MNDY:Wow.I am just seeing this.I believe I know those names because I have watched all 50 episodes of GOT at least five times.I read novels a lot and ASOIAF is not on the list of books I intend to read anytime soon.Ser Dontos Hollard came to Joffery's nameday drunk and Joffery ordered that he be killed but Sansa pleaded for his life and asked that he be made Joffery's fool instead and Joffery agreed.Stannis death was not shown on-screen.He was killed by Brienne but there was no battle.She killed an already wounded Stannis.Ser Davoos Seaworth is still alive.Stannis sent him on an errand to Castle Black when he decided to kill his daughter because he knew he was going to protest.The hound left at the battle of blackwater(Season 2 episode 9) because Tyrion's battle strategy was to use wildfire.(The Hound's face was burnt by his brother Gregor the mountain when they were boys and this has left him with a morbid fear of fire ever since... |

...the boy's name is Jojen Reed son of Howard Reed(Ned Stark's friend from the books).Arya became blind because she left her duty at the house of faces to kill Ser Meryn Trant(the man who murdered her dancing master Syrio Forel in season 1).Sansa was raped by Ramsay on the night of their wedding with Theon watching.Theon realized himself at the end of season 5 and tried to escape with Sansa.The grand maester pycelle was arrested when he failed Tyrion's test to determine which member of the small council he could really trust when he assumed his father's role as hand of the king.The mountain and the hound actually fought in season one when mountain tried to kill Loras Tyrell at the tourney of the hand before King Robert stopped them.Remember when he cut off the head of his horse after he lost.Regarding incest, the Targayryens's were marrying brother and sister for hundreds of years to keep bloodlines pure.That is why they always have silver hair and almost golden skin and occasional madness.So it's nothing. |

Ranchhoddas: I just saw a prediction from Cleganebowl that The Hound may probably engage his brother The Mountain in a trial by combat with the former defending the Faith religion and the latter defending Cersei (for charges of murder)in the next season! - Can you imagine Stannis? So annoying! - |

Ranchhoddas: Sir Devoss would surely have protested! He made Robert's ba.stard (marked for burning) to escape . . . remember? What was Sir Devoss' reaction upon finding out? He became close with the girl who taught him how to read - Battle of Blackwater I think I remember! The one with Tyrion's army of those bush-savages to King's Landing for Joeffrey's ascension, battle in which Tyrion's face was slashed and Tyrion is still unable to unravel who sent his attempted killer (thanks to Tyrion's squirre)! I didn't see where The Hound stated declining from going for the battle! - Apparently, Brienne killed Stannis for killing Renly through The Red Woman! Brienne seems be from the place where Renly ruled, and I think Joeffrey's queen turned Thoman's queen with her mother and her brother in King's Landing are from there too! |

Ranchhoddas: I also missed scenes of Arya's blindness! She was said to have killed a man who wasn't hers to kill resulting in her blindness, but I don't understand the link! |

isaiah9:You guys are missing what is happening... Arya is the main actor in that movie as she would take the lead to conquer other kingdoms. Just watch. They are gradually pushing the baton of leadership to her. |

Ranchhoddas:Bro, downloading movies online is something I love to do but honestly, I don't even know reliable place to get best movies plus the fact that data is unlimited in Nigeria and Series movies are giga bytes not mega makes it even harder...

Ranchhoddas: My GAME OF THRONES friend, season 6 will be premiered tonight! How come I have this very funny feeling that Peter Baelish (Little Finger) will be killed somehow someway in this season - I got fuller copies of all seasons so far to catch up with missed parts! I've never come across a thing like this show that is so brilliantly made, subliminal and LIFE CHANGING! - I'm so hooked and obsessed that I re-watch and re-watch over and over again without getting tired! - HBO has a way of blending real life issues into the making of this show! And the said words by the characters are amazingly and intelligently composed with super skills! |
Re: Game Of Thrones: Some Fascinating Facts, Behind The Scene Magics We Dont Know. by MNDY(m): 12:47pm On Apr 24, 2016 |
Ranchhoddas: HALL OF FACES - Wow, what a nicely coined name for one of the episodes in the upcoming season, the episode is expected to center on what happens next in the part concerning the many-faced-god vis-a-vis Arya's blindness! - I would really love a return to Qarth as the series continue! I love that place! - There are speculations of an episode called THE BATTLE OF THE BASTARDS involving a fight between Ramsy and Jon Snow! However, let's see how Jon's resurrection (or not) will go! - We hope Sir Devos and co. succeeds in barring the other Night's Watch men as briefly seen from the trailer |

MNDY:Technically it's tomorrow...9pm eastern time is 2am in Britain and thus 3am in Nigeria and you only get to watch it if somehow you have access to HBO or sky atlantic.It should be available for download a few hours later though...People I expect to die this season are The High Sparrow, Jorah Mormont,one of the Greyjoy's(Yara or Theon), one Bolton(Ramsay or Roose). It promises to be an exciting season.I can hardly wait!#GOT |

'Game Of Thrones' Season 6 Premiere Review: The Red Woman Credit: HBO Well Game of Thrones is back. The night is dark and full of terrors. Winter is coming. And lots of big surprises—some good, some bad—follow me as we embark on the sixth season of HBO’s fantasy drama. Let’s go through the episode piece by piece, beginning in… The North We may as well, since we’re discussing Brienne’s valiant rescue to begin with. The lady knight was already waiting around Winterfell to rescue Sansa, which is why she was able to stumble so fortuitously on Stannis Baratheon and introduce him to her blade. (To be fair, he could still be alive. I suspect we’ll discover the truth of it next week.) It makes sense, then, that she’d show up even if the timing was a little too perfect. If I were a savvy knight, I’d follow the trackers sent to hunt Sansa down rather than try to find her myself. In any case, she and Podrick both ride in and save the day, though perhaps the most important moment was when Theon stabbed the Bolton soldier and saved Podrick. It’s good to see Reek falling off, and Theon emerging. I loved this scene mostly because it’s the first good thing that’s happened in a long time on Game of Thrones. It’s one horrible event after another sometimes—the end of Season 5 was so bleak, so sad, so depressing—that this small victory feels all that much more profound. Of course, the North isn’t all sunshine and roses. Ramsay is out for blood, and he won’t stop looking for Sansa simply because she’s escaped his first hunting party. Castle Black isn’t even a decent refuge for her now that Jon Snow has been murdered, though she won’t know about that yet. At Castle Black we have several of Jon’s friends in the Watch holed up with Davos, Melisandre and Ghost, Jon’s Direwolf. Oh, and Jon’s very dead body. Ser Alliser Thorne has taken control of the Night’s Watch and, in spite of some grumblings and discontent, seems to have the place firmly under his thumb. Things aren’t looking good for our small handful of brothers, though reinforcements might be on the way in the form of Wildlings. Perhaps the most interesting moment of the entire episode came at the very end, however, when we see Melisandre alone in her chambers, once again stripping naked—though this time she’s alone. She removes the choker from around her throat, and suddenly she changes. We see her reflection in the dark mirror: She’s old, withered away, sagging and tired. Her youth and beauty is nothing more than a powerful illusion. This reminds me of the sorceresses from The Witcher games, who mask their age and look young and beautiful to all the world. Pretty fascinating, though I’m not sure yet what to make of it. Melisandre, the Red Woman, seems to have lost her faith. Meanwhile, Davos thinks she may be their only salvation. I still wonder if she will be the one to bring Jon Snow back… Let’s set sail, and head to… the south 1 Like |

Credit: HBO The South Dorne, to be precise. Here events transpired that I would not have predicted in my wildest of prognosis. Ellaria Sand and the Sand Snakes overthrow Prince Doran. In the first few moments of the scene, both Doran and Areo Hotah are killed. What!!!?? While we don’t know where the books may go at this point, I can’t help but think this is wildly far from what Martin has planned for Doran. Ellaria treats her lover’s brother with disdain, as some weakling, but in the books at least Doran is calculating and patient and ultimately far more clever than this. Unless we’ve all been bamboozled, I (and many others) had come to believe that Doran was playing a very long and careful game (of thrones) and that he had quite a bit more to say on the matter. Not so in the show, however. Ellaria is the new boss it would seem. Doran and his son Tristane are dead for a ducat dead. Ellaria is no schemer. Does this mean Dorne will raise its banners and go to war immediately? It would seem almost necessary at this point. I’m not sure I really like this at all, to be honest. Doran is an interesting character, and killing him outright because he wouldn’t march off to war seems drastic. I mean, Ellaria is mad because Oberyn was killed in a fight. So she kills his brother? I guess I’ll reserve judgment until we see how this plays out, but after this and some other stuff that happened tonight and last season, I’m more impatient than ever for Martin to finish Winds of Winter, if only to compare these two very different works of fiction. We’ll hop on another ship and sail north again, this time hovering just above Jaime Lannister’s shoulder, so that we can see that look of pain on Cersei’s face when we finally reach… King’s Landing While I loathe Cersei in the books, I can’t help but feel sorry for her in the show. Game of Thrones paints a far more sympathetic character in the Queen Regent, though she’s still fairly nasty, petty and cruel, and much of her fate comes from her own bad choices. She blames a prophecy, but had Cersei been wiser and less brash, or raised a better child in Joffrey, it’s possible all her children would be alive and none of this madness would have happened to begin with. Jaime and Cersei are close again, and I’m not sure how that’s supposed to play out. I suppose they’ll need to first deal with the High Sparrow, and then set their sights to both the North, where Roose Bolton has betrayed them, and to the South where the Dornish will be presumably mustering an army. Since the show has killed off Stannis and his army, that’s not really a concern anymore. Also in King’s Landing we find Margaery Tyrell, still imprisoned by the High Sparrow. She asks about her brother Loras, whose crime was being gay, and refuses to confess to things she didn’t do even when the High Sparrow asks nicely. Will she and her brother be rescued by the Lannisters? Could Jaime save the pair of them? It seems likely. Jaime will once again be cleaning up his sister’s messes. Things are heating up in King’s Landing, but not a whole lot else happens here, so we’ll sail further still, heading… more coming soon |

FrankValency:Was the name Areo Hotah ever mentioned on the show or do you just know it from the books? |
Re: Game Of Thrones: Some Fascinating Facts, Behind The Scene Magics We Dont Know. by magabounce(m): 9:14pm On Apr 25, 2016 |
FrankValency:Very good analysis But I guess cercei's dealing with the high sparrow would play in the Tyrell's favour or giving her deceptive nature, she could simply allow things the way they are, just to punish the Tyrells |
