Game Of Thrones

Someone should start a new thread for GOT that if purely for the show and not the books and does not contain any spoilers.

Someone should get over it.

If you dont want to know what happens then watch the episode when it airs or dont come in this thread until you have watched the episode

If it contains no spoilers, and any information about any episode is a spoiler, what sort of discussion would happen in this hypothetical thread?

Are you saying they're already running out of story lines? That's a bit of a concern isn't it? Irregardless, I'm pretty sure the show writers consulted with GRRM to make sure that it all makes sense and legit even though it is a deviation. There's nothing wrong with the stories getting "expanded" in the show if GRRM had OK'd it IMO.

If that's what he's saying, he's dumb.

So I'm sure that's not what he's saying.

Settle down. Let me rephrase what I was trying to say. Once the episode airs of course the new thread would have discussions on it. I simply meant a thread where nothing would be given away until the new episode airs.

Trust me it would take a lot for me to miss the original airing. I even managed to get HBO free for 3 months right during its airing. Yeah!

Lol.
Every year i get hbo for free for three months right at the start of GOT and then cancel it.

Done it each season so far :-)

They really did deviate quite a bit. I'm not ready to write off the changes as terrible yet, since really all they've done is set things up. We'll have to see how they play out. I imagine they had Bran get captured because he really doesn't do jack squat for the longest time in the books. I would have sooner they just cut out his storyline until there's something to show rather than make crap up for him. But we'll see. On first blush it does seem a little too convenient. And there was enough stuff to cover at the Wall without doing this whole raid on the traitors thing.

...and now that I've seen the most recent episode, the changes they made to Bran's and Jon's storylines really don't bother me. Those plot deviations got resolved this episode, and didn't end up having any big ramifications. Basically they just reinforced that Bran is choosing to head further North, and spiced up his storyline a bit. With the way it all turned out, I'm okay with that.

But here's a question for book-readers. What Lysa revealed to Petyr this episode about what she did... did that information get revealed in the books? Because if it did, I either forgot it or missed it somehow.

I didn't watch the episode, what did Lysa say to Littlefinger?

I'll spoiler it for the over-sensitive types:

She said that she was the one who poisoned Jon Arryn and sent the letter blaming the Lannisters to her sister, all at Littlefinger's suggestion.

Now that I looked at the ASOIAF wiki entry for her, it looks like this did indeed get revealed in the books in this same place. I guess it had just been too long and I forgot... I think it's been almost ten years since I read it last.
 
Good to see mutineers slashed to shreds. Alas Bran and Jon not meant to be. Probably dullest of this season's episodes so far. What the heck happened to the Dragons by the way.
