Sunrise Nymph Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I tried posting this in another thread yesterday, but got no replies, so I'm testing my luck again here! I just have to ask a quick question - since this is episode 5 and we're offically halfway in the season, I just wonder if anyone has any thoughts on Bran this season? Personally, I think it would be a good move to keep him away the whole season, and maybe a creepy scene with Bloodraven right at the very end - ooor not at all, as it might confuse viewers when he's been gone the entire season… I just think his storyline takes time, it would be badass to suddenly see him having learnt a bit and having become "underground" up beyond the wall. If they want him in this season at all I guess I can't see anywhere he would fit… Has the actor even been on set for this season, anyone know?

Sultan of Westeros Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Might make a little cameo in the last episode (even last scene of last episode) to set things up for season 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am a Dragon Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 There were rumours that Bran will be absent this season but they were casting for CotF before filming began. We'll probably get something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan of Westeros Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 He is largely absent throughout. Being absent doesn't mean he can't make a little appearance in end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunrise Nymph Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 Thank you guys so much for answering! I also had that similar thought with him being the last shot of the last episode this season, that would have been awesome imo. But it seems quite certain that he won't have any arc this season, which I'm also happy with, as I think that would just appear messy. This season's arcs are pretty much laid out now (though it remains to see how they play out). Althought I suppose we never know if they want a final-half arc for someone else.

HodoringHodor Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 There were rumours that Bran will be absent this season but they were casting for CotF before filming began. We'll probably get something. And it was said the actor wouldn't be shooting any scenes this year, which is curious phrasing and leaves an opening for spoken lines having been recorded.

Mandzipop Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I reckon we are more likely to hear him or see a flashback with him from an earlier episode. This would be a good tie in at the Godswood at Winterfell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be a good tie in at the Godswood at Winterfell. it will be interesting to see him call out theon in the godswood. we don't have to see bran but just hear a voice.

God-Emperor of Yi Ti Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 it will be interesting to see him call out theon in the godswood. we don't have to see bran but just hear a voice. yes that would be good. Or possibly they will switch to Sansa... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first I've heard of this, but it has me quite intrigued if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philpenn Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Hate when they say they caught tv Bran up with book Bran last season. They got close for sure, but there's still scenes they could do with him. A couple quick jawns of him would certainly be better than the Grey Worm love story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faceless Man Friday Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I am sorry but I really do not know where they are headed with Grey Worm. I do not see how it moves the story along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw one poster on the board for episode 4 commenting: "and now we will get some semi-sexy scenes of Missandei tending to Grey Worm's wounds" and they were damn right. Such a waste of time, am not invested in that storyline at all and feel like the Unsullied in general have been portrayed incredibly silly on the show. They're the baddest, c'mon.

Aerys Blackfyre Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Might make a little cameo in the last episode (even last scene of last episode) to set things up for season 6. this is what I hope for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
