I'll be watching the episode when I get home from work at around 5am. Hopefully I'm busy tonight and won't have time to look at TexAgs which is usually how I kill time on nights.

I'm honestly pretty excited for this episode. We should get a lot of story advancement for a lot of characters

For people wondering where Bran was wargling to during the battle, I thought it was clear that he was with the ravens following the NK. As soon as the NK approached Bran he came back. I don't think theres anything more to it than that.

I wonder if they'll have some surprising deaths tonight in what most would expect to be a setup episode. Probably not.

Only read below if you read /r/freefolk. Not spoiling anything, but I want to be safe for everybody.
I'd recommend completely avoiding that site if you want to stay pure for the next 3 weeks.

freefolk is losing their **** over current spoilers right now. Rumored spoilers for tonight (that I've seen video of) make total sense and inline for the theme of GoT. Everything I've seen/read for future weeks is terrible.

I think it was more obvious than common sense. The issue is by doing that, Bran did nothing. It's hard for people to watch a major character, in a crucial episode, do absolutely nothing. So they create things to justify him just sitting there.

Yeah that place is in full meltdown and while I at least want to think some of the rumored leaks are false, its already bad writing if they are true

what I read for tonight is fine. Totally OK with that for the direction of the show and consistent with a buildup show. I have seen video evidence. Stuff for the next 2 episodes WHICH I HAVENT SEEN VIDEO OF sounds terrible.

Is it safe to say much of the consternation has to do with book readers trying to rectify the show version of a story that has been fairly different?

Not in regard to Wangus' and my conversation.

No not really. We left the books behind after Season 5 for the most part.

Most of the changes were concerning simplifying plots or condensing characters which was understandable - some extraneous (seeming) things were cut mostly but to be honest GRRM is waaaaaayy to verbose anyway.

I never had any problem with things being trimmed from the books.

As for a different direction- hard to say - the books left us off with:

Jon dead(ish)
Dany in Dothraki wasteland
Tyrion on Essos like a circus performer basically and has not met Dany yet
Jamie is not sent to Dorne but riverrun
Sansa did not go back to WF, marry Ramsay or see Theon
Stannis alive and did not burn Shireen
Tommen alive but incompetent ruler.
Brienne working on behalf of LSH
Mance is still alive
Loras is never arrested, Margaery is because of Cersei's lies but later proven innocent of adultery.

So that ship (different than the books) sailed a looooooong time ago.

Bizarre to start the show half way through the unfinished books. Enjoyable so far though. The dialogue has dumbed down a tad, and some dumb battle tactics, but so far nothing dimishing the overall entertainment value.

The biggest mystery may be the most interesting/complex varys going quiet/inept, but in a way even that makes sense as i expect his quick exit from kings landing would logically have deprived him of his money/network/influence. And frankly there was not much 'intrigue' to dealong with zombies.

most of the people complaining haven't read the books (just based on their comments about book readers)

I'm not gonna lie, Howland Reed is my favorite running meme on this thread. Can't believe it started off as a serious discussion lmao

I bet the show writers thought Martin would have completed at least one book....

At least on this thread we know the majority of us have put a lot of actual thought into this and we're watching the episode intently.
Is there anything worse than hearing a podcast or radio talk show discuss things half-assedly?
I agree, but I enjoy the PMT guys talk about GoT

I'm almost more excited for tonight than I was last week. Mainly, because I have no clue where things are going now, beyond speculation.

So I just read a story that spent a moment on John as he was about to become dragon ash. He was yelling "Go...go". I thought he was just screaming.... speculation is that he was distracting the dragon so Arya could get past him. I went back a re-watched, he is indeed yelling Go. Twice, one long and one short.
