trinuviel: sillyanshe: ok, I have some Feelings™ about this sequence. First things first The cinematography for this is ON POINT.

Two very interesting scenes they cut:

Oh, I just realized they cut the Ghost scene. Ha. There was a bit here where Jon came out of the Crypt and Ghost came up to the him and he petted him and said, “Take care of her, watch over her for me.” But I guess those direwolves are expensive– I guess it got cut. Ah well, Ghost is somewhere there running around.

Bryan Cogman in 7×02 commentary

I had a scene in the episode that we didn’t ever make it, we never did shoot it, it didn’t make it past the first or second draft, where Tyrion and Theon had a scene, because I thought well we should give them a scene together, two our best actors, they are here, they are in Dragonstone, they’ve  got a lot to talk about, but it ended that just being a recap of everything between, you know, and they really talk about Sansa the whole time, which is great and I but we all watched that, we all saw it, we know what happened, we and and so while it just it was sort of dramatically and nerd, you know as satisfying as it would be to see Theon talk about Sansa whom with he had this really intense ahh but they both had intense kind of time with her. Ultimately you know it just felt like, ‘well then there was a time where you know we escaped from the castle’, ‘oh well yeah’, so it’s, we had to really avoid that and still have to a lot because there’s a fanservice  each thing that makes you, and you know there’s a lot of that still on the show because for dramatic purposes and for story purposes they have to talk about certain things but you got to find a way to sort pithily do it, you know and assume that all those recap conversations happened off screen.

Don’t you love that Sansa is so important in the story that even when she is not there, other people are always talking about her?

** I’m collecting all of my meta and GRRM quotes – more added soon **

Because David Benioff and DB Weiss know more than any of us, in these posts I rely on a mix of book and show evidence in an attempt to understand the larger themes of the story and the narrative from the perspective of reconstructed fantasy tropes. Since GRRM has said that he is not interested in writing an external battle against good and evil, and because he has referenced power as a corrupting force in his interviews, I believe that the show has dropped strong clues, backed by book evidence, that Dany will be the final antagonist. I also believe that Jon will marry his cousin Sansa – although this theory exists independent from the others.
