I don’t understand why so many people leave out the most important revelation long term to the story... The parentage of John Snow.

I appreciate your bringing that up, I watched the scene but didn't understand its relevance.

The other noteworthy tidbit in the finale was the white raven arriving at Winterfell signaling that Winter is here.

As for next season the only predictions I'll make is that the dragons will make short work of the zombies from beyond the wall.

Also, could it be that Jon Snow is the Prince That Was Promised , and that is why the Red Witch was able to bring him back from death?

Jon came back from his own “magic or destiny.” The witch was as surprised as everyone else that Jon came back to life. There is something about Ned’s bro being alive to save Bran from white walkers and Jon.
