Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8
About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that... For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link Last edited by keg in kc; 06-21-2017 at 10:48 AM.. |

Maybe Arya kills Dany to save Jon.

If Dany turns on Jon she's nothing more than Cerci with perkier boobs.

Then it works out perfectly as GRRM is another fat bearded **** that can go die.

If Cercei had any sense she'd have had the Street of Steel and every blacksmith in town mass-manufacturing scorpions. Assemble them in batteries of 50 all over Kings Landing and let loose a pattern to punch holes in those dragons.

I didn't think of it this way, but whether luck or strategy, Cersei was right in not joining her forces to the North. They won without her and were decimated in the battle.

Tywin played out a similar strategy during Robert's Rebellion. |

That picture means nothing. In the books she has typical Targaryen features. Just because Emilia didn't want to wear contacts the entire time doesn't mean she doesn't have purple eyes. You need to stop with that.

Put everything else aside, his choices are: 1. murder both brothers (not necessarily easy, depending on circumstances), hoping he gets away with it, AND banking on Cercei winning the war AND banking on Cercei honoring her pledge to him, or 2. show up, say something -- maybe even that he's been sent to kill one or both of them -- but say he ain't doing that, because it's a bad bet, then bide his time and make a decision at some point along the way to ACTUALLY do it (if he thinks Cercei will win) or not (if he thinks the brothers are on the winning side, or 3. show up and try to figure out how to kill the brothers, in enemy territory, without getting caught, and escape back to friendly lines. Seems to me that 2 is the obvious choice for now, and he'll just defer his decision until he knows. Even if he shows up and says "that rotten c**t sister of yours sent me up here to assassinate the both of ya. Yeah, like I'd ever do that! I know where my bread is buttered", it wouldn't be real commitment. As we've known all along, Bronn's always doing what is best for Bronn, and if he thinks switching sides late and backstabbing Jaime or Tyrion is his best bet, then I think he does it.

Maybe Jorah's death will be the thing that finally gets through. Maybe the celebration we saw in the trailer was after she and Jon married. Yeah, I don't think so either. But who knows |

I think that trailer scene is misdirection. I don't think they're cheering for her at all. I think it was cut to make it look that way, and they're cheering Jon.

Hm. Interesting, Dany could have a Viserys moment. “Westeros has never given me that praise.” Unfortunately, no one is there any longer to say “here I stand.” |
