true, but i think there is a limit to his paranormal intellect.
he brought the mountain back, but he's a husk now. he didn't bring him back like the priests brought back Jon & Beric with their consciousnesses.
and qyburn can't generate any paranormal activity like we've seen Melisandre do.

Jamie is a useful idiot type, I can't see the character going any other direction, I think he'll end up realizing he's just a pawn when she asks him to do something horrible and he will have to chose to either assume his dedication to her or "quit".

So mad I was exposed to a huge spoiler 
It was some random poster on the FB comments of a website I follow.

There's assholes everywhere. Posting straight spoilers or even using leaks to look smart with predictions.

Jeor's sister, former Lord Commander, father to Jorah.

mhmmmmmm
Lore videos made me realize that we haven't seen or heard anything about Storm's End, have we? Do we know what happened to it/who holds it?
That's totally going to be the series finale then. "Storm's End". It even has a fitting name for a series finale.

But what importance does it have?

Remember when the Red Wedding was spoiled on Gaf? I hope that guy got the heaviest ban ever
Remember when South Park spoiled that Joffrey got poisoned? That was such a fucking dick move.
Nothing TOO noteworthy from the vids, short of being rumoured to be this huge and un-conquerable keep.
And it's the only keep/castle of the big/famous families that's not been shown.
whah?
I wasn't spoiled exactly what happened, but I was spoiled by website-news article suggestions with clickbaity titles like "THE SHOCKING TWIST AT THE END OF THE RED WEDDING" at the top of my news feed. so I knew to expect SOMETHING big and shocking.
like c'mooooooon

But why would it show up? The Baratheons are all dead/have no relevance.

What douchebags...
Cersei is on the throne as the widow of Robert. Baratheons still hold the throne in that sense.
Benzychenz

But there's no Baratheon characters in the show and we're too close to the end to introduce anyone.
Makes me wonder what happens to houses when everyone in them dies. Like what the hell is going on in Dorne right now? Are a bunch of smaller houses fighting to be the top dogs? Are all the women Freys now ruling? There's no story relevance in showing us that but it'd be cool to know in a lore video or something.

She declared herself Queen, in a King kind of way, so I don't think Baratheon means anything anymore.
BigJonsson

She's not even calling herself Baratheon, though, I still find it odd that the Stag shows up in the intro. By all the accounts it's a Lannister on the throne, she has even replaced the seven pointed star with a lion.
Eh, she crowned herself as Cersei Lannister, and the only place in King's Landing where a Baratheon Sigil is shown instead of the Lannister Lion is in the intro lol. Even Cersei's room has lion cuts outs as frames.

I'm mostly curious about what happened to the Keep. Who holds it? It's supposed to be this very impressive castle, gotta do SOMETHING with it.
Maybe that's where Bronn will end up!
also we never saw Stannis' body!!!!!!!!
... yeah

so between all the quality of writing, pace, teleportation etc arguments at least we can all agree on the fact that having only 7 episodes (per season) for the last two seasons was stupid right?
I wonder if Lysa was the first person that LF ever killed himself.
Actually...
Only 6 next year.
Or the year after...
Whenever they get to it.

I made a post why 7 episodes this year is going to be the main problem this year, but yeah I fully agree.
I don't want to believe D&D for some reason couldn't find enough to write about (that's ridiculous) and neither do I want to believe that HBO wouldn't pay for three more episodes this year, especially as they keep breaking viewing records.
5 & 6 were already jumping around quite a bit and could have done with a few more scenes, but this season is something else.

Its probably due to the raises the main cast got. They are paid per episode, and probably the only way to maintain the cgi quality is to cut down the amount of episodes. HBO is notoriously cheap, so even though they are spending money on the show they have their limits.
Until everybody dies and you hate it. (other than Jon ofc cuz his plot armor is too strong)

Their not looking to kill White Walkers, but they were loading the boxes of dragon glass into the boats.

well he's taking too fucking long to quit. he starts doing some nice things in the middle of the story...going back to save Brienne. Then sending Brienne to save the Stark daughters instead of kill them. Then freeing Tyrion.
After that he's just gone straight back to fuckboy Jaime, though. Getting all defensive at prisoner Edmure Tully. Then, getting back to King's Landing and barely having a reaction to Cersei burning the Queen & hundreds of innocent people alive, barely having a reaction to Cersei being responsible for Tommen's death. Then, calling Olenna a traitor for siding with Dany, when ignoring the fact that Cersei betrayed and killed the Queen and usurped the throne for herself.
fuckin fuckboy Jaime. I'm sure there is a redemption coming for him soon but he really is taking way too fucking long to flip.
That's right, you're not. You're obsessed with Jon x Dany.
just like me

D & D better not pull some bullshit of Euro hunting down those boats and sinking it. 2 episodeds remaining and I'm just about done with Eron getting more involved in the story.
Is Sam even aware for Raggers existence? I don't remember a point in time where he really cared about who Jons true father was.
Also if Jon gets to pick who his kings guards are it would probably the top 4 dudes who went with him beyond the wall.
Jorah, Hound, Thormund and Gendry..
jesus that's a GOAT team 🐐 desrving of banderas right there.
Okay thanks.

perhaps not, but for the maesters who play the roles of historians, it is very vital information that the last Targaryen prince got divorced and married again. It's vital either way.

It will still be smart to bring some. It's not like they have say on who they run into out there. I guess they can just depend on Long Claw.
