Dove Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 WiCnet just retweeted a tweet from Iwan Rheon saying he's doing his Twitter Q&A next Thursday, so I think it's this Sunday's episode when all is revealed, otherwise there wouldn't be much point in asking questions, considering how cagey Iwan's been about interviews.Cool, this gives me hope that we might be getting some kind of development this Sunday. Iwan Rheon's been great so far as GRRM's Biggest Bastard but there's only so far you can stretch the conceit of "109 Different Ways Alfie Allen Can Scream" and have it still be entertaining to most people.It's kind of funny how well Theon works as an audience surrogate during their scene in the most recent episode; he's as confused and tired of this shit as a good portion of the viewers are, and the 'mystery' of Ramsay's identity was discussed in an almost meta way. They're practically turning to the camera and saying "Think about it - got it yet?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
go joff go Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I guess we could get the reveal especially if he sends a part of Theon to Roose, Then it won't seem so much like a betrayal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Man Has Said Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 It's already been revealed by IMDB, which is listing Iwan Rheon as playing Ramsay Snow in the series. Spoilers! ;)BTW, I'm really hating the TV writers and producers for putting so much of this in instead of using that time for staying more true to the story as written. :thumbsdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like answers this week if there's an interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Conch Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 You wouldnt actually have to see it happen.Just have Ramsay pull Theons pants down, move in and put the knife into his crotch area whilst the camera is filming from a distance, no graphic bloody gore but the viewer is left in no doubt that Poor Theon isnt a proper man anymoreI don't have a problem with this. But if he got his manhood flayed first I think that would be gratuitous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick_Scryer Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I wouldn't jump to conclusions about a Ramsay reveal just because Rheon is having a Twitter Q & A. Iwan is also a musician and that tweet doesn't have any mention of GOT in it like any of the previous GOT organised Q & A's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reek the Turncloak Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I don't have a problem with this. But if he got his manhood flayed first I think that would be gratuitousI don't think they'll go that far. They'll be already showing enough gore by making the castration happen on screen and I think Theon's terror and desperation will be enough, especially if Alfie keeps acting so well.

YTDN Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I wouldn't jump to conclusions about a Ramsay reveal just because Rheon is having a Twitter Q & A. Iwan is also a musician and that tweet doesn't have any mention of GOT in it like any of the previous GOT organised Q & A's.Yeah but WiCnet retweeted it, which at least suggests it might by GoT related, and also plotwise they can't hold off the reveal any longer. Each of Theon's scenes have advanced his plot in some way-Ep2: He's reintroduced to the showEp3: 'Boy' helps him escape, then saves his life, earning his trustEp4: Theon confesses his guilt, then is recapturesEp6: 'Boy's' sadistic nature is shown, and the question of his identity is dangled over the viewers.The next logical step is for 'Boy's' identity to be revealed. Theon's only in two more episodes, and I'm assuming one of them will be in Ep10 (there's no way D&D will miss the chance to see Theon's reaction to Robb's death), so Ep7 is the last we'll see of Theon before the finale. Another round of torture withoutany plot advancement would be pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Zemblanity Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I just hope they put the torture off screen for awhile. I don't want to actually see a gelding. I don't think it matters if they reveal him or not. Roose said he would send his Bastard to root Theon out of Winterfell and then last episode he was blowing the horn so.... It's there if you are looking for it... For those who didn't catch that, it probably would be better to hold off on as much of Roose's duplicitousness for as long as possible.

JoePescisBoss Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I hope you're right. Did you see the blade Ramsay had in his hand? It had a big book like thing at the end of it. It looks like it would be good for slicing off balls.Hahaha, you and your fantasies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His trust? ... by killing his own soldiers.Well, what did Theon tell him? That he didnt kill the Stark boys?I dont know, seems illogical, at least for me as I havent read storm of swords.

Tyrion4President Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I remember in the books that the suggestion of 'bastard' always sends Ramsay even more bonkers, but its been awhile so I forget--did Roose ever actually legitimize Him?Tommen does so he can marry "arya" and claim winterfell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bran and Rickon are the heirs to Winterfell if Robb Stark dies. Bran and Rickon being alive means that Bolton can't take Winterfell by marrying Sansa or Arya. That piece of information was worth 50 soldiers, but... I think Ramsay is just a sick son of a bitch and likes to kill people without giving it a second thought. 4 or 5 soldiers are play things in his twisted game with his Reek.
