I think we've passed the point where people are just thinking of the most unpopular thing they can think of without actually making sense/believing in them

3) Arya will murder Sansa


as proof that she has given up her past completely? I think she has too much Stark in her to take out a family member for the Faceless Men.

I could see her getting assigned a Stark to prove her loyalty, but not goin through with it.

Hiding needle is what shows she will never give up on her past life for the faceless men imo

I've said Arya will murder Sansa since the butcher's boy lie. i don't know how it will be spun. I just have a feeling that this would be a major twist for GRRM. Maybe,

Arya finds out that Sansa is now married to the people that killed the majority of her family.

The faceless men want to take out the evil heir to warden of the north and his queen.

Maybe Arya attempts to kill Sansa but is instead killed by Sansa unknowingly (faceless)

This is my theory. She will avenge Renly the Gay.




I see this happening with Davos there to take her out right after.

I could see arya becoming a serial killer.

I rewatched the episode where she kills Polliver last night

I am pretty sure her bits were tingling.

The show ruined Robb Stark's character

Sansa is a terrible character in the show and books

Danaerys will never make it to Westeros

I know you guys love your GRRM is evil fantasies but there's only two books left (if he finishes them) he can't kill off everyone he's got to have a story left

Why would Ned never tell him?


I remember watching some HBO behind the scenes special with the show runners during season 1, and they said in their very first meeting with GRRM he quizzed them on who Jon Snow's mother really was.


From watching that I think the R+L theory is real.

The Sailor's wife is really Tyrion's 1st wife.

Shae was really a Varys plant, and she wasn't fricking Tywin.

Sorry that she was fricking Tywin even if she was a Varys plant fricking Tywin would most certainly be part of the job

Tywin was sick, because your boy, Oberyn, had poisoned him, he wasn't capable of fricking.
Like the crossbow, the best available weapon for a dwarf, Tywin didn't know she was there.

I've always sort of wanted this to happen. People make him out to be some important character and that there's some deeper meaning to him.








SPOILERS




It would be the greatest troll job ever if he just turned out to be Ned's bastard who dies at The Wall. SOOOOO many people would be pissed.


I'm pretty numb at this point. Your "troll" ending for Jon would be completely consistent with the treatment of the Starks throughout the series.

And for the record, I think George Martin is likely struggling with the ending of the books/series because he knows most readers/viewers are hoping for some level of redemption/happy ending for the Starks yet he can't force himself to do it.

I honesty just think the story has gotten away from him, and he doesn't know how to tie everything in. I think we can see that in the way the plans for the series has expanded.

If you want an unpopular outcome based on nothing, I'll take Ramsey sitting the Iron Throne with a Reek as his Hand and Sansa being held in a black cell being used only for breeding purposes.

And deep down inside, this is the kind of ending Martin wants. Add in that the Boltons find a way to control the white walkers and they completely overrun Westeros providing Roose and Ramsay with total domination.
