As the last year, there were some threads about GOT episodes and I know many of us are huge fan of the tv series.
So, what are all your thoughts on it?


WARNING: Do not open this thread if you did not yet watched the last episode of GOT (season 5 episode 8 known as "Hardhome")

and sorry wrong forum if someone can replace it to the right section (off topic)

Oh god it was terrible :/ the show has massacred the storyline especially with Sansa taking the place of Faux Arya! that definitely made me shudder.
I like how they did the others though and how Jon found that Valyrian steel can kill an Other.

Well they warned they would not respect the books' storyline, but I think it does not diminish the quality of the show some changes were needed, other were deleted as it did not impacted the main storyline (example the whole Brienne's quest story which was modified).

The Night's king which was showed during this episode remains a mystery to me, what is his true identity? What is the real purpose of the WW?

One theory: Dont you think that the Starks are linked in some way with the Others?

As Martin himself said, the books and the show are two different ways of telling the same story. You can't judge the show on how close it is or isn't to the books, especially this season where the show is the one spoiling the books.

There is theory that Coldhands is the Night's King or the Night's King son i don't think we saw the Night King in Hardhome.

where can I see season 4 and five with a CLEAN download!!
Also read the wiki I think it says who coldhands is

well how can you know that he was not the Night's king?
However I believe that the Night's king is a Stark (perhaps explaining why the supposed Night's king of the show did not kill Jon Snow)

Tell me if I am wrong, but Tyrion's journey with (fake?) Aegon Targaryen happens after he arrived in Mereen right?

And about Jon Snow, it will certainly happen during the 10th episode.

yes, it should have happened already, before he met daenerys. i think in this universe there is no prince aegon targaryen.

I think Aegon Targaryen will show up in the next season.
What about the Greyjoy family (Euron etc)? Do you think we would see them in the next season?

and wonder if jon snow will be backstabbed or not in the coming episodes

Well, I read books couple of years ago (somewhere around S02), but as far as I remember

[SPOILER]
John Snow was backstabbed at the end of last book, so there is a chance he might survive this season :)
[/SPOILER]
They won't be able to cover whole story from the books in 2 last episodes, so S06 will based on it. But as you mentioned, we need to treat TV show as separate storyline independent of books, so everything is possible.

About last episode, I think I like the idea and how was army of undead presented. Some might say, that it was better, than in Walking dead :P

it isn't confirmed he died

same way i remember from the books sam would travel with the aegon meister, the girl whose name i don't recall right now plus the swapped mance rayders child to save it from the fire witches claws, they were travelling to the capitol or whatever the city of meisters is called. and master aegon would die half way through the trip. in this storyline there is no mance rayders child and no trip. :(

Greyjoy's storyline has also been completly cut off. i think they just decided to focus more on the current characters, which makes sense because the original storyline has _way_ too many characters, becomes a real soap opera at times, you having to read through a lot of side stories to get to know what happens next with your favorite characters.

I am not sure that the Greyjoy storyline is completely cut off, I believe that they will show Euron, Victarion etc in the next season, it is after all a very important storyline.
