Actually it wasn't the real horn according to Tormund Giantsbane. The "real one" is currently with Sam at the Citadel.

Let me just say how happy I am to see this thread finally made! Love the discussions.

And also let me say how confused I am that somebody thinks Bran is a scumbag. How can a ten year old be a scumbag? Anxiously waiting for this explanation. Should be fodder for a juicy bit of debate.

Doubtful, the real question is will he become Azhor Azhai reborn or was he just wounded?

I could write several pages about why (removed). If anyone would like to hear some of the arguments just PM me. I'd rather keep those kind of long term (spoilerish) type things out of the thread for others sake.

Also......Davey- PM sent.

Soooooo, Lothic. If Buffy is essentially Wonder Woman, then I guess you have seen her on TV in the last 30 years.

Late Book Spoilers................you've been warned.......................

(Slight book spoilers...nothing too specific)


Yeah it would only make sense to combine Feast and Dance given they take place at the same time. Whether or not it would be one or two seasons is debatable and depends on how the important the happenings in Dorne turn out. I also think the famous Myrenese Knot that GRRM struggled with so much can be pared down considerably to convey the same thing. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if the three slaver cities end up being only one.

(Not addressed to anyone specifically, just in general)

I think fans have gotten way too worked up about the delay of the last few books and the future of the franchise. GRRM has addressed those issues (like the reasons or not) and given the freight train that is ASOIAF now as compared to 10 years ago there is no way you'll see delays like you did before. Too many people are relying on them to come out now. The books will be completed before the series. I have no doubt. (Unless the series is pulled before for other reasons.......(see Luck) )

I probably cared 17 years ago. Now? Not so much.

(For clarity, that isn't a jab at anyone that still enjoys the show or a knock on the show itself. It's just odd he breaks this info out this many years later.)

And it was also confirmed that season 3 will be the first half of Book 3.

Where did you see that, Antistar? At the top of my head I can't think of a house with a shark sigil. The Kraken is Greyjoy, the trout is Tully, the merman is Manderlay but I can't say I remember reading about a house and a shark sigil. Will do a bit of research and see.

I really enjoyed Episode 2.

Especially:

1. Pyke. A pitch perfect representation of that part of the book. Balon was great and Yara (Asha) while not how I'd pictured her was an interesting and I think, a successful take on the character.

2. Arya and Gendry. Great chemistry between the two. The other recruits (young and old) were done well too.

3. Tyrion's scenes were great as usual, especially sending Slynt packing to the Night's Watch. Also his back and forth with Cersei over the death of their mother sheds some important light into his motivations and demons.

4. Gilly and Sam and Ghost. Nice work on the dire wolves for a tv budget.

This season looks incredible. Movie quality cinematography and again surprisingly good child actors.

I would go into the few shortfalls the episode had (Ros and Littlefinger), but overall it was a very strong episode and it overcame such a small scene anyway.

Will it even go in rad infection?

ABRACAPOCUS!
