Fan Theories Four

Westeros was artificially (or magically) created by raising land from the ocean.

It could even be alive in some fashion, hence the God's Eye is an actual eye. This explains why Westeros wasn't colonised by humans much earlier (or conquered by the Valyrians) as it just didn't exist apart from a few islands. If this is the case, the raising of Westeros dates after the building of Dragonstone.

Cersei and Jamie are Targaryns. There is a theory that Tyrion's father was Aerys, but what if Aerys was actually Cersei's father?

This makes sense if she knows this and also if Aerys and Tywin suspected this. It also explains her irrational hatred for Robert (and Tyrion to a lesser extent) and why Jamie was named to the Kingsguard.

Cersei and Jamie are still Lannisters because their mother was Tywin's cousin.

Interestingly, Joffrey also refers to himself as a dragon.

Westeros 2

One thing which bothers me about ASOIAF/GOT  is the height of the Wall and the fact that people have been able to cross over it. Not just stone-age Wildlings but that the (supposedly under-manned and under-funded) Night’s Watch were not only able to get to the top of the Wall but actually place defences on the top!  The Wall is actually so high that people would get blown off by the wind on a regular basis! It is established in the books that the Wall (which is 700 feet high and 300 miles long) protects itself, so perhaps this is more of a plot hole. OK, so let's imagine that the Wall is, actually (more like) 300 feet high and 150 miles long, while some parts of it have fallen down. At these parts the Night's Watch have their fortifications. Specifically Castle Black, Mole's Fort which basically contains a trebuchet and Eastwatch, where the Wall is a consistent 200 feet high and extends 60 feet into the Narrow Sea  There are a number of abandoned castles on the W...

Fan Theories

Family Guy is really set in Hell! Specifically one of the Hells in the  Culture  novel "Surface Detail". The television programme "American Dad!" is also set in one of these Hells, but different to the one Family Guy is set in. Think about it. The characters never age and most would end up institutionalised if they lived in a normal society. It also, perhaps, makes sense that the creators of these Hells would consider early twentieth century North America, Earth, a suitable place to set these Hells. In Surface Detail the Hells are terrible places where the downloaded  personalities of the dead are maintained. It's denizens are routinely raped by demons (one of whom may be Glen Quagmire ) or forced into arbitrary wars. All rapes result in pregnancy (Hell is a pretty horrible place of course), which is reminiscent of certain Family Guy episodes where unexpected or bizarre pregnancies occur.

Fanfic Two

It's just my idea of how I'd do "Gotham", the television programme about the adolescent Bruce Wayne. The programme misses quite a few opportunities to introduce entirely new characters or have biographies of the family background of established DC universe characters i.e. say The Joker's father. It would be interesting to introduce The Batman as a potential villain, eliminating Gotham's underworld as part of Bruce's need for revenge. But he is redeemed when his methods don't work against powered or supernatural characters or simply by his first meeting with The Man of Steel. My main thought is that Bruce himself becomes a suspect, and is even imprisoned, in the case of his parent's murder. The theory being that the young Bruce Wayne hired the underworld to eliminate his parents so he could take over Wayne Industries, and, perhaps, even the entire city.  The background to this is Bruce suffering three/four years of bat-related nightmares aft...
