I think that'd be pretty cheap. So far they were an unknown evil like the Reapers were in Mass Effect, and now they are just some screwed up magic of an other race, and obviously humans have to clean up the mess.

TBH I never read up on the WW's origin theories, because I thought they are just the army of the Great Other, and that was enough for me.

Spoiler:
Tbf, I kinda agree that they're better off not having been made by the Children, I'm just saying it's not necessarily an avenue the books aren't also going down.

It's always been hard for me to tell, though, what side everyone's on in the whole Great Other vs Red God, since im of the opinion that every religion is worshipping the same Gods, even if they have different names

Sligh book spoilers too, so carefully Sinious 🙂

Spoiler:
I hope they bring in Cold Hands and Lady Stoneheart. It's a crime to cut them out and putting in bullshit like Gray Worm romance...

Also what do you think of the Kingsmoot Sel? I think leaving out the Dragon Horn and Victarion is pretty shit. Euron pretty much goes against being an iron born.

I get what you are saying, I just never noticed the link between the CotF and the WWs so now I'm trying to save face by saying it's shit 😄

Yeh he is, but he's from a completely different part of Bran's story. To be honest, I think it's just going to be Benjen Stark. He's been brought up too many times recently for it to be an accident, and in the S6 trailer there's a rider wielding some firey bullshit that seems quite convenient for Bran and Meera right now...
Spoiler:
LOL yeah that makes sense. It's rather silly that the WW can't catch them easily though.

Thanks, I'll try to avoid the convo between you and Sel 😄

Whoa whoa, let's hold the door on spoilers, guys.

What do you think the spoiler tags are for?

You missed it. 🙁

I'll preface this by saying I'm not a book purist, I enjoy changes to the show which keep GoT fresh for those who have been fans for over a decade.

I'm alright leaving Victarion out, the show seems too bloated with characters as it is, and if they can condense it all into Euron then more power to them. Same with the Dragon Horn, Euron never won it with blood so as far as I'm concerned the plot line will never come to fruition, so why put it in.

So that simplification I can get on board with. Oversimplification I can't, and that's that happened with the Kingsmoot IMHO. Euron openly admitting to killing Balon? And the Iron Born do nothing? That's not the iron born we know from the books, the show makes them out to be nothing more than uneducated barbarians, and it annoys me.

I'm still hoping for Stoneheart, too.

@Sel

Spoiler:
What I miss about the Dragon Horn is the Iron Born philosophy. Right now Euron is like "I'm gona give ships for Dany to marry me and help her conquer Westeros". That's totally not int line with "We do not sow".
With the horn it would be like "I'm gona take her dragons, force her to be my wife, take her army, and conquer Westeros for myself".

Also the reason I miss Victarion is because he is ****ing cool with his Kraken armor and his charred hand. But I guess they can shift that to Euron. Not sure how important the tension between them will be in the coming books...

So much game of thrones spoilers. Is Sean Bean still around? I doubt it, but I had to ask.

If only... 🙁

Welp. Guess I won't be watching this show...

You won't be able to finish any shows with that mentality.

I finish plenty of shows. I'm just hoping to boycott the entertainment industry for constantly killing off Sean Bean. This is just sad. 🙁

The guy was born to die. Let him enjoy doing his thing.

Sean Bean is my role model
