Night king better take out the Glovers before the winterfell fight. None of that late arriving ally saving the day stuff.


Okay then what were the multiple visions of the throne room destroyed and full of ice and one of a dragon flying over KL? If the NK isn’t going in episode 3/4 are you suggesting the dead army overruns Winterfell and KL?

I recognized it from where the night King was "made" at the tree. When Bran does his 3 eyed raven thing (and gets touched by the NK) there's a good shot from above of it.

Not sure if that's the origin, or if it has another meaning.

How is it forced? It has been subtly building up over the last season. Now it’s come to a head.

fricking Dorne better play some role in this since we had to deal with their bullshite storyline.

I really doubt they're going back to that poisoned well.

I think they literally killed that thread when they slit the Dorne King's throat.

Plausible theory. Who knows considering it was so long ago?

Now that John knows he can ride the dragons, he is for sure stealing the dragons.

When he locked eyes with that one at the waterfall it was obvious

Joe rogan makes fun of people on the reg like this board. Everybody wants to be a contrarian in 2019....

It’s not fricking cool anymore.

we can all agree Euron is the worst character right?


I guess his character arc is complete now that he fooked the Queen

I know the show is pressed for time but Euron with a dragon horn would have been so god damn cool.

Favorite part of the episode was how little time they spent on Theon and Yara. Did exactly what they needed to do without dragging it out.

We'll see if Dany is completely full of shite when she finds out the truth about Jon. She has done some pretty harsh shite because she believes the Iron Throne is hers by right, well what about when it isn't? Will she accept that Jon is the rightful king, or show herself to be a power-hungry hypocrite?

Dany will have to die for Jon to ride drogon.

That’s actual lore fact.

So what...that doesn’t mean despite all that any human wouldn’t react with emotion.

You are a simpleton.

Doubt the night king is a targ.

Targs didn’t reach Westeros until after the doom of Valyria.

They settled at dragonstone first and that was thousands of years after the first men.

the only reason john would have a claim is b/c she's a woman, right?

she's rhaegar's sister so should be ahead of him, but-for their sex

We learned the dragons are depressed


Which will have to come into play later on. Like the dragons have been on a keto diet, looking great through the winter prepping for next summer, but just really losing all energy. They become sapped and have to take a carb break right in the middle of a huge battle. Also, they are teenagers now, maybe start doing a little weed, dabble in some heroin because their parents are blood relatives fricking in front of them, see where it goes

Just had a discussion about how Rhaegar is the Night King... not sure how they’d bridge the aspect of him dying and the tree scene but the other arguments my buddy made were not bad

Coming south to take his throne
Been left out of the series other than a flashback
Rode the dragon like he was meant to
The symbol/sigil comparison
The way the NK looks at Jon knowing he’s his son

Just a thought

It was a crackpot theory for years. I didn’t count on it. Go frick yourself GameCockAlum, and I hope you finally take your 10,000th ban seriously for once.

hes not actually going to kill them. its just a device to communicate his "loyalty" to someone and something other than gold and personal wealth. he is going to refuse to kill them at some point and join the fight
