Yeah it looks absurd.
I bet that's the same scene as Davos at :52.
Stark banners, Sansa with direwolf sigil.

Yup this looks fucking AWESOME. (quoted post and my comment are both Sansa trailer spoilers FYI)
I hesitate to say it but..
.if she's at the head of an army that tears through the Boltons, will S5 have been worth it
gimme some sweet Stark vengeance.
I think it could be. What initially looked like a
Kingsguard helmet on the figure on the right (Aerys?), also looks like it could be a high collar and a crown on his head. That leaves the figure on the left (Jaime) helmetless as he usually is anyway.
I thought it was someone wearing a crown. So possibly King Tommen?

Hoyl fuck that second trailer got me so damn hyped
Ok, gonna go a little tinfoil here, but I really can't think of any reason to show that particular scene it's already well established what happened thereunless... they maybe need to establish that Aerys' wildfire doomsday device is still in place?

NeoGiff's going to have some more gif material this season methinks.
Trailer spoiler/screenshot.
I mean, look at
fucking helmet. I love that they'll inject some humor into what is probably a pretty fucking serious scene.

I mean, look at
Mace's
haha, I was wondering who that was

My money is that's it's someone stabbing Ser Robert Strong... then quickly realising he's a demon zombie monster.
I'd say no, given that they already had 4 seasons of material to work with and just chucked the rape in to 'raise the stakes' for her. They had no intention of 'exploring' rape as a theme beyond get raped > get over it and be a badass.

Also, yay on Riverun coming back into the story, though I worry it's just because the Frey's are there, rather than the reappearance of the MUDDAFOOKIN BLACKFISH

You know who's conspicuously missing from this trailer?

I REALLY think Ramsay's going to kill him.

Gotta agree. Between the trailers and promo shots so far, I think we have one single shot of him? He's going to do something to send Ramsay into a rage. Maybe chew Ramsay out over the Sansa debacle and disinherit him.

LOL that's incredible
Top stuff right here. That trailer was hype.

Pulled this theory from Reddit about Brienne, Sansa, etc. and fffffffff....
This would be crazy, but if I had to guess
Sansa sends Brienne south because Brienne tells her that's where she last saw Arya. I think it's way more likely Sansa learns Arya is alive and wants Brienne to redouble efforts to find her than Sansa dreaming up a murder scheme for Frey.

A website that correctly broke some season 5 episode titles is saying 602 is "Home" and 603 is "Oathbreaker"
Yeah, that seems more likely.
Also,
Sansa would be the Princess Regent, not the Queen, so long as Bran and Rickon are out there -- which she's now aware of.
That would be good, and would match the equivalent events in the books. The only major difference is the role switch between Sansa and Stoneheart. Considering S5's shoddy treatment of Sansa, it seems they're giving her Stoneheart's ruthlessness.
Agreed. Hardhome was good but it was more focused on the action and set-pieces. The general story over S5 was shoddy and illogical. I don't know if they can truly recover from it.

Care to explain those titles to me? I haven't read the books in years and my memory is foggy about the titles sometimes

No real significance to them, though 'Oathbreaker' would be a twist on 'Oathkeeper'- which is the name of Brienne's sword (given to her by Jaime) and was the name of an episode in season 4.
'Home' could mean anything this early in the season.
What did Davos say in the trailer?
"The poor boy is between life and death". What poor boy? it's obviously not Jon. Olly? Rickon?

ahhh right. I thought that Oathbreaker may have been about that but I wasn't sure. Perhaps it's related to the scene in the trailer showing the
Red wedding 2.0

We no longer have a book roadmap, so pretty tough to say before we see the episodes.

What is that on the Night King's back? A horn?

No .. at 1:10 he says "The little boy is between life and death". I have also been wondering who is he referring to. I thought maybe Bran.. or maybe the person he is talking to referred to Jon Snow as a little boy so he replies that way.
EDIT: Ah nevermind.
I guess he said "Real War". Not "little boy".

The real war is between the living and the dead. Listen to it again.

He's saying "the real war is between the living and the dead", not "the little boy is between life and death".
Nah, it's his spear thing that you could see in the prosthetics video. No horn.

May contain jokes =>
Oathbreaker could also refer to Jon's resurrection and sort of/not really breaking his oath after his death.
Makes sense. Guessing also that Bronn is with Jaime and maybe that's who grabs Pod around the neck.

of course she will save jaime, I like that theory. bronn might not make it, though

Good shit.
Maybe she recruits Jaime and Bronn to the Suikoden team Jon is building of him, Davis, Mel, Sansa and Brienne.

Northern theory time.
The Boltons as a threat in the North will be done by the end of season 6. The major houses, along with Jon & the Wildlings will turn their focus to the White Walkers in season 7 as the Wall will fall at the end of S6.
Sansa will take up residence in Winterfell with Littlefinger as her 'hand' (perhaps even another marriage to keep him close) along with a collection of other Lords from the Northern Houses. Season 7 will play out the second half of the Winterfell ADWD storyline, with Littlefinger playing the Boltons, and he'll be dead by the end of S7.
