"The Game of Thrones Season 5 premiere gave us so many good scenes that it's next to impossible to pick our favorites. The episode was a fantastic starting point which the rest of the season can confidently build on, and now that we've seen the episode, it's time to inspect, critique, and break down every minute detail.

Thanks to some technical issues that certainly have nothing to do with infected torrents, I wasn't able to make all the GIFs in this recap myself. But, thanks to Fansided's own GIF master, Zombieprophet, I was able to cobble the rest together. This is your Game of Thrones GIF recap.

We start things off with a flashback of young Cersei, who was perfectly cast, visiting the fortuneteller Maggy the Frog. Including a flashback was a bold move by the producers that paid off. Maggy the Frog was a bit too pretty for my tastes (my book purist side kicking in here, apologies), but the scene was moody and effective. She may not have been hideous, but anyone who sucks the blood out of a cut on a young girl's thumb with this kind of relish can't help but be a bit scary…"

John!… Meeren and the other cities Kaleese visit/reign are in North AFrica?. Now we know that Spain is the next place to see (don't remember the name of the Kingdom there, but is Spain without doubt).

Another question. She has lost her power with the dragoons?
Ir it's because her treason to them?

Her lover existed in the book?

Can John Snow ended as King with her as Queen?

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

Perhaps if she`s lost her power with The Dragoons then the `Catherine The Great` approach might work?

First you have to remember that half of Season 5 is not covered by the books.
Interestingly, the showrunners have said that the very first scene of Season 5 is in the books, and so is the very last.
I can guess what the very last scene is. grin
But I'm not going to tell!

Yes, Danaerys took what's his name for her lover in the books.
She has her needs after all, and she is just USING HIM!!!!!
Use me, use me, use me…

A favorite fan theory is R + L = J.

In other words, the mother of Jon is Lyanna Stark (Ned's sister) and the father is Rhaegar Targaryen. So, unlike what Robert First of His Name thinks, he did not kidnap and rape her. She ran off with him. (Read the damn books…)
This is barely covered in the HBO series at all, which I find to be one of its crucial failures.

So…
Jon is Dany's nephew. Since the Targs practice incest (and another theory is that Cersei and Jaime are really the children of the Mad King and not Tywin…)

Anyway, Jon and Dany can "marry" and jointly rule. Or not.

DO NOT ASK ME HOW HE CAN BE RELEASED FROM HIS VOWS!!! Read the damn books, or wait for what I think will be the last scene of Season 5.

If fan theories are correct, the Mad King Rhaegar Targ… knocked up the parents of half the characters in Game of Thrones. Including Tyrion. Probably not Hodor…

MANY thanks my friend!! (smile)
Yes, I have to bought and read the books, but I'm lazy in that aspect.
I know I always count with my dear guide (smile)

Now I'm thinking that some of the cities can be Italy! (smile).The south of course!.

Poor Hodor!. Who can be his father? (smile)

Like to see that one of the medics of Star Trek became an important personage. He always plays a good Muslim guy.

That Rhaegar Targarian was a busy man!! (smile)

Pardon me. The MAd King was Aegon, not Rhaegar.

Still a busy man in the bed…! (smile)
