    Game of Thrones

    Unfortunately one of the dragons was gonna die, almost no matter what. The direwolves started biting it(heheh get it?)within a couple hundred pages of appearing, the dragons have had a pretty good run. (Also there's that pesky other novel by George RR Martin called The Ice Dragon, so pretty...

    Game of Thrones

    Would you release a bunch of thieves, rapists, and murderers from their vows keeping them exiled from society and protecting you from supernatural threats? I'm pretty sure they made the mistake of letting the Nights Watch fall into obscurity because they thought the supernatural threat to the...

    Unless Sam is willing to get the old knife in the heart and a kiss from Beric/Mellisandre, he's still part of the Nights Watch so I doubt he would take a position like that.

    Game of Thrones

    I think George RR Martin doesn't give a damn, you know who wins the Game of Thrones? George RR Martin. He's made Scrooge McDuck levels of money off of this(you know, if he put it in a pool he could swim in it). GRRM has said in interviews that he's fine with the divergence, he knew it was...

    Pellicle Photo Collection

    To add a little more about pellicle formation. I have a nearly 3 year old sour that's been blended, I think 4 times now. It's been in plastic for most of the time(so sue me). I've had times where it's formed a big thick white pellicle, other times it's just the wispy bubbles, other times...

    Game of Thrones

    Actually the two scenes that seal the deal with Jon, the flashback Bran saw as the Three Eyed Raven, and the discussion with Gilly in this last episode, haven't happened in the books, at all. In the books, Bran has only just got to the Three Eyed Raven and started his training. Sam has only...

    Game of Thrones

    Well, that scene and dialogue was only placed there to put to rest wether Jon was a bastard or not. We know of a legal marriage to Elia Martell of Dorne(the one who The Mountain raped and killed during the sack of King's Landing, as well he had two children by this marriage who were also killed...

    Game of Thrones

    To be fair to the people rooting for it. I'd bet a significant amount of money that the majority of them think Jon and Dany are like 2nd/3rd cousins(not that 2nd cousin makes it ok), or, they didn't get the hint *at all* that Jon is a Targ. Also, they're both super good looking so, it's ok.

    Do two sane Targaryen's make one crazy Targaryen? I can't remember my biology class and dominant/recessive genes.

    Game of Thrones

    Yeah, Dany is Jon's Aunt. Rhaegar was Dany and Visery's older brother, they were both at Dragonstone when King's Landing fell to Robert Baratheon.

    Game of Thrones

    Yes, in the show, sorry, I sometimes get caught up in the books vs. the show. I'll be interested how the fire at the Dosh Khaleen is written in the books. There are lots of tiny hints in the books she isn't actually fire proof. I would ask anyone that's saying Targs are fire proof, how and...

    Game of Thrones

    There's hints that it may not necessarily always be true. At the start of the first book Dany recoils from the bath drawn for her because it was too hot. Subtle but, again, probably propaganda. First convince everyone that your family is the only one that can control the proverbial nuclear...

    Game of Thrones

    Yes, but I think the whole, "you need to be a Targaryen to control dragons" is probably mostly myth and propaganda. There's at least a good amount of evidence dragons are as smart or smarter than men, depending on how you look at it, I'm sure if Jon walked up and acted all cocky with a dragon...
