But i think Epi 9 would be the Hardhome episode....with episode 10 being Dany getting whisked away in the Fighting Pits.

Episode 8 is called "Hardhome".

Alfie Allen doesn't get the credit he is warranted for his Theon/Reek. Dude seriously has me totally convinced he's gone from one of the most pompous, arrogant and self-confident people in Westeros to a man less than a man...the shyt ALMOST breaks my heart.

Brehs,

I'm pretty sure that this is Arya/Meryn Trant and this is the second adaptation of the "Mercy" chapter



If Arya does an actual face change this season

Except for the fact that it is canon untrue

It almost makes too much sense for me to believe it, but at the same time I want this to be true so badly. I honestly can't tell if i really believe it or i just want it to be true.

azor ahai exist in the show? i can't recall hearing it mentioned.

Never said his name, just "Lord of Light"

Ok so if you cut both books in half you get one season of story, which is exactly what we are getting. So what's your complaint?

At this point nobody knows what constitutes an important story line. So all those boring travel stories in books 4 and 5 could be just a waste of words for all we know.

My point is they're rushing through the books more than they ever have in the show and I'm not entirely sure that they have to or should. I'm beginning to wonder exactly how close to the books the finale will be

No way mance is rhaegar breh, though I also wish it was true. That fat fukk needs to hurry up and finish the next fukking book

Books 4 & 5 have quite a few dry parts in them. Add in the fact that entire storylines and characters are being dropped, how do you really expect them to drag this out. And then on top of that, why would you want them to stretch out the story? Go in the show thread and you see people complaining that the season has been slow so far, so I think the pacing is fine IMO.
