Game of Thrones SHOW thread for people who are confused by the book thread

well for example this new puberty-era robert arryn is not merely months removed from breastfeeding.

he breast fed quite a while.

yeah when he was like 10. now it looks like he has a Vale learner's permit

Well pretty much all of the kids have aged more than the actual timeline would allow. Rickon and Bran have definitely aged more than a few months.

Has the actual timeline only advanced a few months? It seems like it should have advanced at least a couple of years.

Didn't Littlefinger convince the people watching the Arryn boy to also go to war against Bolton?  It will be Jon/Sansa/Wildlings (army of 2k) plus the Arryn's men (unknown numbers) vs Bolton's army of 5k.

The best estimate I've read is 2-3 years since the very beginning of the show. But I was just rough estimating a few months since we've seen Bran (in season 4). A few more since we've seen Rickon, I guess.

Yes, but Jon & Sansa don't know that yet and who knows if both armies will meet up at the same time to attack the Boltons. I don't really know how far away the Vale is, but it is possible that Jon/Sansa/Wildlings could arrive to Winterfell much sooner and not have the Vale army as back up.

Do you guys want to hear another theory about how Hodor got to be Hodor?


In Bran's visions, he is actually time travelling (as evidenced by Ned hearing him) and at some point he is going to warg into young Wylis to try to warn his family of the upcoming danger. But for some reason (warging into people is bad, or warging across time is bad) that is going to screw up Wylis' mind and he is going to turn into Hodor...maybe Bran says the word "Hodor" during the warging debacle. 

[Cire]

I like that

Warging sucks, stop trying to make warging into every storyline

[Rage Against the McKee]

That's a lot better than the theory that Hodor warged into a horse and got left with a horse brain, anyway.

How old do you think little Sam looked on that ship?

Sys, Dany STOLE her HOME back

i'm intp-a, so looking for things that don't make sense is a hobby for me.  and when i find them, i don't like them.  the daenerys scene wasn't even the least logical of the episode though.  the small council scene, my god.  they could not possibly be more contemptuous of their audience.  i'm starting to dislike season 6.

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

Yeah that kid looks years older than the last season. Is that same actor?

[OK_Cat]

Obviously the same actor. I feel like you are watching a different show than the rest of us.

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

ksuw hating Dany has got to be related to lena dunham somehow

I think that would translate more to lena dunham impersonator Yara greyjoy

I like Yara a lot more than Dany. To be fair, most of my Dany dislike dribbles over from her POV chapters in the books, where her thinking is annoying as crap. But overall, if she was killed and we could focus back on Westeros, about the only character I'd miss would be Mormont.

[sys]

mormont is about 10x more annoying than daenerys.  he's one of the most worst people in either the book or show.

[star seed 7]

Yes.

[CNS]

I have a feeling that if you aren't teamdany, you are going to like this show less and less in the next year or two.

Yeah, exactly so that kid hasn't aged any more than the actors who play Bran and Rickon; which was exactly my point.

[Mrs. Gooch]

Yes.

Well hopefully he dies of greyscale soon.

[Rage Against the McKee]

I'm thinking it's going to end up being Dany vs Dorne for the Iron Throne.

[sys]

Well hopefully he dies of greyscale soon.

yes, hopefully.

So, Hodor helps Bran get to the tree where Bran learns to time travel, and while time traveling he wargs into Wylis and turns Wylis into Hodor, who later helps Bran get to the tree to learn to time travel?

Come on, guys, he just got kicked in the head by a horse...

It's got to me more complicated than that or they wouldn't have made such a big deal about it.

Also, what do you guys think of the idea that when the Mad King was hearing voices it was actually Bran talking in one of his time traveling visions?

[Gooch]

Oh, look, Ramsay Bolton is still completely dominating Westeros.

#MyGuy Dude just gets crap done.
