Game of Thrones Season 6: Theories of an Indian Fan

Presenting my theories and gumptions after GoT Season 6 premiere on upcoming course of actions:

1) Jon Snow is not 'really' dead. No network producer in USA likes to pay a dead corpse for appearing in almost all the episodes of its flagship show, the least of them all, HBO.

2) Stannis Baratheon doesn't look dead as well. Wait, we have seen enough deaths of class 1 characters of GoT, so why won't it allow us to see the actual and not 'unseen' beheading of Stannis. Besides, Stannis indeed is the only true-blood Baratheon left in the show and appears a real, lost, ambiguous yet passionate character. And Brinne, well ain't she lovely? As much as she was loyal to Renly, she ain't really a great killer. Remember the Lannister episode?

3) Melissandre, the red priestess and headliner of first episode of GoT S06 is not a prophet but a witch. We know and have seen the actions of deviant religious characters in real lives, like those whom Joan of Arc fought in 13th century (check the date) and thus lynching of Shireen Baratheon was one ugliest incident which showed us the glimpses of degenerating mind of Melissandre. Many skeptics of GoT cried out loud when Sansa Stark was allegedly brutally raped by Ramsay Bolton but the scene became a real diabolical one for Ramsay asked Theon Grevjoy to stay in the room. Theon has known Sansa real well and his mental bruises leaked pools of blood while seeing Ramsay unleashing his snobbery of worst kind on Sansa. We have seen such type of incidents being portrayed on Silver Screen and many of arguably have been more cruel than this particular episode but when a righteous character as noble as a 14 year old Shireen who loved her father dearly got burnt alive, no dispassionate or passionate fan shrieked even a fake wail, let alone tearing their eyes.

4) WhiteWalkers are sitting just beyond the wall and episode 8 of season 5 proved that they are the mightiest of them all. In episode 3 or 4 this season, another war is going to be unleashed. Why won't they like to sit idle when they very well know they could conquer the world that easily? And guess, who is going to resist them? Well, who else than the 'undead' Jon Snow with his 'made of Valyrian steel' sellsword?

5) Ser Jorah Mormont, infected with Greyscale disease, is going to die this season. You pretty much know that, don't you? Well, after seeing his beloved Khaleesi well off those barbaric Dothrakis.

Anybody like to add something to them?

Love and Friendship

Friendship is an aspect of life that’s not controlled by its beholders. Ideal friendships, well they are the things of past now. Many a times we have seen our parents or their parents talking about their old great friends and how amusingly they tell us about their bonding, the moments they spent together and we see a ‘priceless’ twinkle in their eyes…..that’s something which is missing from modern friendships. There are terms & phrases like ‘yaar tu to apna bhai hai’, ‘yaar tu to ghar ka aadmi hai’ which even today invoke something very beautiful inside our hearts but we all know that the feelings underneath them are ‘hollow’, they are just mere words, ‘emotionless’ and ‘impassive’. Well who am I to comment on such an indefinable ‘qualitative’ perspective? I’m one of you, those wretched creatures that are still in need of true, great friendships. Well I certainly can’t say that I haven’t got friends. I’ve got friends, plenty of them in fact, and some of them are real great. I s...

P.S. Hoffman & Joaquin Phoenix: The Master

My infatuation with the movies is well known but my involvement with the actors and their characters is even more heartwarming. There are innumerable movies that I saw simply because they featured my favorite actors, however they themselves were not great. Examples could be infinite, however for the sake of this article I'll have to produce something here. Anger Management for Jack Nicholson (boy, isn't he a legend?), Swing Vote for Kevin Costner, Snatch for Brad Pitt, Legends of the Fall (Brad Pitt), Leon: The Professional, Immortal Beloved, Bram Stroker's Dracula, State of Grace & Prick up your ears; all for Gary Oldman (mind you, he is a chameleon). Meanwhile, I started accumulating some of the finest performances by some of the legendary actors of all time. Very recently, as anyone who follows me regularly knows, I grew very much fond of the craft and artistry of Daniel Day-Lewis. He is a fine, fine actor whose study and impersonation of a character is often pictur...

Book Review - Colourful Notions:The Roadtrippers 1.0

Soul-searching (or at least an effort to do that) has become the new go-to objective of our millennial directors and writers who try to weave a narrative involving some characters that are confused at most of the things that do and thus are 'ordinary' by greats' standards. They look out for an answer, of all the troubles they are having in their lives and thus look out for an endeavor which if not provides a satisfactory solution to their troubles, at least give them a respite for a short while from their unremarkable lives. Hollywood and Europeans are working on this issue from 90s and they visited the orientals as well in search of their lost inner-selves. They might think that they are closing in on a solution but what about the developing Asians? They are catching up fast with 'well-developed' (but ever-so-confusing) Americans and Europeans and thus are getting the headaches and 'made-up' problem of their owns. Well, the author of this book, Mr. Mohit G...
