Arya will kill him.
Heh. All this worrying and in the end, this is correct. That's why she ends up with the dagger.Quote:

That's what happened, it was like 4 seasons of garbage and now it's actually good.
Littlefinger: hey sup
Sansa: can't talk right now, ruling
Littlefinger: *bong rip* what if there were like, dimensions where we were like, married? And like, there was a dimension where I was like, some sort of crazy sea monster or something?
Sansa: smh
You can pretty much just drop the show a little after Joffrey died and pick it up now with a "six months later" card in between and sort it out for yourself.

I’m glad I’ve seen every episode. All the little things seems to be adding up and giving a lot more impact as things are coming to an end.
Apparently HBO got hacked and GoT is going to be spoiled all to hell.
Bran became one creepy voyeur brother.
Hey, Jaime, quick question. What are your sister's boning preferences? Ass play, yea or nay?
Uncle Greyjoy is savage! He's so great. One of the best episodes in the series.
The rough outline of this season was leaked months ago and the detailed synopsis was leaked in Spanish and translated about a week ago. Both accurately detailed what happens in the first three episodes, so probably accurate regarding the next four too. Would need to be actual episodes of season 7 or season 8 details to be a significant leak.Quote:

Extensive Game of Thrones season 7 spoilers were leaked last fall on Reddit by a user named Awayforthelads, including chunks of dialogue. As filming of season 7 progressed last year, it became apparent that the leaks were largely accurate, and as the new episodes air, they’re matching the Awayforthelads spoilers almost to a tee, with a few small variances that can be excused by post-filming editing and on-set tweaking during filming.
Yeah, no shit it was a news story. I need the sauce, dood!
i agree. he's like angry britpop man with too many beers in him.Quote:

Useless.
He exists for the same reason the bastard did. To be murdered in glorious fashion. But they don't have 2 seasons to build him up like they did with dogboy, so they make him a little over powered.
True, he is basically there to balance out the dragons. Not having a book to base the material reveals some lazy writing.
Isn't that what he was doing the whole time he was away from home? He's a pirate.Quote:

It was covered last season when his brother told him to fuck off when he came home.Quote:

Bran north of the wall learning from the three-eyed raven, Sansa with access to the courts, Arya with the faceless men, Jon commanding The Wall, Sam in Oldtown becoming a maester, Dany sitting around. Anyway his initial plan was to jump five years into their future so they were all more developed in their respective specialties. So he worked on writing this concept for two years and realized he was mostly just writing flashbacks and scrapped it.Quote:

Oh well, instead we get this jumbled mess of a story, with unresolved plotlines, new useless POVs, and interesting characters left in the dust for the one and a half books that have been released in the 17 years since.
The people developing the show had to spend a season or two implementing a lot of the bullshit he wrote after book three and then spend the time to shore everything up to get it back on track into a feasible story with an ending.
it's always interesting in these places where fiction being adapted from one medium to another laps itself.
With one throwaway line, we are supposed to believe that he is awesome at everything? Euron is a not a believable character in GoT universe, he is a plot device and a shitty one at that.Quote:

So anyway, how 'bout Lady Tyrell, huh? A boss to the bitter end.
Goggle "Frikidoctor season 7". They're all in /freefolk on Reddit by a user called swordoftheevening.Quote:

Spiritually this season so far has felt different. Women paraded through the streets with their clothes on? Unheard of.Quote:

So Yara Greyjoy sets out from Dragonstone for Dorn, and the Unsullied for Lannisport. Since it shows the Unsullied arriving at Casterly Rock on ships, we're to assume that they sailed all the way around the southern half of the continent to get there? Seems odd, and if that's the case wouldn't they still have been with the Greyjoy fleet when they were intercepted? Dorn and Casterly Rock are the same course from Dragonstone.
And if they left around the same time, Euron's arrival at Casterly Rock makes no sense. So he intercepted the Greyjoys, turned around and sailed North to King's Landing to give his gift to Cersei, and then headed back out from there and started South again to also head alllll the way around around the Southern half of the continent in time to also catch the Unsullied ships?
What am I missing here?
The fact that the show has gone beyond the books and while GRRM might care about that kind of thing, Weiss and Benioff do not?
It's a jetpack thing.Quote:

Jon went to White Harbor to sail to Dragonstone.
Euron left King's Landing and took out the Greyjoys. He sailed back to KL to do his bravado thing. (Saving grace here is supposed to be that the attack took place near Blackwater Bay, so back/forth don't matter, but hmm.)
Euron left for Casterly Rock.
Jon arrived at Dragonstone.
Unsullied arrived at Casterly Rock.
Euron's fleet is apparently fast enough to have sailed all the way around to Casterly Rock. This is supposed to be an indicator that he really is some badass sea captain.
Still jetpacks, but not enough to bother me.
GRRM doesn't make content anymore.Quote:

Why do you think that Euron was at Casterly Rock? He has a sizeable fleet and only a fraction would have been needed. Also Euron's two naval victories are some weeks apart, so it is conceivable they could have split off after the first, while Euron went to deliver his present.Quote:

It hasn't hit RevTT for some reason.
Because every file is like 360p, because we're in 1998 or some shit.
ewww
If I wanted 360p, I'd just read the spoilers.
It's two more days. Who cares.
I think there is some of that. They probably got a lot of the actors under contract for a certain number of seasons and they're all pretty much postponing movie careers to finish the show now.Quote:

Yeah, I did, and it took a long time to. And now you've reminded me of it.
Cunt. :p
Pixels might have been the best movie out of that group of winners.
Aside from plot expediency of Rickon ... I mean, Drogon ... not zig-zagging, that was a rad episode.
Also, fuck you, Bran. Just say that the dagger belonged to Joffrey, given to him by Robert, who took it off Rhaegar's body, who got it from his father, who inherited it from a string that leads back to Azor Ahai.
Ho.ly.shit. that episode.
I'm pretty liquored up but that was incredible. Reunions we've been waiting the better part of a decade for and badass battles. Here, have this Blackwater x 3 in the middle of the season.
Good episode. I wish this was a Netflix show and I could just binge the whole thing.
My wife and I drink this really awesome navy-proof rum while we watch and were both drunkenly shouting, "WTF BRONN. JUST GO. YOU DON'T OWE THESE PEOPLE ANYTHING!"Quote:

Jon Snow is down in that cave with an ice pick carving out cave paintings
Hey so...
*Bong Rip*
Our ancestors totally didn't fight tho, these righteous ice dudes showed up and we made friends.
Also let's make out, Auntie.
I like how everything on the wall look like native art until it got to the white walkers, which look like a teenager's carving on a desk off of a heavy metal album cover.
He totally carved that one. Also, we know what Jon Snow does to beautiful women in caves.Quote:

What a fucking episode, the CGI for that battle was just amazing. The long shot over the shoulder of the one Dothraki as they're riding in to attack, straight up gave me chills.
Danerys is totally turning into the Mad King. I predict that Tyrion is going to be the Queen Slayer to Jaime's King Slayer.
No, she attacked soldiers instead of cities. She did the "right" thing, as Tyrion advised.Quote:

Littlefinger: *mean mugs all of Winterfell*
Sansa: what the hell is even wrong with you
I'm thinking Littlefinger's dagger plays a prominent role somehow. It was focused on pretty heavily, and even though Bran has to know Littlefingers connection to the dagger, he still asks him, somewhat in awe "Do you know who this belonged to?" like it had some historical significance and belonged to someone very important.
Stoned Freshman Bran is entertaining.
Didn't the knife originally belong to Littlefinger, who very publicly lost it to Tyrion in a gambling match, then had it stolen back, so that when it was used in the attempt on Bran's life it would look like Tyrion sent the killer (when in fact it was Littlefinger)? Or am I remembering something wrong? I thought the whole point of that scene was Bran telling Littlefinger he knows (by way of demonstrating he can find out things he has no logical way of knowing, i.e. Littlefinger's secret moto about chaos being a ladder).
That was a double-fold thing - he was testing Littlefinger, but there's also the historical significance. Littlefinger failed the test, now we just need to wait for the scene where he explains the significance.Quote:

It definitely seems like the show is going to simplify that, so it was all Littlefinger, but the questions will be: How did Petyr end up with it and why did he try to kill Bran?
I've had my thoughts on the dagger's origins from that first Catelyn chapter. (See earlier post by me.) I'll be interested to see if they shake out.
Not at all—you should rewatch it. She followed both Tyrion and Jon Snow's advice to not attack King's Landing (which would have resulted in countless innocent casualties), but she also ignored the advice not to ride in to battle herself. Attacking the loot train wasn't exactly a complicated plan plan. The show made seem less obvious than it was. "Lets just attack the troops at High Garden then?" Cersei's leverage with the Iron Bank is gone and I'm excited to see how quickly the owlish banker turns on her.Quote:

No no, Cersei has her money, it's the food that got burnt. There's a line about it. So she can pay the Iron Bank, but she can't survive a blockade of King's Landing once winter gets going.
She got the gold. It's the food that's gone. So Dany is hurting the citizens of King's Landing via her dragon attack. Davos will have to sail in with some onions again.Quote:

I had extreme dissonance when Bron and Dany were fighting. WHO AM I ROOTING FOR?
I think that was the intent - they're really trying to make you feel for those Lannister soldiers between Arya's meeting and then seeing them lose so horribly to a jet fighter.
Why would anyone root for Dany? At this point, I'm seriously rooting for the White Walkers. They get get practically zero screen time despite being presented as this sort apocalyptically determining player and they're not even necessarily evil. This show has done a really bad job representing the 'major threat', so if the Night King gets his turn sitting on the throne and maybe some actual development, that's cool with me.Quote:

It's nothing but death when we've seen them. Jon Snow is desperate to convince people to prepare. Stop the internal fighting or there will be nothing to fight over.Quote:

They're probably even going to set that up big time in an episode or two.
Also don't get too attached to Hot Pie.
If Hot Pie dies we riot.
Loved the ep. Anyone else notice how when Brann gave Arya that dagger, he did it liek he know he did something bad?
I see Dany going down the mad king path. but i think Jon will be teh one to bring her back to her senses. And that next ep preview makes it seem the white walkers gonna rek shop
C'mon now, I'm waiting for the "this episode suxed, nothing happened" posts.
THIS EPISODE SUCKS NOTHING HAPPENED UGHHH
jk, it hasn't aired over here yet. I'll be back later.
Gendry!! :D
This mission seems pointless to me, convincing a mad woman only to prolong a war and to kill off a couple of main characters. Maybe Cersei will turn everyone at King's Landing to white walkers
And Cersei is BSing Jamie.
That was a fun episode. I think I just saw Jon Snow turn into Frodo Baggins, the dragons continue to look amazing, Sam struts his stuff and Ladyfinger sets the bar for Creeper of the year. Take your drawers off right now Sats, preempt them from getting blown off.
