His identity was kept secret because Robert would have had anyone with Targaryen blood summarily killed. Ned obviously didn't want his sister's child to die and he expressed similar sentiment about Dany.

2. Gendry is Robert's true son via his many extramarital affairs.

3. Robert and Cersei had no children; they were all Jaimie's (remember the line Ned discovered, that all of the Baratheon men had black hair?)
I always thought in the back of my brain that the Gendry/black hair/Baratheon theory could apply to Snow given the love affair of Robert and Lyanna.

I did not think Lyanna gave the kid to Ned because she thought Robert would kill it and thought he would have blonde hair if Targaryen. I have to go pull that scene and watch again

The way they brought Gendry back was a bit lol.

I've been saying this for a while now, just adopt the Netflix model with all their original series imo. Hell, last year Ian McShane was spoiling to the press.

(Of course we'd still probably be spoiled the day after it drops unless we are part of the lucky few who has time to marathon all the episodes the day they become available)

Was a nice bit of fan service with the "thought you might still be rowing" line.

It's not the episodes that have been leaked but the plot, and it was leaked like before the season started not just with this latest hack.

I rewatched last night and Thoros talking about them being needed at the wall and the LoL has a plan makes me think they are going to unlock the magic at the wall which allows the WW's to get past it?

Oh snap I never contemplated the scenario where the lord of light is PRO walker. That would be a nice nice twist. Not sure how the Hound would fit in though.

Still don't think it goes that way.

The Hound HATES fire

LoL supporting Dany, resurrecting Jon, setting up Stannis' downfall, etc, keeps them all fighting with each other and weakening their numbers against the Walkers. It's an interesting theory I hadn't considered. But the LoL seems fire-based, it would be odd to support the side that is anti-fire.

ya Fire def #TeamIce

Just rewatched. Silly episode. So they mount an expedition to capture a walker and they don't appear to have made or taken any weapons made from obsidian, which was Jon's original purpose in going to dragonstone? WTF.
08-15-2017 , 12:36 PM
Raise your hand if you'd get a legit erection if little sister somehow has to kill big sister because big sister pulls some ****.

so much blood would go to my wang

I have managed to stay away from plot spoilers, and simply refuse to watch any YouTube analysts who like to speculate about future series events; I assume they've all read the plot spoilers.

What was Pycelle saying to Cersei just as Jaime came in after his meeting with Tyrion?

Come on, he said one of the most iconic things in the history of the show.
08-15-2017 , 12:46 PM
I didn't hear it. I assume he was confirming that she was pregnant.
08-15-2017 , 12:50 PM
Definitely top five key statements! I do hope Pycelle dies a creative and ugly death.
08-15-2017 , 12:51 PM
All we got to hear was her saying to him "that won't be necessary" or something like that. I assume he was either informing her of the pregnancy, or possibly about the Tyrion meeting (he's the one with all the little birds now).

Pycelle already died at the hands of the little birds. That was Qyburn talking to Cersei.

Not sure how to tell you this, so I'll just leave the youtube video instead:

I kinda already said this, but when Jon died, I wanted a scene where they opened on his body laying there, and we all thought he was dead, and then he opens his eyes and they are that chilling blue color.

If this show does end with Jon as the night king it will all have been worth it.

I mean his name is "Snow" it seems pretty likely to me at this point. Everyone has been obsessed with the story of him getting stabbed through the heart.
08-15-2017 , 01:25 PM
I felt no need to correct Pycelle/Qyburn since we all knew who he was talking about.
08-15-2017 , 01:25 PM
Damn, of course, I meant Qyburn. Thanks, fellas.
08-15-2017 , 02:11 PM
Now that the scripts have been leaked, can we ban all theories from this thread? I don't want to hear any of your clever theories. This thread is the last safe haven for me not to be spoiled. Like to keep it that way.
