The one I'm most curious about is littlefinger, we didn't see him very much this season but if there are intricate masterplans to unfold I hope he will be a central part of them


Do you think cercei has more wildfire stored under the city? For some reasons I assumed she used it all for the explosion, but probably you're right and there is much more..
I hope that they don't use the wildfire card too often though

No need to telegraph the potential plot line so far ahead. As always, less is more.

I could see them using wildfire as a mean of confrontation between Jaime and Cercei, somethings like, she try to lure Dany in the city then burn it to the ground and then Jaime kill her, in a mad king recreation.

Maybe they'll try to surprise us again by having Jon Snow impervious to fire in a clutch situation, like during battle he'll survive a dragon's breath and we'll find out he's dovahkiin (!!!). Jon Snow being the closest thing to a heir to the Targaryen line, he'll somehow stumble upon the throne again.

If there wasn't, then they fucked up the reveal big time. They didn't say his name at the place where they really should have dropped the megabombs...so ok...you're going to drag it out a little longer...but then you just pretend like we knew about it the whole time. For such a big reveal, there was no real payoff. If I'm a casual GoT watcher, I probably still don't know who the fuck Jon's father is.

Just like he was impervious to fire in S1, when he burned his hand. This is Melisandre's ruby all over again.

I read somewhere that Targaryens are not always immune to fire and it's like circumstantial in some ways. So it wouldn't necessarily be a retcon.

That was a contentious point in an episode earlier this season when Dany was fireproof again after GRRM said it was a one time thing. I would be surprised if he was totally immune since Dany's brother wasn't.

I think the main problem here is that we have never seen Rhaegar, they should have shown him in some Bran vision.
Other than that i think it was fine, we heard about him a few times so if you pay attention you absolutely know about him "kidnapping" Lyanna. Then we see Lyanna with a baby, it cuts to Jon. That should be enough tbh

The big thing missing I guess is the knowledge of how long the war lasted.

Don't think we should overanalyze what happened in S1 where they were more faithful to the books. In the show I think they are "simpifying" the rule so that targaryens are immune to fire, and we should just ignore what happened in the first few seasons.

I don't think there is anything in the show that would make us think all Targaryans are immune to fire. It's really just Dany that is special. The Unburned and all.

I do wonder if she would have survived a pot of gold though...

It doesn't really make sense. Fire is one thing, Heat and smoke inhalation are another.

I was going to say it before, but I can't hold it in any longer. If it weren't for her age I would say Helen Mirren would have been a better choice for Khalisi hands down. I'm probably weird in that I'd have been totally fine with her playing it even at her age
