    They obviously want to get everyone talking about 'is he or isn't he' again. He's clearly gonna be in season 6, people that believe he's gone for good might have a change of mind. People that believe he's alive will feel a bit of surety from this poster. Plus the producers know well that everyone has seen the pictures of Kit dressed up as a stark so it seems they've embraced the fact that the worst kept secret in tv is public knowledge.

    Oh dear why did I ever start watching this....when will it end
    Will those Stark Offspring go around and around the countries until they and me are very old

    Does anyone know if there is an actual ending

    Will Daenerys ever cross the narrow sea and have done with it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,276 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    She will yeah, she ends up ruling the seven kingdoms, marries the night king and they have these weird hybrid fire/ice babies. The wall is torn down and the people of middle earth, I mean, Westeros, live happily ever after.......till Aliens.

    The final chapter will be aul Ned waking up in a sweat during the middle of the night and frantically looking around only to see Catelyn fast asleep beside him. She slowly wakes and asks if he's okay. Ned replies, "yes, it was just a bad dream". He lies back down
    And thinks to himself "winter is coming". The end.

    A load of pictures gone up on the game of thrones Facebook. Gives a good idea of what's to come.

    Certainly looks like it but i guess that's what they want us to think. Was that Stannis burning?

    Also, at the end when Davos takes out the sword, Jon Snow is lying on the table and it looks like his Direwolf is beside him... wonder if he's gonna kill the dog to bring Jon back to life or something?

    Do we really need spoiler tags to discuss the trailer? None of us know what's coming this season!

    Tower of Joy scene confirmed from the trailer.
    Also Melisandres hand on Jon Snows forehead, remind you of Thoros and Beric?

    I believe Ian McShane has confirmed GET HYPE ;)

    And how is Bran standing up?

    I would personally agree that there shouldn't be a need for spoilers but some people don't like viewing trailers etc....

    ... then again, if they didn't like trailers they wouldn't be in this thread i suppose.

    Considering the fact that as soon as he draws it the lads beside him go to draw theirs I think we can say it's them he's attacking.

    It was also long claw (Jon's sword) that he drew

    A vision with the night king (Ice Maul) invading it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,175 ✭✭✭intheclouds


    Either Arthur Dayne or Gerald Hightower wielding 2 swords with the Targaryen sigil on the front of his armour?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,175 ✭✭✭intheclouds


    Also looks like Jaime Lannister leading an army dressed in full plate armour on the Great Sept.

    Reminds me of Braveheart "we didn't get all dressed up for nothing!"

    No, they're drawing with him. There's a quick shot of Aliser Thorne outside a door trying to get in. I'll bet Davos plus a few of Jons pals are protecting his body until.......

    Have you forgotten? He'll never walk again ... but he will fly, by Warging.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    How does that explain him standing up?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,047 ✭✭✭GerB40

    Its a vision. Bran had a vision before where he could stand and walk..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,367 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    "I choose violence"... deadly!

    Was that the Kingsmoot on the clifftop?

    Tower of Joy seems confirmed, in fairness the resurrection seems like the right time to confirm R+L=J.

    2 episodes into our re-watch and starting to get hyped for the season now!

    Possibly, nice album of screen caps here: http://imgur.com/a/QdqLU

    Anyone spot Jon Snow on horseback? (not a spoiler, impossible to tell if it is really him).

    Looks like there could potentially be a similar event to the Tower of Joy with Davos and Ghost among others defending Jon Snow's body until help comes. I think it could work well if Bran was going back to the Tower of Joy scene itself and they cut to and from both scenes simultaneously.

    No it is Jamie, at the steps of the sept, in front of the faith militant

    Well no one has really read a book for this series as there hasn't been one written


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,522 ✭✭✭✭JRant


    Oh, it's on like Donkey Kong now.

    Can't bloody wait.

    Every episode will have something completely new to digest.

    Exactly.

    So no sign of Poderick in the trailer then? Or Edmure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,047 ✭✭✭GerB40

    They're not gonna show Edmure in any trailers, they'll keep him for a 'holy **** he's back moment!!!'. But it's pretty much been confirmed he'll be back so I doubt it'll be too unexpected..

    Euron has no eyepatch :(

    I wouldn't mind if they gave him a fúckin afro, as long as he's the same lunatic he is in the book then it's all good in the hood...

    Exactly.

    Or Gendry, the poor guy's arms must be knackered

    As soon ah he lands with his stick sized arms some chap will turn to him and say 'you even lift brah?'. With D&D I wouldn't actually be too surprised...

    Gonna spoiler this as its not seen in the trailer, but whats peoples opinion on The Hound returning?

    Its getting alot of legs in recent days after comments from Ian Mcshane but he coild have been talking about anyone really!

    Ah cmon! McShane specified who his character was in one interview and said he would be bringing a beloved character back to life then followed it up in a radio interview where two dead characters were named directly to him and said it wasn't the latter but might be the former.

    There really is no one else it could be.
