You sound crazy right now. They make her less attractive on the show.

Fred.

Seriously. She's really a beautiful chick

How do you know what they can do politically? We have no idea what the motivations of the White Walkers are. What do they want? What have they been doing for thousands of years? What kept them out of sight, out of mind? Why are they just now coming back? We know they have some form of culture and language. Martin has said his story won't just be beautiful good guys vs ugly bad guys. So it's possible that the White Walkers could want something that can be worked out with a pact or agreement. I have believed for awhile now that Jon would be the one to mediate that, especially since his entire time on the series has been him being the go-between. Either way, I really don't believe the last 15 episodes are going to be one big battle.

Also, even if the battle for the dawn is going to occur over 15 episodes, I don't think it'll happen over the entire continent. The political fallout/destruction is going to be featured, and it should, even if it won't directly connect to whatever battle will be occurring with the White Walkers.

We've seen how they operate for 6 seasons. If they start sitting down and talking through their problems would be a WOAT moment in TV history. Why didn't they talk at Hardhome? Why didn't they talk to Bran and Meera?

C'mon now. I get that some of you like the chess game aspects of the show but it would be retarded to crow bar that into an undead army, that hasn't shown any interest besides killing up to this point. It would be a jump the shark moment.

And again, I'm not saying make the rest of the series one long ass fight. I'm saying, you mentioned 5-6 characters and ZERO of them even know the White Walkers are out there. They need to be incorporated into that somehow, and either directly or indirectly interact with the characters on the front lines.

Fred.

Yeah I don't think she's "gorgeous" but I find her attractive

Fred.

And you sound like you live in a basement making judgement off heavily airbrushed pics. Could careless if she wears less make up for the show the character is starting to exude confidence and inner steel which could turn average to attractive.Just google Sophie turner and peep the pics that aren't airbrushed she's not attractive breh

did you watch that video? Sansa said "a monster has our home and our brother..we have to go back and save them both"

Jon didn't want to fight. The last thing he wanted after being brought back was more fighting.

He only wanted to save Rickon because his entire resume is saving people. Saving the girls in that weirdo's camp, saving the wildlings, saving his brothers at the wall, saving the wildlings AGAIN - that's what he does. Jon saves his people.

Jon was thinking he could negotiate at first. Sansa put that thought of a battle into his head and even guilt tripped the guy.

"Seen how they operate for 6 seasons?"We've seen them less than 10 times in the entire series. We know jack shyt about them aside from a handful of battle scenes, and the fact that they carry babies back to a ritualized area to convert them. We know they had some sort of pact with Craster, it's not a stretch that they will want another pact of some sort.

They aren't mindless zombies. HBO created an entire language just for them (the same dude who created the Dothraki language confirmed this). They want something, we don't know what it is, but it's possible it isn't a mustache twirling, "try to take over the world" pinky and the brain plot. Their motivations are one of the biggest mysteries of the series, Geroge has said this isn't evil monsters vs righteous humans, he tries to be more subversive than that.

I don't need everyone's plot to wrap up with the White Walkers. In fact, I hope the majority of the character arcs have nothing to do with them. Cersei's arc better not have shyt to do with White Walkers. Arya's arc better not have shyt to do with White Walkers. Let the fantasy shyt happen in one region and let the political shyt happen in another, and let the two parallel, compliment each other in a juxtaposition, like it has all series.

Is it me or did the weather get better in the North since last season? What's up, is Winter Coming or what?

Caster's 'deal' was inhuman as hell

How many other people in the world are about to hand over their infant children for 'protection'?

They literally facilitated human experimentation and slavery.

That alone should spell out the fact that another 'pact' isn't happening within the context of the show.

Shireen's sacrifice chased off winter for awhile.

Shireen's sacrifice chased off winter for awhile.

What?

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

The White Walkers ain't negotiating shyt.

But what happens in King's Landing and the fight for the Iron Throne has always had major influence on the other stories in the show, I don't see that changing. Clearly, the main battle is headed towards King's Landing, so what's happening there matters.

Littlefinger is a wrench in the system. He could end up, either purposely or inadvertently, being the being the reason the living can't mount a real defense. Or he could scheme his way into being the one who rises from the ashes once the living win the battle. Who knows? I just know I'm interested in seeing how this all plays out.

What do you think Arya is going to do while everyone around her will be involved with the White Walkers?

I didn't mention that pact to suggest that it's what they want overall, just that the fact that they had any deal at all proves that are capable of any form of diplomacy, whether it's malevolent or not.

Plenty of people have decently supported theories regarding what the White Walkers want, and most of them revolve around a pact that man must have broken with their bullshyt. I don't think those theories will be too far off, and I don't think a big good vs evil battle is the end game for what Geroge has in mind. He has said as much.

What?

Melisandre sacrificed Shireen and the harsh winter weather went away.
