    Also I didn't really string together the bit about A Man having teleportation powers necessarily, just thought he was slick as fuck. I feel like he was indeed stuck in that cage but it's hard to explain given how he's simply unable to be caught no matter what the fuck else he does. How does one catch a faceless man? Perhaps he took the form of someone who was wanted for something? derp

    One more thing, I re-watched season 1 recently and I'm convinced that the undead creatures seen at the beginning - the ones you compared the run-of-the-mill zombiebros to, wuf, saying they paled in comparison - are probably another, more powerful, form of undead entirely. Probably the same fuckers who took the male newborns of that old sick fuck who banged all his daughters. Hence explaining the reaction of "holy shit you saw one of them?" when Jon Snow explains why he wants to join the wildlings.

    P.S. who is that slave girl? I don't remember her wtf

    It's well established that the white walkers are altogether different from the zombies. I mean they use fucking ice swords and are like eight feet tall.

    Well here I am thinking I was all clever and shit.

    The undead at the opening scene of season 1 though struck me as white walkers and not necessarily zombies. Wrong?

    Yes, 8 foot tall dude with long white hair and an ice sword.


    Re: the white walker ignoring Sam, I just saw that as being similar to the scene in Saving Private Ryan where the pussy translator freezes on the staircase and the german guy just walks around him to go about his business.

    Wuf, the dude ghost and Mormont killed was a wight/zombie, not a walker. The wights have blue eyes as well (references: the little girl in the opening scene, the fat dude that Jon kills, both with glowing blue eyes).

    I think the show heavily implies that he can teleport. It hinted at something like that through his swiftness when killing the dude after A Girl Told A Man When He Must Do A Thing, but it was only after he was standing on top of a cliff then appeared next to Arya seconds later that I figured it was true. Others say it's just because he's slick as fuck, which does make more sense according to the story, but the editing of the scenes belies that unless he's got like Nightcrawler speed. How else did a dude in like sixty pounds of armor/weaponry silently climb down a 20 foot cliff in like three seconds? I guess we'll find out

    Yes the Walkers and Wights are different. Not yet sure which is exactly which though. The cloaked ones from early on are Walkers, the undead that Snow burned is a Wight, it is assumed that the horde of walking zombies are Wights while Old Man Winter on horse is a Walker (uncloaked), and I'm not sure what the dude with axe who got Ghost'd is (blue eyes, I thought only Walkers had blue eyes...)

    The show tries to cram way too many plots into each episode. The book can handle that, but the show just winds up having 8 five minute piecemeal segments of each story. It's positively retarded; wugy agrees with me.
