>During the producers’ sit down with the author in Santa Fe two years ago, George R.R. Martin famously sketched out a very rough plan of how he intends to end his saga in the books. David Benioff and Dan Weiss say those conversations included “three holy sh– moments” in particular.
>1: Stannis sacrifices Shireen to R'hllor.
>2: HOLD THE DOOR
>3: "is from the very end.” (Benioff)
So was this number 3? Danaerys going insane and destroying King's Landing?
>Stannis sacrifices Shireen to R'hllor.
Not gonna happen in the books so thats a lie
Its most likely more specifically Jon killing Dany.
Its most likely going to happen in the books user, Melisandres whole thing is king/queens blood and Stannis's flaw is that be believes in her prophecies and is caught up in "muh birthright"
Number 1 is Jon getting resurrected
>1: Stannis sacrifices Shireen to R'hllor.
>2: HOLD THE DOOR
Two of the most retarded moments in the show. If it is true that GRRM suggested them, then he is as much of a hack as D&D.
I very much dislike the decision to make Stannis sacrifice Shireen to rhollor. It just seems so not-stannis to do so; breaking every moral he has as a man seems so fucky to me, it's like everything he is as a man falls apart without even a good reason. I always saw stannis as the kind of man to wait out the storm before Winterfell, stubborn and unbending even when he was told they have no chance of success with how cold the weather is.
Stannis is Agamemnon, who sacrificed his daughter to the Gods for killing a sacred Stag in the hopes they would restore favor to him and grant him good winds. It's going to happen user
What is the fucking point of Bran, why does he never use his psychic powers for anything useful
Melisandre will do it without his consent, she birthed the shadow child to kill Renly without his knowledge. The pink letter tells us that Stannis was defeated, that probably causes her to do the sacrifice
I don't even mind if it does as long as it happens logically, it's just that D&D completely butchered him on the show when he became a zealot, burned people for no reason and didn't act the part of being one of the great generals on Westeros. One of the few characters in the show gimped by logistics because Ramsay and his good men burned his supplies.
Stannis literally said
>there will be no burnings, pray harder
Melisandre or Selyse will sacrifice Shireen, Stannis is busy fighting the Boltons
not really it's probably played out different in the books. and number 3 is jon killing dany, but in the books it may have to do with lightbringer but grrm just wanted to fuck with dnd for the show
Source?
maybe you dont know what good writing is. Keep watching your disney princess movies
Stannisfags are like the male version of Danyfags
>So was this number 3?
Doubtful. That's probably something they should have known from the beginning. They were gradually presenting her as a fearsome tyrant, albeit clumsily.
But then again, the leaks for the final episode don't really smack of anything as heavy as sacking KL, so what do I know.
Literally, how can you claim to have read the books but lack reading comprehension?
Stannis isn't going to burn his daughter, she isn't even with him.
Now MEL, she will, probably to bring Jon back and without Stannis' consent.
Remember this scene?
Yeah I'm guessing this is how it happens, I'm also guessing that even with Dany it's not as bad as it is in the show. Like Jon killing her is probably related to Lightbringer and not because she's mad, and her slaughtering the people probably has some other explanation too.
Guarantee you the crazy moment in the books will either be about Rickon or Jon
Rickon
>permanently becomes Shaggydog or violent cannibal
Jon
>forgets his memories(maybe ones about Arya) or stays forever as Ghost
obviously the #3 is 'Bran sits on the iron throne' at the end because fucking why
If the books do ever come out, I don’t think Jon and Daenerys will ever meet. Her conflict will clearly be with Aegon(who is most likely a blackfyre).
isn't that snow though

He was nowhere near finishing the current book when he told them this, he gave them the roughest outline possible, the fact they were okay with such a basic outline to finish off what had been a pretty well put together show up until season 5 says more about them than GRRM, haven't refused his attempts to help them for the past few seasons?
Ashes, so it's pretty clever.
>hold the door

Yeah, to kill Littlefinger with the worst plot device ever. If it wasn't because he can literally see the past, Littlefinger would still be in the show. I'm still mad and I always will be.
Stannis himself is probably not going to order for Shireen to be burned.
What I can see happening is that Melly believes Stannis lost the battle at Winterfell and tries to bring him back by sacrificing Shireen, since she's at Castle Black in the books.
Kind of astounding how eager they were to use Bran Ex Machina last season to protect the Starks but this season he doesn't really care about... anything? I don't know why I'm trying to figure out this show at this point, it's pretty pointless.
Yes, once it hits the writers that Bran is a world-breaking advantage, they seem to just tuck him aside as some "too wise and removed for this world" demigod, and they hope you forget about him, just like how Dany forgot about the Iron Fleet.
I guess they are trying to make Bran like a disillusioned Dr. Manhattan, I think. He isn't really seen to even care much about the outcome of his family in the "Last War". He's just watching them all do their thing with the interest of someone watching an ant farm, and is just biding time for when he is left alone again to warg/greensee some porn or something.
