The guy who showed up to save Jon is named Cold Hands, a dead/reanimated version of Benjen Stark, Jon's uncle. His disappearance during season 1 led to a good amount of the plot for that season and season 2.Originally posted by trixR4kids View Post
They don't explain the Cold Hands moniker in the show. He showed up last season to save Bran. In the books, he helped save Samwell and Guilly when they were returning to the Wall."The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

I've always just assumed they were turning him into a white walker because to be a wight you have to die. You're just a zombie under mind control. I think the Night King probably recognizes great fighters that are more valuable to the race than just cannon fodder.the state of hockey is goodComment

The closest comparison to Brienne and Renly is Dany and Jorah. It was completely 1-sided and it ended up leading to the one that is pining for the other performing the role as body guard for the other.Originally posted by rufus View PostHaving a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

OK. But it shows that we've had to sit through pining, dewy-eyed romantic lameness long before this Dany-Jon thing that has so many seemingly bothered. And straight from GRRM, and not just the show-runners' own creative impulses.Originally posted by bigblue_dl View PostWhat kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?Comment

I don't think there has been "dewy-eyed romantic lameness" to this point.
The rest of the actual romantic relationships were normal everyday life stuff including the ones that haven't been reciprocal.
I don't have a problem with Jon and "Dany" (
) being into each other. Makes total sense. The two prettiest people... neither attached... similar life situations/burdens...
If I'm him, I'm all over that. Same if I'm her.
The execution has been lame and almost seems to be geared towards an MTV crowd. Just hate to see the show take an unfortunate turn and worry about the boogeyman slippery slope.Last edited by Gurtholfin; 08-23-2017, 08:51 AM.Comment

If I'm him, yes, of course -- good lord what male or female wouldn't be into her?!Originally posted by Gurtholfin View PostI don't have a problem with Jon and "Dany" () being into each other. Makes total sense. The two prettiest people... neither attached... similar life situations/burdens...
