Lots of pieces falling into place for the final stretch now. There are going to be a lot of interesting dynamics in the end.
-Jaime and Cersei have taken wildly different arcs throughout the story. You have to figure that there will eventually be a reckoning between them.
-How in Westeros do the Lannisters even put up a fight against the Unsullied, Dothraki, Dorne, and Tyrells? Oh, and three dragons. If it were just the unsullied/dothraki I'd get it as Westerosi have the advantage when it comes to armor, fortifications and weapons (Jorah's duel back in season 1 or 2 comes to mind) but it looks like Dany should be able to just be like "Do you really wanna even try?" and take the throne. Maybe if Euron shows up and wants to impress Cersei by sinking a lot of ships. The ironborn should fare well at sea while the dothraki and unsullied are kinda useless on boats. But those three dragons up top are quite problematic.
-What does a three eyed raven do other than give convenient exposition to the audience?
-Does Arya meet up with her siblings or is she gonna hook up with the Brotherhood and kill a bunch of people?
-When does Baelish get whats coming to him?
-Now that winter is here, how is the North going to be able to logistically fight the incoming White Walkers?
We saw last week what the dragons could do to a fleet. I think Euron will sail out to fight Dany, get most of his ships fried, and then pull out the magic horn and say "Let's see what this does, then." That's when the Wall will come down (and perhaps it might even do something to Dany's ships).
Apparently trees were the First Ones' version of TV.
I'm going on record as saying that I think Arya may die before it is all over.
Another call: Sansa kills Baelish. She knows what he is and how he works. He'll try to doublecross Jon and she'll find out and kill him.
I wouldn't be surprised to see a murder-suicide with Jaime and Cersei. She just nuked her own city and had her last child commit suicide. She's pretty much off her rocker. This is Mad King stuff here... and Jaime knows it. He'll kill her, but won't stick around to hear the "Queenslayer" title.
I wonder what secrets Sam is going to learn. And what about the Hound? where is he going to end up? And there sure seems to be a lot of estrogen floating around the show anymore.
