I want him recast by Vinnie Jones.

I hope the show continues to troll my immersion, perhaps they'll have Dolorous Edd tell one of his men to pop to Dragonstone to borrow some Dragonglass from the Red Keep then in the next scene have him return to the Wall and make it clear he was gone about three hours at most.

Idk about a video but here's my recap: Stark kids are now superfriends and back in control of Winterfell after killing Ramsey and Littlefinger. Jon and Dany are banging. Euron wants to bang Cersei and is in her service. Night's King has a zombie dragon and just melted the wall. Dorne and Highgarden are supporting Dany. Dunno what's going on with the Vale and the Riverlands are hosed. Wildlings are in charge of The Gift (the lands just south of The Wall)

I think that's everything

Highgarden got hosed by the Lannisters, and House Tyrell was literally wiped off the map as a result so I'm pretty sure they're not in play anymore. Dorne is currently leaderless after Ellaria was captured by Euron; she's still being held prisoner in King's Landing. Maybe Dorne still pledged to Dany, no idea. The Vale is probably still pledged to House Stark even after Littlefinger got ghosted because gently caress Littlefinger.

[edit] In addition, Euron hosed off overseas to go hire the Golden Company to fight for Cersei after the bulk of the Lannister forces were decimated by the Dothraki and Drogon. Everyone else is pretty much converging at Winterfell: Jaime's currently headed north after Cersei told him to gently caress off, likely to help hold Winterfell against the dead. Guess Brienne, Pod, and maybe Bronn will be there too. Jon and Dany are currently sailing towards White Harbor with the Unsullied, to later meet up with the Dothraki at Winterfell.

He didn't just capture Ellaria, he destroyed their fleets. Dorne is basically out of the game.

That wasn't the Dornish fleet, that was the Iron Fleet loyal to Yara that got destroyed by Euron. Only Ellaria and the sand snakes travelled to Dragonstone; they then hitched a ride back with Yara and Theon.

[edit] Although, the plan was to use Yara's ships to transport the Dornish forces. So while I'm pretty sure Dornish forces are still intact, they don't have a quick way to get to King's Landing at the moment.

It just occurred to me how lovely it is that they didn't even try to negotiate for the release of Ellaria when they went to talk to Cersei. Their ally is being tortured in Cersei's dungeon as they speak, and no one even mentions her.

Yeah, you would think they would at least ask about her.

Also, the Sand Snakes are all bastards, so there is no way Ellaria is the official ruler of Dorne. Surely, the actual ruler is some noble lord, who was simply allied with the Sand Snakes, and who would still support Dany's claim?

Nothing about the Dorne plotline makes any sense, really.

Varys did report they were either dead or captured, but he also has to still have had some spies in King's Landing who would have seen Ellaria and her daughter were alive when they were brought in by Euron and paraded through the streets.

Bastards are treated differently in Dorne.

The first thing that happened during the meeting was Euron goading Theon about another much less important hostage, that would have shown it was pointless to discuss it. Plus Dany had roasted the last major hostage she captured so it probably wouldn't have been prudent to start talking about releasing POWs.

Well, that's what you're always going to get at the end of a long series that people have had time to pick over for years and years. If you've done your plotting and foreshadowing right, then everything in the last few episodes SHOULD be predictable because it's echoing everything that came before. And to be honest, I'm not sure what I'm expecting the ending to look like. There'll be some big battles with the Others and Cersei's expected backstabbing, but I wouldn't care to bet on who lives or who dies, or how the Night King is defeated or bargained with, or how they'll deal with the ice dragon. Or what the status quo will look like after all's said and done.
