GRRM takes part of the blame here. He's had plenty of time to finish the story. Instead, he's taking his sweet ass time which forced D&D to take over and now look at what we got
Lmao the guy was a screenwriter and Hollywood producer long before he ever inked a word of game of thrones.

Arya isn't a he, or a younger brother, or the choking type.

Jaime is the most obvious choice, because it's the most obvious twist on Cersei believing it'll be Tyrion.
I think it'll be Jaime.

Far less convinced it'll be Jaime in the book though.

Still think I'd enjoy Sandor getting the kill tho, specially if he got some cheeky fukin lines in her face while doing it.
Arya could do it wearing Jaime's face that she just cut off him. And that would satisfy the prophecy.

At this point it HAS to be Jon, or Bran. Too much build up over multiple seasons to just discard those two and go another route.
Lol... oh to be clear they COULD go another route and it wouldn’t shock me. Might be exactly the kind of thing these hacks would do (again).

Agreed 100%.... but all of those actors are very good as evidenced by their work both in this show and in other projects.

Kit and Emilia aren’t on that list.

The strongest actor in the young cast was the kid who played Joffrey. He was outstanding.

He really was on another level.

I thought Maisie Williams also did a great job, especially in the scenes with Tywin. She really can act, too bad Arya is now apparently written as an edgelord.

Add Alfie Allen to the list of young great actors. His facial expressions post torture were terrific.

GoT is definitely missing goat characters like Tywin now. No one comes close.

How dare you!

Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner.

I think people ITT are reading way too much into 'prophecies' at this point. I think this season is clear they just abandoned all of that along with the original story lines and are going to go for generic shock solutions to end it all as quickly as possible.

The current characters, as written in the books, are fine. The problem is they are being put in the show completely out of character. Tywins entire role was written in the books so it was hard to **** up.

Then again, D&D completing ignoring it at this point would just be par for the course.

Was he Theon? If so then I agree completely. Didn’t think of him as part of the “young cast” but I guess he’s relatively young too.

Arya is only an option because Cersei is on her list. However, she also has the Mountain and the Hound on the list. Much better ending is the Hound beats the Mountain in Clegane Bowl, then Arya facing the Hound. The outcome is irrelevant at that point. Either Arya kills him and stays true to the revenge path, or she walks away, showcasing a development in her character, because she already had the chance to kill him once and didn't, so realistically she shouldn't want to kill him any longer.
Dont think they will give Arya the night king and Cersi.
Jamie is my guess

Podrick has no real connection to the Mountain though.
He is likely the only character, that can rival the mountain's dink in girth and size. Makes sense the Mountain would want to take him out.

Certainly be more exciting than Tyrion or Jaime doing it.
Did the hound even have a single scene of dialog with cersei? Would make absolutely no sense, so its probably gonna happen

She ordered him to execute a direwolf and that kid Mycah in the first season. She also probably assigned him to be Joffrey bodyguard before the show even started, but yes the connection is pretty weak.

Correct me if Im wrong but that part of the prophecy was cut from the show - I believe they only showed the part of her losing all her kids.

Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.

I think you're correct. It's hard to separate book/show back when they were in sync sometimes.

The Hound killing Cersei is basically Arya killing the Night King.

How could anyone remember Davos SEAWORTH was a sailor? Honestly, is it even possible? Could anyone but a scholar who has devoted their life to Game of Thrones even have that kind of recollection?

Spoiler!


I watched the video, he doesn't directly say what the spoilers are but he does react to them -- and it's not good. The leaked spoilers are very nonsensical and seem to be pure shock value.

^ Involves what is now looking like very accurate leaks/spoilers, be warned

Honestly its what I remember most about Davos so I'm surprised others don't either. All those scenes with Salladhor Saan and Davos are pretty memorable for me though

davos would never choose to sail to king's landing lmao he's probably the most realistic one aside from bronn and the hound. he'd be like **** that ****

only one crazy enough to do that is dany lol because she's rushing so hard. they took the boats because it was the fastest way

the "she forgot about euron" **** was just a stupid remark imo. what really happened is that NOBODY was expecting scorpions on ships, or mass scorpions on the castles. new invention in the world of game of thrones i think, cause qyburn's design. if euron didn't have the scorpions dany would have massacred the fleet easy.
