Game of Thrones "Spoiler" Thread II
 

If they add it, they'll treat it like a talent he didn't know he had that came alive when he needed it to. Which will feel lazy and convenient.

Did they ever talk about Robb warging in the book? I didn't think they did. Everyone but him I thought.

Ah interesting.

Not directly, but he definitely had an empathic link to Grey Wind.

It seemed implied to me. As I recall, though, they never mentioned it for Sansa or Rickon. Sansa was prissy and Rickon was very young. Maybe they just hadn't figured out how yet. Or maybe they just didn't inherit the trait.

I recall Martin mentioning how Stark-like Jon, Robb and Arya looked but never Rickon and Sansa. Maybe they were more Tully.

They kind of implied that Robb could warg Grey Wind on the battlefield, though it is never stated outright. Bran is clearly the most powereful warg, but Arya and Jon both warg their wolves at times in the books, and Arya wargs a cat too.

Sansa lost her wolf early when that bitch Cersei made Ned kill Lady, so she never really developed the warging ability. They hint at Rickon doing it also in the crypts of winterfell, but mainly shaggy dog is a bit wilder and more uncontrolled just like Rickon, so Rickon's wolf at least takes on his personality even if he's not a full warg.

The wolves all have a connection to each other as well as they can tell that Grey Wind and Lady are dead. I think Summer senses that loss one time when Bran is warging her, or maybe it was Ghost, I can't remember.

It is hard to tell with Robb and Rickon since we never get a POV from either, at least so far. It is interesting to me that Rickon has never had a POV chapter. Robb never did, and I think it might be because none of the kings ever get a POV, and he was a king. The queens do (Cersei and Dany), but never a king. It makes me wonder if Rickon might end up being king of the north at some point.

Free HBO this weekend and I watched the entire season 5 friday... wow.

Cant believe Stannis sacrificed his daughter, that bastard. He was not fit to rule the seven kingdoms... clearly.

And the mfers killed off yet ANOTHER important Stark, man I HATE THAT... it reminds me of an SNL skit where Bobby Moynihan plays George RR and says something like "every time you fans complain about the story, I will kill another Stark."

Also disappointing...

Thought I'd read somewhere that the Hound made a return this year.

I also read that we'd get to see the Mountain Zombie in action.

And last but not least... pretty much EVERYONE on this show has been naked at some point, but we get a Lena Heady body double for the walk of shame :banghead:

The cgi wasn't too good on it either, her head on that body looked unnatural.

Not really a big fan of this season at all.

I love this guys videos.

Maybe the King's blood that Melisandre and the lord of light needed was Stannis all along.

A comment from the video.

Didn't Martin allude to the idea that he was using Grey Wind for scouting the enemy?

I'd kinda like to see them go back to Robert and Ned as younger men and the storyline of Ned's sister, etc.

That wish will be granted next season.


Tower of Joy is happening, folks.

Cool. I'd like to see Jojen's father take out Arthur Dayne.

I'm most interested in seeing Dawn. Want to see if they show it as Lightbringer or if the fan theories are way off
