Sweet. Hopefully the telltale game will be good enough to hold me over till the new season starts.

New trailer today! SQUEE!

Ooh baby oh baby oh baby oooh...

Brothers and sisters, it's nearly time!

First 2 episodes this season were kinda meh, but episode 3 kicked it back into gear. It looks like next week will have a bunch of action from the preview.

I refrained from watching the first 4 episodes that leaked online because I didn't want to wait a whole month to see a new episode, and I'm glad I did, the wait would be awful.



***SPOILERS***
It's great to see John snow and sansa back in the saddle, and arya as well for the most part. My favorite part of the episode was seeing glimpses of Ned in John snow as he carried out the execution just like Ned did in the first episode.

I also really liked "the north remembers" which makes me really happy and excited that we'll provably get to see Sansa exact vengeance on the Bolton's and that there one more will be a Stark in winterfell.

Also, Tommen is the man Lol
"It's all I want to do, all day, every day, for the rest of my life" haha, had me laughing out loud.

Funny memes in regards to this week's episode:

Don't worry, no real spoilers here if you haven't seen the episode:

In all seriousness though, this picture is definitely worth a thousand words



There's so much here in this scene! The tragedy, the remorse, the guilt, the rage, the sadness, all the old feels coming back...I can't freaking wait to see how this story-line progresses. There's a reckoning coming, and I'm thinking there might be a redemption story here for ol' Theon (ish).

Also, I'm so disappointed with the sand snakes (Oberyn Martel's avengers). They absolutely suck at acting, they have an annoying screen presence, and I didn't care for them at all. Totally counter-productive. I think the audience should feel torn. Jamie is like that tragic flawed hero that you want to see succeed and be redeemed but you also should want vengeance on the lannisters and the mountain for what they did to Oberyn Martell. That scene where they seize his "niece" looked like a circus.

Speculation/Discussion/Potential Spoilers Maybe? Please don't post actual spoilers if you've read the books and know what's coming

->Open Spoiler<-

I think Theon's sins will catch up with him and that he will pay the ultimate price, but I think he will give his life trying to earn Sansa's forgiveness before the end by killing Roose Bolton (both for his sake and for Sansa's).

As for the events at King's Landing, that scene between Littlefinger and Cersei tells all. Petyr was basically telling her he knows about her and Jamie and that Tommen isn't a Baratheon. I'd wager that he's going to inform the Faith Militant about her incestuous relationship with Jamie and they are going to seize her as well. I don't know what that will mean for Tommen? He's going to have to make some serious choices, and with all of his mentors/advisors out of the way, what will he decide? If Littlefinger is still around, maybe he will sort of insert himself into the situation?

Aww snap, another new trailer for season 6. I liked how Sansa is all decked out in Stark gear - I hope she takes up the mantle and wins back the north from the Boltons.

I also find it interesting how a couple seasons ago, everyone hated the Lannisters (mostly due to Joffrey) and now they've been developed in such a way that you want to see Cercei, Tommen, and Jamie kick some ass. Zombie mountain is gonna be a force to be reckoned with as well.

Only 2 more weeks...

stark gear ?
