Just thought of something else. When we hear about Bloodraven in the Dunk and Egg series, he is said to have a thousand and one eyes. When the Three Eyed Crow introduced himself to Bran in the season finale, he said that he had a thousand and one eyes.

Bloodraven is one of the people who could be the three eyed crow. He is a likely candidate .

The lady who plays Catelyn Starksaid in an interview that Lady Stoneheart will not be included in the show. I do not know if I believe her though. Without Stoneheart, where does Jamie and Bienne storyline go?

At the end of the last book Breinne had shown up at Pennyhill or where ever it was, and told Jamie that he had to come with her to save Sansa from The Hound.
Brienne obviosly escaped Stoneheart somehow and is about to lead Jamie to her, apparently.

So if Stoneheart is not included in the show, then how will that storyline proceed? Arya is gone, Bienne is not going to catch back up to her. Sansa is tucked away with Littlefinger, he is not going to let Brienne get near Sansa not to mention Bienne would have a tough time even figuring out where Sansa even is. I cannot even see Sansa going with Brienne even if the two ever met up.Sansa is not going to trust Brienne, especially if Sansa learns that it was Brienne who "killed" the Hound. I don't think Sansa is going to be too happy about that.

We will see, I guess, soon enough.

The only alternative I see would be to have Dondarrion start hanging Freys which lacks the same oomph.

Yeah that would work, actually. Maybe we won't be seeing Stoneheart.

Stoneheart has to return. She is the spoon that stirs the pot. She is the cause for all this. lol

Sean Bean may well have revealed a major spoiler in an interview?

Something a lot of you may not be aware of but Martin revealed to each actor something that only their character would know. A way to help the actors be able to give their characters better life or something.

Anyway, it's been speculated that Martin has revealed to Sean Bean the truth about Jon Snow.

Now, for the spoiler-
Spoiler
In the interview Sean Bean says -
Sean Bean about Ned Stark wrote:"I've definitely got some unfinished business that needs to be resolved there. I'm obviously not Jon Snow's dad and you need that to be revealed at some point, don't you?"
He's speaking to the interviewer BTW. Bean had been asked something about if he'd like to return to GoT in upcoming episodes, imagine through flashbacks or visions and such. And Bean is saying he's open to doing that, that he'd like to play some more Ned Stark scenes.
But the thing is he just revealed that he's definitely not Jon Snow's father.

Now sure, we've all speculated that Ned isn't Snow's father, but as far as the show and the books go Ned is Snow's father, and it's Snow's mother who is the mystery. But we've never gotten any solid evidence that Ned isn't Jon Snow's bastard son.

Now we can know with near certainty that we don't know who Jon Snow's father or mother is. Actors from GoT have revealed spoilers before, the guy who plays Sam Tarly revealed before season 4 started that there would be no Coldhands appearing in the show for example.

This also brings to mind something that Ned told Jon Snow the last time the two actually spoke to each other. Ned said something to the effect- "You may not have my name, but you have my blood running in your veins" Now that implies that Jon Snow is Ned's biological son, on the one hand. But if Ned isn't Jon Snow's biological father then what Ned Stark says here takes on a whole new meaning, doesn't it?

Anyway, maybe you all don't think that's a spoiler, I dunno. It wouldn't surprise me at all if it is eventually revealed that Ned isn't Jon's biological father, but it's kind of douche that Sean Bean kinda lets the cat out of the bag before the cat's actually let out of the bag. IMO.

Bran and his tree buddy are gonna sit in their masturbation chamber while they spy on naked women undressing next to those red-leafed trees. The little kid-like creatures will provide them food and clean up the cum. This will continue until G. Martin dies or until the series ends. (Yeah, Bran will probably be able to control a dragon).

Tyrion is smart but physically weak, so he'll need to attach himself to someone powerful (like he always does). Tyrion has a knack for survival, so I expect and hope that he'll make it. Also, I'm expecting him to team up with the Dragon Girl, who has serious faults of her own--e.g. unable to effectively use her dragons, unable to make reasonable political moves. E.g. let the dragons loose and pay people compensation for their dead children. She shouldn't have left so many enemies around her, so she'll be duking it out for awhile in the Free Cities/Whatever Cities region, unless she makes the hard choice of abandoning her city and taking her whoever with her (good luck, it's not cheap to move a big army by sea. She'll probably lose a lot and then regain it in Westeros or closer by).
  • What's up with that purple(?)-haired kid on some boat, claiming to be some bigshot? Is he a supposed Targayrian? (No, I don't exert enough effort to correctly spell the proper names).

    Oh, and there's got to be SOMEBODY capable of training dragons. Those things are practically worthless, and whoever can command them can take them from that soft-hearted dragon lady and do some real damage. I'm thinking (and hoping) the dragon lady, Danaerys, gets killed. I'm really tired of her story.
I don't see Sansa killing Littlefinger. She's been a coward her whole life, and for her to redeem herself with that act goes against the grain of the GoT series. There's many people like her that willingly resign themselves to their own slavery, so she should serve to remind the readers and viewers of that fact. Even better, she gets sold to one of John Snow's enemies who'll try to use her as a bargaining chip, but that probably won't happen since Littlefinger needs her to indirectly control the Vale.

Stannis, John, the 'Wild People', and whover's charging to the wall are gonna fight some big battle against the undead, cold dudes. Winter's coming, so the undead cold dudes can push further south. Expect fun. If the Lannisters keep losing more control over the realm, then the Ramsey/Bolton crew is going to ditch them and place their bets on Stannis and/or John (one of them will probably die in battle or murder the other).

Arya, the soon-to-be professional assassin, is the biggest wildcard. She could kill anybody and shift the whole series, so it's hard to say what she'll do. She may even kill Tyrion.



Also, if you got spoilers beyond the book series, then use the spoiler tags please.

Martin gave an interview recently where he revealed a startling fact. He was asked a question regarding fan theories of how the series ends and Martin revealed that indeed, there are a few fans who have successfully figured out exactly how the series ends-
G RR Martin wrote:At least one or two readers had put together the extremely subtle and obscure clues that I’d planted in the books and came to the right solution.

Yeehawww! Someone out there on some message board or youtube video has laid out the clues correctly and guessed what happens to all the major characters.

Link has all the pertinent's.

I mean, given how MANY theories there are, that's just saying that the law of averages works (seriously, of all the pages on the ASOIAF forums and on Reddit, only one or two are right?). Now, the trick is figuring out which one, or wondering if it's just George messing with us...
