to get Brans attention.

Didn't Jon and Sam find a horn in season 2 or 3 when they first found the buried dragon glass? Whatever happened to that horn.

He really had no endgame goal, did he. If it was to marry Cat then Sansa, he sure sucked at it. Then this master schemer and liar gets bested by two young girls and dies like a bitch.

At least Varys knew from the start that what he wanted was peace through Dany. Although he is just a background decoration now, I don't even remember if he has had a single line all season.

If you think about it, not a lot of Starks or Lannisters have died from their ~blood feud~

Only Ned, Rob and Cat were killed directly by the others

Jon demonstrated fire and dargonglass but conveniently left out valyrian steel. If anyone has a lot of valyrian steel stuff around its probably the Lannisters, cmon Jon.

They don't know that it's too late to protect the wall, but it's also a lot harder to defend a 700 mile border than a castle.

Just a bit of :spergin: its about 800 miles from Casterly Rock to KL traveling along the Goldroad from some quick googling.

Caesars Legions could march 25 miles on a good day so lets say the Unsullied are about as competent. That means it took them 32 days to get from CR to KL.

But what if there was a bunch of rocks blocking their path? Can we get a rockslide expert to chime in here?

well they're about twice as fast as humans sprinting so 30 mph, so about 500 miles a day to account for obstacles. so they can be in winter fell in hours and King's landing in days

hmm what kind of obstacles are we talking? Large rock chunks perhaps?

I care less about his level of undead intuition and more that they did the exact same ~suspense~ thing with Tyrion. And his was way better because you could actually believe she was going to kill him, and it meant something when she didn't.

I don't think it would take all that long to have his army of unresting workers dig through it or go over it. That's where the idea of some magic protection stopping him from doing that comes in but they didn't do that.

How are monsters made of ice going to take over anything in the south like Dorne. Just pick up the wall and move it to where the north connects to the south.

In my headcanon, Sam's boss at maester school gave him that diary on purpose for Sam to make that very discovery. I'm meeting the show way more than halfway on this, I know.

They should have not had the fairies stabbing the guy scene if the walkers are just going to be mindless bad guys. It hints at a backstory that will never be explained at all so why tease like that.

I've tried to read the books a few times and the farthest I ever got was like 75 pages. That's probably more a reflection on me than on them though.
