    Four episodes into season 6, and things are moving faster than ever. Lots of stuff to discuss and theorize over. So, any fans out there?

    Haha I'd love it if that were the case. Hadn't seen any threads for the upcoming season, so I thought I'd ask :)

    Yeah it's been an interesting season so far...especially with Rickon RANOMLY showing up and the potential for that and stuff.

    Agreed! I've been waiting for him to come back for 3 years now, and I'm a little worried about what's gonna happen to the little guy. Ramsay needs someone new to play his games with, after all.....

    I honestly think
    Rikon is being used as bait by The Umber People to lure Reek's family, The Starks, and The Wildlings to take over Winterfell and overthrow The Lannisters and Cersei's innocent King will be overthrown but pledge his allegiance to Jon SnOW with Baelish/Littlefinger having Sansa's cousins march as well and by the end of S6 The Finger will have full control over Westeros whether anyone knows it or not.

    Wow...that's a nice theory. While I definitely agree that Littlefinger could end up with the upper hand in the North by the end of the season, I'm not sure the whole mess in King's Landing will join that storyline for a while. I like the idea of the Umbers being part of this. Can't imagine they'd betray the Starks so easily.

    For the night is dark and full of terrors.

    I can't wait for this weekend's episode, The Battle of the Bastards. If Ramsay doesn't finally get what is coming to him, and/or if Jon Snow dies (again) I will have no hope left for Westeros.

    Valar Dohaeris!

    Same here!! Personally I do not think they will kill again Jon, just because they went through much to get him back and he has not done anything like impressive yet. I'm definitely looking forward for that episode!!!

    Hope they could do some kind of crossover and get Sansa all Jean Grey LOL. Just kidding. But I definitely think it is going to be an epic battle.

    I agree with the Jon thing, he really hasn't done anything yet but he is probably the most beloved character. There are so many places that he could end up.
    "..He has too much of his father in him."
    "That's what I'm afraid of."

    Sansa worries me. I so want her to be the strong leader that she is just now finally getting a chance to be. But it's too much too fast for her right now. I feel like she is so hell bent on revenge that she is throwing caution to the wind. Lying to Jon was a mistake, and while I don't trust Little Finger they could really use his army right now. And, I'm both thankful and stressed that we haven't seen Rikkon since his re-introduction this season... I can't take any more Stark torture!

    I think this season has been way to nice to us.

    e.g. The Hound, Jon, Jon and Sansa, Arya, Rickon, Benjen, the Flashbacks.

    The show has either lost its teeth, and it's now all flowers and rainbows......or their lulling us into a false sense of security, only to hit us with some Ned level death.

    I'm hoping its not because of them completely veering away from the GRRM's original plans. (potential interesting Star Wars parallel there)

    It's definitely the lulling us into the false sense of security thing. But admittedly, the horror of Hodor will tide me over for a bit. I guess they want us to invest in the characters before they kill them, just to give that extra twist of the knife through the heart.


    I did happen to take this pic on the weekend...

    Well considering what the hound did to some of the brotherhood without banners...the show is sort of like, in his words, "turned into a bunch of pansies"
    :D but just wait for this sunday's episode and the 91+MINUTE episode season finale and we will collectively Sith our pants.

    Is the 91 minute episode for real?I had no idea about that...

    On a different note,I have kind of been wanting Sansa to kick the bucket all these seasons now.It's possibly the dark side clouding my mind,but I just can't stand that girl.I'm sorry...well,not really(emperor)

    Finale is 69 minutes long, not 91. But still the longest of the series.
