Gilly? GILLY?
Ygritte was fine...until the cave. Then it just looked like there's not enough burgers to eat north of the wall.

How many legitimate stars will come from this show? Sophie Turner, Kit Harrington, Emilia Clarke, Peter Dinklage (although he certainly deserved to be one before this) are the ones that I see.
Thought Robb Stark would have a chance, but he looks off without his beard.

Jon Snow is dead.
He will return though. You know why? Because Sam the Man said so.
Anyways, Toros brought back Beric Bondarrion so anything is possible. The thing I wonder about is what part of him will be removed if he is resurrected by the Lord of Light? I hope it's the bullshit "honor" part.
EDIT: I always thought that the blood in that scene was supposed to be symbolic of Jon SNOW dying...well in the snow.
It's been so long, feels like it happened in another series (almost).
Yeah, that was Season 3.

what do you mean a part of him will be removed?
Beric Bondarrion said that parts of you get chipped away when you get resurrected.

I took that as meaning that things that have been cut off stay cut off so you won't completely heal even if you live again.
If every person in this boat stood up, Gendry would be like a giant.
Maybe, but I always thought the line came off as describing who you were as a person.
"Kill the boy, so that the man will live."

Westerosi koksukka!
Can't wait!
Shame on anyone in this thread that hasn't seen Deadwood. Season 6 got infinitely better just due to McShane.

While Natalie Dormer was already pretty famous, she is getting a lot bigger roles now. Also, Maisie Williams has a lot of potential to make it quite big.
How about Gwendoline Christie? She's going to be in Hunger Games and Star Wars this fall. That's two huge movies. Unless her roles in these movies are going to be very minor?
She's playing Captain Phasma in Star Wars which seems to be a pretty major antagonist role.

Yeah, like Alexander Siddig!
He may still play a huge role, you never know. Especially with Myrcella being poisoned after making it explicitly clear that Ellaria was to stop fucking around.
Definitely Sophie Turner, I really think she has the best chance, tall, young, beautiful and talented. The others ... nah. Harrington will get a few roles but will be tossed aside for the next hot and young guy that comes along, Clarke can't act and fucked up big time by starring in Terminator genysywhatever and Dinklage is too small, like it or not but he can only play specific types of roles, he'll work but more as a character actor.
I think Lena Heady will get more and better roles, she's already an established actress and GoT helped raising he profile but she's too old to become a major star at this point. She should be but the roles a woman her age should play usually go to starlets in their early 20s, that's how 22 year old Kate Bosworth was cast as experienced Pulitzer Price winning journalist Lois Lane who also had a five year old son. Not that Lena should play Lois but it was exactly the type of major role that should have gone to an older actress but didn't. Happens all the time, they finally got it right with Amy Adams as Lois, the movie might have sucked but the casting was great.
I think many people will say Maisie Williams but I don't see it, people are in love with her character and that will allow her to work in genre shows at least but beyond that ... I just don't think it's going to happen.
Max von Sydow in GoT, why I don't mind that one bit. HBO killing it with these casting announcements.
...aaaaaaand now I don't care about Jon Snow coming back anymore. Can't wait until winter is coming. And leaving again. Gimme S6 now!
Soooo any help here guys ...
I have a friend that I convinced to start watching GoT.
She is on episode 3, is there anything that I can send her that shows characters and houses and all of that with out spoiling anything so that she can remember and know all of them??

GoT getting Ming makes me wonder what Brian Blessed and Timothy Dalton are up to.

Send her this. Shows the houses and characters of season 1. No spoilers, this is the way it looks at the start of the season.

You can set where everyone is based on whatever episode or book chapter you choose. It's just pretty slow since there is a ton of info.
Also on youtube you can find the animated history of westeros from each Blu-ray season. They don't really cover anything that's happened in the show, but maybe just do season 1 to be safe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSuXBVv4ppY

Not in the show, yet.
I believe Robert talked about how Rhaegar raped her. I think he said something like, "...what he did to her." Implying he did more than just rape her.
Found an article on reddit. It's about S6 SFX and contains some (IMHO) very mild spoilers. Nothing about new characters or story arcs. No resurrection story or funeral scenes involved.
(Be warned about hovering over the link if you want to go into S6 1000% blind, the URL is pretty straight forward.)

Damn, another great actor.
I hope they don't blow their financial load on these casting choices and skimp out on those flying dragon scenes again.
I'm almost sure that in Winterfell's catacombs when Sansa and Littlefinger were down there she says something on the lines that Rhaegar "raped and killed" Lianna, and Littlefinger just smirked.

Looks like the actor who plays a certain character from a couple of seasons ago has confirmed that his character will be returning although not necessarily in Season 6. Safety spoilers follow for those who want to remain pure.
David Bradley said he will be reprising his role as Walder Frey at some point in the series. I can't wait.
I'd get off this thread sharpish if I were you! The spoilers will come thick.
However, you can rest easy knowing that the quality only improves up to season 4, with opinion divided on s5. I liked it, but others found it a bit of a drag after the bombastic s4.
In 1 week I watched the 5 seasons of GOT and it was amazing and I just want more. This is seriously the best tv series that I have ever watched, it's just too good. Netflix really needs to get a Witcher or Lord of the Rings Series going because GOT is just amazing and Marco Polo can't really compete.
While the thread's bumped, be careful folks, they're filming in Belfast at the moment and several cast members have been spotted, and their names are essentially spoilers for the show.
So be wary of what news you're reading. I think it best we don't mention whose been sighted in here.
