HBO's "Game of Thrones"

[twoffo]

Arya kills Cersei. Arya lives. She disentangles herself to find her own fate, which is left to mystery

I’m not sure she kills Cersei, maybe has a key role, but I do believe she survives like you mentioned.

Tyrion and Varys survive and remain advisors to Queen Daenerys.

Varys is toast. I believe he is troubled by the priestesses of the Lord of Light for good reason.

Edmure Tully, in the end, stay Lord of Riverrun.

HBO has plans for spinoffs

All of which are prequels, so that has nothing to do with who dies or survives this story...Unless you mean that HBO has too much invested in future projects to piss off the majority of fans too much...I agree, I am one of them.

unless Tyrion and Jamie die along with Cersei. Then he has nothing.

That would be just his luck.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He didn't want the gold, he want a castle and to be a Lord. He didn't bet on Jaime ditching Cersei and thought Jaime was his lottery ticket. Now he is fed up and wants the easiest path to his goal.

Bronns likability has made people think he is something he's not....a good guy.

Exactly...although I do think he has a soft spot for the boys...just not that big of a soft spot.

that's probably his fate

On a side note because I don't remember. Did anyone take over the Walder Frey lands after his demise?

Edmure *should* still be alive.

I'd like to see the eventual land distribution of Last Hearth, Karhold, Dreadfort, The Twins, and all the other lands that are lordless. Will they give them to the brave survivors of the Long War?

I think it's too obvious that Arya kills Cersei, so that's probably not what happens. Jamie, Tyrion, or Bronn maybe? Dany and Jon aren't going to be able to be happily ever after. One or both has to go. I feel like Sansa is going to have Dany killed, and that Jon will begrudgingly take the throne. They'll do it in a way that Jon and Sansa can be on good terms. Jon's secret is going to get out, and Dany will feel like she has to kill him to preserve her claim, but Sansa/Arya will be ready for that move.

I thought saying - growling - "Dracarys" was even better. For once, D&D wrote something that made the arm hairs rise. She told Dany to burn it down!

For all those going on about the birth of the Mad Queen, there's a difference between rage and insanity. I don't know that Dany is insane. Snarling while walking away is hardly an act of insanity. We'll just have to see what she does next week (purportedly the battle to end all battles.) Or even more, maybe what she starts to do, and then backs off. To be continued!

She's definitely not gone off the deep end, yet. I am hopeful that she will not. If Jon and Greyworm die, though, it is going to be hard for her to keep it together.

Bronn is kind of a dark horse to off Cersei since he was offered a better deal depending on who wins.

Jaime dies.
Arya kills Cersei. Arya lives. She disentangles herself to find her own fate, which is left to mystery.
The Hound kills The Mountain and dies from his own mortal wounds.
Drogon dies defending Daenerys.
If Daenerys doesn't die, she is humbled. Dragonless, she takes the throne in Kings Landing, receives the fealty of some, but accepts alliance with Sansa, who becomes Queen of the North.
If Jon doesn't die, he is weary of the game he never wanted to play. Having seen a peace which mostly satisfies the players, he goes north of the wall to live among the wildlings and find some personal peace.
Tyrion and Varys survive and remain advisors to Queen Daenerys.
Bronn has no remaining friends and departs with the surviving members of the Golden Company.
Euron Greyjoy dies. He's either burned to death by Drogon, killed by Jaime, or killed by Yara.
Qyburn dies. Horribly, I suspect.
Grey Worm dies, or he lives and leaves for Naath with a handful of Unsullied after Daenerys takes the throne.
Brienne remains in the north to serve Sansa.
Gendry lives and takes up the lordship of the Baratheon's castle home and lands.
Samwell takes up the lordship of his families seat.
Podrick remains in the north and swears fealty to Sansa.
The fates of some other characters may be left unstated - Septa, Ellaria...

I like a lot of these and agree with many. I do think The Hound will have to somehow get past his fire phobia to defeat Clegane or maybe he will run through fire to save Arya, but I don't think that fire is done with Sandor yet. I do think we will have at least two kings or queens and maybe 7.

I really feel like Varys and Tyrion's conversation is some foreshadow. That wasn't part of another scene, they gave them their own conversation of treason in the Dragonstone throne room.

My probably wrong prediction: Tyrion realizes Dany is going the Mad King route and kills her himself similar to his brother Jaime earning the name Kingslayer.

I hope something causes the Mountain to turn on Cersei and strangle her.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Maybe Sandor can land a death blow on him causing him to fall on her, and squish her like the wicked witch of the west...that would be awesome to see her stupid legs sticking out from under that monstrosity.

Yup, that works for me, too.

She is my most hated non-historical character ever.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I reaallly hope if there even is an Iron Throne after all this that Jon is sitting on it. Certs's dumb "When you play the Game of Thrones..you win..or you die" quote would turn out to be garbage. Jon would win, and he never even played the game.

Missandei is hotter, tho.

Very true, but Rhaegal spoke to my inner nerd.

It kinda hit ya in the same feelz as when ol Yeller died.

 

[Weezer]

In the trailer, Euron seemed to see something that surprised him.

Just a guess, but I'm thinking Yara's new fleet.

Watched a nice YT conspiracy video. The Iron Bank may still be relevant, Cersei paid them off in full...but it also removed any reason for them to assist her or back her.

To sum up the 12 min video, when Cersei owed the Iron Bank 10 million gold her death would essentially mean they lost all that gold. Now she has repaid them (and likely won’t borrow more from them) they will perhaps fund another force so they can have an alliance on firm ground with whomever rules Westeros...

Maybe Dorne who aids Dany has borrowed funds for revenge on Cersei.

I thought after she repaid the original loan, she took out another one to pay for the Golden Company?

I don't know about a second loan, but isn't that the main reason she attacked House Tyrell? For their gold to pay back debit. This may have already been covered, apologies if so.
