The "Game of Thrones" has always been about Targaryens, Lannisters and Starks.

The book series is called A Song of Ice and Fire the overarching main story is about the dead (ice) and the living (fire)

I take Ice and Fire to refer to the Starks and the Targaryens, with Jon being the link.

"Aegon. What better name for a king... He is the prince that was promised, and his is the song of ice and fire"

It's Winterfell's main strategy for the win.

The battle against Cersei is the big one, the Walkers just an obstacle along the way.

The first scene in the whole show, the first chapter in A Game of Thrones were about the same thing, the White Walkers. The Night King was born with Dragonglass, I'm not sure if he can be killed with it.

Not Arya

Theon's a goner

Yeah same

[Epic.]

Tyrion and Jamie also surely survive the next episode,(?) they have to get to the plot of whether Bronn will turn on them

[bitontheslide]

Bri and/or Jamie will be toast too

Who is left on her list? Cersei (either Jamie or Tyrion will end up killing her), the mountain (cleganbowl will end that) who else?

I guess she may end up dying protecting Sansa, I think that’d be a good arc for her hmcharacter seeing as they hated each other to begin with

I don't want to believe it or even think it's likely, but it's clear they've set Sansa up for her feuds with Daenerys and Cersei to reach breaking point, same with Jon vs Daenerys, and Bran's being protected by Theon and is hiding a lot of important information to save people, so it really does just leave Arya if they're planning to get rid of another Stark

Pretty sure they won't kill off both her and Gendry though, as I predict he'll die in the fight

[Epic.]

Arya dying in the third episode would be lowkey funny though in retrospect, purely because of Maisie Williams' April Fool's prank of Arya dying in the SECOND episode

[bitontheslide]

given it's the last series, i'm not that bothered who dies when. Little finger remains my personal favourite demise

I can see Arya being one of the survivors, and eventually marrying Gendry, joining the Houses of Stark and Baratheon.

Most noticable difference in the titles

[Smithy]

The main thing is we’re up for the same promotion and I’ve been working for it for my entire existence. This is my whole existence! Since birth

"Dany literally was brought into this world going: RUN! These ******ers [in Westeros] have ******ed everything up. Now it’s, 'You’re our only hope'. There’s so much she’s taken on in her duty in life to rectify.

There’s so much she’s seen and witnessed and been through and lost and suffered and hurt to get here… and Jon doesn’t even want it!"

Ugh see! This is why she is how she is! She’s not becoming the mad queen, or arrogant or anything like that! She’s just trying to help people

[Vicky.]

I genuinely cannot wait for the next one, hopefully amazon come through and leak it earlier this week

[DouglasS]

Killing Arya would be ridiculous next episode. They built up here training and braavos for two seasons. Shes only claimed Walker Frey and Littlefinger since returning

[Tom4784]

It was a pretty poor episode tbh, they could have kept the important scenes and developments and put an extra 15-20 minutes on the first episode to cover what happened here with little lost.

[Tom4784]

The White Walker threat's definitely ending in the next episode though, I think. There's too much drama in the battle for the throne for the white walkers to kick around all season. We'll get a huge spectacle of a battle in the next episode and then they'll shank the Night King, kill off his hordes and set the stage for a potential three way battle between what's left of the Starks, Dany's forces and Cersei.

Well tbh, the only reason the walkers are kicking off is coz someone stole the baby sacrifice from them. I half expect a few deaths and a big fight, ending with the night king just going into the crypts, offing gilly and sam and taking what was promised to him, then leaving calmly, stepping over a few dead main characters on the way I only just realised last night that they only started going mental when Gilly ran away with the baby

OR, he kills Gilly, takes the baby not realising Sams down there, and Sam shoves dragonglass into his back, killing another walker and ending the war when he thought he went down there to run away. That would be mint

I can actually see this happening and I would be ok with that. But the kid has to die too. Would be the kind of thing to happen as it’s GoT and that’s what’s GoT does.

Its gaining more and more traction in my head the more I think of it tbh. This would explain why he seems to really have something against Jon, because Jon helped them escape with the kid. Bran doesn't really fit into this theory though. But Brans been useless all series so I am forgetting that (much like his character from s3 onwards) until we see the episode

[Smithy]

If you can predict it, it’s not going to happen

[bitontheslide]

Something that confused me .... Bran said the night king had sent many 3 eyed raven to try and kill Bran already. I don't even remember 1 having a good poke at him and isn't he now the 3 eyed raven .... i know he is meant to be an enigma ..... but unless ive somehow blacked it out, i can't make sense of that at all
