Are the zombies in the book semi-sentient? Like the two that get brought to Castle Black bee-line towards Mormont, is that happy coincidence because the watch is incompetent, some mind control poo poo, or -and this is where I'm leaning- do they want to be cool mr zombie around town that killed the important guy and are trying to be the best zombie they can be.

If he can't write it, someone else will summarize.

Like it's not even a thing. The idea that he even considered a deadline is laughable.

BTW Jojen was not on his list of dead on show alive in book.

It would be cool if he just put in the timeskip somewhere in the middle of WoW. I'm sure the show could come with all sorts of fun ways to bridge the gap.

What if we have to wait 4 more years for Winds?

This is dumb, it's already been as long as ADWD took to write since ADWD came out. What you are saying is more akin to people thinking he'd beat the show to the ending. If he took another 4 years for one book nobody would even remember to care. Might be his game plan.

Not to mention, didn't Elyria fear Myrcella and Trystane might kiss at some point which would have likely also killed Trystane?

No that wasn't in the script, he wasn't in danger.

Ahaha gently caress this show. Welcome season 6, loving nothing happened.

The best part is I started watching it all optimistic, and didn't make it out of the previews without being reminded how dumb it is. Horrible Bow Woman (Why is she holding someone up from four feet away with a bow?) dies because she fell like 15 feet, but Theon and Sansa make a 40 foot drop just fine? Okay sure.

But really, nothingggggg.

Theon is going back to Pyke to kill his father.

Welp.

He seriously should have said *something* about paying back the dude who hosed his life sideways. Like in a show that is this dumb, it is dumb to leave that unstated. "I don't want to imprison myself to your brothers cult, I've got a prick to kill."

Also I would never complain about this show again if one of the dragons just straight barbecued Tyrion.

Well that would be some pretty weird aging since Howland Reed would be like 40 and the High Sparrow looks to be, uh, much older than 40

Yeah that was lame, like every other part of the flashback.

Then again maybe it still works because Ned couldn't have been more than 13 and he ages into full Sean Bean.

Beric did kiss Cat and pass on. She actually killed all the Freys already and that is why none are a part of Bolton's good men. This stuff just happens offscreen, or didn't you notice Tywin writing all those letters being like 'wtf she's a zombie???'

I was disappointed that Ramsay ate the 2nd apple he started carving. He didn't eat the first, which was the most interesting thing he has done in years. Like, I was wondering if he just likes to peel apples because of the sound his knife makes.

Also Sansa/Theon end up with Stannis and there's a big to do about interrogating Theon, so that is how he or Asha would know about Mance.

Wait what the gently caress, Stannis already knows about Mance straight up. Who cares if he is alive.
