Game of Thrones- Tv Show- Absolutely no future book spoiler discussion.

What the hell....


The film series has butchered the Greyjoys.

Not even the drowning ceremony has remained. Bloody idiotic.

If I recall correctly I think there is a drowning ceremony scene? Albeit a brief one. Besides, the affairs of the Iron Islands become more prominent in AFFC, which won't be until season 5, so maybe we'll see more of it then.

It's physically impossible for the TV show to incorporate every detail from the books, some things have to be changed.

Also use the spoiler tags, as Deshi said, not everyone has read the books.

I have such a girl crush on Emelia Clarke.

That is fair enough seeing as from the male perspective she is rather pretty

Did anyone else think a dance with dragons was a bit disapointing? i thought being such a huge book loadsss of stuff would happen but it seemed to waffle a bit, i much prefered the other books as they seemed to get to the point more?

Secondly am i the only person who finds the iron islands plot to be soso boring?

Finally i have a bit of a theory, i think i may be wayyy off but here goes; what if lyanna stark and rhaegar had a child? after he raped her and all that, she was found in dorne which is where john snow was apparently born to some noble woman? but if ned was so honourable i don't see him fathering john but maybe that's what he promised lyanna when she was dying? because robert would have killed john if he'd have known. Thoughts?!

This theory of lynaa stark and rhaegar has alot of credence if you look at some facts, for example at the tower of joy when lynaa is dying their are kingsguards protecting her most likely at the behest of rhaegar why would they be here if not to protect a future king, when ned stark and howland reed and others arrive to free lyanna they end up killing all the kingsuards but are the only 2 remaining people to still be alive. It is said that lyanna asks ned to promise me something. Ill quote that below.

After this Ned rode to the Tower of Joy in the mountains of Dorne with six companions, and found the three final loyalist members of the Kingsguard - Ser Arthur Dayne, Ser Oswell Whent, and Ser Gerold Hightower - guarding it. They fought, and only Ned and Howland Reed survived. Ned found Lyanna inside the tower, dying.[8][9]
Prior to her death she extracted a promise, its contents as yet not revealed, from Ned.[10] Her final words a phrase that haunts her brother for the rest of his life, they were...[11]
“ "Promise me, Ned".[12]

Not sure about that, mainly because the silver hair of the targaryens seems to be dominant throughout them. Plus why would Rhaegar forsake tradition/how would he be allowed to forsake tradition and not have children through incest?

Another person that posted above was right about waffle. Martin just does not stop going on about Daenerys in that book and she doesn't even do anything.

Spoilers galore. This is a thread for the TV show. Not everyone has read the books.

The thread for the books is here.

If you want to mention a possible spoiler use the spoiler tags.

Perhaps the only credible thing that can be extracted from this is that genetics does not play a role in the Game of Thrones. Dwarfism is a dominant allele so Tyrion would have to be born of either a dwarf mother or dwarf father, neither of which would happen for a highborn family.

It was just a theory, probably won't even be true so i wouldn't call it a spoiler

but yes thanks for the book link
