Dina of Oldstones Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 My lovely mother's favourite part of GoT is the map in the opening credits; she loves those individual sigils for the actors and seeing new locations pop up (she hasn't read the books). She texted me OMFGGGGSONFSOIGNSOIGNSDS-ing when the snake coiled up the turret in Sunspear in S5... Do you think we'll have any new locations added? I was thinking Iron Islands, due to Euron and Kingsmoot and everything- but I couldn't remember if Pyke been included in the map before? Maybe 'Beyond the Wall?' for Bran?

A Bong of Ice and Fire Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Volantis wasn't shown on the opening credits in season 5, even though Tyrion, Varys, and Jorah were there. According to rumors there will be some scenes with Yara Greyjoy in Volantis in season 6, so hopefully we'll get to see Volantis in the opening credits. It would be cool to see the Long Bridge of Volantis in the credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettes Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 pyke was in the map in season 2 as well as riverrun in season 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefae Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Maybe Oldtown will appear. Or where Rickon is ( Skagos or High Heart). I think Pyke and Riverrun will return in the credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arthur Smith Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Only Old Town. Like many people said, Pyke and Riverrun will return. 5 hours ago, Lady Lemoncakes said: Or where Rickon is ( Skagos or High Heart). In the show, Rickon is in Last Hearth.

I was surprised that they didn't ever go north of Castle Black/the Wall in past seasons even when we had important scenes at places that could have been cool to depict on the map like the Fist of the First Men or Craster's Keep or Hardhome. I can maybe see them suddenly showing a location in the far north if a place like the Lands of Always Winter/stronghold of the White Walkers is introduced as a key location as the plot moves forward, but I doubt it. I like the idea of Oldtown/the Citadel. Maybe the Tower of Joy or Highgarden if any of the Tyrells continue be part of the story after returning home. I'd really like to see how they'd do Casterly Rock but can't think of why anyone would be going there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Smith Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Hoping for Oldtown, but I don't think there's likely to be anywhere else new, unless D&D threw us a huge curve ball and we end up at Highgarden or Casterly Rock. Maybe Horn Hill? We know we're meeting Sam's folks at some point. As has been said, Riverrun and Pyke should make a return, which I'm looking forward to.

Mistress of Lemon Cakes Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I think Oldtown for sure. Horn Hill seems likely as well depending on how many episodes Sam spends there. And then yeah, probably Pyke and Riverrun and I'd imagine Vaes Dothrak will show back up as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about Vaes Dothrak. I think we might find they skip it though; for any given episode (or at least the first few), they'll probably have to cover King's Landing, Winterfell, the Wall, Braavos and Mereen, with Dorne or Pyke thrown in occasionally. Kind of feel like that leaves them without any room (unless I'm mistaken, they've never had more than 6 locations for one opening credit sequence).

Dina of Oldstones Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 So potentially... Vaes Dothrak Dorne/Sunspear Oldtown/The Citadel Volantis Beyond the Wall/Lands of Always Winter How exciting. 14 days and we shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Arthur Smith Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 To count how many locations we are going to have: Winterfell King's Landing Mereen The Wall Braavos Pyke Riverrun Vaes Dothrak Old Town Beyond the Wall Too many. Though there will be some locations that will pop up or drop later in the season (such as Dorne showing up few episodes later in S5). Braavos will drop when Arya leave for Westeros. Pyke will show in the episode with Euron and the Kingsmoot, and later drop when they leave to raid Old Town. Riverrun will show when Brienne and Jaime reunite at Riverlands. Same reason for Sam and Old Town. I doubt they will show Dorne considering the plot no longer center in that location anymore. Kinda ambivalent with Vaes Dothrak and Beyond the Wall showing however.

pettes Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 it's only KL, WF and the wall that is always present and the others are there when that place is in the episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistress of Lemon Cakes Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Lol I can totally see them calling Oldtown "The Citadel" considering what happened with Sunspear. I imagine Vaes Dothrak will be back. They already have the animation and one of the main characters will be there. I see no reason not to include it. I'd also be really surprised if anything beyond the wall was added to the opening credits. Pleasantly surprised, mind you, but they haven't done it once in five seasons.

KINGpanther Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 There is not gonna be a Beyond the Wall or Lands of Always Winter on the map. The Wall and everything North of it are represented by Castle Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't get beyond the wall, we never got it in Season 2 or 3, and we don't need to really. Mereen, the Wall, Winterfell, King's Landing and maybe Braavos will have to be there every episode (at least for most of the season, Braavos or Mereen may eventually be vacated by characters), and we'll get the occasional Pyke, Riverrun, and maybe Old Town or Horn Hill intermittently.

MercyTheBlindUglyLittleCat Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Volantis and Oldtown are the only "new" locations I expect to see. Old ones returning will I guess be Riverrun, Pyke, The Dothraki Sea, Dorne, Meeren, Braavos, Castle Black, King's Landing, Winterfell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaginepageant Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Judging by a shot of Davos in the new trailer, we might get to see Bear Island... maybe that's where Rickon ended up? One of the Mormont ladies was in Robb's original circle, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
