By the way, now that the Kingsmoot is upon us... What do we think about the Dragonhorn? Is it in the show or not? I really wonder how much of the supernatural stuff Euron's involved with in the books the show will be willing to include. The dragon horn's one thing but then there's also the whole angle of him having those warlocks in his custody and being into Shade of the Evening and all of that. We don't know either way how far they'll take that but he seemed quite out-there in his introduction (though obviously his appearance has been toned down significantly) and I'd like it if they left him every bit as loopy as he is in the books. He's a good villain to segue the story from featuring political-minded human villains towards featuring supernatural villains. He's just in between. That's why I really liked that fake leak we got for episode 4, with Euron appearing with some strange looking pirates and Aeron questioning his young appearance. It's closer to that dream I had last week  |

By the way, judging by the number of views for the promo each week and the surprisingly positive comment sections (ever since season 2 onwards they have usually been very whiny), I've never noticed this much excitement for the show in general.
Far more than 2 million views already.

I think Jerome has been shooting Ripper Street that is why he is not in this season more WHAT THE FUCK WITH LITTLEFINGER?! I don't mind him teleporting but the only possible way Sansa would kill him/not believe him is if she stabbed him the first time she has the chance. Since he is seeing her as early as next episode of course Sansa is either going to buy into his bullshit or forgive him. And then he helps out in the battle and is on path of redemption or whatever. Gross. And such bad writing.  Super psyched about Bran's vision and this being his vision for next episode confirms my predictions ToJ part 2 is in 6x06  OT but Ripper Street is a fantastic show. It's my second favorite, next to GoT. Back on topic: I can't stomach Sansa buying any more of LF's lies. Maybe she just pretends to believe him but begins to plot against him? A girl can hope. |

I'm comparing it to previous seasons, which had much less views. On average, episodes 5-10 of last season got about 1.5 million views per episode (discounting the first four because of the leak). This season in its first 4 episodes has a minimum view-count that is more than double last year's average. I don't think that a rise in the number of viewers is proportional to the views we are seeing for the promos. |

There's also the possibility of Euron being a rogue protege of Bloodraven's. The warlocks and not all that important but I could see warging and the dragonhorn being revealed. Aside from those who don't even like Theon/Yara, the general audience seemed surprisingly receptive to Euron intro, which was pretty much book Euron plus an Odyssey-like sea story and minus the eye-patch and sexual aggressiveness. |

I am very intrigued by Kinvara , is she the High Priestess of R'hllor ?
Is she taking Moqorro's place, he was sent by High Priest Benerro of the Red Temple in Volantis to advise Dany.
I have long had this theory that the religion of R'hllor knows all about the Night'sKingOthers and is trying to arrange it's defeat.

I'd like to see in the next episodes a more in-depth look into R'hllor's true nature and the Lord of Light's faith. It's probably one of the two biggest mystical mysteries in the story (the other one being the origin and motivations of the White Walkers), and somehow I suspect both mysteries are intertwined. It's exciting to think that we could have the answers of some of the oldest and biggest questions in the ASOAIF universe in a matter of weeks! |

Would be nice if there's some sort of concrete 'meaning' to all this religion, mysticism and magic intertwined. It's one of the areas I've always suspected GRRM is intentionally vague about because he hadn't quite unraveled the end meaning himself though he claims he's always known the 'ending' all along (and I believe him) - it seems less clear how the magic all plays it's part in that. |

We should get the first batch of photos for the next episode today, right? IIRC, they have released on Wednesdays for the previous episodes.

Kinvara looks so much like Rachel Weisz.

The pictures seem to confirm what we suspect: Meereen, Dany, Bran, The Wall, Arya and Pyke will be the storylines for 06x05. So King's Landing and Winterfell are taking the backseat. No Dorne and no Sam neither.

Well, I'll do it". Then I posted the rest of the pictures, and meanwhile you had edited your post.  |
