    Ok, I'm just going to say it. The Child of the Forest, in the tunnel, with the zombies, and the grenade suicide, was a little too action-movie-James-Cameron-circa-1986ish for me. And, Hodor, holds the door, but, they kill him, and then what happens? Who is there to rescue Bran? Is the dude who rides the elk going to show up? I don't know. I don't like the "Hold the door" explanation for Hodor.
    Spoiler for "HODOR", wtf:

    I would expect Hodor to become a white walker. There is a theory out there that Rickon, not Bran is the true greenseer. Bran has a whopping 200 yard (let's say) lead on a ravenous zombie army that thrives in the cold. Bran's future is kinda bleak, IMO without Benjen or Coldhands (assuming they aren't one and the same) coming to his rescue, and fast. If Bran manages a miraculous escape in this scenario without outside help, it'll be just a bit too much to swallow.

          Spoiler for "teh interwebz", sez:

          One of the theories out there is that Bran is not going to be hunted and killed by the white walkers, but rather he'll be herded back through the wall which will break the spell keeping the white walkers to the north of the wall because of the mark that he carries, just like it allowed them into the cave.

              Well, at least it was foreshadowed it would come down, but not that this would be the mechanism... It's hardly been a secret that the wall will have to be breached at some point.

              • Fire doesn't bode well with white walkers... I wonder where Jon Snow and his Sister (Danny) can get a few dragons to torch their bones.

                  Well, Dany for one is fireproof...

                        Sorry to disappoint. I have read all of the books, and I enjoy the show in a different way. I prefer the books, but I need the bad pusay.

                            Sorry to hear that. There's now a new opening under PAC.

                              Well, yeah, but I like Tyrion by Dinklage a lot. He's really breather life into the character more than I think anyone else did for me besides Sean Bean.

                                It's all I can do not to make a joke about that line.
