And, also if Bran has that power to warg into people in the past, then why not change all of history or make an army of door holders. Warg into the tree children and change everything from happening.
Well I don't think he can go to the past anymore since the weirtreedude got killed. Maybe he could only warg Hodor in the past because the grown up Hodor was in the front of him and he warged adult Hodor first to get them out of the cave. He's warg powers are barely developing.
I'm not sure he's exactly warging into the past. It's more like time to him is one thing to him so like he's seeing the future and the past at the very same time since he's able to travel throughout time. The Raven and Bran were both reacting to the present while being in the past. I don't know if any of that makes sense but there you go...time travel stuff is always tricky. Also, I doubt the children could be warged into. One little note that is missed is that they are the ones who carve the faces into those trees. They basically created the religion of the North. I'm sure they have made some kind of ward to prevent being warged into, same for the White Walkers.
But the show is driving the ship now. It has reached more people than the books did in a much shorter period of time. It would be one thing if they just changed the entire scope/plot of the book... But there is no more books to go by, only the show.
It is possible to point out something quirky about the show without hating the show...... Even good shows can have oddities that can be discussed. That's what forums are for.
so north of the wall...(outside of "hold the door") Spoiler 1) Does Winter become a white walker? 2) Coldhands to the rescue? other thing that struck me as interesting...hey Brienne...head to Riverrun Spoiler LSH??
Is Hodor a character in the book or he was made for the show? If he existed in the book, was his story line pretty similar? Does this mean all the CoF are dead?
Not true. Not only do TV viewers have the opening credits to go off of, but a ton have checked out the fairly popular HBO interactive map out of sheer curiosity about the world they're watching. And book readers have seen so many of GRRM's intricately detailed maps of Westeros and Essos over the years that we instinctively know where every location is relative to one another and the distances between them without even having to think about it. (you can see an incredibly well done book oriented map with spoilers control here. It even includes the paths each character has traveled for the entirety of the story) I don't think most of us reacted like the guy in those tweets though. Most were either like "Damn, they're traveling ridiculously fast, but I'll go with it for the sake of time," or, "Wow, they must be really skipping forward in time to account for these long trips." I have to admit, it was a little jarring seeing a character go from The Vale to The Wall in 1 episode (especially when having to carefully sneak through everything north of Moat Cailin).
My interpretation of this show...Dungeons and Dragons on acid. This is some of the most outlandish sh_t ever seen on television.
