Then I read a bunch of comments telling that guy that he was a moron because targaryens only survive fire, not ice flames. So I'm glad I didn't think of that. Way back in Season 1 when the first wight is brought into Castle Black, Jon burns his hand on a hot lantern that he throws at the wight while fighting it in Mormont's chambers. They even show him later in the episode with the hand bandaged from the burn. He just doesn't have the same fire resistance that Dany does. And this isn't a D&D plot hole.....a book reader friend of mine says that GRRM details Jon's burned hand after that encounter in the books. So I guess only certain Targaryens are fire resistant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianaJet Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I'm sticking with my theory that Jamie goes back to Cersei, Cersei wins and has her baby who turns out to be dwarf which would be the biggest karma kick in the vag to her. Either she dies during childbirth like her mother and Jamie takes the crown...or, she tries to kill the dwarfen baby after it is born, Jamie catches her in the act, kills her for trying to kill his son and then takes the crown.

Can he be King? I thought the Kingsguard gave up pretty much everything (including claims to the throne) when they become Guards? Or am I confusing them with the Night's watch?

Popular Post ZachEY Posted April 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2019 Ok - Fan theory I just came up with. Arya is pregnant with Gendry’s baby and this whole episode was the most elaborate gender reveal of all time. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As King's guard no, but only when he is actually a member of the King's Guard. Tommen kicked him out of the King's Guard when he marched on the High Sparrow with the Tyrells to save Margery (season 6 I believe). Being out of the King's Guard made Jamie the true heir to Casterly Rock again and he's free to have kids, hold lands etc. etc. This would include a claim to Iron Throne. With the rules of succession and Cersei currently having no children or spouse, Jamie could make an argument that he is next in line as her oldest sibling.

What about the fact the entire world knows that her children are from incest and actually have no ties to the Iron Throne and there are now technically 3 people who would be next in line; Dany, Snow and Gendry?

There’s always gonna be some bullsh*t. The Battle of The Bastards was equally nonsensical on that front but it was an easier battle to do. Blackwater and Watchers on the Wall are by far the best two battles they’ve done IMO, and even there you had ridiculous scenes like Stannis leading from the front. But it would be pretty lame watching nothing but nameless fighters. Interesting that this is by far the lowest rated of the battle episodes on IMDB and RT. Guess I’m not the only miserable c*nt out there. Heh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The things I really like about Blackwater that really made it realistic was this Green explosive substance that nobody can explain floating in the water that took out half of Stannis fleet by a simple shot of a fire arrow. It was than very realistic when he took half of his broken army to storm the castle. Both realistic and wise military decisions. What I really found great about the Wall fight and what really made it realistic was how these dudes with ice picks climbed an ice wall the size of the Empire State Building and as long as the great wall of China. And then the realism doubled down when all of a sudden a bunch of Giants started to join the fight and men the size of their fingers took them out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, you didn't like the realism of a substance called "Wildfire" that needs magic to help create it, and that no one had been able to make until the dragons came back. Then, you didn't like the realism of climbing an ice wall 500 feet tall, nor the realism of Giants. Gotcha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I dont appreciate is how a calvary of crazy fighters didnt flank an army of dead people, giants and dragons after their swords were lit on fire by a lady who once released her vagina spirit to kill a "King". 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, the more I think about it; why did the writers have Bran send a few Ravens to observe General Patton. He could have come away with a crazy wicked militaristic strategy that would have surely been more realistic than what we watched the other night.
