They should have made Ramsay Bolton more like Euron,
Definitely not. He was chillingly banal in his evil, he enjoyed it but wasn't a capering fool about it. He was Hannibal Lechter to Euron's Joker.

I agree mostly with you but I think he is way less interesting than the joker. Hes definitely a clown. Most clowns are boring and he falls into that category

What's great about this show is that there's so many unique type of characters it gives everyone someone to love, someone to hate, someone to hate to love, someone to love to hate.. And we never agree about which is which.

Anyone who thinks Ramsey Bolton is more interesting than Euron Greyjoy needs to have their head examined. Ramsey was a one dimension sadist, who loves torture porn, he wasn't scary at all, just crazy. Euron Greyjoy says and does actual entertaining things, even if you don't like him, he spices up the show, all Ramsay gave us was the battle of Winterfell, his dad was much cooler, and then they killed him off, and left Ramsay to soak up all the extra screen time, much to the shows detriment.

There's a worksheet you can fill out to predict who lives & dies (and if they become a white walker.) Three bonus questions at the end. Anyone want to play? I am willing to keep score if you post your list.

Downloadable .docx file. https://www.thedad.com/genius-boss-crea ... -spoilers/

I'm a terrible guesser, but this is what I think as of now. ( I have no idea why Daario is in there. )

Bonus Questions:
1. Is Daenerys pregnant? (1 extra point) No
2. Who kills the Night King? (2 points) Arya
3. Who holds the Iron Throne at the end? (4 points) Sansa

You just want to see Brienne and Tormund get it on. And Podrick lives, he's a survivor.

Someone deserves a happy ending. ;) That's my best guess.

I hope I'm wrong about Gendry - he and Arya could get something going, too.

Are ya gonna fill one out?

So what happens to the Zombie Dragon?

Dragon glass harpoon fired Hobbit Style?

Two on one non-zombie dragon vs zombie dragon aerial combat?

Bron takes him out single handed with an equestrian dragon glass lance charge?

Are there any Wildling giants left?

Zombie dragon dies when the Night King dies.

I predict zombie dragon kills Dany near the end, but she won't become a wight, because the Knight King will die very shortly after, before he has a chance to change her.

Again, I'm a terrible guesser. I predict I get half total points or less. That said I'm a terrible guesser, so who knows?

I think it's gonna be fun to watch it shake out.

I see GOT as a metaphor for millennial relationships...

Jon is the intellectual cis male cuck and the zombies are his shadow aggression - Daenerys is the hot headed feminist alpha chick...

So they both will live to the end of the story.

The question is will Jon get his balls back.

Does he get Daenerys to bend the knee and, well you know where that plotline goes.

Or does Daenerys seize the Iron Throne and subject the seven kingdoms to rule under Hilary Clinton.

I like ending number one better... but then I would, wouldn't I. ;)
