I have zero issue with a horse being about the place, it’s more that it’s just chilling out like Snoop Dogg with a joint when a city is being blown up.

Which ultimately I’m fine with if it’s a Warged horse
If it’s not I don’t know man. If it’s a horse of symbolic significance then Arya could see it when she gets knocked out.

Do we know when Arya gets up? It seemed like she came to after the destruction died down.
The horse being chill around active fires is silly sure, but during that scene we don't hear the dragon, any people, or any more destruction.

I’m no horse whisperer but I’ve seen plenty of media where people tactically try to spook horses and they run miles away, in fact didn’t this happen in GoT itself?
Horse Jesus is a small thing and again if it’s 3ER it’s fine. I wish. Could be as serene as that horse

since the books will never be completed, i think its interesting to discuss what was varys actual game plan? is he secretly a targaryen supporter? and was there anything more to littlefinger than him just wanting to get as much power as possible and bang sansa because she looks like cat who friendzoned him so many years ago? I haven't read the books far enough to really have an well constructed opinion myself, but the Alt Shift X channel on youtube has an interesting and detailed theory on Varys: + Show Spoiler +
nice video. damn that just reminded me how hard varys got nerfed by the writers. varys was always indirect. he would never be openly scheming, he was a whisperer, and he would certainly never openly approach jon snow and ask him to overthrow. just what the fuck

My point on proposals was that they are not a thing. Period. It was in relation to Gendry getting on one knee like he forgot he was in a TV show. Proposals do not exist in Westeros. If you want to marry a girl, you ask their father for their hand in marriage. This is how it works. You apparently did not understand what I said at all. The original point was: in Westeros you do not get on one knee like in real life and ask for a girl to marry you. Gendry doing this makes absolute zero sense. It's not nitpicky at all. It would be similar to Samwell Tarly whipping out a computer and doing a google search on "dragonglass" or something.
I find it perfectly reasonable Gendry doesn't follow the customs of high nobles... He grew up in the slum a place where I would assume it's fairly common you dont have any surviving parents by the time you're old enough to marry.

i wonder if we will see sansa and bran and bron and the other north characters next/final episode
im only wondering really because im not sure how long it takes to go from winterfell to kings landing
i could just google that
anyway
i think what will happen + Show Spoiler +dany kills tyrion and monk-like helper guy who was on frontlines with jon. arya gets wounded. jon dies trying to kill dany or maybe they kill each other. sansa kills dany or doesnt show up idk. or really anything like that with random different characters. i would like the treefolk/bran idea to be true tho. i gotta go to work
|
Better special effects than the original.

ugh i did not find that funny i downliked it and stopped at 5 mins fuck

With Eurons death the teleportation technology has taken a major hit, but no need to be scared, there is Bran TV to solve all these issues.

prediction:
dany executes tyrion
jon snow has had enough
dany has jon arrested and about to roast him.
OUT OF NOWHERE, THE COOLDOWN ON ARYA'S TELEPORT ABILITY IS NO LONGER ACTIVE
TELEPORT DAGGER THROW, DANY DIES.
arya rides shadowfax off into the sunset
jon says fuck off iron throne and democracy is born
how i want the show to end now that everything is ruined:
dany burns everything to the ground. arya tries to teleport in to kill dany but is immediately roasted by drogon, who counter teleports
dany rides drgon off into the sunset, repeating "break the wheel break the wheel break the wheel" to herself over and over while hugging herself and rocking back and forth and managing to not fall off the dragon
she burns winterfell to the ground
cut to bran, who has merged with a weirwood treee at this point, with a shit eating grin on his face.
cut to black
if they just kill off everyone then i'm OK with the final season, that's really the only way to salvage it at this point. all the characters are already dead/useless in my eyes.

Sweet. But where's the bitter part in that ending 
|
My prediction
+ Show Spoiler +I kinda expect both Dany and Jon to die effectively putting an end to the Targaryen house. Gendry now has right to the throne and can pull off a mega cheesy "now you wont become a lady, but a queen" proposal to Arya, Sansa become queen of the north since Gendry give fuck all about having them under his rule. Tyrion becomes hand of the king (since Gendry is just as naive if not more as Robert) or remarried with Sansa (were they ever divorced to begin with?).
Now the Targaryens are gone. Stark and Lannisters are at peace and the Baratheons are back on the throne.
That or Dany ends up all alone on the Iron Throne with everyone else dead "when you play the game of thrones you win or you die" she never played the game of thrones she just slaughtered her enemies it was never a game to her.

is bran the only character we haven't seen naked yet
(yet!!!!!)

|
|
my small prediction (at least it would be kinda neat if it happened):
+ Show Spoiler +
Jon tries to take the throne, Daenerys tries to execute him with dragon, dragon won't do it.
|
Still a chance for + Show Spoiler +Jon to be immune to dragonfire.
|
Yeah considering he burned his hand from regular fire fighting the wight in season 1.
