    Surprised, too, about the apparent silence. Either everyone is disinterested, or nobody is checking down here.

    Nevertheless, even though I haven't seen these episodes (yet), I understand they are deviating very much from the book.

    It is a bit discouraging to have to scroll past all those dozens of dead "Living Greyhawk" forums to get here. Could they maybe be archived away, or at least moved somewhere where they don't take up so much real estate from the active forums?

    I am caught up on this season's episodes. They've deviated so much from the actual book (not necessarily good, not necessarily bad) that it's hard for me to figure out what will happen next, except that the overall theme is, basically, the same.

    Liked last episode's ending with the WhiteWalker siege on the wildling fortress. Shocked

    Or what happened at the Wall last night, Daenerys, and... well, if I say too much, I'll probably get ragged on as dropping spoilers, so...

    Been a while since the last post on this thread...

    ...Ramsay Bolton got exactly what he deserved, in my opinion. A follower of Trithereon would definitely approve!

    The final scene with the fleet sailing for Westeros, the three dragons in full flight overhead, was a visual treat to witness.

    I am hopeful and excited to see what comes next. Not at all disappointed thus far. In fact, and maybe I am the only person to think this, I would go so far as to say the show has improved in terms of quality (filming, effects, etc.) from one season to the next. Of course this may be due entirely to a larger budget!

    A friend posted this on FaceBook (which I subsequently added to my Timeline) and thought it was too funny NOT to share with other GoT fans:

    This season is my favorite season so far. Lots of action and great battles and of course the dragons look amazing. I love the books even more than the show, but the show does a pretty good job.

    Predictions:

    - Tormund is alive
    - The Others and the Army of the Dead wreck havoc in the North and it takes the good guys a while to gather their forces to fight back
    - The first battle between the good guys and the Others ends in defeat for the good guys
    - Jon and Dany continue to be together romantically for a while
    - Jon doesn't find out who he really is for a while
    - When he does find out however he and Dany "break up" and he renounces being King of the North and head of the Stark family
    - Sansa becomes head of the Starks and Queen of the North
    - The Golden Company shows up working for Cerci and attacks Dany's army from the south, but they eventually fight with her against the Others
    - Melisandre shows up with an army from Volantis and they fight the Others with Dany. Melisandre is killed fighting though
    - Jaime kills Cerci with his bare hands as the prophecy said
    - Clegane bowl happens and the Hound kills the Mountain, but he dies of his wounds right after
    - The good guys win in the final battle against the Others, but Jon is killed and Drogon and Rhaegal also die
    - The Night's King and all the Others are killed as is Viserion in the final battle
    - The show ends with Dany giving birth to Jon's (healthy) son

    Did you get this from your crystal palantir? Happy

    Good predictions. Rumor has it that we might have to wait TWO years, though! Evil

    thanks

    Coming "soon." :)

    Very excited, and hopeful.
