It was have been a slaughter. Margaery was clearly biding her time. Hoping to use Tommen's conversion to get them all out of the mess. She managed to save Olenna at least. I am sure Margaery had a plan to save them all much like Oosha tried against Ramsay. It just didn't work out. Just like with Oosha, you see conniving ugly motivation where it doesn't exist on screen.

Mya Stone June 27, 2016 Author Share June 27, 2016 Stray thoughts: Time is not really linear on GoT. So, whereas I was like WHOA VARYS WTF in the last scene, it took Mr. Stone to remind me that earlier in the episode they were repainting and decorating Dany's newfound ships, so that the last scene was meant to take place some time later. The fact that the maesters didn't know about LC Mormont (RIP) and Aemon (RIP) I think were meant to illustrate that they are really, really out of touch with the present...which, when you're facing an ancient threat, might not be so bad? Maybe? I floved that Sansa apologized to Jon about withholding her information with the Vale army and saying she didn't know why she did it, and declaring she didn't trust LF. Thank. God. Lastly, when Arya kills, she goes completely dead-eyed and emotionless. It happened in the Meryn Trant kill, and it happened again in the Frey kill. It's an interesting acting choice by Maisie. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360148

She knows that there will always be someone questioning her qualifications and credentials to be the face of the North/Starks because of her marital history, so it makes more sense to throw her support behind Jon. She also seems more willing to work behind the scenes and apply a more human touch, rather than make big speeches. She knows that in order to take on the White Walkers, morale in the North needs to be rebuilt to ensure a unified people. Look at how she handled herself in contrast to Cersei during the Battle of Blackwater Bay, comforting the women and leading them in songs and prayer while Cersei drank and planned to kill herself and Tommen. She could be the soft, human side of the Northern leadership and be active in planning for the long winter. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360161
that one guy June 27, 2016 Share June 27, 2016 17 minutes ago, bluvelvet said: I don't know if Jon/Dany marriage is likely since she is his aunt, although she is a Targaryen and family ties never stopped them before but I don't see the benefit in her marrying Jon since the marriage won't help her cement her position in KL I don't think it would help her position in KL, although if his Targ heritage becomes known, a marriage would combine the two claims and make a better case to the Targ Loyalists still out there - although on the show this is basically Mrs Peel and the Sand Snakes, who are inclined to support Dany anyway. But KL, as has been said elsewhere, is in turmoil and would probably welcome Dany if she can bring stability. The Starks know the Night's King is coming, so they aren't interested in lineage or legitimacy. Jon's pretty much going to say "Send 1000 Unsullied to defend the wall and I'll support your claim and be your cabana boy too if that's what it takes" and Sansa's going to say "name me Warden of the North and reaffirm my title to my home." Actually a pretty low bar. But if you need Valyrian blood to control the dragons, a Jon/Dany union makes a lot of sense. The show hasn't gone into it, but Dany's parents were also brother and sister, weren't they? It's not fair to pick on the Lannisters for doing what their liege lords did all the time... Speaking of which, RIP Tommen. You were too naive for this world. With you gone, I guess Jon inherits that title? Boy, the Slate Game of Thrones Graveyard is gonna have a lot of new tombstones this week. 3 Freys, Marge, Mace, Loras, the High Sparrow, Lancel . . . damn, the show made me feel sad about Lancel's death. Hey, there are not even any fake Baratheons left! If Gendry ever stops rowing, Storm's End should be his!

Sure, it doesn't line up entirely and we're past Cersei's plot and Jon took over some of Stannis' purpose, but overall it felt like a proper climax and resolution.

Advance35 June 27, 2016 Share June 27, 2016 Also worth mentioning, I can't remember which poster said it a LONG time ago but they were right about Cersei in the sense that no matter who you are or what it will cost her, whatever you do to her, she ALWAYS does 10 times the damage back at you, even if it hurts her in the process. And even when it's unwitting. Lady Olenna murdered Joffrey and Cersei hit back to the 12th power. It's kind of sad that Olenna meant to save Margery's life by murdering Joffrey, but that led to Tyrions incarceration which led to Tywin's murder, which led to the cage door being opened on Cersei unleashed. And her entire family is dead because of it. Growing Strong No More. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360180

Eyes High June 27, 2016 Share June 27, 2016 (edited) Cersei and Dany had similar costuming in their final scenes: black (or dark grey in Dany's case) with silver shoulder details and a chain-type thing across the front. Dany's was a modified version of her Season 5 gowns, except black with silver detailing on the shoulders instead of white. The black studded fabric on Cersei's gown reminded me of Tywin's leather tunics, and the silver shoulder details reminded me of the metallic armour-like corsets and belts she used to wear. There was nothing Lannister about the colour scheme for Cersei, though. It definitely looks like a showdown between the two queens. I did a double take when I saw Varys standing behind Dany in that shot. What percentage of KL actually burned? Seems like a lot of the city is still standing.

MadMouse June 27, 2016 Share June 27, 2016 Hmm don't know what to think of this episode. First off all hail Daeron third of his name.. Jon KITN. Like others have said it wasn't that clear that Rhaegar was his father or that he's a Targ at all. I'm not doubting it but show only people might not get how huge of a revelation that is. Oh and he is totally going to marry Sansa and Dany. The scene with Sansa on the ramparts could have been a flashback to Ned and Cat. Did anyone notice baby Jon face looked like it got red around his eyes and cheeks? Maybe it was weird lighting or something. Lady Mormont is fantastic, her annoyed with all the bullshit face could strike fear into the Mountain. Hated the way all the Northern Lords kinda just went my bad we're with you now. Looking back to S2 I should have known it was going to be like that but still very disappointing. Really hated the bastard version of the Frey pie we got it was completely unearned with Arya. Speaking of bastard versions of things, fire and blood speech was shit too. Don't know why all the best speeches aren't included in the show. I'm looking at you Varys and the little birds. And before people say it's adaption, I get that but I feel like so much is lost by omiting these things. It's some of Martin's best prose IMO. Old town looked great, We light the way. Was waiting for Marwyn but maybe next year and Sarella too. Gilly looked great and that baby is going to be the size of Dunk by time the series ends. And now we get the Mad Queen, I'll echo everyone else who said her coronation was shot beautifully, it was somber and the fear underlying it was one of the most subtle things they've done. And it worked, remember that guys. Still don't know what to think of Jaime, its probably to late to redeem him at this point so him turning on her won't mean as much now. And on a final note in two episodes with seen the end of four great houses . Umber , Karstark , Bolton and now Tyrrell. So pour one out for Willas and Garlan. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360270

There are many other types of torture besides rape. I assumed the Mountain took off his helmet so she could be terrorized by his face. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360272
Alapaki June 27, 2016 Share June 27, 2016 Cheering as much for Cersei as I was in the scene with Ulenna ought to be cause for introspection, I suppose. But I still loved it.

What happened to the handmaiden who was in the room (was there more than one?) I think that was probably Wylla. There was one scene in the books with Arya and Beric's squire who was from House Dayne and he claimed Jon Snow was his "milk brother" because he believed Jon Snow's mother was Wylla who was also his wet nurse. Wonder what ever happened to her. And where the hell is Howland Reed? He's the only other one I can think of who knows the truth. Maybe it's time for him to crawl out of his swamp? 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360276

It was have been a slaughter. Margaery was clearly biding her time. Hoping to use Tommen's conversion to get them all out of the mess. She managed to save Olenna at least. I am sure Margaery had a plan to save them all much like Oosha tried against Ramsay. It just didn't work out. Just like with Oosha, you see conniving ugly motivation where it doesn't exist on screen. I don't think the majority of people would have fought against the Tyrells and Lannisters once they saw they saw what they were up against (I think more people would have fled), but that wasn't the only opportunity Margaery had to cut ties with the High Sparrow. She other options. By siding with him over her family she was only showing that she had no longterm plan to get rid of the High Sparrow and felt that if you can't beat 'em join 'em. By joining them she was putting a royal stamp of approval to the High Sparrow gaining power where more and more people who break the rules of the Faith are going to be treated the way that she and Loras were. Tommen's conversion did absolutely nothing to help Loras. Same with Margaery's. All it did was get her out of jail and back into pretty clothes. When Tommen was putting on his lion necklace it made me wonder why the High Sparrow never got on Tommen for always wearing his "finery". 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360278

I am actually glad he embraced the position. Frankly, I was getting tired of all the "Jon will refuse and pass it on to his sister' comments everywhere. He is not Jesus Jon who is always supposed to be good and noble. In the books he was ready to accept Winterfell from Stannis and only refused because Stannis asked him to burn the Winterfell Godswoods in return. In ASoS, Jon flat out says that he wants Winterfell, that he's always wanted Winterfell. This was despite knowing that Sansa was still alive. It's only Ghost's red eyes that remind of him of the Weirwoods and his oaths to the NW that makes him refuse Stannis' offer. Now that he is not restricted by either, I am not surprised that he is okay with KITN. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360282

There's only one way Cersei was going to get her revenge. 5 minutes ago, that one guy said: Well, maybe. But based on "The World of Ice and Fire" I believe they hooked up at the Tournament at Harrenhall. Rhaegar was tasked with finding the identity of the mystery knight and killing him by his father the Mad King. Upon discovering it was fiery hot chick Lyanna Stark, Rhaegar, um, disregarded his orders . . . If that was the case they would've ran away after Harrenhall. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/44748-s06e10-the-winds-of-winter/page/4/#findComment-2360291
