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?

A Monumental 30-years Wait for Premier League Title is Finally Over for Liverpool

Finally, yeah finally. Liverpool, my beloved lads in Reds conquered the England. 30 years. It's been a long wait but this title run was worth the wait..... From the bottlers of 2013-14 to the one point loser of 2018-19, to the Champions of 2019-20; it's been a remarkable story I am chasing after since 2004-05 and I have seem many come and go but Liverpool's RED stuck to me and Jurgen Klopp's mentality monsters just bulldozed their way through the English Premiere League title after 30 years in such a way that it seemed it was never ever far away from our grasp. Manchester United, Manchester City, Everton, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur; look away now, guys.....this moment is ours to savour. There was a time when you laughed at us thinking how in hell Liverpool became 18 times champions of English Football bit this sweet 19th will remind you for a long, long time how we became 18-time English Champions at the first place. A huge shout-out to my man, Steven Ge...

Book Review: Unanswered

'Unanswered' is a book penned by Mr. Kunal Uniyal and it's his third book. I am calling it a book, using a common noun to describe it and I have a good enough reason for doing so. It's a book that consists off both poems and prose and I was in real dilemma picturing its prognosis in my mind. It started with a poem named 'You and I' and beautiful it was, all poised and lyrical. And then came a snippet of a prose by the name 'Life of a Yogi'. They were really not connected and I was perplexed. Then I allowed myself some comfort and decided to dig up some more. Some more beautiful poems and accompanying yet again not quite related passages of prose followed but now they looked more in shape and very much in order. Now I was beginning to realize that there was more to this book than met my eyes earlier and it's scope is much wider that what I originally thought. You are required to engage yourself with this book and once you do that, you will know you ar...

Racing Extinction (2015) : A Commentary

It's really hard to switch on to a different language from the one you have constantly been tinkering with. I grew so accustomed to writing in Hindi in last few days that it started dawning on me that I might never be good again with my English. So this is a tester, ladies and gentlemen. Yesterday, one of my movie group friends, an American by nationality, questioned my fondness of documentaries. I specifically wrote in one of my columns that documentaries demand your unwavering attention and once you gave 'that' to them, you are rewarded much more handsomely than a proper, narrative, fictitious film. My reasoning for believing so is that a documentary is an experience of a creative process. It doesn't get made to 'entertain' you. They are there to reveal something to you. They teach you something. You get overwhelmed by them. 'Racing Extinction (2015)' was one such documentary. I watched it in last couple of days. I couldn't complete it in one ...
