And right now, nobody shits abot Castle Black and everyone plays Game of Thrones, while more dangerous things might happen soon. This has been confusing me somewhat since the beginning of the season. The red woman told Stannis that the war over King's Landing doesn't matter and the real war is up in the north. It was for that reason that he let Davos live, as the fire god indicated he has a part to play in that war. They seem to have forgotten all about that. Can someone explain (without book information)? | ||

We don't know how much Mance has communicated with the Wildlings on the other side of the wall. They have Wargs, so I guess it is possible that they sent word about Jon's betrayal. In any case, it is probably gonna look suspicious as hell when Jon walks up to the Wildling army in a Crow "uniform" and not in his wildling clothing. Maybe he is gonna spin a wild story about double-crossing and tripple-crossing like in Indiana Jones 4. He is gonna be like "I betrayed you so I could betray them again and now I am totally loyal to you" and then Indie is gonna show up and punch him in the fucking face. Yes. | ||

I brought this issue up at the middle of this season too. My guess is that, while theyre aware of the imminent dangers of the Wall. They cant do anything about it as long as their soldiers are starving/depleted. So they just get gold and hire mercs as the first step? Seems logical to me, just lacked explanation. | ||

The only reason they haven't done anything about the north is because they don't have anything to do stuff with. He had little to no army and no money. They went to the Iron Bank and got their money, and therefore army. Now they can actually do something. Whether they go to the wall before or after conquering Kings Landing is up to question though. | ||

It seems the logical decision is to come in and save the day form the white walkers after King's Landing is too weak to betray him or contend for the throne. | ||

All it did was make shit easier to dodge because they can see it coming. There was the same discussion for the Battle of Blackwater Bay. Fire arrows are used at night because they act as tracer ammunition. The archers know where their arrows are heading and can adjust aim accordingly. If they weren't lit up, they'd have a much harder time knowing where they were firing. | ||

That and the fact that if you were a named character you took out a guy every time you swing your sword unless fighting another named character, and if you aren't a named character you die in one swing of the sword. It's typical of most action movies, and it can be entertaining, but it's doesn't keep you locked in the "anyone can die" state of mind that the previous main character deaths worked so hard to create. See it as an MMORPG, where named characters are legendary lvl 60's while everyone else are regulare lvl30's that get one hit by legendaries  | ||

Even if they figured out how to have their wargs sent birds to the other camp, what would they carry? I doubt Tormund, or any of his gang, can read and write. Message by bird is pretty high tech in the rest of the realm (only the scientist Maesters seem to know how to), it's really doubtful the Wildlings have anything close to that, even with Wargs. | ||

Apparently they can spread news like wildfire, every event seems to be communicated to every single castle in westeros. | ||

David Benioff and Dan Weiss on the last episode of the season: “It’s the best finale we’ve ever done, bar none." They added that they are so “immensely proud” of the finale that there are concerns no future episode will better it. Since the last episode is called "The Children", we can already make some assumptions for what it stands for: - Daenerys announces that she wants to have children - Children help Tyiron escape the prison - Children beat each other up in the North - There will be a big Lannister children's party - The Hound adopts Sansa and Arya as his children User was warned for this post | ||

Not that any of this is wild prediction, but just to be safe. + Show Spoiler + Or more probably the divergent resolutions to the subplots of Tywin and Ned's children, with Tywin's struggling over whether to kill one of their own and Ned's struggling to stop the wildling army/become biffles with littlefinger/survive as the Hound gets sicker/and... wait, what is Bran doing again? | ||
