>In the Game of Thrones you win or you die

Seriously?
>>63383750
>who is thoros of myr
>>63383750
Jon doesn't play the game
The whole point of the wall is that you're taken out of the game for the throne.
I'm amazed the normies are still buying the "anyone can die" meme.
It's obvious who the main characters are and that they'll make it at least until the very final moments of the series.
>>63383750
did they really maded it to release in april?
>>63383811
yeah
but when you die your 'watch has ended' and if you get resurrected you're free to continue playing
although I doubt anyone would buy that he really died in the first place, and will just consider him a crow that deserted
He wasn't a player. What happens on the Wall stays on the Wall. Nobody expects the White Walkers or the fact that their religion is wrong.
>>63383750
It's not the original story's fault that they decided to name the whole TV series after the first book when the title of the first book ceases to be relevant later on because - surprise - it was the first book in the series and not indicative of the overall plot.
>>63383860
>implying Melly will resurrect him
>implying she won't fail because she's a shit magician incapable of giving life, and then he'll warg back into his dead body after a day and start banging on the ice-cell door
I mean they won't be taking orders from him, but I don't think they'll hold him to his oath when he's got no warm blood left in him.
>>63383964
why would they not burn his body?
If you still plan to watch GOT after the abomination of a last season, you might as well invite a pack of refugees in your home to take care of your girls.
>>63384167
Targaryens can't be harmed by fire.
>>63384167
im watching it ironically now, so i can see how bad it gets and memepost about it on here
>>63384167
>season full of buildup to next season
>stop watching halfway
lmao, retard.
>>63384167
First 4 episodes were good.
>>63384195
Is that why Aemon's body was burned after he died?
>>63383964
Or maybe Bran will warg into it.
>In the Game of Thrones you either die on the throne or live long enough to become the throne
Fucking really?
>>63384325
He wasn't like a true one you know like Dany.
>>63384414
so moving the goalposts
>>63384461
That's kinda what the show's become. Everything they do has to be one-upped next episode, next season, etc. I'm convinced that many of the deaths have just been shock value for exactly that reason.
>>63384195
>>63384414
Aemon was a true Targ and they aren't immune to fire. It was the magic that brought the dragons back that kept her safe from the flames you dumb shit.
>>63383823
Normalfags are what ruined this series, where
were they when the books weren't a TV show?
>>63383860
Jon is more than likely going to warg into Stannis at some point during Winds.
>>63384538
Cept she gets burned once before that when she grabs the eggs in her tent.
Also I didn't say he wasn't a true one. Just not a dragon. Dany's brother was the same way.
>>63384608
Or rather, doesn't get burned. But her handmaiden does. That's before the dragons are back.
>>63384538
it was Mirri Maz Durr attempting to cast a fire resistance spell on herself but fucking it up because she started to get burned before finishing it, so it affected Dany instead. that's why Mirri boasted that she would "never hear her scream".
>>63384598
>Jon is more than likely going to warg into Stannis
why is that 'more than likely'?
>>63383913
A name is just a name cunt, just like your mom's name is "Fat Pussy"
>>63383750
>kills a character only to have them come back in the next episode
This is CW-tier writing
>>63383860
He's just going to warg into ghost.
>>63384808

Cunt.
is the next book still not fucking out yet?
>>63384982
>>63383772
>>63383811
>supporting stannis
>not playing the game
>>63384195
sigh. yes they can. Gurm already stated Dany's fire resistance was a one-time thing
see Tragedy at Summerhall
>>63385662
>one time thing
literally selective plot armour
>>63385611
Are you kidding? Stannis shows up out of fucking nowhere and helps without Jon asking him. Jon then refuses to officially ally with Stannis even when offered a lordship.
You should be able to tell that Jon isn't "playing the game" even if you haven't read the books.
>>63385662
It happened twice. I'm gonna use what actually happens for my support.
FOR THE WATCH
based scene
>>63384280
>Barristan dying
>good
>>63385773
This. Anyone who says that scene is bad can go suck a dick. Based D&D.
If Jon Snow rises from the dead and avenges himself by slaughtering the entire nights watch, it will be the only interesting thing his character has done on the show. Fuck Jon Snow.
>>63385816
>Barristan said to be an amazing fighter
>dies
Shut up. His death was pottery; a lifting of the veil that masked his lack of skill or talent. It's the same for every supposed great warrior, they're just frauds
>>63385904
>>63385773
It would have been based if it had not contained that stupid fucking little kid. In fact, removing his character entirely would have vastly improved the Wall arc.
It's become apparent that all along the only reason main characters had been killed off up to this point was to make this reveal a bigger deal.
>>63385939
his character was completely ruined by the show, fuck D and D
>>63383750
It's Cersei who says it. When we get a look into her POV it shows that she has a flawed perception of reality and her own worth, so she deals with absolutes. She never has any consideration for magic, the unexplainable, just power and how it has corrupted her and twisted her. That's why the phrase "you win or you die" applies perfectly with her in power based relationships, because that's how she handles them.
>>63386038
so cersei was a sith lord all along
>>63385939
He a Targ now....He a Targ.
>>63383750
i just finished bingewatching this series and i was surprised by the lack of character deaths. I remember people going mad about how frequently the characters died. The walking dead has more character deaths per 2 episodes than an entire season of got
>>63385723
>>63385686
Wut is unexpected Blood magic.
It's not a one time thing, though it was probably uncontrollable and incredibly difficult to repeat.
>>63386056
From her point of view, the Starks, Baratheons, Tyrells, Tyrion, Varys, Uncle Kevan, Maggie the Frog, and most everyone but herself are evil.
desu I lost all interest in the series after catelyn was resurrected. What is the point? it's just another bullshit fantasy series like malazan
>>63386165
imo it was people that never really got over the shock of Ned Stark's death so early.

>>63386349
>buzzwords
I wonder if they will resurrect him the first episode.
>>63386301
going in I thought neds death would be in season 5 or 6 because of how much people were talking about it, so that makes sense
Worst characters are plot-armored as fuck
>Daenerys
>Arya
>Jon Snow
And they're viewers 'favorites. Nothing new.
>>63386588
You can only kill so many main characters before you simply don't have a story anymore.
>season one
>death is always logically structured and connected to an identifable path of decisions, while sometimes surprising always rational
>season five
>Lord Commander Jon Snow is stabbed to death after leading a successful military campaign against an unfathomable for because "a little kid was sad about his Dad so everybody decided to stab him to death out of nowhere"
Fuck this show
>>63386668
He's also stabbed to death after he's already let a host of wildlings through his fortress, the current leader of which considers Jon a personal friend
>>63386668
Ignore the little kid bullshit, he isn't in the books and it's best to pretend he isn't real.
It really happens because Jon's army of convicted criminals doesn't understand what's going on with the undead army. All they see is their Commander letting the enemies they've fought for years and have killed their friends past their gates and giving them free reign over a huge swathe of land. Even risking NW mens' lives in order to save wildlings at Hardhome.
Basically it boils down to uneducated criminals not being smart.
>>63386795
okay but what about Thorne
>Sam is a better player than you
>>63386795
That isn't it you fucking retard. The straw that broke the camel's back was the letter that not-Ramsay sent to Jon and Jon declaring that he intended to march the Night's Watch against the Boltons. They were fine with everything up until that point and its why they call him an oathbreaker at the end.
>>63386795
I can appreciate that and really I was being a touch pedantic but really that's not a better explanation.
After finally gripping the terror of the WW and witnessing Jons bravery and military prowess, as well as acknowledging the NW's lack of leadership, not trusting Jon isn't logical for the bulk of characters. That's why they added the stupid little kid, to try and add an emotional component to a weak motivation to kill Jon.
>>63386828
Thorne likes Jon in the books. Everyone likes Jon in the books but they kill him for trying to turn the Night's Watch against Westeros.
>>63386918
Oh yeah, that did happen. Everything I said is still true, but that part is important and I should have mentioned it.
>>63386952

>>63385713
Wut? Not that guy but Jon goes out of his way to help Stannis.
He even thinks to himself that he's breaking his vows of neutrality, he's constantly helping Stannis. He tells him how to get the Mountain Clans to ally with him, he warns Stannis of the Karstark's upcoming betrayal, and he gives Stannis advice about where to attack first.
Jon was definitely getting involved

The connections between actual history is fascinating and part of the show's appeal.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Bartholomew's_Day_massacre
The actions, betrayal and deception of the Red Wedding was centered around the real events of the Saint Bartholomew's massacre. It isn't a "lol kill everyone because I'm a meme writer", it's a demonstration of actual atrocity or corruption.
>>63383823
Sure, Daenerys, Tyrion and Jon Snow. Pretty much anyone else can die and have the story follow it's path without any troubles. You could argue Bran too, but I don't even think he will be returning to Westeros any other time.
>>63393494
>white walkers
>dragons
>prophecies
>warging

"No". Read some of Bran's chapters, he even knows when Ned dies
>>63391510
Jon gave Stannis WAY too much advice and help. He should've kept his mouth shut.
>>63394013
Come off it
I'll admit there are a few brief mentions of a couple of fantasy elements but they are nothing more than unseen mentions
anyone else hoping for leaks like this season, fuckin waiting 1 week for 35min etertainment
>>63394184
Bran literally wargs into his wolf, Dany walks into a fire and births dragons, and Bran is already communicating with Bloodraven.
It's not as in your face and common, but it's not as if the fantasy elements aren't already there
>>63393936
Arya, simply because so much of her story has no connection to anyone else and if she died, it would be a waste of some 500 pages.
>>63394184
>unseen mentions
we have seen them all you fucking idiot
>>63394240
I'm 99% sure Arya's arc will end with her dying and warging into her Wolf for a second life.
Fitting that after all that time she finally "finds her pack" and has family to live with. Feels like a perfect bittersweet end for her story that Gurm would go with
>>63394281
She won't die until she has been with another important character like Jon, Tyrion or Daenerys for a few chapters at least, is my point. So she'll probably make it to the last bookif we'll ever get it.
>>63394183
I'd probably have done the same in Jon's position. I mean he knows the Boltons are scum, and they killed most of his family.
It's not like most of the Watch aren't constantly breaking their vows anyway, going to fuck whores or trying to rape women. Even Thorne hates Jon largely because he's still a Targ loyalist and blames the Starks etc for sticking him at the wall

It's not much, but better than nothing. I was really bummed they didn't do a cast introduction video at comic-con like they always have. Does anyone have a guess when the season 6 trailer will come out? I'm going to go look at what time of the year the other trailers came out
>>63395822
Filming still isn't done, it's taken longer this year due to the extra filming locations and some delays.
So I would guess February
>>63395822

my boiiiii
not even hoverhanding, take a lesson virgins.
Well, when you reduce the original story to a soap opera that hinges almost entirely on the who-dies-next hook, it seems a bit silly to resurrect someone. The original story, as found in the books, has a bit more to hold it together.
>>63397642

After reading World of Ice and Fire, I can claim with 100% certainly that Varys is indeed a merman. Mermans are most definitely a thing and anyone who laughs at the merman theory is a bit of an idiot, desu senpai.

>>63398311
Seeing as I don't know what the fuck mermen want, I can't really say. Ask the fat man.
But if I had to guess... Well, this entire world hinges on the balance between others and dragons. Once upon a time, dragons ruled everything and it was a pretty shitty place. When others take over, I guess it's equally shitty. I guess people topside are kind of fucking with the balance by having all these dragons killed off, so others started to resurface. Mermen come in and decide to harness Dany's dragons to fend off the others before shit becomes cold. Fire + Ice =W A T E R, illuminati confirmed, it was a dream all along, pure pottery.
>Gurm still spending every day travelling around and writing essays on the Hugo awards
Fuck sake
>>63398461
Grmrmrm is not actually as slow as people claim he is. Someone compared how fast Harry Potter was written and made a per-page comparison with SOIAF and it checked out pretty similar. Now keep in mind SOIAF must be a massive bitch to write, especially for an old guy. Let him be, he'll deliver eventually.
