Yes, dogs and wolves can mate, and I bet Martin knows this. Doesn't the wolf preservation project he's enagaged in have hybrids? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Stark Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Dothrakiville. I love it. We don't know if Rickon dies in the books. I've always thought he wouldn't die, and that the 'shaggydog' story idea people have was so stupid and juvenile GRRM would never do it...but I could be wrong. Just as it looks very much like I'm wrong that Jon Snow isn't going to die in the books.... It isn't even a rant and rave joke that Littlefinger could tell Jon about his parentage, it's a serious, serious possibility. We already had him given the Rhaegar Lyanna back story and we know he's going to be up North, saving everyone's ass. Very possible. Who needs Howland Reed? LOL.

Gabriele Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 They may even cast him with a good actor and waste the actor's potential on some silly lines, and still give the important bits of his storyline to Pinky the Perv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's out of the realms of possibility that Jon doesn't die in the books but dies on GoT. Really. As long as he ends up doing the same plot relevant thing, it's all the same. In fact, wanting to kill Jon off and have him go through a res-erection by the power of Mel's bewbs may be part of the reason LSH was dropped. As to Little fucking Finger making the big reveal, why the hell not? It was already made pretty obvious by the look he gave Sansa when she said Rhaegar 'kidnapped and raped' Lyanna that he knows the truth, or part of it. Oh boy, this is gonna suck so hard.

For the books, I'm in the 'Jon doesn't die camp'. As for the show, of course he dies because Shock and what you listed above. Plus, his death is really bloody so WE KNOW HE'S DEAD! The audience needs to see Mels boobs again and the res-erection happens, thanks to those boobs. LH has his jetpack warmed up and ready to fly to the Wall, to spill the R+L=J beans. Of course he does.

Cas Stark Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I should have known, given their taste, that Dan and Dave would be among those who are Littlefinger fans, who for unfathomable reasons are among those few who see him as some kind of a harbinger of a meritocracy in Westeros, instead of the worthless POS he is, even Cersei who I hate like poison deceives herself on occasion that she has noble motives, LF never even fakes it to himself, he is straight up out for himself at all times....so, sure, why not have LF do the reveal? I guess we will get a better sense depending on how the TOJ is handled and if Young Reed is given a juicy role there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissdbyfire Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 My prediction is ToJ will be very poorly handled. And at this point I don't even care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyBazooka Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 They admire him. He was once a nerd who came from nothing, never got the girl, and now he's rich, powerful and famous, and about to get the girl. They relate to him too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean Hagrid Reed? (Personally I think it is a good nickname. In the books Jojen and Meera are interested in scary animals while the rest of the people are scared of them. ("They won't bite if I'm there." Bran was pleased that they wanted to see the wolves. "Summer won't anyway, and he'll keep Shaggydog away."). Bran is also a little like that (oh, baby wolves, "I'm tired of talking about crows. Let's talk about wolves. Or lizard-lions. Have you ever hunted one, Meera? We don't have them here." Lizard-lions are awesome, ... ) I probably should not hope for Hagrid Reed on a lizard-lion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Cygne Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 My guess is Jon doesn't actually die in the books, either. And it does seem like they would reuse the LSH method for Mel res-erecting Jon. Or hey, Littlefinger. As for Pinky, interesting that he's in the know about Lyanna and Rhaegar, but didn't bother to ask a passer by what they know about the infamous Bolton son.

Stannis is the man....nis Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 An this is where I really get pissed. As any person who read the books they are perfectly entitled to not like Stannis but to in turn hate his character and in turn like LF and give him all these awesome moments is infuriating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlefinger only knows what the plot needs him to know, or not know. Same thing with Littlefinger being smart or stupid as a bag of hammers, depending on what the plot demands.

Le Cygne Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 And of course, it's the wrong sister. I hope they play any sister thing down. (What is this strange thing called hope? This is Game of Thrones.) But seriously, that's a huge loss to the story, that it's not Arya. It's like when they said Sansa and Theon reunite, and like, uh, they were never united in the first place. Nor were these two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meera of Tarth Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 5 hours ago, Tijgy said: I think the math is based on the books and the reason why they say this is because Tyrion has the most connections with everyone. He has been at the Wall, he met Robb and Bran in WF, he met Cat in the RL, he was in the vale, he fought against Roose on the battle of the Green Fork, he has been in King's Landing, he knows Renly and Stannis, he is a bond with Varys, he met Illyrio, he met fAegon and JonCon, he met Jorah and is now near Meereen. But yeah, the same method would actually prove that (certainly) Dany, Jon and Bran are completely not important people while they are most of the time seen as the ones who will have a hand in saving the 7K from the zombies. Bran has only 7 chapters in the last books but that does not mean he is not important (you have of course his presence in some later chapters of Theon, ...) Nevertheless, D&D see Tyrion as the most important character, he is the Saint (who goes to help with Varys the poor - and not Dany of course) and everything has to change to make us see how awesome he is. While I personally am less impressed with Dinklage these last seasons, I am convinced Dinklage would be able to do the real Tyrion and still make us love him and dislike his actions. But no, instead we have Tyrion who makes constantly cock jokes (who the hell invented the cock merchant?) and who uses his brawls instead of his brain (yeah, let's hit the slaver) totally agree Dinklage level is much higher than cock merchant jokes, the same is valid for the average audience.... bad pussy and cocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Cygne Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 So Kit saying he's really dead is actually a spoiler. Why would he be spoiling it? He could just say, stay tuned. http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2016-04-02/heres-everything-kit-harington-told-jonathan-ross-about-jon-snow-game-of-thrones-and-the-real-royal-family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
