Hey YouTubers it's Charlie! hopefully you guys have had a chance to process the big
WTF game of thrones ending just remember that George RR Martin says never take anything
as gospel so it's not over till they actually roll credits on the final episode of the final
season these will be my season six predictions and as is tradition they have some new cast
members coming soon, I'll do a video for some point there's still a couple book things that
they have left to do for the most part the show has caught up with the books with book
5 Winds of Winter is supposed to be out before season six next year but I'm not going to
bank on that it could happen if it does that be wonderful. I'm also doing an extra giveaway
as part of this video it's a $20 Amazon gift card all you have to do to enter is be a subscriber
and leave a comment on this video. Here we go just careful for spoilers to be haven't
seen the episode yet what I'm going to do is go through each of the storylines and just
do predictions that way starting with Brienne and Podrick in case it wasn't evident from
the episode Gwendolyn Christie said that she missed Sansa's candle and she'll probably
find out about that and be super crushed she said that she felt like Brienne had been sitting
there for weeks waiting to see something it also shoots down theories that Sansa and Reek
might run into Brienne I know a lot of you are wondering if Stannis is still alive we
didn't see that sword run through his face. And as is tradition with shows like game of
thrones they're not dead till their head is chopped off and the body is burned I still
think she did kill him. the whole point of Stannis a storyline in the finale is letting
us know that he is not Azor Ahai. His army is decimated he has no more heirs essentially
the Baratheon line save for Gendry is dead his Kings blood is spilling out so he really
has nothing to offer in the war for the Dawn so Brienne and Podrick are probably going
to shift their attention back to Sansa it Winterfell who they think is still at Winterfell
that me shall have the Boltons in Ramsey in her target sites so we might get to see some
Brienne versus Ramsey moving onto Samwell and Gilly this is actually pretty easy one
they're going to old town they were scouting locations at places that look like they could
double for Oldtown so we could see that place in season six and I don't think that they
which was Oldtown without showing us the outside of buildings so as not to be like just the
inside of the library that they could be shooting it in any studio anywhere Oldtown is like
the next big place in westeros we haven't seen yet aside from Highgarden, think about
the Citadel it's the biggest location of learning and knowledge in westeros so of
course the series is going to have to go there at a certain point there's really only couple
places in the world Samwell can go to get information about fighting the white walkers
and I would be the Citadel or it would be like Asshai way over in the East there just
aren't that many places it takes a long time to become a Maester though so I don't think
that Samwell will be a Maester at the end of the series it takes way longer than that
the two or so years we have left moving onto Sansa and Reek to the last time we saw him
work jumping off the battlements at Winterfell I did everyone wondered you know are they
dead know they jumped into like a giant snowbank gift remember that the snow is like 6 feet
deep of all the likely places they could go Sansa knows that her brother is still alive
in Lord Commander the nights watch so I me she doesn't know that he just got the ship
stepped out of them so they could head there for protection or they could head for Theon's
family they could head towards the iron islands we do have the pirate character that sounds
an awful lot like Euron Greyjoy coming out of the show so we could see more Ironborn
stuff it makes sense that Reek would try to go to his family's home that being said I
think that Sansa is going to be the one to take charge and I think that she would want
to go for the wall just because it's a familiar place she hasn't been there but she knows
that it's heavily fortified and their men that will protect her little that she know
about the white walker army and the Night's King that's going to be a bit of an eye-opener
and a lot of you're asking about which personalities going to win out you know will Reek turn back
into Theon or will he be just crazy Reek for the rest of season six the shows playing it
down the middle he does seem cognizant of his life is the and he still remembers things
he remembers the on Greyjoy the book version of Reek is all crazy or but I as I think you
get to be more the same he'll be more like he was the season he will never go back to
being the fee on Greyjoy before he met Ramsey Bolton speaking of which onto Ramsey in the
Boltons what's going on with them they just kicked the ship at a Stannis's army and Ramsey
looks like he's having the time of his life killing all the survivors and a lot of people
are upset we didn't get to see the pink letter but I do think we'll see some things from
that storyline though find that Sansa is gone and I'll have to replace her so that the other
Lords of the North will still listen to the Boltons they were using Sansa to maintain
their hold on the north because the people of the North were loyal to the Starks and
as long as there's a stark and Winterfell there's the promise that they will do whatever
the Boltons ask if like the Karstarks in the other Lords of the North were to find out
that Sansa had escaped they would probably try to track her down rallied around her and
start a new war in the north so the Boltons are gonna do everything they can to prevent
that from happening look at their army though this is a huge army what's can happen with
that will they don't start a war with the Lannisters been the probably get taken out
by the white walker Army when they move south of the wall which it is very possible that
we could see you whilst would you neutralize Jon Snow in the story that the only person
who cared about preventing the white walkers from getting south if you didn't want the
white walkers to get south so the Boltons and their army aren't just like going to sit around in Winterfell
all year next year there will probably be some conflict with either Kings Landing or
some of the other Lords of the North. Don't forget about Littlefinger either he's probably
gonna try and take advantage of that situation in the north, remember he wants control.
Moving down to Kings Landing. So we have to talk about Cersei versus the Faith. We met Robert Strong
who is the zombie Mountain, he's the Mountain that's been lying on Qyburn's table all year.
In the books it's implied that he doesn't have a head so I was a little disappointed to see
that he very clearly had a head on the show but I can understand why they did it that
way for practical reasons. There's still a couple of things from the books that they have not passed
yet and I think that one of those will be this Cersei plot if you have are the books
you probably know what I'm talking about just please you spoiled tags if you're going to
talk about it but think about it is being a slight twist of Tyrion's trial last season
it'll be almost the exact same thing just you know flipped on its head I think the real
surprise is who Robert Strong is going to end up fighting and no I'm not expecting Clegane
bowl but onto Jamie and Myrcella. So the last we saw them it looked like Myrcella was gonna
die. She could survive. She's still alive in the books she just gets maimed. What is Jamie
going to do about it though? Trystane is on that boat so I mean he's probably not going
to kill him because he doesn't want to start a war with Dorne this is one of those things
that could drive Jamie over the edge he was trying to be like the good dad that's the
whole reason he went to Dorne. They are filming in Dorne next year so we will get more of the
Sand Snakes and Doran Martell but I don't think they're going to turn that boat around. I sure
do hope Qyburn has some medicine for that poison! Would it not be ridiculous to see like zombie
Myrcella? Like Qyburn raises her just like he raised the mountain. "She will be changed
sir!" Moving over to the east though, what about Daenerys and that Khalasar? Very clearly there are a couple
of things that have to happen. She's gonna have to win over the new Khal, she might even have to
get married to him so it'll be like a twist on what happened in season one where she married Khal Drogo.
Two: she could win them over with Drogon after he recovers but I don't think that's
going to be happening in the first or second episodes. I fully expect as is the tradition
with game of thrones that season six episode one will pick up immediately after the finale
leaves off it looks like Drogon could be out of commission for at least a couple of episodes,
long enough for Jorah and Daario to find her and for the three of them to try and figure something out,
but yes I do think that she will add those Dothraki soldiers to her fold eventually, over
the course of season six. She is the uniter so she is slowly uniting the east but I mean
it's a big place so she's still only just got a fraction of it. What about Tyrion and Varys
in Meereen though? I know a lot of you are asking "Is Varys the Harpy? Was he the one controlling
all those people?" It's totally possible. I mean it would be a twist but I'm not expecting it.
He'll be successful in Meereen in a way that he was not successful in Kings Landing or I should
say he was successful in Kings Landing but nobody gave him any credit for it but he won't
be beloved in the way that Daenerys is beloved people just won't shit on him as much.
They have a whole lot of whores in Meereen though, so he should be just fine while Daenarys is away.
Tyrion and Varys' scenes are always a lot of fun not quite is funny as Tyrion and Jorah
but we have Daario and Jorah so I think that's where a lot of the comedy will flow in the
eastern storyline. As much is a lot of shit goes down on the show there's always a lot of
comedy from unusual pairings like Arya and the Hound. Speaking of which onto blind Arya. So we
were basically up to Winds of Winter with Arya's storyline. She's a survivor. She will slowly
get used to being blind but I don't think any of us ever expects her to fully become
a Faceless person. She'll continue to learn more about the Many Faced God and the Faceless Men
but I think at a certain point, you know after she regains her sight, she will leave.
That might get pushed into season seven but I think that her programming, her base programming,
is Arya Stark and that list will always win out so do not be surprised if Needle makes
a reappearance sometime during season six. Onto the main event though; Jon Snow, the Wildlings,
Melisandre, everybody up at the wall. Starting with Jon Snow of course. The big conversation
here is what Kit Harrington has been saying he is sent in interviews that David Nutter
the director told him he's dead and he had a very Tony Soprano type talk with Dan and Dave about
his character dying. So what does that mean? Most likely that his character is medically
pronounced dead like his heart is beating his brain activity is slowing down but they
didn't burn the body so what's going to happen in episode one? We'll probably at least see
the body but when Kit Harrington said that he's not coming back I think the language
that he uses is very important so did the with Dan and Dave mean is that Jon Snow is
not coming back he will come back but he will be changed in the way that Lady Stoneheart
is changed from Caitlin Stark. She is not the same character when she comes back,
she's a completely new identity so think of that in terms of Jon Snow. There are a couple of tinfoil theories
about how he could've survived but I don't think he survived I think he's actually dead
so a resurrection will be required if he's not taken north of the wall and co-opted by
the White Walkers. If Kit Harrington sits out season six in the way that Bran sat out season five
it could be because someone takes his body north of the wall and we just don't
see what happens with them. What does this mean in terms of what's going on at the wall,
because Melisandre, Davos and the Nights Watch are still there, they still have a job to do,
to keep the White Walkers from getting through. I don't think they would've done this to Jon if
they did not want the Walkers to get through. We need to get to the point in season seven
when White Walkers are south of the wall and there's this giant battle in Westeros like when
there's snow coming down in Kings Landing. In order for that to happen the White Walkers
need to bring down the wall and they can't do that if you have really smart people that know
how to fight them at the wall and that was Jon Snow. The rest of the Nights Watch, like Alliser
Thorne here, they're a bunch of ass hats. They're going down like a sack of potatoes the minute the
White Walkers march on the wall. In the books, Melisandre talks about how at the wall her
power is at its greatest. The TV show changed things a little bit, she never actually went
with Stannis when he marched on Winterfell she always stayed at the wall presumably the
show sent her back to the wall so that she could deal with this Jon Snow situation and
keep this in mind too, Kit Harrington was just photographed recently in Ireland where
the cast shoots they haven't started shooting season six yet that happens in a couple months
but why would he stick around with the rest of the cast if he wasn't going to be part of
the next season? So we'll at least see his body in episode one. He could sit the season out,
like he could mysteriously disappear as someone could take his body but I do feel like he
will come back it just like everything in the book narrative points towards him being
a big figure in the War for the Dawn, the biggest thing being that at the end of the War the
white walkers were form a truce with the humans and Jon Snow will become a future Night's
King to help protect that treaty north of the wall. All just speculation, but I do think I
just I do feel like we will see the wall come down sometime before season seven is over
is just too big of a moment to not deliver on it be like this big spectacular special
effects sequence like one of those episodes that they show an IMAX. So here's my big question
for you guys. Why do you think that Kit Harrington and Dan and Dave are so adamant about Jon
Snow not coming back? Do you think it's all misdirection and that Kit Harrington will
come back as a different character? I know it might seem like things are over for like the
next nine months but I will be doing weekly bonus videos going forward so don't worry
I'll keep doing plenty Game of Thrones videos it will all be okay but I think I'm going to do
for my next bonus video is a breakdown of all the resurrections that have happened on
the show including the Red God's resurrections as well as the White Walkers' resurrections.
