Spreaking of Dorne, I wonder if/when "King Bashir" is ever gonna learn that his wife fucked him over a second time even after that warning?

I did not know she was his wife.

Spreaking of Dorne, I wonder if/when "King Bashir" is ever gonna learn that his wife fucked him over a second time even after that warning?

I mean the boat was really close. Wouldn't it have made sense for Jamie to turn around and be like, "What the fuck?"

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Can we finally join hands with our book brethren?

never, there is still some book material they haven't done yet. Plus, new casting rumors have characters from the books still.

They could always turn the boat around. She probably high-tailed it out of there along with the Snakes.

 

[BlackGhost]

Jon knew nothing :"/

 

[BSsBrolly]

Read the damn OP

Maybe you need to read it again. It says no book spoilers. What I said was in no way a book spoiler. In fact everyone is commenting about the very thing I stated.. Only difference is that I said I was spoiled by a book reader.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Someone gif Jon at the end. I want to see this change to his eyes everyone is on about.

I don't see it. His eyes do go from dark brown to light brown, but that seems to be just because the camera zooms in close enough to see his real eye color.

 

[Minion101]

Daenerys is the only one safe to root for.

 

[Scrooged]

This show. Holy shit.

 

[Fantastical]

So... do we think Melisandre knew everything that was going to go down? Or at least knew she was misleading Stannis?

I don't see it. His eyes do go from dark brown to light brown, but that seems to be just because the camera zooms in close enough to see his real eye color.

God damn he is beautiful. <3

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Daenerys is the only one safe to root for.

Honestly, no one is safe at this point.

So... do we think Melisandre knew everything that was going to go down? Or at least knew she was misleading Stannis?

I don't think she was misleading Stannis, by the look on her face when the bad news started pouring down for Stannis - she knew right then and there that she misinterpreted her visions.

She's not.

 

[Cidd]

Rip Jon, You had a decent run I hope you'll be back with cold hands....

 

[Ridli]

What if she was legit look about Stannis not being the one? Like she said, she has no powers - she's just human, so she can make mistakes. She could have misinterpreted her visions.

We already have proof that Mel's words do have some weight.

She likely just completely misread her visions by backing Stannis.

I think she thinks she got dropped by the Lord of Light. And I'm trying to remember what the last power she has expressed since the Shadow. Maybe she's being played too.

 

[Sean*O]

I don't even think I'll watch this episode. This show has become a parody of itself and tries too hard to be depressing. Not spending anymore time on it.

 

[DangerMouse]

I did not know she was his wife.

I think she was right? If not, oops.

Edit: oh right.

 

[Minion101]

So... do we think Melisandre knew everything that was going to go down? Or at least knew she was misleading Stannis?

She looked like she was losing faith.

 

[Curufinwe]

The show is the same as it's ever been.

God damn he is beautiful. <3

I don't think she duped Stannis. I think they both learned that, in a war, serving the Lord of Light doesn't mean fuck all if you can't keep the loyalty of your men.

Like the selfish prick he is, Stannis tried to run for the easy way by using more of Melissandre's blood magic. But he never stopped to think that maybe, just maybe, his sell swords would be disgusted by a man willing to burn his own daughter alive.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

I don't even think I'll watch this episode. This show has become a parody of itself and tries too hard to be depressing. Not spending anymore time on it.

 

[Infernostew]

Hahaha at all the people who are like "you killed my favorite character, i'm done". No one is safe. Jon had a nice run but his fate was always sealed up at the wall. No way he'd survive against the walkers long anyway.

 

[BSsBrolly]

I feel like Jons story has too many loose ends left untied. Uncle Benjin, his mom (and maybe even his father). No way he stays dead.

 

[Dice//]

I'm not terribly hot-blooded about the "Sansa rape" situation as much as I think it's weird when stuff like this is happening outside of the books. Then I raise an eyebrow; and yeah I could see it being a bit aggravating to add "sad shit for the sake of it" (** if I'm wrong about any of this let me know, I haven't read the books)

 

[the_firewithin]

So... do we think Melisandre knew everything that was going to go down? Or at least knew she was misleading Stannis?

I think she believed right until half the army bolted

 

[ryseing]

I think she was right? If not, oops.

Oberyn's paramour.

 

[n00bsauce87]

Lord of Light brought back Beric Dondarrion...IN RED LADY WE TRUST

Pretty much this.

The clues?

Melissandre has a blood magic spell to use because she sacrificed shereen.

The night watch didn't burn Jon Snow which is what you are supposed to do.

Bolton flags are supposed to burn, Jon will be burning them.

 

[iNvid02]

I get the feeling that she will. There has to be a reason she returned to the Night's Watch and ditched Stannis, right?
.

she looked visibly shaken so faith in stannis and maybe even lord of light lost. shes only demonstrated that shes good at taking life thus far, if jon is going to be revived then i cant see her doing shit aside from getting that beric guy involved - maybe they are two sides of the same coin in taking life and returning it via lord of light?

on the bright side at least they didnt behead him. jesus lol

 

[Infernostew]

I feel like Jons story has too many loose ends left untied. Uncle Benjin, his mom (and maybe even his father). No way he stays dead.

Benjin is long dead. His mom is some tavern wench who's probably dead. These things are kind of useless to learn in the grand scheme of things.

 

[ComputerBlue]

I don't think she duped Stannis. I think they both learned that, in a war, serving the Lord of Light doesn't mean fuck all if you can't keep the loyalty of your men.

Exactly. The man is an idiot and so is Meli.

I really don't see how that was never considered by either of them. That these sacrifices would have other consequences especially considering that so many of those men weren't of the same faith.

They might be sell swords but everyone has boundaries.

[TheLostBigBoss]

I feel like Jons story has too many loose ends left untied. Uncle Benjin, his mom (and maybe even his father). No way he stays dead.

Which is why I hope he stays dead.

Just like Jon, people are looking for the bigger picture when the more dangerous things were right in front of you.

 

[Scrooged]

So... do we think Melisandre knew everything that was going to go down? Or at least knew she was misleading Stannis?

Nah, she looked legit shook. The vision she saw was most likely someone else's victory. Or the Lord of Light was messing with her because other things are in motion and Stannis had to lose.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Melissandre has a blood magic spell to use because she sacrificed shereen.

That blood magic melted the snow.

 

[Mad Season]

Reviving Jon seems too easy. You really think they'd do that?

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

That blood magic melted the snow.

...Or the weather changed

 

[Vestal]

Pretty much this.

The clues?

Melissandre has a blood magic spell to use because she sacrificed shereen.

The night watch didn't burn Jon Snow which is what you are supposed to do.

Bolton flags are supposed to burn, Jon will be burning them.

His watch has ended, now rise and take your place as the true King of the North. Like I said in the other thread, it would be a way to get around the oath of the Watch.

 

[Zeliard]

So... do we think Melisandre knew everything that was going to go down? Or at least knew she was misleading Stannis?

Melisandre looked genuinely rattled once she heard that half of Stannis' army had deserted. I think she has her own agenda, but that agenda at least at the time centered on Stannis, and what happened is something she definitely was not expecting.

 

[dLMN8R]

I'm starting to think that the White Walkers are actually the power of "light" and good since humans are all fucking trash!

 

[Kusagari]

We could see actual growth in Mel's character if she does revive Jon and decides to back him against the Walkers.

He is not going to go along with the whole burning shit like Stannis did.

 

[ComputerBlue]

...Or the weather changed

Definitely, lol.

I'm just too bummed out to have hope.

 

[soundscream]

Hahaha at all the people who are like "you killed my favorite character, i'm done". No one is safe. Jon had a nice run but his fate was always sealed up at the wall. No way he'd survive against the walkers long anyway.

It's not about favorite characters being killed, it's about unresolved plot points. Which is why I don't think he is done.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Reviving Jon seems too easy. You really think they'd do that?

Sure.

If they were good at writing season enders they wouldn't have left it as a cliff hanger, Meli would have walked up and said something like "The Lord of Light is not finished with you yet" and revived him.

 

[Nameless]

That blood magic melted the snow.

...so she could get to The Wall.

The Lord works in mysterious ways indeed.

 

[Phionoxx]

So... Sansa and Theon are dead, right? You don't jump off the wall of a castle into a sheet of ice waiting below and survive that.... right?

 

[Scrooged]

I'm starting to think that the White Walkers are actually the power of "light" and good since humans are all fucking trash!

If he dies I might cry like a baby.

 

[Raynes]

Completely unconvinced Jon is dead.

 

[RiderKairuu]

So... Sansa and Theon are dead, right? You don't jump off the wall of a castle into a sheet of ice waiting below and survive that.... right?

You ever play Assassin's Creed? Leap of faith..

Spoiler

I believe!

 

[iNvid02]

season 6 opens with jons mutilated corpse on a pike to dispel all resurrection theories

So... Sansa and Theon are dead, right? You don't jump off the wall of a castle into a sheet of ice waiting below and survive that.... right?

if the ice melted for the battle to take place then there is deep snow below

 

[Scrooged]

So... Sansa and Theon are dead, right? You don't jump off the wall of a castle into a sheet of ice waiting below and survive that.... right?

A ton of snow had piled up against the walls. They're safe.

 

[ntropy]

So... Sansa and Theon are dead, right? You don't jump off the wall of a castle into a sheet of ice waiting below and survive that.... right?

theon will break her fall most likely

 

[bender]

Happy Jon is dea...

Completely unconvinced Jon is dead.

Don't play with my heart like that.

theon will break her fall most likely

Doubtful. Anything bad that can happen to Sansa usually does.
