PW?

 

Purple Wedding - Joffrey

[Bronn]

My predictions:

Yara's scene comes after Balon has a fall... Basically she's taking command of the Ironborn until there can be a Kingsmoot...

 

Sam and Gilly make it back to Castle Black, after running into Bran and Co. and scaring the living poo out of them... Sam gets them through the Black Gate... I dunno if Coldhands comes into play this season. He might be like Jojen and Meera, and introduced a little later on that in the books. I also think Sam and Gilly arrive BEFORE the assault on the wall... which is a difference from the books... and just in time for Jon to get back too... I even think we'll see the wildling masses approaching, although not the battle itself... except maybe an initial assault featuring Ygritte and her demise...

 

Theon's scene is pretty much continued torture, and I think Ramsay will fill him in on the RW, causing further internal conflict in his mind...

 

Sansa/Tyrion/Cersei/Joffrey/Tywin will be pretty much quiet I think... other than news from the RW reaching KL and wedding planning of their own...

Jaime makes it to KL The preview seems to indicate this... I think his appearance will be brief, though... They will possibly play out the scene between Loras and Brienne, and have Jamie intervene... sending Brienne to the dungeons...

 

We'll probably get some dialogue between the Hound and Arya, and they'll build the relationship between them a bit... They'll decide on heading towards the Eyrie...

 

I think Stannis will agree with Mel to sacrifice Gendry, but Davos will intervene and either advise against it, and eventually smuggle Gendry out of harm's way...

 

We'll probably get brief glimpses of Varys, LF, and Pycelle...

 

I think the final scene will be Beric, Thoros, and Co. finding Cat's body, and bringing her back via Beric's sacrifice... Her eyes open and she takes a hissy breath/roll to credits...

 

I think that pretty much covers and ties up most people's story lines for this season...

FWIW, it would be a nice and welcomed surprise to see the PW make it onto screen this season... But there are some characters present at that that haven't even been cast yet (to our knowledge)...

[nickzz]

that was a pretty intense episode, especially considering the fact that it wasn't the finale.

 

so, without any spoilers, how epic/intense/crazy/whatever will this finale be? my guess is the whitewalkers do some big things, as they were introduced in the finale last season and haven't done poo this season.

 

the last 2 finales haven't really been the climaxes of their respective seasons, but more of a cliffhanger/surprising revelation to keep viewers hooked and excited for next season.

A couple of epic things might go down - but the spoiler tag consensus kind of leans on the 'wait til next year' so we can build the rest of book 3 (for season 4).

 

It's really hard to not spoil predictions for ep 10 and beyond unfortunately =/, so I wouldn't click any of them.

Why do I get the feeling that the only survivor at the end of the books will be Westeros?

If you pay attention episode 9 is always the climax and episode 10 is set up. They've done it every season

Just read this and it made me laugh so have to post it.  Also bolded my favorites from his list.

Game of Thrones...you mean, sick, sadistic SOB. There haven't been this many violent deaths in a book since the Bible, by God. What happened during the Red Wedding is the equivalent of the Cowardly Lion dying of cancer just as he's about to meet Oz, or Charlie Buckett getting sucked up by the bubble fan while Grandpa Joe dies of a heart attack watching his grandson ripped to shreds in a dark London chocolate factory. Where will this end? Is anyone safe? At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if the dragons all die of upper respiratory infections or if Jon Snow caught syphilis from that wild one he was schtupping in the Goonies cave. Nothing is sacred. No one is safe.

 

Now look. I am all for some surprises. All too often in fiction, everything is predictable and derivative. But killing Ned Stark in Season 1 checked that box for me. Burning down his home town certainly fulfilled any sort of yearning I was still having for sick and unexpected acts of horror. But killing a pregnant woman by stabbing her in the stomach while her husband watches, who then gets shot and stabbed while his mother watches, who then gets shot and stabbed while a wolf howls, who's then stabbed to death while the family's little sister, who just arrived after months of witnessing monstrosities of the highest level, sits back and watches in the comforting arms of a first-class serial killer?

 

Touche, you sick, sick puppy. Touche.

 

As I sit in my own puddle of tears, now a week old, in anticipation of the Season 3 finale, I don't know how much more I can take. I love an ulcer as much as the next person, but at what point do I just throw in the towel and say, "you know what? I don't want to support the annihilation of the Stark family." So, here is what I am looking for in the finale this Sunday to make it up to me.

 

1. The Red Wedding was a dream sequence brought on by too much wine. When they all wake up, everyone has coffee and eggs in their bed-and-breakfast suites.

 

2. Joffrey is thrown into the kingdom's first large saltwater tank, which happens to house both crocodiles and Great White sharks.

 

3. The Lannisters, with the exception of Tyrion, are all taken to the top of their castle and beheaded one by one, and the heads are used in a Haunted Mansion-style attraction they build in the dungeon.

 

4. Daenerys Targaryen finally makes love to Fabio, has a child which is also a dragon, names it Falcor and it grows up to do great things with a boy named Atreyu.

 

5. Fire Crotch and Stannis Baratheon give their beautiful fire demon son a proper bar mitzvah and invite the whole kingdom. The one true God stays home and sulks.

 

6. The White Walkers all start a foundation to prevent global warming.

 

7. Jon Snow becomes a motivational speaker for victims of Stockholm Syndrome.

 

8. Tyrion Lannister runs off with Shae and the two of them open an off-Broadway show based on The Joys of Sex books.

 

9. Twenty-five pivotal new characters are introduced at the end of the finale without any explanation.

 

10. The opening credits' map of the realm expands into more urban territories like Detroit and Camden.

 

If, and only if, HBO agrees to these demands, I will happily continue to watch Game of Thrones next season. And if they don't...I will still watch the next season three times in a row...but only in protest...and under great duress.
