First off let’s give a handclap emoji to James Vincent McMarrow for his cover of Wicked Game and for the music supervisor who chose a song with this play on words, cause as we know, “in the game of thrones you either win or you die.” Another handclap emoji to the GoT crew for cramming SO MUCH stuff into this trailer. I’ve watched it a billion times between yesterday and today and have seen something new every time. So let’s get to my predictions.
Jon Snow – is he or isn’t he?

While everyone wants us to believe Jon Snow is dead I say one of two options will happen:
1. Jon has warg-ed into Ghost / Someone Else
Source
We know (or at least book readers know) that Jon has some Warg tendencies and might perhaps be able to fully assume someone else’s body a la the powers that Bran has. A Warg is someone who can enter into an animal or human and assume their bodies and actions. Because his ability to warg has been hinted at and because Bran (and possibly other Stark family) had this ability, Jon might have warg-ed as he was being killed. The most likely option would be Ghost his direwolf though he hasn’t been seen in some time BUT this could explain why Ghost is seen near Jon’s body in the trailer.
2. Jon will be brought back to life by Melisandre a la Thoros of Myr via the Lord of Light
Source
We see that Melisandre has finally (we think) gotten her comeuppance for not only leading men into battle only to be slaughtered but for you, killing a little girl. But whatever. It can be no coincidence that Melisandre and Ser Davos appear back at Castle Black just in time for Jon Snow to be killed. If Jon has not assumed another body as a warg that my guess would be that Jon is brought back to life via Melisandre and that would explain why Kit Harrington has been seen all over the set of Game of Thrones.
I Choose Violence

Clearly, Cersei’s time in prison, hair cut and subsequent NAKED walk of shame has taught her nothing or has shown her that she truly has no fucks to give and will go down swinging no matter the cost.
Occupy Westeros

“Everyone of us is poor and powerless and yet we can overthrow an empire.” Clearly, The High Sparrow and Cersei’s old fling (and cousin!) Lancel Lannister are voting for Bernie Sanders in November but will they team up (in secret?) with Margery Tyrel? I can only assume this is what will happen, Margery is a smart girl and her grandma taught her when the going gets tough (and throws you in jail) the tough start begging for mercy from The High Sparrow. Also, Lancel is about to get his cute face rearranged by the reanimated Mountain.
Ned Stark?!
Wait excuse me???

Tower of Joy storyline confirmed! If you want a big ‘ol conspiracy theory spoiler, then Google “Tower of Joy.” Prepare to have your mind blown.
Bran’s Back!
My reaction
We’ve reached five and I haven’t even touched some of the main characters like Tyrion, Dany and Arya because that trailer was all kinds of vague. Needless to say, they will all be fine and probably kick ass because that’s what they do when the chips are down or… jk, there’s never a moment when the chips aren’t down and the shit has not hit the fan.
