Literally never heard this theory and there's nothing in the show to back that up.
Gendry is a smith, if he has an arc left, it will be to forge Valyrian steel and possibly marry Arya

Will Tyrion have any anger towards Ellaria for killing Myrcella?

Hmm... I haven't thought about that for some reason. In season 1 it looked like Tyrion was close to Myrcella and Tommen, and they didn't hate him like all the other Lannisters/(Baratheons).

This where they use Dany like a rechargeable battery for the red titty witch's magic, according to the Hodors' theory.

Perhaps Valyrian steel is made with a combination of regular iron, dragonglass, and blood/fire magic.
The dragonglass would make it lighter, a quality often attributed to Valyrian steel, and the magic would foster the material bonding that would otherwise make the swords too brittle in the real world.
Perhaps dragonfire has a unique magic/quality that is used in the forgeing process, though I would think if that was the secret ingredient the Targaryens would have continued to pump out the stuff after the Doom but before the Lessening of their dragons. Then again perhaps they just didn't know the arts due to being dragonlords, not smiths.

I doubt Forging it. Maybe working with it and making weapons out of other melted Valyrian steal weapons but I doubt he learns to make it from scratch
I hope it's not some stupid subplot to get the storm lands to rally behind him being that he is Robert's blood. Plus there's not much Valyrian steel left in the world.

You heard the news Kit and Rose got engaged??? You must be devastated.
Posted on 7/21/17 at 2:58 pm to Gugich22
Kit actually came out and denied the engagement

Imagine if Tyrion had switched the plan he told Littlefinger with the plan he told Pycelle.
Myrcella would have married Robin and the Vale Knights would probably be supporting the Lannisters if Littlefinger still killed Lysa.

I think he would've married her off to Dorne any way. The other two proposals didn't make much sense
I think he knew Pycelle was the rat and just wanted to prove it so he gave him the real plan to tell Cercei.
In this show he tells Varys he is marrying Mycella to Theon greyjoy. Really doesn't make sense there.

Tyrion was at his best when he was playing off of Tywin, Cersei, and Joffery. He's taken a bit of a dip since the end of season 4.
I kind of agree with this. He's not as snarky or deadpan as he used to be. He's more serious and kind of less interesting.

probably, Lysa would've never allowed the marriage...actually she probably would have if LF would've married her in exchange.
They all made sense.
Lysa had the largest army that had yet to pick a side.
The Greyjoys had the largest navy and they needed a navy to stop Stannis. And Theon had knowledge of Winterfell and the North's army and defenses as he proved later when he defected to try to make his dad respect him.
Dorne was neutral and out of the way of the fighting, Myrcella would be safest there (or so Tyrion thought).

Theon was still known as a ward of the Starks and a confidant of Robb Stark. Don't think someone at war with you makes a sensible marriage alliance
Lysa is also related to Robb Stark, and she wanted to stay out of the fray, Tyrion knew this and knew this wouldn't have worked out even with LFs help.
Also he knows the Greyjoys and Lysa are fricking head cases so sending Mycella there would legit put her in danger and much closer to the fighting. There's no way he was sending her anywhere but Dorne

I'm thinking it has something to do with volcanic fire, and I think that messing around with it too much is what caused the Doom of Valyria.
Obsidian is created by volcanic activity, so it makes sense, as does the Targ's attraction to Dragonstone, which has to have been an active volcano at some point.

But first, she's going to have to endure the death of the sand bitches (please please please please).

Off Topic message to OML:
Despite your grievous error in the other thread (I mean Three Eyed Crow, really?), the highest ranking board Maesters have decided to allow you to return as a probationary Maester assuming you up your game in the future. You also have to tend to our meals and chamber pots during your probation period.
It's not like I have the power to enforce your banishment to the Hodor thread anyway.

But this is the Movie/TV Board, not the Book Board.
Plus, that doesn't let me mess with OML.
eta: In all seriousness, he was posting in here a lot before that happened and then none since.

The season premiere was pirated 90 MILLION times. Has any show ever been this popular?
