@dragonborn_ct: @thatguywithheadphones:

Next season will likely see Victorian and plenty of awesomeness from him as well as Euron and his rise. They'll show lots from Dorne as well, we will get to meet the Sand Snakes, Areo Hotah and hopefully Darkstar.

Victarian and Euron will likely be merged and Daphmair will be cut completely I think. We'll get a few of the sand snakes but not all of them. Areo Hotah might appear but I don't see Darkstar happening at all.

I was also disappointed that Lady Stoneheart didn't appear. How could you not end the season with some random Frey being take to a cave for execution and right before his death, she reveals her gruesome face to the camera. That would have everyone talking until next season.

Overall disappointed in this episode.

I really don't want to say this episode was disappointing. It was a pretty good episode in its own terms, but I am largely pissed off that particular character didn't appear. Have being waiting two years for that.

Now we gonna have to put up with that shitty part of the series that was Book 4 to see that :v

....i'm kind of bummed Stoneheart didn't appear but I doubt she's cut completely. She is way too important for that. Since Robert Strong is all but confirmed, it wouldn't make since to cut out LSH. They missed a huge WTF moment for the season finale though.

We'll have book 4 and 5 next season...maybe some of book 6 as well.

I'm also disappointed there was no mention of Tysha.....it would of elevated that scene even more so.

And the skeleton battle came out of nowhere. I don't remember that?? RIP Jojen....didn't see that coming...CotF look good though as does Blood Raven

@buttersdaman000: I would be absolutely pissed if they eliminated the Greyjoy sibling rivalry since they absolutely hate each other. However they did cut the other two Tyrell brothers out so it is entirely possible.

Also, I believe we will see all of the sand snakes (or at least by mention) but only two or three to be shown or given much screen time. They better not cut Darkstar, he serves a major purpose and honestly his story isn't done yet in the books either.

I know it wasn't directed towards me but there were corpses that came from the ground in front of the tree, I don't believe they were skeletons though.

@thatguywithheadphones: from my understanding they are continuing with Oberyn and going with Spain/Latin looking actors for the Martells and of course Arianne must be extremely hot.

Yeah, i'm with you but with the creative liberties that have already been taken and the limits of TV, I see them merging the characters to save time and money. The Kingsmoot, should they have one, will be between Yara and Victarion/Euron. I hope i'm wrong though.....

All Darkstar does is cause a nuisance and cut off Myrcellas ear....Unless he becomes a lot more important in later books, he might also be cut....

Ah, I don't remember that. I was only 200 something pages in when I stopped reading DwD. I need to pick it up again...

@buttersdaman000: I agree, I could totally see that happening like when they cut Garlan Tyrell. I hate it though lol.

Darkstar is a beast, I hated the character at first with his "I am of the night" stuff but I've grown to respect him. I have my suspicions that he is working for someone (maybe Doran himself even) towards some conspiracy. Also SPOILER, it has been confirmed that he's so badassed that even The Red Viper was wary of him. He has some big stuff to come I believe.

DwD is freaking awesome especially at the end. You need to finish it. Another spoiler below.

Don't want to miss the great northern conspiracy.

Funny thing though... There were some rumours recently that they had cast an Brazilian actor to play Doran Martell. I was pretty excited, but then it turned out to be a fake news... Thankfully enough since the actor they had picked was way too younger than Pedro Pascal to play his elder brother.

@the_tree: no chance he's Benjen, I could buy The Nights King but not Benjen. Leaf tells Bran that Coldhands was killed "long ago" which would immediately rule out Benjen since he's only been missing a few years and Leaf is hundreds of years old.

@dragonborn_ct: that's good, at first glance I thought Pedro was too young but then I saw how awesome he was and let it slide. Doran on the other hand is supposed to be a sickly old man though.

I wonder if Quentyn will be in the show.

In case you are wondering that was the guy they rumours stated was going to play Doran Martell...

Who knows? Honestly his only purpose in the story was to set the dragons loose after his proposal to Dany goes south. You might as well cut him out entirely and replace him some random master trying to take control of the dragons for their own purpose.

I found annoying that his other purpose was to show what happens to a character that thinks he is in different kind of story than he think he is. Quentyn thought he was some kind of plucky hero in a tale of good and bad and that determination pays off in the end for those who want it so bad... Man was him so off base :V

@dragonborn_ct: he's WAY too young, he'd make a good Quentyn though.

I actually kind of felt bad for Quentyn, he was a complete joke. He could very well be cut, the only question is how this effects Martell Targ relations.

Well, we have yet to see the repercussions of his death. He was still not yet cast in this season though...

You people use to know what spoiler blocks were.... Learn them again because you just spoiled the whole next season for me, jerks. Seriously, TV spoilers are fine, but book spoilers are suppose to be covered. Smh.

You're not going to find a GOT thread without spoilers. The first book has been out for 18 years now. Your best bet is to avoid GOT threads until you finish the books.

@lesterlawton: I've made enough GoT threads, been to enough of them, met enough of the users, and I've been on here long enough to know that spoilers will be in every GoT thread. People usually have the decency to put spoiler blocks over book spoilers.

Now your telling me to avoid talking about a topic I enjoy to talk about and enjoy to hear others' opinions about with my friends on here simply because the people that read the books can't control themselves? I should be punished for their arrogance, stupidity, and just plain rudeness? You do realize how idiotic this sounds, yes?

VALAR MORGHULIS!

No Caption Provided

I'm bloody speechless. That was literally the greatest season finale I've ever seen. Some bullet points:

  • STANNIS! You brilliant bastard.
  • I enjoyed the callback to Season 1 when Jon mentions that Ned died for Stannis. I know some fans have actually forgotten that Stannis was the one that Ned was going to put on the throne (until Robert's "true heir" came of age). He really does have the most legitimate claim (besides maybe Dany).
  • Stay away from Jon, Melisandre! Don't be such a fiery c%nt all the time.
  • Holy balls. Bran's story has now officially catapulted GoT from hard fantasy to high fantasy. Skeleton warriors, fireballs, and old magic dudes, oh my! Not sure how I feel about Jojen's fate though...
  • Dany's scene with her dragons was actually pretty sad. Hope those two don't hold it against her. On another note, the CG on the dragons has never looked so good.
  • The Brienne and Sandor fight was incredible. I'm also glad they kept it like the books and had Arya leave The Hound there. Yes, The Hound is dead...but is Sandor? It's rather ambiguous isn't it? Wonder if they'll have that old gravedigger from the books show up...
  • Cersei just saying f%ck it and not caring who knows the truth about her and Jamie was rather refreshing. Also glad to see that she wasn't the only one of Tywin's kids getting tired of his sh%t.
  • They didn't sugarcoat the scene with Shae. I'll look back through this thread for a comment of mine I made that was basically saying how I doubted they were going to keep that scene like it was in the books. I'm glad I was wrong.
  • Atta boy, Tyrion! Now go meet up with Dany (I swear that's not a pipe dream at all. It's literally going to happen. The two most beloved and popular characters are going to go hang out. It's almost kind of dumb, but also very satisfying, no?).
  • Ah Varys. King's Landing won't be the same without you. You made the right choice though...
  • Arya is basically an honorary daughter of Bravos. I wonder how many more Bravosi dudes she'll make friends with. There was Syrio Forel, then Jaqen H'ghar, and now she's on her way to Bravos itself. Awesome.
  • Speaking of, that ending scene with her was perfect. I don't know why, but I welled up a bit while watching it. I guess it was just beautiful seeing Arya finally free, and it made me reflect how far we've come since the beginning. I've been watching this show for 2-3 years now! I guess I'm a nostalgic fool.

Some nitpicks:

  • Strange that we didn't get a Sansa and Littlefinger scene.
  • Also, Tommen was so awesome earlier in the season. Shame we haven't seen him since. I need more nighttime Margaery visits in my life.
  • I feel like it's been way too long since we've gotten a proper Olenna Tyrell scene.
  • Jamie didn't tell Tyrion the truth about the girl from childhood. I always liked that as the proverbial "straw that broke the camel's back." Now, Tyrion almost looks bitter in his actions. Risking his brother's gift of freedom to confront his father unprovoked. Oh well.
  • I'm sad that they didn't find a way to work in the line about Tywin sh%tting gold. I know in the book it was an internal monologue of Tyrion's, and they don't have those in the show, but still...

Game of Thrones episode casualty count:

  • Jojen Reed. Damn...
  • The Hound. Ah, f%ck.
  • Shae the whore. Dead hotness.
  • Tywin Lannister. Sh%t, son! Literally...

Game of Thrones Season 5...1 year to go!

Now we wait...

Dude. This is the "Game of Thrones" thread, not the "A Song of Ice and Fire" thread. The OP even warns of TV spoilers, but the books should be discussed (openly) elsewhere.

I gotta admit, after last season's finale, this finale was better than tat one. Plus I got to admit I was up in arms when they changed many things, but then I was like, "Woah skeletons! Jamie and Tyrion are still happy bros! Brienne vs the Hound?! Nerdgasm explosion!!!"

Overall pretty great finale, better than the season 3 one imo.

@jaken7:

I prefer Jojens TV fate to what most likely happened to him in the books (Jojen Paste). I think that might've been a bit too dark for Brans character.

The sh*t gold line wouldn't have worked out in that scene lol it would've killed the vibe

But where are these spoilers everyone is complaining about?

I know...I just love that line. :/

I'm not sure. I'm too scared to look, I just saw Deathstroker raising hell about it.

Since I haven't completely finished DwD I don't know all the details, but I went ahead and spoiled the core of his story anyways. Apparently, Jojen grows very weak in his travels with Bran, just like it happened in the TV series, and is largely absent for the rest of the book. He's there, but we just don't see him. There's a theory that was taken from the sub context of the chapters that Jojen was actually unknowingly sacrificed to expand Bran's powers. His body was turned into a tree, destroyed, or something and ground up into a paste to feed to Bran - hence, Jojen Paste. You can look up the theory yourself to get the exact details, but that's pretty much what happened. And, the fact that the show runners felt safe killing him off here only further proves it IMO. Also, it has been repeatedly shown that all magic comes with an even steeper price....

Yeah, I do too....I'm more pissed off about the exclusion of 'where do whores go?'

Really the only potential spoilers I see are character mentions that might appear in season 5. There's nothing that would ruin an unsullied viewing anymore than an episode preview IMO.

@buttersdaman000: Woah. That's a trip! Kind of fits with the books, but you're right, that's too dark for the show. Bran is an awesome character, and I don't think people would've accepted that very well.

That's a common complaint actually. I personally didn't miss it, but it would've been cool if it was in there.

I'm just gonna play it safe anyways.

@jaken7:

Yeah, I was uncertain on whether or not Tyrions murder of Shae and his father would turn TV characters away from his character, but I know for certain Jojen Paste would turn them away from Bran. So that was a good move on the show runners part..

Actually, why am I even putting that in spoilers?? Jojen is dead either way lol

Okay! I am now, officially...

CAUGHT UP!!!

Saw the season finale last night. Man... loved the ending.
