Any fellow fans? This strikes me as a good place to talk about the show, as it's only on for like six weeks, so the thread wouldn't last too long, and I prefer in-depth analysis and back and forths with a handful of devoted fans instead of the "drive-by/meme" comments of social media.
Just a few topics we could discuss revving up to Sunday's episode!
Predictions for this season?
Umm...lots of deaths, including some fan favorites, and a lot of sacrifices. I think either Brienne or Jamie will die, perhaps either sacrificing themselves for the other, which I hate because I love them both as characters. I also think either Grey Worm or Missandei will bite it, as they can't let many, or any, "couples" make it through intact. I think Jon Snow will end up ruling (simply because he's the one who doesn't want it). Oh and Hound kills Mountain, perhaps after Mountain kills/almost kills Arya, who is coming to get him? OMG a Hound/Arya team-up taking down the Mountain would be an epic scene.
If you could, who would you give plot armor to?
Tyrion, Sam, Brienne, Jamie
Of all the characters, who would make the best ruler? (Even among those who don't legitimately have a chance to rule
Jon Snow has already had to make tough decisions, so him. But also perhaps Tyrion, or even Brienne (lol I could write fan fiction in a spin off where she rules, with Jamie as her hand, which yes is ironic)
Who do you think will end up on the throne, if anyone?
Jon Snow, but I'm sure there will be a swerve or three.
