Not too busy, but just didn’t want to:

They way Marvel has been treating the show I gotta feel like this is the last season no matter what.

I agree. I actually did honestly think at two different points that the Starks would lose — just because it is so like GRRM/GOT to let the good guys lose.

Seriously, I half expected him to take a strip of cloth from the dead septon’s clothing and turn it into a headband.

Shireen used to be Matilda, so of course she’s great!

Anyone else intrigued by the coincidence of Lady Stoneheart’s name and the fact that obsidian (stone) plunged into a heart can either turn someone into a White Walker or cure them of becoming a white walker? What if obsidian is part of the magic of reviving Lady Stoneheart, the Mountain, and others?

The only thing more hilarious than Tommen being the Azor Ahai is him living to be a really old man with his dear old Mother by his side. The prophecy didn’t say all of Cersei’s kids would die young. Just that she’d outlive them.

I agree with what you’re saying, but it seems quite clear at this point that not only does the movie side NOT care about the TV side, they actively want to ignore it and tell it to fuck off.

I understand that worry, but I don’t think that’s going to be the case. At this point I think the show is basically, as another commenter so aptly put it, ridiculous fan fiction. They may hit the same large plot points, but everything that gets us there is a fucking mess, where the show is just kind of waving its

:fingers crossed that when they enter the Tower of Joy the find Lyanna had twins - a boy and a girl:

The fuck you talking about? This is the first season most plotlines are driving forward at a more-than-decent rate.

The absolute biggest clue is the prophecy about the “mummer’s dragon”. Dragons that mummers (actors) use are fake props. A fake dragon would not be a real Targaryen. Since all the prophecies have been true in a metaphorical way, it makes perfect sense that Aegon is the mummer’s dragon.

tywin also said at one point “i could not prove you werent mine”.

Is it possible that Tywin could hate his son for entirely those reasons you stated and for him to STILL be a Targaryen? Or would the king raping his wife be something he would definitely know about?

Being good for different reasons than the reasons it was good when it started does not equate to being bad. Football is unrecognizable from what was played in the early 1900s, it was good then, and it’s still good. Very different, but still good.

I only like the idea in that the three heads all started out nearly the same during child birth. Not that they’re all Targs.

He’s just stating his opinions. Don’t get butthurt and call someone else’s opinions garbage because they don’t align with yours. Calm down.

I’m not saying the show is flawless, but comparing it to BvS? Come on. It’s still far and away better than most TV.

IMO, it was enjoyable as hell, but I see where you’re coming from. It’s totally offpace from seasons 1-4. I feel like the show is making a lot of things happen right now in order to speed to a conclusion and eschewing character development on the way. Specifically, I thought it was out of character for Roose to get

Yeah, changing the name from the Seastone Chair to the Salt Throne is sort of an odd one. What was wrong with the original name? And in what world is Salt Throne better?
