Unfortunately, Hodor also has dead meat written all over him, and you have The Neverending Story to thank for it. Look at Hodor there: he's a harmless sort, his only job seemingly being ferrying poor Bran around like some sort of horse. He can't fight, he's a creature of pure virtue because of his innocence and naivety and he's sort of seen as a big helpless child. In other words, he's basically Artax the horse. For the same reason that Artax was killed off (albeit prematurely) in the Swamp Of Sorrow (because horses can get depressed too, obviously), Hodor won't make it to the resolution of the game of thrones. It's all about the magic formula that suggests that purely innocent characters are the most likely to die, and when he serves very little purpose in the advancing narrative, that spells double trouble. How He'll Die Sadly, the extrapolation of that formula suggests that like Robb Stark's unborn child and Shireen Baratheon, the manner of Hodor's death is also inextricably linked with how innocent he is. So he'll probably be torn apart slowly by wolves, pickled in vinegar alive, eaten by Walder Frey and set on fire.
