SPOILER WARNING If you only watch the show, this thread will spoil you of future events in HBO's Game of Thrones. Thread contains discussion of all books of the series A Song of Ice and FireClick Here for the spoiler-free thread. |
Don't forget the hints regardin the Horn that (might) destroy the wall. The one that got burned was "confirmed" to be a fake, so either it could be the horn Sam has in Oldtown (is that why the faceless man is there?) or somewhere else, lol maybe the Others have it themselves
Btw: I am 99% sure Coldhands will show up in the next episode. I was doubting (like others) that they might had cut him. But:
Coldhands guides Bran Stark, Hodor, Meera and Jojen Reed to the last greenseer north of the Wall. Along the way he kills men of the Night's Watch. Bran, having slipped into Summer as a warg, discovers this and confronts him in the abandoned village. They discover that Coldhands is indeed dead, but he continues to refuse to show his face. Unknown to Bran is that the men Coldhands killed were the surviving traitors responsible for the mutiny at Craster's Keep
This would explain why they changed it up with Bran getting caught by the deserters. I would be schocked if he don't show up to SUPRISE viewers. The question is, IF he shows up, will he ride his Elk? (I mean, he HAS to, right?)

He's not gonna show up. He has not been cast.

Why spoil the secret with announcing it?
+ We are not suppose to know who is he is
.....
But you might (probably) be right  buuuh
edit: They also haven't shown that Cat returns (and she will) so for now i still believe

I guess I should have said, he has not been cast, it's likely that he will not show up.
They can always have one of the existing actors play him or do it purely with CGI or something.
So there is a chance. But I believe that Leaf has been cast and given coldhand's primary role, I don't see why he couldn't be straight up replaced with Leaf.
|
Simple reason why cold hand will be in:
He is too awesome.
Make a living dead arrive, butcher the whole crew at Craster's keep and then hohoohoo best friend for ever with Bran? You think they will miss the opportunity to scare everyone about how Bran will survive.
Of course everyone now is expecting Jon to save the day but Jon will arrive at Craster's and see a slaughter, maybe found a clue that Bran was there...

I forget who said it, but the best summary of this sub I've heard is "If you're not a warg and you're not a targ, then you're Benjen.'

Discussion of preview for this week's episode:
+ Show Spoiler +Doesn't the preview show Jon fighting the mutineers at the end? I tend to agree that with no one credited as being cast for Coldhands, he won't show up this season. Of course it's possible he is CGI or something, but it seems like he could be done without wasting their CGI budget. He could also have another name or something in the show potentially, but they didn't bother to hide any of the other new actors character names, and frankly only book readers would know anything by reading the name in the cast list.

Trailers are always made to make you think something will happen without surprises 
ps: now Im sad that I found out the actress that plays Old Nan is dead.
I need a voiceover actress for a game with that voice!! Help!

There were rumours that Joseph Mawle (the actor who plays Benjen Stark) was seen on the set of GoT in Iceland. To be taken with a heavy grain of salt, as it is a rumour. It is also suggested that he was merely visiting.
If he weren't though, he could play Coldhands, which would certainly answer a few theories.
I will personally be disappointed if they don't show Coldhands. He's an awesome character, and it's past time they introduce him. Plus, they've been teasing us book readers a whole lot with the flock of crows that seem to hang around the Haunted Forest as of late. He's gotta be there.

Benjen being Coldhands is one of the most stupid theories which are out there tbh.

Not as stupid as Benjen being Daario.
Benjen being Coldhands would make perfect sense if it wasn't for one sentence said by Leaf.

What do you mean with "perfect sense"
What exactly makes sense there? It is ONLY a wish of many that Benjen is still part of the story, nothing more.

Coldhands is from the Nightswatch, Benjen disappeared without a trace while his comrades were turned into wights. With other characters as big as Benjen we learn what happened to them. So from that alone the theory makes some sense.
Again, why do you think it is so stupid?

She was really good, too. When she's telling Bran the stories, "Spiders, big as hounds," perfect.
Was very sad to hear she passed before they even started season 2.

It's not stupid but it does seem like an obvious red herring.

Bran doesn't even think it could be him, i mean he knows him right.
Coldhands has knowledge that benjen couldn't really have.
Coldhands died a long time ago (a cotf says this), Benjen disappeared maybe 3 years ago...
Maybe Benjen is still alive and we will see him again (even though i am no fan of that either), but if he is really Coldhands i will be very disappointed by GRRM.
|
It's sure sad when an actor's character doesn't make it, but seriously, no character in game of throne should outlive it's performer
ps. GRRM, kill faster

The fact that it looks like a red herring means it makes sense. It makes enough sense, but there's so little information supporting it, that it seems it could be there just to mislead us. So saying there's absolutelly nothing that contributes to the theory isn't right.
Not necessarily the Coldhands=Benjen theory, just that Benjen is still part of the story.

If they cut Coldhands from the show I will be sad but it seems really likely at this point. I wonder why they would though.
