d-d-d-dAz Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I saw a fucking fantastic fan theory that suggests Bran's pissing about with time could be the catalyst for the whole war that kicked everything off. It even suggested that after believing his dad could hear him, he tries to influence with the Mad King (before he was mad) only the King could only sense presences, and hear whispers, thus actually sending him mad in the first place.
Ghostface1982 Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I'm sure the book wankers will know. Yeah, I don't particularly care. The show is generally good at reminding you who someone is if it becomes plot-relevant. It was Ser Arthur Dayne and Ser Oswald Whent. Them defending the tower whilst their King and Prince were being killed elsewhere is a big deal. Means something important was being kept in the tower.

Ugh.. If this show goes time travel I'm done with it.
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted May 10, 2016 Paid Members Posted May 10, 2016 Game of Thrones becomes Lost. I can't wait.
Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 10, 2016 Paid Members Posted May 10, 2016 Yeah that was my initial thought when I read that. Fuck that JJ Abrams-type shit.
Guest Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 I think ned "hearing" him to tease he can interact, is teasing to the shot in the preview for the season with the wite king more than anything to do with starting a war
W35ty Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 If there is going to be 8 series then we are near the amount of episodes in a normal whole series (22-26 episodes).
Paid Members air_raid Posted May 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted May 11, 2016 Oh Ramsey, you cad. Imagine the fun he'll have with a Stark boy to torment.

If this show goes time travel I'm done with it. Yeah that was my initial thought when I read that. Fuck that JJ Abrams-type shit. Is the ability to hold a presence with influence in the past any worse than the sorcery, foresight into the future and the ability to influence the future (Stannis & Meli's leeches) that they've already done?
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted May 11, 2016 Moderators Posted May 11, 2016 Yes. Influencing the future is far less convoluted than affecting the past.
Paid Members air_raid Posted May 11, 2016 Paid Members Posted May 11, 2016 Eh, guess I'm more "in for a penny, in for a pound" when it comes to impossible bollocks. Being raised a Trekkie will do that to you.
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted May 11, 2016 Moderators Posted May 11, 2016 I think that's the problem for me. Influencing future outcomes with magic is very much in the realm of fantasy.. But once you start messing with the past and creating time paradoxes it's getting too into sci fi territory for me, however it's dressed up.

To be honest, I'm not arsed with that hokey shite either. I just want badass knights knocking seven bells out of each other.
Paid Members quote the raven Posted May 12, 2016 Paid Members Posted May 12, 2016 Bran would have to fuck with the mad king alot to send him mad. So unless he makes it a nightly thing to go see him and talk to him about....not going mad? i dont see it.
Guest Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 If there is going to be 8 series then we are near the amount of episodes in a normal whole series (22-26 episodes). Sorry, don't understand this at all? So far including series 6 will be 60 episodes. Series 7 & 8 currently rumored to be shorter in terms of numbers of episodes, but I imagine this is a plush to get more money from hbo to stick with usual 10 a year
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted May 12, 2016 Paid Members Posted May 12, 2016 He could just be chatting to the three eyed Raven, and blurt out "he burned his prisoners alive?!". Mad king's eyes light up.
