That's the play I'm talking about. I don't think the Starks were portrayed as bad guys, it was just a spoof of the doings at the royal court.

The play shakes is talking about wasn't at Joffrey's wedding. Joffrey's wedding was 5 dwarves reenacting the War of 5 Kings, the play shakes is referencing was mocking all the big families and characters surrounding Ned's beheading.

I know the play wasn't at Joffrey's wedding. It was in Braavos as shakes said. The five dwarf kings were at the wedding.

i wonder if it'd be too on-the-nose for cersei and jamie to kill each other. i see both of them dying, but so many of these characters are locked in to poetic endings that it's going to be hard to be shocked by anything.

the fact that fans have gone from "oh my god, i can't believed they killed that character!" to "please kill someone! kill more people!" shows how the tide has turned.

I'd have no problem if the Night King is resurrected and kills everyone and sits on the Iron Throne.

Watched it again. This one will be great to watch again every so often. People will get over that it was too dark.

Wow. Maybe that was actually the best episode of the series!

Did he just drop a spoiler or push another theory? Honestly, the theories on this board and online elsewhere are more interesting than the actual writing we're seeing on the show.

He is pushing a theory, which went into my fanfic earlier about Bran becoming the Night King after the Battle of King's Landing.

_________________

That theory is obsolete now. If it were true Bran would have disintegrated or whatever when Arya killed the Night King.

Where does everyone stand on the Jon yelling ‘GO’ right before Arya jumps? I’ve watched it a dozen times and it’s hard to tell for sure. The CC just lists it as [yelling].

While I marked out in the moment, the more I sit back and reflect, the more disappointment sets in. What army are you taking south? A couple dozen people survived based on the final shot. You didn’t really lose any core characters outside of Jorah and Theon. The inner circle is almost fully intact. Just send Arya south alone and let her handle Cersei and we can all go home early.

None of it makes too much sense really. Why not at least try to talk Bran into warging into the Mountain for a second and killing Cersei?

Cersei is peanuts

It's Dany vs Sansa/Tyrion/Snow/Arya

I think that a number of the Unsullied are left and some of the Dothraki. They have the Second Sons available as well as the Iron Born. The Knight of the Vail were never used at all in the battle. Why, I do not know. We also do not know how many Wildings are left after the battle. Plus. they are not facing a huge enemy either. There are the Iron banks mercenaries but are they really under Cersei's control or did they get bought off by Varyies? We really do not know.

Plus, there are still two kick ass fire breathing dragons who are pissed off. What good is Cersei's navy against those dragons who pretty much wiped out a couple of fleets already? Another thing. What about the "believers" in Westeros who watched Cersei wipe out their cult leader? What if they have a civil insurrection before this it over? SHAME......SHAME..... Maybe the "SHAME" bitch fucks the Mountain to death and spoils the Hounds revenge? Or how about Ghost recruiting every bad ass wolf in the world?

Nah. The end is going to be Cersei left alone with all of her power gone. All of her deals have failed and her family including her lover/brother leaving her. Bron will betray her. The Iron Bank will betray her. The Mountain will be killed as will her creepy "hand". She will at the end be left alone and will kill herself. IN the end of it all, she has always let other people do evil deeds for her and not have to dirty her hands. It is her mark as a coward and she will take the coward's way out via suicide.

touching him just made him "marked", so the night king could find him. every other thing the night king "touched" instantly turned them into a wight. bran wasn't technically physically touched, since he was warging at the time. i'm pretty sure the "bran is the night king" theory is as dead as the long night.

During the episode it crossed my mind that Bran warged into the night king. The night king didn’t really appear until Bran warged. He didn’t unwarg until the night king was where Arya could kill him. But for that to be the case, there has to be some ulterior motive for Bran to do this as opposed to just letting Snow kill him. Surely wrong but that was my first thought during it.

You're just repeating what I said but with way more words.

I can't imagine a civil insurrection as this show was never interested in the citizens and peasants.

You're right. I was just basically spit-balling. They can't turn the GOT into Venezuela, right?

So for everyone taking a dump on the show:

How would you course correct the show in the last 3 episodes in order to give you the ending you want?

Yeah, that further pushes me to believe Bran is up to something.

They've dragged Bran around for years. It seems impossible that he doesn't play a bigger part in things.
