HBO / MAX Game of Thrones - Brace yourselves, spoilers are coming

[Diavolo]

I hope joffrey gets raped by a nightwalker

 

[Diavolo]

Also, who is the bird keeper guy at the Wall? He is the brother of the mad king? What is the relation of that guy to the starks. I forget that part.

 

[Mook]

hes not related at all. hes just a guy at the wall. he offered snow advice on what to do in relation to staying or going.

wiki says hes the "grand uncle" of the mad king

 

[skeezer]

i don't see the point of any of this now.

i don't see the point of any of this now.

theres 3 or 4 books in this series. i think things will work out

 

[skeezer]

i'm unhappy with this turn of events. we know what john snow will do.

i'm more interested in seeing what happens with khal and all that crazy shit.

 

[Mook]

oh it sucks for sure. but theres a lot more now going on. its gonna suck when the finale hits. hope theres not a super long wait for season 2.

 

[skeezer]

I took it that he was the brother of the "mad king"

 

[Mook]

thats what i thought he said. maybe they changed it for tv?

the internet says hes the uncle.

maybe the confusion was this his brother and family died while he was on the wall?

 

[jason05gt]

I'd like to read the book. My dad is reading it, so I will ask him.

 

[Mook]

i started reading it last night. ill see how far i can get this week

Wasn't Ned effectively the main character of the show? I guess I'm puzzled as to how this is going to work out.

 

[Diavolo]

He was a main character, but the show doesn't really have one main character. The overall theme seems to be about the families as a whole, more than one character.

 

[IDAFC21]

It never gets old. Not even after 10 minutes.

 

[Mook]

good god

Yup, a Targaryen, the brother of the mad king and uncle of the knocked-up, white-haired dragon girl. At least from my understanding of the explanation my gf gave me when I asked the same question.

Edit: Might not be right with uncle/grand uncle but he's a Targaryen.

There are some major characters of the series that haven't been introduced yet, like King Robert's brother, the rightful heir to the throne. Casting of those roles haven't been announced yet I don't think.

King Robert's brother has been in a few episodes.

I guess yesterday's episode was the season finale, which sucks. I am going to have to wait until next Spring I guess.
