Yeah I thought Dorne was supposed to have badass fighters.

I'm sure they do but they need a figure head who is the most bad arse of them all. At least that's what I want

Lannister's are probably going to continue dropping like flies. Poor hot Margaery is marrying into the wrong family.

Maybe Stannis will get Dorne as an ally now?

Hopefully. I'm ready to see the caliber of army Stannis brings to the wall.

He just went and practically begged for money to buy an army. I'd say pride is out the door.

They are going to wreck those hippie wildlings. Stannis will probably kill a couple hundo himself.

I think Dorne plays a massive part moving forward. They just needed a reason to get into the fray.

An alliance with the Martells was important to Tywin because Dorne was the only land to succesfully protect themselves against Aegon's dragons. I assume Oberyn's head being caved in ends that possibility and puts King's Landing in even worse shape.

I think it's less the head getting caved in and more that the Mountain confessed in front of a couple hundred people.

The moment it was over I just went back to watching the LSU game and gave it no thought again, and i'll just be ready for episode 9 in a week.

I'm like you. I watch and I'm highly entertained for one hour and then its over. I'll watch again next week. I never want to become so invested in fictional characters that I lament their demise.

Moving on from Oberyn...

It seems pretty clear that Episode 9 is solely a war episode like seasons 1 and 2. Stannis will obviously show up just in time to save the day (or try to). It will be interesting to see who dies out of the big wilding characters - Ygritte/Bearded Guy/Crow Savage Eater Guy. Also, will any of the Sam, Pip, etc Night's Watch guys die? Will any of the Stannis characters like Davos die? Will the zombies or WW be involved at all in the battle?

Littlefinger is trying to build a Tywin-esque empire by ruling behind the scenes. He has a well-protected castle and Robin can be his puppet. Sansa looked a lot like Cersei at the end of episode.

Jorah's exile was very unexpected and I'm glad it may progress that boring storyline further. I don't see him abandoning her completely. Maybe he'll spy on Westeros for her now in order to win her favor back? Where the hell did Daario go again and should we care?

Arya and the Hound - will Arya actually reunite with Sansa or will they just turn around? The Hound seems like a dead man since they keep referencing his injury and lack of fire-purging.

If the hound dies from a bite I'm done. Not really but that would be so gay.

I wanna see Arya go to braavos and find the face changer dude.

She's clearly becoming, if not already, a psychopath.

My "spoiler" was that it was suggested that viper didn't kill the mountain... Which ended up not even being true.

Maybe y'all shouldn't read these threads then? Holy shite another dude wants to ban everyone who predicted a double death

Agree on Arya/Hound, but Jon Snow has become boring because of Castle Black. I like Brienne and Pod too though.


My theory is that Arya and the Hound run into Brienne and Pod, Hound locks eyes with Brienne and it's love at first sight. Same thing will happen with Arya and Pod.

Enjoyed the "beetle" scene with Jamie and Tyrion


That was the worst scene in the series for me. Tyrion and Jamie trying to sound retarded was pathetic and poorly done.
