All Hail Queen Arya!
On a semi-unrelated note, doesn't she still have a name to name from when she named and then un-named the faceless man during their escape from Harrenhal? Might that come into play before the end? Or was that name collected when she killed the Waif (who arguably had no name to collect)?

Unless I am remembering something from that scene. It was an awfully long time ago.
She unnamed Jaqen H'ghar when he agreed to her help Gendry, Hot Pie, and her escape.  Any of the dozen or so guards Jaqen killed would have sufficed.
She did unname him, but that leaves a name on the table at the end of their little adventure together
Clearly addressed by him.  He tells her that the red god has had his due.
thanks, I figured there was something I just haven't seen it in a long time

To be honest, the Dorne storyline was kind of messed up in the books, too. The books went downhill, too. We're supposed to believe a man so extremely cautious and careful that his family and court chafe at him would send the eldest two of his three heirs on extremely risky ventures with little prospects for success and minimal protection.  Martin is somewhat better than D&D on the Dorne story, but still weak.

Dorne doesn't really care about the concept of bastards.  They're not really part of that society.

Of course the show's treatment of the whole thing is absurd regardless.
View Quote
They do care when it comes to inheriting power.  Dorne is sexually liberal but the Martells didn't rule for thousands of years by letting bastards in.

I was watching the Tower of Joy fight earlier and got to wondering.. think we'll see Howland Reed? Odd that the previous Three Eyed Raven mentioned him.

Only 6 episodes left.  Dozens of storylines to wrap up.  Already 100+ characters and we know we are getting even more.

I’m guessing “no.”

The only reason for Reed to show up would for him to somehow confirm Jon as being Rhaegar's son, and I don't see that happening in the show.

HBO GO or HBO NOW.

It would be pretty cool if HBO partnered with a theatre chain to have watch parties each week.

Does HBO play it on a loop or anything? Pretty sure I have a company dinner on the first sunday i am there. Had a check of the hotel I'll be in for the first week and they say they have cable channels.

Google has also informed me that there is a free HBO go trial through Amazon Prime, which I have. Maybe this will be my best option

I was thinking the same thing, at least for the finale.

Late Sunday nights are probably a slow time for them anyways.

They could easily sell out and pack the theater.

The old lady is her true form.  She puts on the necklace/glamour/charm/whatever and that turns her into the hot redhead.

She might turn back into her true form when she dies, but it probably won’t play a major role in anything.

Anybody else think the lord of light/ fire religeon will have some significance in the outcome? Watching all the episodes over again I noticed that religeon is the only one that shows any signs of their god being real/legit. Bringing people back to life, multiple priestesses knowing all about people they dont even know, visions in the flames of the future that came true, giving birth to a smoke assassin, the leeches and the death of the kings, the necklace thing. What other religeons have shown anything? Old gods, new gods, many face, drowned, I cant think of anything out of all of them combined.

There are three religions which have shown magical powers - the Others, the Lord of Light, and the Children of the Forest.  GRRM has said that the seasons are unnatural, and I think that is a reference to both the Other and the Lord of Light.  I think part of the finale will be the end of both the Others and the Lord of Light, giving Westeros normal seasons once again.

Also, I think the Many Faced God that the Faceless Men worship is the Other.  I think that is part of the shock Arya is going to get this season.  The Faceless men were born in the slave mines of Valyria, and it makes sense that the Other would grant them power against the Valyrians, whose dragons clearly put them in the camp of the Lord of Light.

This. The return of living dragons coincided with enhanced powers for the warlocks of Qarth and the pyromancers in Kings Landing.

He's not going to survive.  He and Cersei came into the world together, and they will leave the world together.  It would be really cool if Bran told him about Ned Stark's offer.  Remember in Season 1 Ned offered Cersei a chance to leave with her children before telling Robert (which ended up being his downfall).  If she had taken him up on that, they'd probably all be alive today.  Tywin would have either protected them at the Rock, or sent them to Essos beyond Stannis' reach.  Jamie was never one for titles, and I think he would have been happy to live in obscurity in some mansion in the Free Cities with Cersei and their children.  Cersei is the one who had to sacrifice everything for power.

The last book ended with Snow being stabbed. We’re not even sure he’s dead.

Everything beyond that is the showrunners’ imagination.
