Re: Game of Thrones (S6E04) -- "Book of the Stranger" -- 5/15/16
Am I the only one annoyed by how much of a pussy Jon Snow has been since being resurrected?
Before he got killed his character was coming along nicely. Growing into his role as Night Commander. Displaying leadership and bravery by choosing to help the Wildlings. But since being resurrected all hes done is whine about losing and say hes got no more fight left in him. I thought he would be on a rampage once he learned that the Boltons had Ricon. But Sansa basically had to grab him by the collar and tell him to go save his brother. And even then he gave a meek "yes maam" head nod. ughhh |

So the complaint is that he was on a certain trajectory ("coming along nicely"), and being betrayed and murdered by his brothers changed that trajectory?

If the hair on her head didn't burn, her bush is probably intact as well.

He needed Sansa to at least get him to consider fighting again. |

He's living in a castle, supposedly married, and spending the autumn of his years enjoying a relatively boring life like he wanted. His story is done. It would be foolish to see him dicking around King's Landing again for whatever reason just because the character happens to be a fan favorite.

Random thought...
When Queen Cersei was naked before her people, it was a humiliating event. But when Queen Daenerys was naked before her people, it was an empowering event. Comparing and contrasting these 2 instances of a naked Queen standing before her people shows that the circumstances of why they are naked are more important than just the mere lack of clothing. |

No, that would have been predictable. I'm sure an omnipotent, seemingly invincible Jon Snow full of confidence and swagger might have been entertaining but I'm glad they didn't go that route. |

I'm not sure about that. After getting a glimpse of Sand Snake snatch, the married life might not be so appealing to him anymore.

Really? The murder of their lord, Jon Arryn, set the entire story in motion.
We've spent years at the Eyrie and most characters have at least visited. |

Do you guys think there will be a battle scene this year that will take up the entire episode or will we get one of those lame "here's the start of the battle"..."here's how it ends"?

Small battle (big, but start and ends without seeing the majority of it): Tyrells / Lannister vs. Faith Militant (and i predict it will end with something involving the high sparrow and his knees; and that one faith chick that reads at people is gonna get hers, too). Big battle: Ramsay / karstarks / umbers (at first) vs. wildlings / vale / houses still loyal to the Starks (including a turn by the Umbers). |

And the Whitewalkers could very well show up at the Bolton/Stark fight. |

Either of those could get a surprise - Danny, her Dragons, the Unsullied, Dothraki and whoever else she commands could make a surprise appearance at Kings Landing when that goes down.
And the Whitewalkers could very well show up at the Bolton/Stark fight. But the Dany stuff -- i don't think anyone from that storyline is getting on a boat until the very end of the season. then it'll be one of those slow reveal shots where it pulls back to show the entirety of her combined army. (all speculation, of course, in case anyone was thinking something was being spoiled.) |
