    Agree. I've "bought into" GOT theories that involve a return of Jon Snow. But I wouldn't put it past GRRM to have killed Jon Snow for good. Those theories involve Jon Snow not being part of the Night Watch; one can only be released from those vows by death. Since his Nights Watch brothers killed him, it would seem a "resurrected" Jon Snow would be free from those vows.

      I think Jon Snow will be back, but saying that there is "no chance" that he won't be back is inconsistent with the series.

        I assume you're a book reader but maybe not. Without getting into it, is there GOT precedent for "resurrection" outside of white walker stuff?

              There's a reason why Melisandre rode her horse into camp. I don't really have all the different religions of the series nailed down, but she's also a follower of the "Lord of Light."
              Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                I'm not a book reader. But it was mentioned that Beric Dondarrion has been brought back to life several times (6?) by Thoros a priest of the Lord of Light. One of his deaths was by the hand of the Lannisters who couldn't decide whether to hang him or put a dagger through his eye so they did both. Beric still has scars from that execution. I doubt Thoros was standing by to immediately revive Beric after Lannister soldiers had executed him so it would seem immediate intervention is not necessary but there has to be some limitations since Thoros didn't answer Arya when she asked him if he could revive someone who had been beheaded (in reference to Ned Stark).

                Melisandre is a priestess of the Lord of Light. I don't think she deserted Stannis on the eve of battle at Winterfell as much as she felt the need to return to Castle Black and Jon Snow. Maybe she realized she misinterpreted things she saw when she looked into the flames.

                  That's also true. And she has a major chub for royal blood, which was apparently plentiful here. The plot thickens...

                    But that was Lena Headey's face pasted onto some other woman's body. You just have to look repeatedly and closely.

                    The sequence took three grueling days to shoot, and while Headey might not have been naked herself during all the shots (a body double was used), she still had to pass through the hostile jeering mud-slinging crowd over and over again, trying to silently convey a progressive journey of complex emotions as Cersei reaches her lowest point—then ultimately finds a spark of strength as she’s lifted up by her resurrected savior, The Mountain.
                    I was a little disappointed in the boobs so it's good to know it was a double.

                            • Spoiler for Speculation about Jon Snow's identity and maybe a twin:
                              Anyone heard about this theory that Jon Snow and Meera Reed are twins of Rhaegar and Lyanna Stark? People are saying that since Howland Reed and Ned Stark supposedly rescued her from some tower when she was dying after giving birth, it seems like the legend of Romulus and Remus, and they were protected by a wolf after that. Anyway, that might be cool.

                              • I've watched a few more episodes (it was that damned Daenerys Targaryen that hooked me). The one thing I can't understand is (being the Mormon that I am) is why don't these people wear underwear? Every sex scene has a mandatory rushed disrobing of medieval style clothing (i.e. tons of stupid lacing that just frustrates everyone) but they're all going commando! I mean, I get that it's fantasy but seriously, in what dimension does EVERYONE go commando? (cue Clack)
