So this season we are going to see D&D complete their ruining of Jamie's arc, right?
It'll probably be mostly the same except the impact is dampened by Jamie banging Cersei and defending her at the start of the season again. It'll feel too sudden when he finally says fuck it.
Changing Jamie and Tyrion's interaction at the end of S4 is the root cause of Jamie's shit arc in the show.
What could
around 1:45?

Yes! That's what I'm going with now. I def think that's the likeliest theory

The trailer made it look like Tyrion would do a Quentyn and try to free the dragons.
Could also be Jaime wrestling with his failure to save Myrcella and reflecting on past oaths with Aerys and Catelyn, especially since we're apparently getting an
Aerys flashback
Also, Home seems like it could be Dany getting to Vaes Dothrak, given the dialogue in that clip of her meeting the Khal.
Any chance Walder get red weddinged? What's the meaning of the burning Xs? They look too small to be flaying posts. Is Jaime at Casterly Rock? It looks like the unsullied and the faith militant get fucked up fairly quickly this season. Where is the location of the bloody hand near the end?

You can see Meera hiding off to the right of this picture, so she's probably reacting to whatever is attacking/defending her.
I doubt we'll see a Red Wedding 2.0 this season, but it's possible. Xs are definitely flaying posts, the scale just looks off because the camera is so far out. Jaime is in the Riverlands or at the Twins, you can see Lannister soldiers in Walder Frey's hall.
1. looks like it, Frey pies maybe? 
2. They are shot from a long distance, they are definitely flaying posts.
3. dunno
4.When have the unsullied not suck in this show?
5. I think its Mereen

As soon as I can get a good close-up of Mace, I'm afraid it's goodbye to my Varys avatar.

Why do I feel the hype? I dont want to
Walder Frey must be biting it this year. I hope it's creative.
Her time will come.
It looks like they might be adding some much needed flare to how they film the fight scenes.
Maybe it'll just be a quick shadow flashback in Bran's visions.
Mace is nothing short of magnificent.
He will fucking return!
One of the things I'm most excited about as well as Davos' probable involvement.
I don't know what the fuck is going on with any of them up there.

I would assume Jon Snow will flank the Bolton army in that scene where the Wildings get cornered
Cpt.Underpants

I think it would more like
Wildlings will fight the Bolton army alongside Davos and a few Stark loyalists w/o Jon because he's still stone cold dead
Someone revives Jon Snu and musters an army of beliebers and loyalists as well.
Wildlings are at the cusp of getting their asses kicked and along comes Jon steam rolling the Bolton army

I was already planning a Jon Snow comes back as Gandalf the White gif, now I gotta do a Jon Snow pulling a Gandalf at Helm's Deep gif too?

Misread.
I don't understand then. The Siege of Riverrun has long since passed the point where it makes sense, since it was directly related to the Freys taking power.
Sansa speculation based on rumours;
Do we have any idea what E9 is going to be?
Last season, I wondered if they were building up to Sansa being the vengeful Stark women.
Seeing this trailer, and what we've gathered from info out there, does anyone else think they'll merge her story line with LSH? Maybe not the whole "stringing Freys up from trees", but definitely orchestrating a Red Wedding 2.0. With Brienne, possibly the BWOB and the lessons learnt from Littlefinger, I wouldn't put it past her to exploit such a situation.

I AM HYPED AS FUCK
Siege of Riverrun looks like it's pretty close to the books. Blackfish really has been holding Riverrun against the Freys for three years now, and no one's bothered to mention it. Sansa is staying in the North to deal with the Boltons this season for sure. She sends Brienne to the Riverlands for reasons that are unclear.
The last time anyone mentioned Bryden Tully on the show was when Walder Frey called him an old man with no allies, on the run.
You'd think that would have at least made a decent topic for the small council.
They really could have used some small council scenes to establish this stuff they knew they were delaying to season six. Like, one scene of Pycelle or Qyburn or something giving the rundown of the Riverlands situation with Freys, Tullys, and Brotherhood. Then Cersei could just dismiss it all as a problem for the Freys. Done.

Sansa looks so good. I am so excited for her to get her revenge.

I really like this idea, and haven't thought of it before. Would make sense since they cut that character out and they like to have one character absorb another's arc. Might just make up for the marriage to Ramsay.

Haven't kept up with the Off Season thread. Has anyone confirmed that Ian McShane is one of
?
Septon Meribald/Elder Brother/Both
He pretty much confirmed in an interview that he's at least some sort of riff on those characters.
