Robb_Warged Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 IIRC the heads of the show loved Robb's actor and gave him more material than originally planned due to how good of a job he was doing. (spoiler for a scene in A Storm of Swords that was not adapted into the show and has not been followed up on in AFFC/ADWD) In A Storm of Swords, Robb and Cat have an argument over Robb deciding to name Jon his heir, should anything happen to him. If this becomes an important plot element later on, I wonder if this scene from the book could make it into the show as a flashback to set up whatever the plot decides to do with Robb's will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himashaa Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 God, i hope so. That was one of my favorite robb/cat scenes in the book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midi Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 That would be a really good flashback and might be very useful in terms of advancing the northern storyline. Maybe Bran can see it through the weirwood.net I approve of this flashback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Green Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Exceedingly unlikely. There's no room for that scene within the arc of "The Rains of Castamere", and the writes removed the whole context in which that decision was taken.

Jack Bauer 24 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Wouldn't they have to pay him again for another scene? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctid1977 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 They would indeed. They did it with Jason Momoa though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oierem Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I doubt they will start using regular flashbacks now. There will probably be one flashback for Cersei as the pre-credits scene in episode 1, and maybe some visions from Bran, but otherwise the show won't contain flashbacks.

Lady Fevre Dream Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 This is a terrific idea for a flashback, but I do doubt they would do this. Honestly, though, this reminds me that there should be someway to fit in Robb's will, minus the missing scene. Since The Blackfish never made it back from the bathroom during the RW (and was said to have managed to escape, LOL), perhaps the show will have him turn up, will in hand? I want MY BLACKFISH, DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!! :tantrum: Why cast such a terrific actor and use him even less than Mance? I would also like the will, as well.........that would lead me to suspect that we would get some Jaime and Blackfish. I do wonder what flashbacks beside Cersei and Maggy the Frog the show will use, perhaps something to do with Jon, or Rhaegar or Lyanna, or Ned praying about such a thing? I remember how the quote about flashbacks made it seem that there will be more than one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Fevre Dream Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 They would indeed. They did it with Jason Momoa though. Do it again, do it again, do it again. I mean use Jason Momoa and Drogo. ~le swoon~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janicia Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Robb's will is probably one of those things that gets completely overtaken by events in the book. Robb's will probably did inspire some of Robb's bannermen to scheme to make Jon the king in the north, but Jon's stabbing, the (probably maurading) wildlings, Stannis, and the coming zombie apocalypse are going to tear their plan to shreds. So the show skips the whole dead end and jumps to whatever plan B becomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsGreyjoy Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I love this idea. I'm not a huge fan of flashbacks in general, but I can see this serving a purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beric175 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Jut like having Michelle Fairley for just a single scene in season 4 was never going to fly, I don't think they'd get Richard Madden just for one flashback scene. And whose flashback would that even be? All of Robb's men got slaughtered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aFeastForDragons Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I hope they bring Viserys back. His scene with Dany in the dothraki sea is one of my favourite in the books. I did wait. For my crown, for my throne, for you. All those years, and all I ever got was a pot of molten gold. Why did they give the dragon’s eggs to you? They should have been mine. If I’d had a dragon, I would have taught the world the meaning of those words. Chilling!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLittleFinger Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I don't think Robb is coming back, he has nothing to do nor any significance going forward. The flashback sounds more like either the Tower of Joy, Maggie's Prophecy or something entirely unrelated via Bran (similar to when he had the vision of his mom pushing him out of the tree in S3 as an alternate take on the many dreams he has about Jaime shoving him out the window).

Denam_Pavel Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Bran, Dany and Cersei may have flashbacks. Maybe even Jon, Jaime and Tyrion. Blackfish is rather less likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tyrion I Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Bran, Dany and Cersei may have flashbacks. Maybe even Jon, Jaime and Tyrion. Blackfish is rather less likely. My thoughts exactly. Cersei definitely. Because Maggy the Frog is confirmed as cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
