I don't think Jon and co will ever go south of the neck They could retreat to Greywater Watch in S7, which could be how Jon meets Howland Reed in the show. |

I imagined winterfell being their post during s7, but I guess they might retreat. If they retreat, it will probably be near the end of the season so yeah I think they'll stay in Winterfell building the defenses and trying to bring everyone from The North, The Vale, and The Riverlands together. The Southern Houses will likely be at civil war so they aren't going to get much help from them. |

Moat cailin or Riverrun would be my guess. |

Because Riverrun is pretty much indefensible. Sure, it is a strong fortress that is very difficult to take in itself, but we already saw how easily the Riverlands get overrun in war. At Riverrun, only the fortress itself can stop an enemy, but there is no natural barrier. It is easily surrounded. |

The reason I said Greywater Watch before was because it's hard to find, but I assume they will stay in Winterfell for as long as they can and build stronger defenses. |

The "stylistically new" stuff is also very interesting. Other actors have also commented on how weird and unlike GoT some parts of season 6 are. I wonder what they mean by it. It obviously has nothing to do with battles or deaths because that's what you expect from GoT. I can think of two things - the amplification of the more philosophical story threads, like Arya's last year, which was indeed quite "unlike GoT"; or an in-depth look at the mystical/supernatural/religious aspects like we've never seen before. Maybe a mix of both. Not sure what this means since Arya's story in season 5 was fairly close to that in A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons. Seems season 6 will have parts of Arya's story in those novels , even part of Winds of Winter... and parts that probably will never be in any of GRRM's novels! |

I guess it will depend on how much of him (if it's even identified as him) we see in the TOJ scene whether or not they expand on his role and eventually he comes into play. |

We got a namedrop or two, so it's definitely possible. |

I think if they weren't going to have Howland Reed be a thing on the show, they wouldn't have bothered having Jojen state that his father fought with Ned during the Rebellion.
They may not make him as important as he could be in the books (which is all speculation at this point anyways) but they've already set him up as a character and they typically follow through once the name-dropping occurs. Fans wondered why we heard Arthur Dayne's name come up multiple times over the past few seasons and we can see why now. Same with Sam's father.
I agree it will be interesting to see if they give him anything in the way of lines in the ToJ sequence or if he just ends up being the last standing member of Ned's entourage that we're supposed to mostly infer is him because of the books.
My guess is that the show will include dialogue in the sequence that establishes that this is Reed and it will make much more sense to do so given that it's a Bran vision and it will link up Meera to the explanation with her father being involved as well. I have no idea if they'll bother introducing a present-day Howland into the mix though. It really depends on how much of a role he does end up playing in the books. If he's there simply to tell Jon about his parentage and not much else, then the show can devise another way to relay this info.

Batman vs Superman spoilers: Hmm, so I think Jon will find out his mother's identity before SNOWBOWL, and at the climax of the battle, when Jon and Ramsay finally face each other in single combat, Ramsay will tell Jon that his mother's name was also Lyanna and they will stop fighting. Instead of killing each other, they join forces and lead their armies north to defend the Wall against the White Walkers together. That would be awesome  |

Roose is his Nissa Nissa. |

Hi guys! I've just seen this:
Tomorrow Canal + will air a special program called "Game of thrones. Trip to Spain" with exclusive footage from the filming of season six and interviews with the actors. As you can see in the tweet at least we will have new interviews with Tom, Peter, Emilia and Iain...
Looking forward to it, hopefully we will see or hear something interesting...
