......said Baron hopefully while his non mouse hand wandered elsewhere......

I enjoyed the episode certainly a lot more then most this season. But where have all the twists gone. The thing with GOT was that something unexpected could happen at any time. That's why there are so many fan theories kicking about and one of the reasons people love it so much. Now they seem to foreshadow ever action on the show and stick to that foreshadowing verbatim. The example is the letter Sansa writes to Littlefinger. It works exactly as you would expect and we get the battle of helms deeps V2. It was an awesome battle but there was no twist to it. It played out pretty much as we expected. That is the difference for me in later seasons. There has been a load of talk about the dragonsfire under kings landing so I expect we will see that in the next episode.
 
Sansa telling Jon that Ramsay will try and get you to do exactly what you shouldn't. Jon even says we have to have them come to us, and that Rickon is as good as dead already. Yet as soon as the battle starts he rejects all that and does the exact opposite. Showing that he is an awful commander but a kick arse fighter. Why spend all that time talking about what not to do if that is exactly what you do once the battle starts. Oh so the audience understands how screwed they are. Would have been better to leave Davos in charge he seemed to run the show pretty well. 
 
You would think the Stark kids would have learnt by now that honor gets you know where, shit it got Jon killed once already, and rocked up to the parley with Wun wun and just ripped all the lords heads off. Job done.

No Quarter

Oh, and all Rickon had to do was run in a zig zag and Bolton would have had basically no chance of hitting him. Idiot.

Did that kid even have a single line of dialogue? 
Rickon boy's agent: "The good news is after 3 seasons they're bringing you back. The bad news is you get no lines and then they kill you." 
I reckon they're going to make Bran basically end up the way Rickon probably does in the books, i.e. lord of Winterfell. The idea that Bran should remain connected to a tree for all eternity doesn't make great TV. 
The big reveal for me will be what actually happens to Stannis. He is flawed but still pretty damn cool in the books. Actually he was pretty farking hard core in the battle of the Blackwater in the show as well.

Dude start your own thread with the rest of the nerds. This is for the TV show. :knuppel:

There's room enough for both you heathen.

I am deciding whether or not to bother with the books. Love the TV show ( obviously ) but I hate it when Books and TV/Movies in any series branch too far apart......

Rancid Schnitzel

They're brilliant. For a while there both book and series complimented each other really well. But the series started to go off the reservation in the 5th season. 
Having said that, there is plenty of bloated crap and filler in the books.

Im quite the opposite, they seem to be worlds apart from each other so will need, at some point to read them.

Maybe I'll wait to see if he ever finishes them, then give the books a go.

Wasn't she chewing on a hookers boobs before taking her off for a shag last week?
 
I'm no expert on lesbians, but that sort of behaviour would flag up some doubts surely...

Just finished watching it - easily best episode of this season. Good to see Jon Snow and Sansa both go bad ass. Sansa has probably had the biggest character arc on the show - I could actually see her winning this game thing. Jon Snow is as stupid a commander as Stannis was, here's hoping he gets better counsel for the battles ahead.
 
I hope those archers fucked up those bloody dogs immediately after they had their first meal in 7 days though.

Nah, all that used to happen was the person who you thought would win would die ... all ... the ... time.
 
Finally, if anyone is seriously picking the Iron born over the hot translator I'd suggest you have a good hard think about your sexuality. That is all.

Erhmm we are all adults here so let me explain. 
The hot translator you want to put a ring on and cuddle with her for the rest of your life. 
The Greyjoy girl on the other hand, you want to eat a candle lit dinner with and for dessert throw everything out of the table, her on it and take her with these on: <img src="http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160621/2b3a144f08856462b45c5b7782c48a87.jpg" alt="2b3a144f08856462b45c5b7782c48a87.jpg"> 
Does it make any sense?

To be fair only one of them is white... so I wasn't that shocked. But yes. She overtook Dani for no. 1 a wee while back. About the time she hoped in the river actually...
 
Tho I can see the attraction of <strike>being fucked in the arse by</strike> having some sort of sex with Yara

Warning, there's no pictures in the books. Just lots and lots of words.

Giddy up!! Great episode and those scenes where Jon was being trampled in the mud took me back to the start of Saving Private Ryan - such a powerful scene.
 
Sansa holding back on the info about Little fingers army was odd - no point in 'I told you so' if your army and brother are dead. Tactics etc would have been far different if Jon and Davos had a bunch of Calvary.
 
RIP Wun wun, and enjoyed Ramsey being fed to the hounds.
 
I think Sansa has spent too long around horrid, coniving folks and is starting to put all that to use for her own agenda... will be interesting to see where the balance of power sits with her and Snow.
