Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Maybe Dany and Yara will begin a poly-amorous relationship with Ellaria in Season 7. Benioff and Weiss, feel free to use this idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,373 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I think Bran is the only one who knows, and he'll get the word to Sansa/Jon in Winterfell somehow What Sam might find out in Oldtown is if Rhaegar and Lyanna were married or not, as that's the difference between Jon being a bastard or a trueborn king Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I just hope there's an interesting endgame for this plot twist, otherwise what's the point? To me, Jon sitting on the Iron Throne is not an interesting endgame. I want to be surprised! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,373 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I don't think any of the established characters sitting on the Iron Throne would be a satisfying end game. The destruction of the kingdom-wide monarchy and setup of each of the 7 Kingdoms having their own ruler, perhaps? Disco Stu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,352 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Finally got around to watching the season 6 finale. As a result, I can't write any coherent review because all I can really think of is that cello cue, so some random thoughts will have to do: - The trial cue was amazing. - Is it me, or are the choirs they use in GOT nearly always sub standard and does Djawadi's style always totally change for finales? - I find Jon Snow's revival cheap, but Mellisandra's language is pretty cool there. - I still hate Cersei, but liked her in the finale. - Hodor's death was soooo sad. - Can someone work on a cut where the Waif doesn't spend hours and hours beating Arya? Having said that, that storyline sucks. - The flahsback result didn't surprise me at all since my brother has been telling me about fan theories on this subject for a year. - I still want Ros back.

Miz 139 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I think I agree with all those points. I also think this Season 6 album is the best of them all. I like the developments of so many themes and I've listened to this album more than the others combined - infact, as an album, where I just selected mp3s from the previous 5 albums.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Yeah I understand the reasoning intellectually, but it still takes me out of the experience while watching the episode.

Glóin the Dark 1,223 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 About that, I still think what I thought at the time: having an actor, whose character was clearly dead, show up on set in costume was one many small efforts made towards obfuscation of the main issue that people were interested in during that production period. On 6/27/2016 at 3:58 AM, Jay said: Funny how we tried to figured out who'd be king if Tommen died but didn't think what if Margaery died too. I thought the "line of succession" discussion was purely theoretical! Margaery's fate in Episode 10 was already pretty well known, by that stage, to anyone following the production closely enough without spoiler aversion. In any case, I think the outcome in King's Landing confirms that (at least in the show's world) the line of succession doesn't count for a lot compared to the ability (or the apparent ability) to take and hold power by force...

It's not that I went reading spoilers and leaks impetuously or without consideration. I generally avoid spoilers for films or TV programmes which I'm likely to watch. For Seasons 2 and 3 of Game of Thrones, I avoided spoilers like the plague; I'd no idea what this "Red Wedding" thing was until about nine months after most of the rest of you. But, at this stage, I'm simply not in it for the (potential) thrill that can come from not knowing what will happen - something which is really only relevant for the first viewing anyway.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 So is there a GoT OST track that even comes close to being as good as "Light of the Seven"? I've never paid much attention to the music in the show over the past 5 years since I started watching (outside of the main theme of course) but I have to admit "Light of the Seven" is just a fantastic cue. I find myself on the verge of actually buying the Season 6 soundtrack! It helps that it's only $9.99 on Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
