Ramsay said that to Theon. Ramsay is fucking dead, Theon is not.

fuck the maesters, man.

The maesters deserve to die. They are sitting out there yapping it up being totally ignorant and all like "The White Walkers are no threat, everything's fine!" I'd love to see their faces if they stormed The Citadel. They'd shit themselves more than they already have been, and Sam wouldn't be there to clean it all up.
This is my fear. I don't think of myself as some sort of oracle, but I might get lucky, and here on GAF, posters are (rightfully) held to a higher standard, and I respect the opinions and thoughts contained herein. It would not be an issue had the leaks not happened.
I am still happy to speak on more popular theories, though. For example, the waif theory. I will shoot that down like a dragon with ice spears of logic until the end.

The walls magic prevents them crossing.
They've just been waiting for a dragon to hitch a ride on. If it wasn't for Dany they wouldnt have even been a threat.

Characters they definitely won't kill IMO:
Sansa
Sam
Gilly
Characters they might killer:
Bran
The Maesters
Yara
Character that is 100% gonna die:
Theon
When Theon finally dies, he'll be happy about it. It'll be a heroic sacrifice or something.

My jaw was slowly beginning to drop. I couldn't even get past the first blurb, because I was so confused. Finally got to the end...well fuck you lol.

Man, even the onion going in on them. Really though, this season isn't that bad is it? Am I going to hate it when I do a series rewatch because as it stands I'm still really enjoying this season regardless of it's flaws.
But I don't remember this show ever getting shit on this hard, not even season 5 and that has some stinkers.

No it most certainly isn't that bad. It's been shaky but nowhere near as bad as some say.
This latest episode in particular is really divisive. Loads of people picking up on 'teleporting' characters.
DragoonKain
Neighbours from Hell
This season's reception has been incredibly positive until the latest episode. If the finale finishes strong, this season is a major win IMO.
While I've been vocal about people acting like the "teleporting" doesn't make sense, I do think that they needed to have ten episodes like normal and not because we need scenes for travel or whatever, but just so we can have more dialogue and character building scenes.
It won't happen but I wish this would let them know that season 8 needs ten episodes.

I think this season will be remeberbed a lot like season 5, a bad season with one episode that will go down as one of the best in the show.
Hardhome single handedly saved season 5, The Spoils of War isnt as good as Hardhome was.
The show is at peak hysteria in terms of pop culture impact - everyone is watching it now
The story is also well beyond the books now
It's not strange that the conversation is loaded and every scene is picked apart
Agreed that last couple eps have some logic gaps but also feel that if the finale is strong this season will be overall a positive
If the finale is good I think it's still well ahead of 5 - we shall see

I honestly think that this episode would've been received like past event episodes if we hadn't cut back to Winterfell so much. More of the build up to the battle and less cutting back to an okay sub-plot could've done wonders.

Water is not wet!
This season has been great for me.

Same here.
100% agreed.
Speaking of the final, I think this one will be a really different final than we've ever had. Usually we have a ton of different storylines that each can have a big twist or cliffhanger for the next season but right now we only have Winterfell, King's Landing and Dany/Jon's, so anything eventful that happens has to happen to a lot of characters and not just the main character of their plotline.

Maybe it's because it's almost 5 am, but it took me a second to notice the little detail on this article.
Dorne Varys.
Fleet Varys.
You'd think the Faceless Men would be more accurate but I guess they have some shitty Faceless Men, too.
Don't try to hand-waif this away!
You're making my head hurt. People were actually making that claim? lol
^^ Why do you have a picture of Ron Jeremy's brother in your post Einchy?
Maybe Bran warged my post...

I mean, I try to see where some are coming from regarding the "teleporting" characters but it just doesn't matter imo. The show always had chronological issues, not to mention time, distance and measurements don't even make sense in this series.
My issue with the past episode is that there should've been some lines indicating how long they were at the island.
I remember them leaving Eastwatch with backpacks which must have had food and other provisions/supplies.
Jorah standing about the island mentioning that they've run out or something would've been cool, something like "it's been days since we left Eastwatch and we've used the last of our provisions"(something like that but more tailored to the character and much better written). It's just a nitpick but something I thought about.
Same with Dragonglass, it's clear that they were armed with daggers. Should have mentioned it.

Probably cause they were carrying the wight and Thoros.
This should be the title of the next OT.
They pretty much caught up to them just running from the lake to the rock.
To have an action scene where the Night King gets a Zombie Dragon.
D&D have things they want to happen, and they'll do whatever to make that happen. They've literally stated this.
Creatively it made sense to us, because we wanted it to happen."

There's no way they could do that, not with the wight, not with the older dudes like Jorah and The Hound...
Gendry hardly made it back and he wasn't carrying anything and he's probably the youngest and fittest of the bunch.
The wights are also pretty damn fast, remember them steamrolling at Hardhome?
They were carrying dead weight
But we're still talking about human bodies here. There's no indication that the zombies can suddenly sprint at super human speeds. One minute you can see a rolling avalanche thingy far off in the distance, next minute there's a horde on their backs. Forget the time stuff, it's things like that that make me roll my eyes. Them attacking the bear like it's a turn based RPG, Tyrion suddenly being a myopic fuck, and the sudden closing of the distance of the zombies are just so jarring.
I thought it was just the wave attacks that made them so dangerous.
Realistically, they had a huge lead on them, and poof that lead disappeared.
