Game of Thrones *Spoiler* Thread
There's been some recent confusion with the old spoiler thread, so I'm kicking off a new one for tonight's premiere. This is going to be the one for folks who've read all the books. So anything anybody might want to talk about is in bounds. Suffice to say, if you haven't read the books, you'll probably want to stay out of here until you do...
I'll bump the old spoiler-free thread shortly in case anybody's interested. For future reference the link to that one is here |

Cersei may die soon, but if so it will have to be Jamie that kills her. We know it will be Jamie or Tyrion given the valonquar prophecy, and Tyrion is going to take a while to get anywhere near Cersei at this point in the story.
The sad part is that if zombie Gregor and the Hound do fight in Cersei's trial by battle, zombie Gregor has to win because otherwise Cersei would be put to death, and I don't think Jamie would be the one doing it. I was rather hoping the Hound would defeat Gregor, but I don't see how that's possible unless the prophecy was wrong (unlikely given that much of it has already come true). Hard to know where things are heading in Kings Landing with Kevin Lannister now dead. How can Cersei get the power with all the Tyrells there? Aren't the Tyrells going to be in charge now? |

Jamie could be ordered to perform the execution, sounds like something George would write.

Hard to see Cercei dying soon. Don't think he's done torturing her yet.
Which probably means she dies immediately in the next book, of course, after Strong (who isn't Gregor) is defeated by someone who isn't the Hound...

So you think a silent mountain of a man just appears out of nowhere? A completely new person in the story line?

I want to see a shaved naked Cercei marched through the streets. After that, don't care.

Bran is a big part of the books but he is almost an after thought in the series.

I thought they devoted plenty of screen time to Bran. I think Arya is the one who's getting shorted the most so far, but I could just be misremembering.
