You are 100% dead in that era with punctured gut wounds like that (even now, it's extremely dangerous), never mind the swimming in a gross river. It's particularly egregious in a show that has had multiple major characters die from wound infections/complications. Sure, this is a show with ice zombies and dragons but…

S5 is pretty great but the villain(s) is pretty weak, I think that's partly why season 2 and 3 are the usual candidates for best season.

I'd put season 5 above it, but not by a lot.

Why? It's not like anyone is going to get a fair trial with those Faith Militant clowns.

I'll hold out hope a little bit through episode 10. If not then, then never. She's a huge reveal for the show and I don't think they'd drop her in episode 8. But certainly it's not looking likely.

I still think it'll be an ep10 reveal. They've harped on Cat soo much this year. It don't quite get why they're bringing all that up otherwise unless there's another reason we haven't figured out.

CleganeBowl is almost entirely reader/watcher invented though. There are essentially no hints about that in the show itself, aside from The Hound coming back. Cat and her throat slitting/Freys/BwoB/Robb etc have been mentioned over and over. They might be trolling, but it's exactly the kind of foreshadowing they have…

Maybe. But they're foreshadowing it like crazy town. I would be surprised if it doesn't happen at this point.

No, I mean they spoiled LS identity, not whether or not she will appear (which seems likely but not confirmed).

Bit of a dick move spoiling who Lady Stoneheart is on here isn't it? I mean, I know who she is, but a lot of show watchers still don't, and you don't even have any spoiler warnings.

It's not confirmed. Everything in the show and the heavy foreshadowing indicates she is, but no one knows for sure.

He co-wrote this as well. And is a pretty big gamer. I don't think he was just a gun for hire.

I'm really bummed that R-rated Bioshock movie didn't work out. I mean, I have no idea how it work would as a film, but I just wanted to see that world reimagined for cinema.

I'm not sure Snyder is self aware enough to make such a comment.

I think that's a different argument, though. There *is* interesting philosophical stuff underpinning the Matrix movies. That doesn't make the sequels any less flawed, or Revolutions any less than god-awful.

Plus, do they have siege equipment and such? I was happy to see some realities of medieval sieges in the Riverrun story this week (eg. Blackfish has enough food for 2 years, etc). That's in contrast to say, Stannis, who apparently rocked up at Winterfell completely disorganised and with no heavy weapons or anything.…

Don't know how much it plays into it but the episode DoP was P.J. Dillon. Apparently only his second episode. I didn't even realise that GoT had a rotating roster of DPs, though I suppose that's the only way to do it when you've got multiple units simultaneously. I don't know if I was just paying more attention to it…

I think the Riverrun castle was a set (there's some production photos floating around on reddit). They built the drawbrige/front facade and the rest is CGI. But I agree. Seamless work.

Either that or it's lazy writing…
