Please no undead Hodor. The man lived his life for one purpose, fulfilled it and died a hero.

so how come the Night's King interacted with him as if he was right there in that past time period? One thought I have is that the Night's King also possesses greensight, just like bran and bloodraven. Just like bran and bloodraven could interact with each in the visions because they were both using greensight--maybe anyone with greensight can interact with anyone else even if one or more of them are from the past/future.
I don't think it's the greensight but rather the magical properties of the weirwoods.

All,

The children and their grenade things reminded me of fairies in True Blood...

Do we think that whole race is dead now or was that just some of them living there with seer dude?

Bloodraven, greensight, hardhome... Some of you must pay a lot more attention to names of stuff in this show than I do!

Bran operates outside of time , past and present.
People have noticed him before or heard him, the issue is right now he has no control. Remember Ned heard him, and if you are paying attention Hodor sees him before he falls to the ground , Bran also realize that the control he has on Hodor works inside the pat as well as the present. This is as an important take away from the episode as any.

The question to ask yourself is Bran going back now able to change the effects he had on these people. IE he went back to winterfell and freaks out Hodor, its how he gets his name...can Bran now change this and thus change the present or are these things that already happened, even with him "interacting" unchangeable

Damn, the first time the phrase, "Hold the door," was spoken, I joked to my wife, "Well, that's why he's called Hodor!"

I didn't think that was actually the reason. I almost felt bad for joking about it. What an amazing scene.

Bran is probably going to warg into a random polar bear to carry himself

So, ranking sad TV deaths, it's something like:

1) Hodor - Game of Thrones
2) Edgar Stiles - 24

About right?

2) Six feet under finale

Hodor is probably #1 for me. That was sad, I felt really bad for him.

Bran is pretty much responsible for ruining the guy's life and ultimately gets him killed.

It's not the mist, it's a blizzard. I kind of assumed everyone's been in a blizzard, but that scene is quite plausible. Much better than zombies who run across the ceiling.

I'm assuming they're all gone. The Gorman/Vasquez death was suicide upon realising that, as it didn't actually achieve much.

I found his death pretty awesome. If I'm going to die, and I realise it's likely, that'll do.

Hodor That was one of the saddest scenes I've ever seen, but also incredibly well made.

Sansa keeps making really stupid decisions. Why would she lie to Jon? What is she trying to do?
05-23-2016 , 05:45 PM
She must believe that LF was telling the truth about Blackfish. She knows that Jon would never trust the info if he knew it came from LF.

You're right about stupid decisions though. She should have "forgiven" LF and actually be the one playing him for a change. She did show sparks of being capable of that when she was at the Vale. Pity.

sansa doesn't tell jon the truth for a couple reasons.

1. LF put doubt in her mind- sansa has seen all the backstabbing that goes on family or not

2. she would have to explain why lf came to see her and how she got sold off to be raped and tortured by the boltons thanks to LF. jon would kill him.

we don't know for sure if hodor is dead

I never saw these as sad for some reason. I thought it was an outstanding episode, but it didn't make me feel sad. After all, everybody is waiting.

Hodor. Great episode. But...

That idiot stupid little girl with no sense of any duty just drives me mad. From first season "I want to marry lovely prince at any costs" to 2-4th season "I am a stupid little girl" with a small hope of character development when she makes her own twists with good people of Vale died off right in this episode. "We will fight Ramsay" + "We need an army" from ep. 4 and then Littlefinger (with Robin) arrives to give him one changes to "I am an independent woman whose pride was hurted" + "I DON'T NEED YOU!". I hope Jon Snow understands that this bitch will doom them all. We don't need another "Baelor" or "Rains of Castamere".

Sansa. Just die. Preferrably at the hands of Ramsay suffering a long and painful death. Or maybe Drogon could eat him. Jon + Dany would be much more interesting couple to watch with Tyrion doing all the dirty work.

It's also very disappointing to watch interesting characters with ultimately boring story lines. Like Arya. Overall, season 6 is still best so far and I wait it to get even more better with second half. I expect that boring stand-off at King's Landing will also be reignited into nice little conflict.
05-23-2016 , 06:07 PM
I wonder what will happen in Kings Landing. Margaery seemed pretty loved by the people, so they are definitely less likely to revolt when the Tyrell forces will take her back.

Also if we think back a bit, the Mad King let in the Lannister forces and the city was then sacked by them, what stops the Tyrell forces to just kill the Lannisters ? All the Lannisters are in Kings Landing(except Tyrion), the city watch is a couple hundred man they couldn't do anything if the Tyrells ceased power. The people wouldn't care they hate the Lannisters anyways.

Re: Bran getting away, y'all seem to be convinced White Walkers can't be warged into. Why's that?
