Just read a load of spoilers for the first 4 episodes of the season, and I'm not really looking forward to it all that much now. They have changed too much.

Contains huge show and also book spoilers:

Spoiler:

In Keeping with the books:

*Stannis offers Jon legitimacy and Winterfell in episode 2.
*Jon becomes Lord Commander in episode 2.
*Jon beheads Janos Slynt in episode 3 and Stannis nods afterwards, apparently it's a great scene.
*Kevan is back and taking zero sh-t from Cersei.
*Kevan says he will serve as Tommen's Master of War if the king himself calls upon him but he will not be a puppet of Cersei's.

Changes:

*Ellaria is taking over Arianne's material
*Winterfell is introduced in episode 3 (with Sansa and LF going there). Littlefinger is still there in episode 4 but gets called back to KL by Cersei.
*Sansa's marriage plans to Ramsay is revealed in episode 3.
*Roose puts Littlefinger in his place and does a good job hiding Ramsay's dark side from the others.
*Jaime heads to Dorne after episode 1, arrives in episode 4
*Tommen and Margaery have sex, it's off-screen but you can still hear them f-cking like jackrabbits and Tommen post-coital looks like he's in heaven.
*Regarding the Dorne storyline, all in all; "As a die hard book reader I was okay with Jaime's part in the Dorne storyline, it all seems to carry out organically and Ellaria and Doran have nice scenes together. So far it's promising."
*Not a single mention of the ironborn or Balon, or Yara.
*Illyrio never even shows up.
*Brienne meets Sansa but is rejected by her
*

Spoiler:

Mance

dies in Episode 1 (what the ****?)
*

Spoiler:

Grey Worm

dies in Episode 4
*

Spoiler:

Barristan

dies in Episode 4
*No hint of Davos going to White Harbor.
*Theon has zero dialogue in both episodes he appears in.
*Jaime continues to be pussywhipped by Cersei and wants her affection.
*Brienne has some speech about wanting to kill Stannis

Most of this sounds like it will make for an entertaining TV show but it is all just so different from the source material, no wonder GRRM didn't take up the option of writing an episode this season or next.. The

Spoiler:

Sansa marrying Ramsay part is the worst.. what a load of nonsense

[Mokka]

I can't look.... I can't look....

[Iceman]

So close now, yet so far.

[Natalie.]

Can't wait to watch this as it airs for the first time

[Iceman]

I think I need to update my sig and avatar.

Did anyone else see this? - http://winteriscoming.net/2015/04/03...fore-season-6/

‘Interestingly, Martin also reveals that he recently came up with a big twist that he had never previously considered involving an important character. The quote, reproduced in full below, is characteristically vague, but plenty intriguing.’

“I’m still weighing whether to go that direction or not. It’s a great twist. It’s easy to do things that are shocking or unexpected, but they have to grow out of characters. They have to grow out of situations. Otherwise, it’s just being shocking for being shocking. But this is something that seems very organic and natural, and I could see how it would happen. And with the various three, four characters involved…it all makes sense. But it’s nothing I’ve ever thought of before. And it’s nothing they can do in the show, because the show has already—on this particular character—made a couple decisions that will preclude it, where in my case I have not made those decisions.”

He must hate the show so much

[Locke.]

The first 4 episodes have leaked online... Debating with myself whether to watch them now and wait a month for Ep5 or just watch one a week

[Iceman]

Downloading as we speak.

[Smithy]

What's the quality?

[Locke.]

[Iceman]

Haven't checked yet. I'm watching the end of f1. Downloading in another room. I'll let you know though.

[Iceman]

Oh nvm

[Smithy]

[Iceman]

Oh yes this will do perfectly.

[Glenn.]

I'm going to wait for it.

Not happy with this.

[Glenn.]

I caved. They're downloading as we speak

[Tom4784]

I shall find the strength within to watch them as they air.

[Natalie.]

I'm trying not to watch them

[Tom4784]

Too many of my friends will watch it as their air and I hate not watching it at the same pace as I can't talk to them about it s0b.

[Smithy]

Why is this thread in the Sci Fi forum

[Locke.]

Watched the first 2, the Stannis/Jon scenes are perfect, exactly as I imagined them. This scene making it to the show has made the season for me

Spoiler:

[Smithy]

Yeah the wall scenes have been the best so far, everything else is deviating too much

Ep 3

Spoiler:

why are we seeing a 15 year old having sex um

[Iceman]

Apparently episodes 5&6 are out there too. Can anyone find them?
