Syrio kicking all sorts of Lannister guard ass with a wooden sword. How many did he hold off in the books? 7? Going to be epic.
Also, hopefully Tyrion tells the story about his first wife.
Robb's bannermen next episode then? I am excited to see the Greatjon and the Karstarks and Roose Bolton.
I'm not sure if we'll be seeing Roose this season; I certainly can't find any casting information about him. We will be seeing The Greatjon though, being played by Clive Mantle (AKA Little John in Robin of Sherwood. Which is aces.

Don't forget
House Manderly who I believe are described as the "fattest men ever seen" and they have huge walrus mustaches.
Also Bale, any of those things you listed would make for a great episode. The chance that they might all be in the next episode is giving me a huge nerdboner.

I have not seen Robert of Sherwood, so I watched that youtube clip and as soon he appeared from behind the tree like BAM, I thought "Oh yeah. That's a Greatjon right there." Which is good, because for a horrible moment I thought it was going to be the guy from Prince of Thieves who looks like an Ewok.
But yeah, I'm really looking forward to the whole "King in the North" plot and everything leading up to it. And more Tywin.
You know, when I read Storm of Swords again recently
Book 3:
I completely forgot about Stannis rocking up at the Wall. I remembered Jon getting elected and I remember the wildling attack but I completely forgot about Stannis. You'd think I'd remember something as important as the location of one of the kings.
To be fair, there are like 10,000 Kings at any given time, so losing track of one is no big thing.
I would talk about it with my coworkers the next day.
"So they were dead the whole time?"

Looking back on Episode 7, it's probably my favorite so far. And I think that could be because it deviates from the books as much as it follows the books:
Jaime and Tywin - not in the books at all, should be Tyrion an Kevan, and Tywin's dialog and motivations change quite a bit
Cersei and Ned - should take place in the evening I'm pretty sure
Littlefinger and Whores - not in the books, put in for Requisite Titty Count (but really, littlefinger wouldn't have ever blabbed like that)
Theon and Osha - not in the books, but nice to see Theon getting put in his place
Jon and Sam seeing the horse - not in the books
Ned and Robert, dying- pretty much directly from the books, but Joff wasn't there
Dany and Drogo - I don't think they have this conversation quite at this point
Jorah and Dany at the winesellers - pretty close to the book
Boys taking their vows from Mormont - pretty sure this takes place indoors, maester aemon isn't the commander of the stewards
Renly and Ned - pretty much from the books, except Renly doesn't mention he wants to be king
Littlefinger and Ned - directly from the books, although the dagger does a good deal more spinning
Sam and Jon taking vows - I think this was at night again, and that there was only one or two other rangers there from what I remember, and obviously they find the cache of dragon glass, not the hand
Drogo deciding to take over the Seven Kingdoms
Confrontation at the throne room - directly from the books

This one was actually pretty close to the book. Ghost finds the hand and leads them to the 2 corpses.
The dragon glass cache discovery happens much later on the expedition beyond the wall.
Every role he's in, he's a traitor or a fraud or something, and/or gets killed off/written out in the early going. Even when he starts out as the nominal lead.

doesn't the hand come from after being cut off one of the zombie rangers?

Nope but that does happen too.
Ghost brings back the hand, and when Jon makes Ghost show him where he got it they find the bodies of Othor and Jafar Flowers.
The dragonglass cache is at the Fist of the First Men

goddammit
Also, hopefully Tyrion tells the story about his first wife.
The actress who plays Sansa and her family adopted Lady after production was finished.
That story never fails to make me smile.
Surely you mean
each and every last one of them

Kudos to the writers.
you're wrong about like half this

jofffaces are so much better than jackfaces
Fine. But I think the new forum software should allow [thpoilerth][/thpoilerth] tags.

Also, Balefuego is right.
