Also, also: If witch could produce a demon to kill Stannises (sesess?) brother what happend with her powers? Why did Stannis failed so miserably?

Also, also, also: TINY, REALLY SMALL SPOILER ALERT!!!!

Haters gonna hate...

There is speculation Stannis failed because he is not the real true king and that Jon Snow actually is.

What an anti-climactic end to Stannis. Guess that's what this show is all about.

Fans React to That Major Death from Game of Thrones’ Final Scene

he'll be brought back to life by someone with special powers...

 

[westkyle]

Yeah, Melisandre will bring him back to life. Jon Snow is what Stannis was supposed to be. Long Claw is probably the real Light Bringer(Stannis's sword was not it, it did not produce heat to the touch). Just speculation though..

What a waste of a season. Some "big' moments but nothing really happened. Boltons still at winterfell, lannisters still in Kings Landing, Daenrys still doing wtf she does, Arya still in Baavos, lame lame lame.

Such a lame season. I am disappoint. I hate when great shows start off with wonderful seasons only to dwindle away into obscurity and bullshit... Oh well... Time to start another show.

Game of Thrones, you're dead to me.

 

[specsaregood]

All you people that think Snow or Stannis is still alive are delusional. The author kills people off. He's that retarded cousin from the dwarfs story. They are dead; deal with it.

Kit Harrington said he is not going to be in the show next year, for whatever that's worth.

Part of it is because the show has caught up with the books. I thought it was a decent season. I remember the writer saying some of the characters wouldn't have much to do this season. It was worth it for "Hardhome"... Which probably should have been the season finale.

That's not what I heard.

I was talking to Dan Weiss and he said Jon is really dead. But George R.R. Martin left open the possibility the character might not be dead in the books. And then that cast salary contract story came out last year and it had your name among those receiving raises for season six and an option on a seventh. So let me ask you: Is Jon really dead?
This is my understanding of it. I had a sit-down with Dan and David, we did the Tony Soprano walk [letting an actor know they’re being whacked]. And they said, “Look, you’re gone, it’s done.” And as far as the salary thing goes, that angered me when that story came out. I don’t know where it came from, but it was inaccurate in many ways. It’s going to put questions into your head and into fans’ heads that things are not what they are. Quite honestly, I have never been told the future of things in this show, but this is the one time I have. They sat me down and said, “This is how it is.” If anything in the future is not like that, then I don’t know about it – it’s only in David and Dan and George’s heads. But I’ve been told I’m dead. I’m dead. I’m not coming back next season. So that’s all I can tell you, really.

The actor may not be appearing next season, and his character may even technically be dead. This is a fantasy story, though, so none of that really means shit.

After abandoning Stannis, Melissandre had no reason to return to the Wall - unless it was to get her hooks into Jon. One way or another, he'll be back ...

And the books did exactly the same kind of thing. In two of the books, only some of the major characters ever appeared, while others did not (Tyrion wasn't in one of the books, Jon wasn't in one of the books, etc.). There was just so much going and so many storylines that Martin separated them into two books. And I'm talking about two fat 1000+ page books ...

They've got several storylines they can pursue next season that were never touched upon at all this season. Asha & Euron Greyjoy (and the rest of the ironborn), Gendry Storm (Robert Baratheon's bastard), Lady Stoneheart (i.e. undead Catelyn Stark) and the Brotherhood without Banners.

Hell, maybe even the Hound will be back (I'm not so sure he's "really" dead, either) ...

ETA: And speaking of undead Catelyn Stark - recall that it was Thoros of Myr who "bought her back" from the dead.
Thoros worships R'hllor, a.k.a. "the Lord of Light" - the same god Melissandre follows.
Thoros fished Catelyn's body out of a river several days after she had died.
At worst, Jon is only very "freshly" dead - and Melissandre is a lot more potent & powerful than Thoros ...

And recall that in the tv show story line none of that happened (that we know of). There is no undead lady stark.

By the same token, we don't know that it didn't happen, either. My point was that it has been established that it is possible in the world of Westeros for clerics of R'hllor to raise people from the dead. Whether the TV show ever explicitly incorporates the "Lady Stoneheart" storyline as a particular illustration of that possibility is irrelevant to this fact.

Thus, there is no compelling reason to think that Melissandre can't bring Jon back. And that's assuming that he is even dead in the first place (something which has NOT been established, in either the books or the TV show).

And as far as the actor not being contracted for next season, this could, if true, indicate that the Wall won't be part of next season's storyline, or that any next-season scenes at the Wall involving not-dead Jon have already been filmed during production of the just-concluded season.

Case in point, we just had an entire season with absolutely nothing on Bran Stark.

So where did Dany end up? I thought it may have been Valyria, or whatever that place was where the stone men were jumping into the water. But then all those guys came over the hill, they looked like Dothraki. Maybe they still recognize her as their queen.

Those are indeed Dothraki.
She ended up well north of Meereen, just on the southern edge of the Dothraki steppes.
Valyria is even further in the opposite direction (south-west of Meereen).

You can see the paths of various GoT characters over the course of the story plotted out on an interactive map here: http://quartermaester.info/

According to that, Dany has nearly gone in a big circle ...

 

[Leaning Libertarian]

Did I miss something? not too sure on the names, but I thought the two younger Stark brothers (one had fallen and became paralyzed) successfully fled the Theon Greyjoy siege on Winterfell and were being taken to the wall by some giant oaf looking guy that only said "Ordorf." Sure has taken them a season or so to get there.
