Game of Thrones as always lots of spoilers

Well, if they lived up to her hype, the 62 men she provided fought like 620 men.
At least one made it to Winterfell, or at least his shield did as Jon used a shield with a bear on it to pummel Ramsey.
it's been a very lady-centric season, which someone else may have mentioned earlier. Strong showings from Sansa, Arya, the Sand Snakes, Asha, Little Mormont and of course Danearys.
I'm thinking Cersei will flex some power this Sunday.
Wish we had seen some of Lady Stoneheart........

Wouldn't it be a strange twist if Lady Mormont ended up being the one left standing when all is said and done? Sure is a little badass.
This tracks the books. GRRM's entire series is around 60/40 for m/f POV chapters. Certainly a lot more even than many fantasy books. Nerd link
I think Arya ends up as the last one standing...I would say Bran, but there are obvious issues there lol
Cersei shoukd be ok. Remember that her kids are suppose to die before her... I think she will burn everything to the ground and kill her son in the process. The High Sparrow and his followers will die as well.
As far as the rest... I have no idea.
We will see the Tower of Joy again?
Will we finally see Dani and her army sail to West?
Lots of loose ties. Good thing this one is extra long ep!
Can't wait!

Good point on the timing of Cersei's demise. And loving the extra length of this episode.
Time for Football, I will miss GOT. Great finale Arya being the best surprise. That was fantastic. Sansa, still can't be trusted.
Loved Arya's resurgence! Well done. And awesome resolution to the High Sparrow storyline. :fire:
I know that is very likely, but still no 100% confirmation via the TV show or books.
RT + LS = JS has been batted about for close to 20 years on fan sites. Pretty sure we just saw that money shot. For some who have been around that long, to see that AND see the Late Walder Frey now officially late, it's pretty sweet. I hate to say it, but this year officially kicked the books' slow ass. Starting to lose faith in the old man. Prove me wrong George. Please.
The writers have said that the different story lines are not taking place at the same time or at the same rate.
Can somebody tell me what the nun was screaming about???? From all I saw The mountain was just standing over her. Was it just that his face was just so horrible???
She always looks hot to me, but you're right. Same with Sansa when she puts on the black gear.
There was a lot of speculation on this but most said it was Ned hooking up with a Targaryan during the war. Very early in the first season we saw Robert Baratheon lament Ned's sister Lyanna's passing and later comments about Targaryan being responsible. But in terms of Jon Snow's parentage this was all but forgotten (apparently only forgotten by me now that I read all the reviews of the speculation and recounting the hints)
Now just remember that Bran saw this and he is going to return to Winterfell and/or Castle Black.. and all will soon know Jon may be MORE than King of the North. And since Targayans like to "keep it in the family".. maybe Dany's in his future too. Maybe they fly off on dragons for their honeymoon.
The return of the green fire... well predicted by many.
Arya's appearance in this episode.. as soon as Frey said .. "You're not one of my usual.." I nearly leaped out of my chair knowing it was Arya.
So much good stuff in this episode... BUT.. and it is a big BUT...
I am worried that there is not too much story left the way things are going. That is.. what oposition can there be to Dany's forces now?
Way back when you had a bunch of houses..representing.. (from wiki)
House Arryn, rulers of the Vale of Arryn from the castle of the Eyrie.
House Baratheon, the Seven Kingdoms royal house from the Red Keep and rulers of the Stormlands from the castle of Storm's End.
House Baratheon of King's Landing, rulers of the Crownlands from the castle of the Red Keep in King's Landing, and the de jure royal house.
House Frey, rulers of the Riverlands from The Twins.
House Greyjoy, rulers of the Iron Islands from the castle of Pyke. Currently in rebellion against the Iron Throne.
House Lannister, rulers of the Westerlands from the castle of Casterly Rock.
House Stark, rulers of the North from the castle of Winterfell in defiance of the Iron Throne.
House Tyrell, rulers of the Reach from the castle of Highgarden in defiance of the Iron Thrones
And add in Targaryens.. amd summery hot Dorne.
And there was some balance with houses sitting out the succession wars.. but the Stark/Tullys were beating the Lannisters and all their allies until the defections took place. And we know the Lannisters and the Iron Throne itself is bankrupt. And the houses sitting out.. the Reach and Dorne are all now with Dany/Targaryens and the Vale is with the Starks.. at least for now. And the Lannister's military leader, Jamie, is going to be highly distracted with his sister on the Throne and his offspring all dead now.
And Dany has dragons.
The Lannisters are doomed.. no?
I can see it now, the attacking armies are all over King's Landing and into the Red Keep and Cercie orders the stores of Wyldfire exploded to destroy the whole city... and Jaime has to kill her too!
Is this all just leading up to a unified kingdom facing the White Walker army?
That is big.. but where's the fun stuff GoT is famous for then? The political intrigue, etc. The fun has been seeing each side thinking they know whats going on and scheming then then being "surprised". The whitewalker side has no politiics.
Maybe that's what is giving GRRM so much trouble getting to his ending books. He planned for 7 and maybe there is only 6 in his story.

On further review.. I guess I just completely forgot about that theory with everything else that was going on, but even using the hints strewn about in the HBO series, there has been much speculation that Eddard was not Job's dad.
Here is a slide show of the hilights
I especially like the last slide focusing on the name of the series of books.. "A Song of Ice and Fire"... and the possibility that Rhaegar (who seems to have been a gifted singer and honorable knight) did not rape Lyanna. If he does hook up with Dany it will be a nephew/aunt pairing. Ewww.

Arya's kill list is down from 11 to now only 6 remaining. 4 are dead (2 by Arya's hand) and one was voluntarily removed from the list by Arya (The Hound).

I assume the Dornish and reach fleets joined up with Dany/Yara fleets. I suppose a still image on the various sails might provide that clue.
This is from an earlier episode and I am pretty sure I saw ships like this Dornish merchant in the fleet..
I do find it odd that the Dornish/Reach fleets would bother to meet up at sea rather than just arrive at a targeted landing place. And since the Khalasar are going to have a hard time at seas, I would assume they should land in a friendly port like Sunspear or Old Town and then proceed on land once the Khalasar have recovered... so why sail at all? Dorn is probably too much desert for the horses. So Old Town and north along the west coast. Dispatch Euron along the way.
I have always thought the song "Rains of Castamere" would one day apply to the Lannisters as well.
A coat of gold, a coat of red,
a lion still has claws.
And mine are long and sharp, my lord,
as long and sharp as yours.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke,
that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep oer his hall,
with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
and not a soul to hear.
Methinks dragons destroy Casterly Rock and all the Lannister/"Barratheon" kids are dead. Uncle and cousin Lancel dead. "Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall, and not a soul to hear."
But I suppose a small light fast packet ship who have ferried Varys with the news of the deal.

They are moving at light speed for sure. The next two seasons are going to be shorter but I hope there won't be a huge delay between them if that is the case. From what I read, there are only 13 eps left in the whole show now.
We know for sure now who Jon Mom was, a Stark, Ned's sister. Irony here is that Lyanna Mormont may have help crown him the king of the North and she was named after his mom Lyanna Stark.
I think that most people have a very good idea on who is dad is, but it has yet to be 100% confirmed. Dani is his aunt? Will we have a family reunion or will he get stabbed in the back by his sister.. er .. cousin. Littlefinger will try hard to get into her head, that's for sure.
Cersei is finally starting to act like her book counterpart who was always that evil from the start (even as a little girl). The TV show version was always super nice when compared to the book version. That whole thing was awesome, btw. Loved how it all played out.
I guess we also got a halfhearted version of the Dorne master plan (the book version of this is a lot better, but the end result I suppose will be the same).
Arya Stark was the one that bake some Frey Pies, in the book it is someone else. I like this version better.
Dani is finally heading West!!!!

The music and scene setting during the trial/wild fire scenes was amazingly good.
Someone mentioned a unified Westeros vs the White Walkers as a possible end game. Never thought of that before, but it's more than plausible. Whatever happens in upcoming seasons, I hope they continue the mic-drop scenes for Lady Mormont.
Anyone know when production/filming start for S7?
