To me if the dragons had taken out the main white guys, the leaders it seems like the whole clan would've died but oh well. And I'm not happy about John even figuratively taking the knee. I figured they go that way because of all the feminist **** right now and they wouldn't let a white man "win" so to speak but kind of disappointed me.

I agree on the arya/Sansa stuff it's just stupid. The only good thing Arya has done recently is return to Winterfell and when she pretended to be Fray. I mean seriously since Sansa was treated really horribly by Ramsay, I'm not even sure Arya knows that

And I think the white dragon was a pretty obvious conclusion but I still enjoyed it mostly and I'm looking forward to the series finale next week

So now I can say it...

Every single one of you that "theorized" that there would be a wight dragon read the Reddit spoilers, tried to pass them off as legitimate theories, and cheapened the impact of the moment for people.

I mean, I personally have never gone to the reddit threads on GoT, because they are filled with the worst people from this thread. That being said...

It's not exactly a crazy guess to make, but I think it's likely some of them must have seen some footage of it in action. I thought for sure one would die, and if you don't burn the bodies, they get raised up right?

Maybe that's just me.

Anyone have any good reasons why Benjin didn't just ride back with Jon? I know nothing about horses, but seems like he had a lot of time to get on allowing both to ride away. Was it simply a "no homo" thing?

I'm not one of those that put up that theory, but we've known white walkers raise the dead and they'd likely battle the dragons. This was a plot development waiting to happen. Not something someone needed a spoiler to predict.

Well we know why the Army of the Dead is so slow... they've been dragging around 4x 1,000ft 3" Marine ORC-II rated chains... just for this

Hey Jon,
How about you at least send a damn raven to Winterfell and let them know you still have a pulse.

Sincerely,
Anyone who knows anything about Littlefinger

Horse can't run with two full grown men?

You'd be surprised how good the internet hive mind is at coming up with theories that end up panning out, even without spoilers. Just look at season one of Westworld for evidence.

Not to mention there may be a bit of a feedback loop going on here. I think the writers are mining fan theories for story ideas at this point.

Or... they walked underwater all the way to Kings Landing to the Blackwater Bay and stole Tyrions chains he used there in Season 3, and then walked back underwater to Hardhome.

I hope there is a cool neck vent on Viserion now.

His namesake was a puss. Another non-spoiler reason to think something bad was going to happen to him.

Because it was more dramatic to have him ride out of nowhere, save Jon, then sacrifice himself....lazy, cliche writing....but more dramatic nonetheless.

People who ***** about stuff like this are just as bad as the people that would ***** about a woman bowing down to Jon as king.

Personally, I'd like for him to remain king or them to end the power struggle thru a marriage, but I'm not gonna fault the guy for doing that after she saves them and pledges to fight the Night King with him. That's really all he wanted from someone that asked for his fealty.

This. Did anybody actually think they WERENT going to wight a dragon at some point? I mean, we all suspected that not all the dragons would live til the end, and once dead any once living creature can be wighted. Not to mention that an Ice Dragon has been an idea floating around the ASOIAFverse for 15+ years. People posting known spoilers as their own brilliant ideas is annoying AF but I felt like this was a pretty obvious plot development.

He was, NK has been training since Rio.

Edit: fat fingers, wrong emoticon

The whole Sansa artya thing is bs. Bran knows the truth and while he went all dr. Manhattan and claims not to be bran, it's in the north's best interests to have stable leadership for the upcoming war for the dawn. So it would make sense that he would intervene if he saw Sansa and Arya in direct conflict that would endanger the north before the war.

Also, arts is not an idiot. Neither is Sansa. If they fall for little finger's trick then they will be taking a major step back from a character development angle. And the writing has just been plain too good for that. I think her giving the catspaw to Sansa was a signal. They both know little finger can't be trusted and in the trailer for the first episode of the season one of them (I forget but it was either Sansa or Arya) says "the lone wolf dies but the pack survives".

A quote we have yet to hear this season so far. It would be the perfect come uppance line to deliver to little finger as they expose and kill him for all he has done. More than that there is the sumbolism in the quote. The symbol of house stark is the Direwolf. The starks are literally and symbolically as seen by The direwolves they each raised as children, wolves. The quote means that they realize that they must stay together m, united as a pack, or die. While, this wouldn't be the first time a trailer misled us regarding the direction a show would go, GoT tends to do a good job of dropping Easter eggs and it wouldn't make sense forSansa and Arya to do such an about face after coming so far.

My money is they are letting out some rope so little finger can hang himself.

I love this show, but watching this season and last makes me really sad that he didn't finish writing them first.

I'd still like to hold out hope that Viserion comes back to Dany at the end. Since dragons are magical creatures and not typical wight animals I am hoping this will happen.

I'm not a fan on the current Arya-Sansa dynamic but I'm hoping that Arya is testing Sansa to see what she does when she's threatened. And hoping that sending Brienne away was a ploy. Because otherwise this whole subplot is an insult to them both.
