About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that...

I was watching these yesterday on HBO Go. Thought they were great. I particularly liked the one with The Hound. He seems like he'd be a fun guy to hang out with. [Reply]

They should have taken a page from Vikings and had him stung by a bee.
That was, at the very least, a creative idea. In terms of execution, I still vastly prefer Littlefinger's death, though. [Reply]

No. You are ofc trying to make an extreme situation to make my opinion seem outlandish. No it would have made sense to me of how his character had developed to be impressed with Sansa and tell her he's taught her all he knew and that he's proud. And go out like he knew this was coming. I choose to believe he never sold her to the Boltons.That was out of character for him. [Reply]

Except for he did "sell" her to the Boltons and it was completely in character for him. [Reply]

Taking the L and resigning himself to his fate would have NEVER been in character for Baelish.
He was always going to go out scheming/manipulating to his last breath. Even his groveling the seconds before he died was insincere and from that perspective he absolutely went out according to character. [Reply]
