Speaking of him, did Cersei and the others even know he got knocked off in Braavos?
You know KahooTs, the winds of Winter really are blowing at us now.

yeah seems like it's way too soon. Probably the midseason finale next year if they do split it into 2 mini seasons or whatever.
Because happiness can't last long. Just after the Starks get back in their castle, the Wall will be breached. They need something huge to keep us talking until next season.
This is when Dany comes over and the Dothraki go around destroying everything. (Or does she do that after the White Walker storyline is over?)
Before my father, stepmother, and baby brother were all simultaneously poisoned by our enemies, I made them a promise. I promised that I would always honor our traditions. After all, traditions are important. Where are we without our history?
When the free folk come south of the wall, they're not sending their best wildlings. Just a bunch of murderers and rapists. Thenns mostly. They eat people. Do you want your children to be eaten?
I love the free folk. I do. The good ones, anyway. I just think that until we figure all this out, we should put a stop to all wildlings coming south of the wall.
My buddy Smalljon Umber and I have a special camp for flay...I mean fleeing Wildlings to find a home. Yes, they can come here and be safe from the whitewalkers. I have 20 good men ready to put them back to work.
Come and see.
I'm Ramsay Bolton and I approved this message.
Bran will somehow be the cause.
Nahh, Dany's dragons have to play a key role in fighting the Walkers. No other way that'll go down.

I also think the season will end with dany finally making her move to westeros with the help of yara/theon.
Dany's dragons burn the wall down because her dragons are evil.

I wonder if Theon and crew will replace the scene from the book of Danni saying "ew gross no" to joining forces because Theon is dull or something.
Can they get there that soon? Wait, nevermind, I forgot what show we were talking about. Fast travel, biatches! Click, click. NOW LOADING.
Wasn't he marked? which took away the magical protection from the tree? will do the same to the wall

This theory makes no sense to me. Why didn't they just "mark" any random dude north of the Wall so that he would go back over and magically remove its protection? Like for example the guy in the very first scene of the very first episode, who met them and then returned south of the Wall to be killed by Ned.
Because the show spent a gigantic amount of money on a CGI Nights King just creating an earthquake that shattered ice and affected the cave where his magic shouldn't have been able to penetrate. First rule of cable shows, if something seems random, out of place or costs a lot, there is a reason they did it.
Benjen basically told Bran the Night King is making his way towards Man and you have to be there. Bran's mark will probably remove the protection of the wall.
There is 1-2 seasons of story left. Winter is coming and it will probably come by the end of the 10th episode.
You'd be surprised if there show hand waved a mistake?

We don't know the full aspect of the history of White Walkers or even Bran's story. What is more significant for the show and story, that the Night King brands Bran Stark, blood of the first men and the new three eyed raven or some random human? Why did they try to turn Benjen into a white walker but keep the rest of humans and wildlings as wights? Why was the Night King viewing Jon so intently. The Stark motto Winter is Coming is signifant. What if Bran is the one who time travels and tells his ancestor that Winter is coming and they have to prepare and build the wall etc. We just don't know, but that whole scene had signifance.

Wants to outlaw technological innovation.
I think the main idea is that it brings an end to Bran's arc for the season, plus Jon telling Edd just to make sure the wall doesn't fall down. I'm kind of 50/50 on it myself. I think it could happen next season, maybe the first episode or so.
This makes me so excited. I just don't know how much exposition will be in the show. Fingers crossed!
I think they'll probably have a big scene in the finale of Sam montaging his way through books before he discovers something like "Oh my goodness I know where all the dragonglass is!"
"Are you saying there's dragonglass hidden inside the Wall?"
"No Jon, I'm saying it IS dragonglass! The entire Wall is dragonglass! We gotta break it down!"
I was thinking all the dragonglass is hidden away in the ruins of old Valyria, but this is probably what they'll do.

Keep in mind Dorne will come back into the picture somehow. No way they just ignore it forever after all that garbage early on. There's still so many threads that it makes no sense for the wall to come down just yet. Yara/Theon using their fast travel and joining up with Dany and then using fast travel to go back to their previous savepoint with her and her army will be great.
But what will Euron do?

who the fuck is that
he'll probably be unceremoniously killed by someone and that will be that. Wouldn't be new for this show to introduce a character and imply a bigger role and then off em.
I don't understand why they included him. Or Dorne, for that matter.

That episode 10 title is just cruel....

it's the closest you'll get to that title coming out
The Winds of Winter is being released on June 26 2016.
Episode titles in Game of Thrones:
"You Win or You Die"
"Baelor"
"Blackwater"
"The Bear and the Maiden Fair"
"The Rains of Castamere"
"The Mountain and the Viper"
"Hardhome"
"The Door"
Just some examples of titles which are very direct titles based on a central event in the episode, which fans or attentive viewers will "get" either before or after the episode. This is not a subtle show!
