Goddamn.

Did all of that just happen?

This thing went from "fine, I'll watch it but this season sucked" to "HOLY FUCKITY FUCKING SHIT" for over an hour. Mouth open, pausing the screen, holy fuck.

I think he has the wrong last name but I'm not looking it up.

Boom. Legit contender for the throne. Good night and good luck Westeros.

Well. Apparently the Tower of Joy is in Dorne, so maybe Jon Sand? But that sounds stupid. His father was married to a princess there, but it's more likely to be from the the family's region.
 
We're to believe that a football fields worth of something as devastating as 'wildfire' was stored secretly below the city for what, 50 years? The handful of people in power knew it was there didn't think it was a good idea to store it someplace a little safer? :hmm:

Sanity is in short supply amongst the ruling class in Westeros. Who's to say it wasn't someone's version of the nuclear option for the time?

I don't think it was stored under the Sept. And I don't think Cersei realized there was any wildfire left until she consulted the "Mad Scientist" dude a few episodes back to ask if "the rumors were true." And he replied "More than true." Then I'm assuming they had some of it moved to the cellar under the Great Sept so they could blow the whole circus, clowns and all.

There were a few hints about it over the series and in the books. Sure, how did no one know it was there? Tyrion did for the Blackwater and he consulted the pyromancers or at least one of them. Presumably they kept it hidden, but how do you do that for a few generations?

Eh, it has dragons. A little timeline is a nonevent.

As soon as the camera panned out and you could see the green tinted barrels? The only question was "how many will escape, if any at all." I paused it right there and poured a drink. Then Tommen going out like that kept it rolling.

Littlefinger needs to burn and Sansa HAS to be the one to bring him down.

So you're an overweight and jaundiced dickhead? I guess one out of three isn't bad. :D
 
So next Season we have:
  • Cersei on the Iron Throne
  • John Targaryen Snow the new King In The North with intentions TBD
  • Sansa finally grown up/developing some cunning with an awareness of Little Finger's aspirations
  • Little Finger with Robin's army and Jon/Sansa viewed as a potential obstacles beween him and the Iron Throne
  • The Night King coming for blood from the north
  • Bran about to accidentally take down The Wall
  • Arya back in Westeros with the will and wherewithal to get all stabby-stabby
  • Melissandre heading south, a woman scorned
  • Sam burning valuable screen time in Old Town
  • Dorne and the Tyrells coming for blood from the south
  • Daenerys, Yara, and Theon coming for blood from the east
Could be a great season if they keep the tone and pace of the future episodes on par with the last two from this season.

I had to look it up. A bastard's name is connected with the father's house location or where they were raised, but there are no hard and fast rules for it either. Jon could be a Rivers, but Snow makes sense if he's raised as Eddard Stark's son with no connection to the Targaryens.

Yeah, that is actually why I suggested Jon Sand based on his father being married to the princess in Dorne, but his father's house I suppose could just as much be where you said for River. Regardless, I think it is safe to say that he will likely always be a Jon Snow or Jon Stark (if possible)

Surprised no one has mentioned the epic fuck you that Cersi sent to the woman that tortured her. You know, how she had the Mountain split the valley all the way to the hinterlands, unleashing a flood in the process. There was certainly a blood moon that night.

Cersei Lannister has no chill. She is now the show's primary villain.
