OT: GoT

[Uncle Ruckus]

Khaleesi gonna be the bad guy, Bronn next week, I 17ing hate the faith militant I don't understand why the 17 they have so much power when they had absolutely none before this

The Catholic Church ran things for

Centuries, there is a prescedent.

She can't be a bad guy until a whole lot changes. No one can stand against her. No one can stand against the WW. Their invasions have to coincide. Until some drastic stuff changes, they are the only two significant forces in this world and that has to put them on a collision course. Once all of the previous and coming attrition takes place -- and after the WW are defeated -- then we can discuss it further when there is a presumably leveled battlefield.

IMO Winterfell is built for this very purpose. A WW/Wight invasion. Might not be clear in show -- especially not since early seasons -- but there are two walls around it with a moat in between(I think you do see it when Theon takes it). But I can see a castle under seige with everything on all sides defeated -- with a 24 hour fire burning between those two walls making it wight proof.

Really, in the books, these "magic" places seem to be the wall, the cave, winterfell, storm's end, maybe the Hightower. Hope we see the Hightower when Sam goes to Oldtown. With spoilers from this season, they may actually be the strongest house left in Westeros by the end of the season, although they've been minimized in the show thusfar.

Dany will probably be viewed by a villian by EVERYONE except for Jon Snow, because he knows nothing right?

Coldhands/Benjen was a good tie-in, i like the way they merged those stories

High Sparrow is smarter then the Lannisters/Tyrells combined and has a more complex endgame then they realize. He will want the people of Westeros to fight against Dany and her massive Dothraki army.

Frey-pies... this needs to happen

Stoked for the Jamie/Blackfish conversation at Riverrun, that was a GREAT chapter in the books.

I hope within the next 2 weeks sees Arya on a boat back to Westeros. I am ready for that story line to end. I wonder how far Sam will get with Heartsbane? It isn't like his dad won't come after it. This week was pretty boring. Dany's speech was just a reason to show her on the back of a dragon and was pretty weak.

 

[coach66]

Arya finally gonna kick that girls *** that's

Been whipping her with that stick.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Brans visions were pretty cool at the beginning of the episode.

 

[coach66]

Kind of looks like Bran may exert some

Type of control over the Wights in some
upcoming battles.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

The Wights will be after him hard because he's one of the very few people that can stop them once he realizes the power he has.

My first thought when Arya blew out the candle is she's preparing to fight blind. Not sure what training the other girl had. It may mean nothing but it looked like she was preparing and waiting for her assassin to show up.

When she blew out the candle, kinda made me think she's been setting that other girl up by intentionally losing a la "rope-a-dope".

Blackfish, Jamie, and Brienne. That is going to be classic.

 

[Fogdog]

Been whipping her with that stick.

This...Needle gonna do some damage.

Good episode six review from Alt Shift X..

That was an amazing review. I needed to see some of that Tully/Frey situation "in writing".

 

[Sutterkane]

He makes great analysis videos. I plan on throwing some cash his way so he can keep doing what he does.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

If you're into GoT, comic book tv and movies, or Star Wars, there's a YouTube channel called Emergency Awesome. He does good video reviews of each episode plus a Q&A video every week. He also will post videos on any news related to new movies and tv shows about comics or Star Wars.

 

[coach66]

Outstanding

Nm

 

[The Maroon Pug]

You sure you are not talking about Emergency Awesome?

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Emergency awesome. Yes. Thanks for catching that.

 

[The Maroon Pug]

No problem, I like E.A's reviews a lot as well, especially for Marvel. That seems to be his bread & butter.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Here's what I haven't seen asked or talked about...how did Daenerys know that Drogon was over there? You couldn't hear or see him so there has to be some type of sixth sense going on between them

 

[aTotal360]

Survey says...it's a freakin scifi show. They can do what they want. If dragons are real, so is ESP.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Awesome response thanks111!!1!1!1!!
