Re: Howland Reed?

He can authenticate what is possibly the most important of Bran's disclosures. Actually, Howland Reed cannot authenticate Bran's claim: all he can do is support Bran's claim. As an eye witness, he knows that Ned brought a baby away from the Tower of Joy, and that the baby was Lyanna's. It was obvio...

Re: Howland Reed?

I won't be at all surprised if he appears.

He can authenticate what is possibly the most important of Bran's disclosures.

Re: s07e01 - Dragonstone

Most likely Podrick. But LF needn't have heard it directly from Pod, nor does he necessarily know the exact circumstances. Pod might well have mentioned it in conversation with people at Winterfell. Word gets round. People pass things on, and others overhear.

Re: Arya Scene

You were determined to be disappointed, whatever happened. As for the magic, we've seen glamour used before. Even in the book, where Melisandre uses a glamour re Mance Rayder. It's not explained in detail, nor does it need to be. Not really, I gave substantial evidence as to why the scene fell flat...

Re: What are you going to do the hours before it starts?

I have often been unable to resist watching at 2 am, but the 'live' showing always contains lots of ads. I'm going to try and hold off until the morning and watch on catch-up.

Ok so like... are you basing this "3 mins of Dany" Off premiere info or leaks or what?
It is premiere info, not from the leaks.
That is still a leak and a spoiler in my opinion. I wish you had kept it to yourself.

Anyone who wants just a summary, "Benioff and Weiss were misguidedly farming for an Emmy for Maisie, and BTW I loathe them as amateurs".
Thanks. I don't have the time to waste an hour listening to him droning on.
