After a few days of thinking on the ending, a question popped up in my head: what period of time was Bran in when he ran into the white walkers? Was he doing a lateral shift and seeing them in the present? If it was in the past, wouldn't he have been 'marked' all along meaning the cave was never safe?
Two. The Terrell's army is going down. The sparrow will be unharmed. Watch the preview and the entire city is surrounding their puny little army. They will get bum rushed.

I agree with the Tyrells going down. I think the High Sparrow told Tommen about who kill Joffrey, and Tommen then told Cersei. The plan to get the HS is just a plot to get the Tyrells to commit their army and the Lannisters will double-cross the Tyrells. Of course I think this will backfire for the Lannisters. W/o the Tyrells backing them they don't have many allies left.
The Terrell army goes down this week. The sparrow insists Cersei still must stand trial. She tries to get the mountain to fight for her. Somebody else challenges the mountain and kills him and Cersei pays with her life. Eventually the sparrow has complete control of Kings Landing.
Yes.
All along I was assuming the end game would be a united Westeros fighting together to, barely, defeat the white walkers with the help of some badass dragons. Doesn't really seem necessary anymore.

I don't think we know the full extent of the White Walker army just yet. I'm guessing (hoping, really) they have more than a handful of guys and hordes of wights.

Haven't they been turning baby boys into walkers for decades? There has to be more.

I assume in most instances the WW will just let their undead horde kill everyone. All the dragonglass in the world isn't going to help you against thousands of of undead warriors swarming you. Now they did directly attack the cave in the last episode, but that was because the undead guys couldn't go through the fire. Plus the head WW may have wanted to attack the 3ER himself.

for next week and Im convinced of two things. One. That's Benjen on the horse and he's going to rescue Bran. Further I'm guessing with all the time missing he's going to know how to hunt and kill the walkers.

There will not even be a battle, the Sparrows will let her go claiming she repented and that she is now a fellow sparrow

I think they have said repeatedly she will still have to stand trial? Haven't they already alluded the Mountian would fight for her if it came to that?
Another interesting question is how she ends up standing trial in the first place - in other words, how the show will set up the famous "I choose violence" meme.
I could imagine Tommen abandoning Mom to her fate if Margaery dies, or even if the Queen survives but presents her besotted husband with a "Her-or-me" ultimatum after seeing her brother and her house double-crossed. Otherwise, why would Cersei leave the Red Keep? It's not like the Faith Militant can enforce a warrant on her for jumping bail.
Could the 'An old for returns' teaser be The Hound coming back? Arya left him to die, he has made his way back to KL to finally kill his brother? You would think he wouldn't be in shape to take on Frankentain, but maybe he has had help along the way?
Just a guess... My buddies and I have been trying to determine who the 'foe' is and I haven't had a guess until now
Wouldn't be surprised if Jamie survives somehow and is "done" with Kings Landing after this over.

That would be awesome. Nothing would make me happier than for the Hound to show up to take on his brother.

I'm talking about Margaery, not Cersei. The Frakenmountain will stand in for Cersei, the HS will release Margaery due to her becoming one of them
Well, there's the small matter of needing a champion who's willing to risk his life to prove your innocence. Seems a lot to ask if you're contesting a traffic ticket. But I think you're right, in the sense that Trial by Combat would logically only be an option for grave - probably capital - crimes.
You and the authors of the 100,000+ direct Google hits for "CleganeBowl"
Tommen told Cersi about Joffery. She is about to Red Wedding the Tyrells.
Lanster Army is behind the Tyrells like at Blackwater ready to slaughter them. Rains of Castimare was playing when Cersi was talking to Tommen.
Dead poll this week
Loris ,queen of thorns, the rest of the Tyrells. Except Margery who Cersi will torture a la Sansa.
And one more thing I don't believe one word from little finger
Blackfish is probably dead and Freys are running Riverrun it's a trap.

I didn't suggest it. Somebody else did. I think it would be cool. I dont google looking for spoilers.
Keep in mind, she has seen her brother become a broken beatdown man. She will do anything at this point to end this for both.
She becomes a Sparrow which is what the HS has been after this whole time; A person high up in the royal family who has influence over the king. The problem the HS has is that she is pretty cunning in her own right and she might be running a game on the sparrows to wait for her chance of revenge. There is a rumor floating around out there that Tommen uses the seven pointed star as his sigil in the future which seems to prove this theory

It does seem like the whole Littlefinger thing is a trap but Im still curious if he might "actually" have feelings for Sansa. I think he might which changes things a little.
Perhaps not this season or as much last season, but that's because the brothers have been off screen.

When? They generally are always referred to as "Mountain" or "Hound" or "Dog". Im sure it was mentioned once or twice over the last 6 years but what TV watchers are sitting with note pads writing stuff like this down?

In the first season, they were referred to by name 4 times during the season, the majority of those times as an explicit introduction. Moreover a search of the Game of Thrones wiki, which since it refers explicitly only to show-only events, tells you the Cleganes are the Hound and the Mountain.
No superhuman attention or memory to detail is necessary to to note or recall those names.
Thanks for your opinion though!
Has anyone seen spoilers for Blood of my Blood? Hopefully they're more careful it, it sucks when plots get ruined.
And the crew and cast members who leaked stuff should be fired or punished otherwise.
I, personally, slowed down and watched the preview for next week about three times. It appears the Terrell army is completely surrounded by the city. That's all I know.
Someone here posted a link on Sunday afternoon and I clicked it and saw the spoilers.
At first I thought it was purely speculative, but found out after watching the show they were 100% accurate.
I wish I hadn't clicked it.
No, it was in the book thread. but at this point we're all guessing, the books are pretty much done.
I just figured it was theory like so many of the wikis or reddit sites about the show. I was wrong, it was legit spoilers.
Also, the person who does the translations of the show into other languages allegedly shared the plot with many people prior to airing of The Door and that found it's way online.
2) Joff was still Tommen's brother even if he was a jerk. I'm sure Tommen would be upset. He seemed too put together when he was about to reveal whatever secret to Cersei.

Damn. Well that sucks. I would have never clicked on a link like that in the first place though. If you know what happens specifically please do not share.

this was last Sunday, before The Door episode, I haven't seen any spoilers for Blood of my Blood (this Sunday's episode). And if I do see a link I'm not following it.
2) Joff was still Tommen's brother even if he was a jerk. I'm sure Tommen would be upset. He seemed too put together when he was about to reveal whatever secret to Cersei.
Loras would of had to have known and he divulged it when they were "breaking" him. Only possible way it works.
If you are going by just WTF moment where a big name dies in a cool way, then maybe, but I don't see this season topping some of its predecessors, certainly not unanimously. Season 1-3 were fantastic and season 6 needs a lot of work to come close, IMO.
2
3
1
5
If I was ranking them with 6 having a very good chance to come in number one after its all over.
Loris and Margery are so close if Loras wasn't gay they would be like Jamie and Cersi. They have shared sexual partners She adores him of course she told him about Joffery and he broke in interrogation by the Septan.
He the told Tommen knowing he would tell Cersi.(is the HS a Baelish?) he knows how to play the game.
Tommen didn't seem upset? He was practically shaking.
Cersi refuses to look directly at the Queen of Thorns in the small chamber meeting and Jamie is almost too friendly like he is before he double crosses you.
Cersi also interrupted the Old guy telling Tommen about his enemies outside the walls and within. Cersi looked like she wanted to kill the old fool right there. And of course when we hear the Rains of Castimire playing we know the lanisters are about to fuck someone up.
Since the have been opening with vital scenes first I imagine we meet BenJen Stark right away.
Makes a ton of sense, really... Don't think word has made it to him that his daughter and new born son are dead...
Would make for a great scene!
"An old foe comes back into the picture. Gilly (Hannah Murray) meets Sam's (John Bradley) family. Arya (Maisie Williams) faces a difficult choice. Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) faces off against the High Sparrow (Jonathan Pryce)."
She was asked whether she decided she'd join them and her answer was "A girl has decided" (I'm paraphrasing). I thought it was left open-ended what that meant.
I think she could absolutely abandon them.
Yeah, synopsis... Sorry about that... The old foe line has been bothering me for days... We've been discussing who it could be...
Quote:
"Assassins" are fucking stupid. The logic behind it is horrible. Worst part of the show IMO. My guess is that Arya is going to have to murder somebody she loves and will break the vow and essentially all of this was to make her a bad ass fighter.

She will. It just won't happen until a "hit" comes pretty close to home. I'm guessing she kills that bitch who has a vandetta against her on the way out the door too.
I just really hate the logic behind the "many face God", ect. Seems like a shitty religion to to take hits out on anyone and everyone for money regardless of who they are.

Agreed. I think she is going to turn on them. I remember in the first trailer for this season they showed her jumping off a building. She is probably running away to flee Braavos and return to Westeros.
Good guesses on the old foe. Could very well be the hound or walder frey
- Lord of the light
- Gods of the forest
- Many face god
- Drowned god
- Great Stallion
- Great Shepard
Am I missing any?
Z, the Old gods are the same as the gods of the forest. That is the religion the North and beyond the wall still worship, including the Stark's.
The Great Shepard was shown in season one, where the Dothraki invaded another clan that worshiped rams\sheep. That's when Dany saved that witch, who in turn killed her baby and poisoned Khal as revenge.
Is Uncle Benjen the meaning for the title Blood of my Blood?
Or could it be just a bloody episode.
You can only rent/buy episodes on Amazon, something like $4 per episode or $30 per season. Best way to binge watch the series, is to sign up for HBO Go for a few months.
I re-watched seasons 1-5 in a little under 3 weeks, so you might only need it for a month or two.
Children of the forest do follow the same old gods of the forest as the Northern people.
My guess is that after the events of the Children creating the WW/Others, a peace was eventually reached between the First men and Children of the Forest where they showed respect by honoring their religion (Old Gods). I have a feeling that much like how it was revealed the Children created the WW/Others to fight against the First Men which they ultimately lost control of, someone/ something else in Essos probably created something similar with R'holler and the Lord of Light, seeing as they are two religions we are told have a history of war between each other. Maybe the First Men practiced some dark arts to create Rhollar to combat the Others.
That's why the wights were waiting under the snow for them back in season 4 when they got to the tree. And that's why the white walker army was able to get there so quickly after Bran was marked.
