On the plus side after the war dragons are going to be an essential extra at barbecues.
Daenerys can pretty much corner the market and make a bloody fortune as people will love having a dragon at a party.

Good fan-wankery :)

I just thought it was committed to his craft. They editted him out of the episode (4.30) :(

Jamie's motivation for charging Drogon/Dany?

Ive heard a few comments on FB and on Thronecast that it was a suicidal charge where he knew he'd die but it would be a heroic death and an escape from the trapped life he's found himself in.

Personally I think he's traumatised and outraged at the use of the dragon and the death of his men. He wants to kill her for unleashing it. At that moment he is just acting on instinct and that instinct is revenge and retribution.

Unless you are Bronn or Jamie and then you are fine

I enjoyed that epi. Although Bran can jut go fall out of another window, he's so strawberry floating boring. His storyline has been gooseberry fool since the first episode.

He saw Dany's father burn people alive and eventually killed him for it so after seeing her do the same he thinks she's yet another crazy Targaryan despot who needs to die.

Its the same reason I think he'll kill Cersei, she's already responsible for the deaths of several thousand people and is rapidly getting into Mad King levels of tyranny.

More like he hadn't seen her before, there she was, I can kill her right now and end this.

Yeah. The simplest explanation makes the most sense.

Jamie seems to be quite pragmatic so Ad7s explanation seems the most likely

Saw a reddit theory post on about Jaime Lannister being the "Prince that was promised". Sounds plausible and quite satisfying as the story goes but it's just fan speculation at this stage.

Meanwhile someone I know in real life has read the scripts that have leaked so they're on mute for the next 2.5 weeks.

I hope he is. He's one of my favourites due to the whole character 180 he does.

A few of my current favourite theories are:

Melisandre is at least 400 years old and was somehow involved in the doom of Valeria.

Longclaw is actually a reforged Lightbringer and Jon is Azor Ahai reborn.

The white walkers don't need to get over or destroy the wall as there's a bridge to the west of it which completely bypasses it.

The dagger Bran gave to Arya is of massive importance as it was seen in a book Sam was reading in the citadel library.

Some of the theories you posted were ok, but how the strawberry float would nobody have noticed that? :lol:
