Can anybody shed some light on who the two groups of fighters are at the end of the Episode 3 sneak peek?
One party says "And so it begins" and the other says "now it ends".

I find what happens very unpredictable.
I really didnt see the murdering of trystane and his dad coming. I think that lessens the show because i personally dont like(not as in she is evil ,but as in the acting and looks) of the lovegirlssandsnakemother. She is annoying to me and i liked the passivekinginawheelchair vs sandsnakeswantrevenge thing they had going on. Now its just plain war of Lannisters vs Dorne
Why wouldn't be remember the huge kid with gaints' blood that he grew up with? Shit, everybody probably remembers seeing Hodor, even if just for a moment. I still remember random shit like a massive dude I saw on the buss one day years ago. When people stand out, you remember 'em... especially if you grow up with them.

Because GoT's CGI is very noticeable, often times detracts from the experience because it is, and usually looks like it belonged in a B-movie from the late 90's or early 2000's. For a series whose lack of constant magic is supposed to make the magical moments even more so, it comes off as a special effects failure (see Dany riding the dragons - my God it's horrendous).
It's unpredictable - IE, I didn't expect Doran, Trystane, and Roose to die within 2 episodes - but it's unpredictable because it comes totally out of left field and doesn't make much sense.
Contrast that with earlier unpredictable deaths: Robb and the Red Wedding, Joffrey, Tywin/Shae - the clues were all there, the perpetrators of their deaths all developed, the emphasis in the right places - and that the unpredictability comes in is a testament to how well hidden the conspiracies are. Tyrion has no idea Shae is sleeping with his dad and his dad is the whoremonger he always told his son not to be. But it was there, the context was there, you could piece it together afterwards.
Characters like Ramsey and the Sand Snakes are so one dimensional that when they do something brutal or stupid (respectively), it's kind of predictable in a nonsensical way. Walda gives birth to a newborn, trueborn son? It's no surprise Ramsey kills everyone - and the point is, it's so obvious, everyone else should have seen it. The Sand Snakes hatch a conspiracy to kidnap Myrcella and possibly harm Trystane, and then the next season both Myrcella and Trystane magically die and Jaime doesn't know what happened?

There's something wrong with the mouths of the dragons in the CGI, imo. Their teeth just look....dumb? IDK. They seem too toothy.

Also, for the rumor that was going around that Varys was a figment of Tyrion's imagination: It certainly seems like Missandei and Grey Worm were reacting/answering Varys in this episode, unless they're doing one of those things where Tyrion is saying aloud Varys's lines so that he looks a bit crazy to the two of them, but they just brush it under the rug.
Looks like I'll have to link my named example apparently.
CGI shadowbabies come to mind; looks like it came out of Dragonslayer.
I swear, sooner or later, you guys are gonna complain about the colour of the carpets...

I wonder if Jon will come back in the books, the same way he did in the TV show. I expected the red woman to somehow bring him back when I finished reading Dance. But now that it happened in the tv show I'm not so sure what to think, since it's gone completely off track.
This episode also strengthened a theory I had about Tyrion actually being a Targaryen. I wonder...
Sign, I hope Martin gets a move on. He's about as lazy as they come - almost as lazy as Rothfuss...

My thought on Arya, maybe it is not about her being "no one", but about being "everyone". I mean the faceless ones worship the Many-Faces God. And when you are everyone, you end up being no one.
Time...line? Time isn't made out of lines. It is made out of circles. That is why clocks are round. ~ Caboose
I would not say he's lazy. He is a perfectionnist though.
Somehow, I think it could happen just that way in the book. It's understated. There's no rising in the blazing funeral pyre. No salt and fire. Jon has risen. People at the Wall will wonder what happened. And the rest of the Realm wont even bother (because they never knew Jon was dead in the first place). Some will think that he's Azor Ahai (but where's his flaming sword), some will believe that the Seven sent him, some will believe whatever they want. Some wont give a sh*. I think it's in the spirit of Martin's writing.

I hope Arya will never become "no one".

One thing i didn't understand about the latest episode was how the High Sparrow and his men were freely able to surround the King and Jamie. If they wanted to they could have killed them both and left, where exactly was all of the guards and king guards?
