Bran is stuck in some kind of cycle. Time is a flat circle.

Has Chud not already debunked this? I'll have to dig up the video.

I thought there was only one sand snake left and her mother.

Ok sand snake and Mama snake.

Dany turning her attention to Varys' loyalty really showed her growing insanity. Mad King 2.0: The Queen Remix. Theon... Maybe he'll get one last chance at redemption? I like the Bran is the Night King theory, too. Puts a tragic twist on the entire story. Looks like a dragon will most definitely die. I can see LF try to convince Sansa to overthrow Jon and get his karmic justice. I hope Arya gets to do the deed. Jorah The Explorer will return! Gendry should be returning soon too, I would think? Cersei going into the War swinging, thanks to Euron. I'm looking forward to seeing next week's episode!

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I really hope so. Euron annoys the shit out of me.

When I first started reading this series, there was a sense that every character thread would somehow converge to bring everything to its logical, explosive conclusion. But as the show has unfolded, I'm feeling like some of these characters and stories are less important, and could perhaps have been done away with entirely. If all we get out of Theon and Euron's story is A) Theon is forever a broken man and B) Euron is hungry for power; and then if they fight each other and one or both of them die; wouldn't that be pretty stupid?

I really hate the Euron storyline.

And the books have a lot more tangents and characters, and have not gotten as far as the series.

Yeah, and I'm curious if Euron is more compelling in the books? I stopped after ASOS. But I can't stand his story on the tv show -- it just seems like another diversion from the characters I care about, and he's so over the top. After Ramsey Bolton and Cersei Lannister, Euron doesn't seem especially bad or scary; just like a garden variety bad guy who's got too much screen time.

Euron is cooler in the books. He also has a brother named Victarion. Their relationship is complex, but much more interesting than anything in the show.
