I think The Mountain will get more screen time than just a fight this next season. Most people barely remember The Mountain and he'll need exposition before he gets his big fight. The show is really good at this; most people barely knew who Roose Bolton was from season 2 and he got more screen time to build up for his big moment.
My prediction, Arya+Hound scenes will be followed by The Mountain scenes. I.E The Hound talking to Arya about how bullshit chivalry and knighthood is, then cut to a scene of The Mountain doing Mountainy stuff like chopping Locke to pieces and feeding him with his own flesh until he's a limbless stump.
Yeah, I think that's gonna happen too. They usually spend about a season or so to do (s)expository scenes before they do something meaningful. I too am hoping that Locke will turn outlaw ('cause Jaime stole Brienne from his bear and he got mad at roose or something) and get captured by Ser.
As for the new chapter, I'm super hype now haha. I can't wait for Winds of Winter. Tyrion watching the dragons burning the disease-infested corpses before eating them is such a cool image in my head. It's like a great line of defense versus plaguuuuuuuuuuu

Maybe this is unreasonable of me, but can we limit discussion about the unreleased chapters to a minimum? I can't be the only one who doesn't want to read the pre-released chapters yet, and don't want to hear second hand opinions about those GRRM read at conventions.
Or at the very least, put it in spoilers or something.

I mean like, there is a gigantic spoiler warning at the top. If you don't want to get spoiled/influenced then this isn't the thread for you.

I agree with Mikau. Speculation should be limited to the released books. Pre-release chapter discussion put in spoilers.

As said in the warning itself, this thread will contain spoilers about things that will happen in the show. It doesn't say you should be prepared for spoilers in books that are not even released yet, and material that may not even be officially avaible. For me it's quite obvious that should be discussed in spoilers.

Let's put it to a vote???????
Someone do it cuz i dont know how to do polls, lol.
In the meantime, I'm re-reading Cercei ADWD Chapters. MAAAAAAAAAN fuck that woman. She's the reason the-c-word was invented

From the spoiler warning, emphasis mine. Unreleased chapters clearly aren't from 'books of the series ASoIaF'.

Pretty sure this was argued before and it was decided that spoiler tags were justified.

Poll incase it's needed. If not, carry on
Poll: Should discussion about pre-released chapters be put in spoilers?Yes, both pre-released chapters and chapters read at conventions should be put in spoilers. (50) 78% No, this thread is about everything written so far. Don't spoiler anything. (14) 22% 64 total votes Your vote: Should discussion about pre-released chapters be put in spoilers? (Vote): Yes, both pre-released chapters and chapters read at conventions should be put in spoilers.
(Vote): No, this thread is about everything written so far. Don't spoiler anything.
I would also like to add that only discussing the pre-released chapters in spoilers doesn't actually hurt the people who want to discuss them, that would still be very possible. At the very least it's just a courtesy to those of us (and I think there's a lot of us, even if not the majority) who don't want to be spoiled untill TWOW comes out.

Apparently this wasn't something that had already been decided firmly. Sorry for saying that it was :S . Personally I don't think there is a good reason to spoiler tag leaked chapters, but if a majority of people disagree then I'm fine with doing that.

It's not as if spoiler tags are hard. And there are plenty of people, including myself who like to anticipate the final edited chapters in the order of the book, without knowing about the chapters that are prereleased and aren't even officially available.
If you want to talk about that, I have no problem at all, but just do it in spoilers.

Ok then, let's use spoiler tags for unpublished stuff!
More Unpublished Stuff Thoughts:
+ Show Spoiler +
So I'm really looking forward to the exchanges between Victarion and Barriston. There hasn't been a lot of mingling of Westerossi people and people from Essos. Like, I can't wait for Tyrion to talk to Barriston and Victarion. I'm pretty sure that the House of the Undying prophecy about the Mummer's dragon and the lion is gonna happen right when Dany gets back with the Dothraki (?). MIOREOVOERVOER, fucking dragons eating catching corpses and burning them in the air!!!!! I can't wait for the CGI of that imagery!

Wait, The Mountain has been recast again? I suppose I'm a bit late on this but geez. Why did they not keep the first actor? He was perfect!

Probably skipped Leg Day.

Thank god its going to put into spoilers.
I stopped visiting this thread completely for the past month because someone revealed that + Show Spoiler +Kevan Lannister is going to die.
I came to this thread just to see if the past spoiler has been passed. And to my great likings, I can finally revisit my favorite thread!
Thank you guys! Really appreciate it!

Wait, I think you misunderstand something here. The whole spoiler thing only concerns anything from the unreleased books. What happens to Kevan would not fall under that, since it happened in A Dance with Dragons.

yea, that's the end of ADwD (pretty sure its even called the epilogue)
also, is that theon preview-chapter from TWoW part of the spoilered discussion? its technically already in the books

The chapter from Kevan Lannister's POV is part of ADwD and doesnt not need to be spoilered.
The preview of Theon is from TWoW, an unreleased book. It needs to be spoilered.

I agree. Everyone who does not want to be spoilered by TWoW stuff intentionally did not read that chapter, either.
