Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8

About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.

I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that...





For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link

I'd have to go with Winds of Winter. The opening scene with the Light of the Seven theme playing was beautiful and so damn eerie at the same time. That was some damn compelling television. I also loved the Tower of Joy scene and the reveal of Jon Snow's lineage.

A close second would be The Rains of Castamere. I'm not a book reader yet (will be changing that soon), so I was completely taken off guard by what I was witnessing. Not to short any of the other episodes, I think these five are mostly unanimous as the highest quality GoT episodes HBO has made. (I understand there are exceptions; The Door, Blackwater.) Each person is different, I've talked to many who wouldn't list any one of these five episodes as their favorite. And if I'm honest, The Spoils of War is maybe an above average episode without the last 15 minutes. The Loot Train Battle arguably got everyone off (as it should've) and it skyrocketed its IMDB score. Certain great scenes, and there are too many to count throughout all 7 seasons so far, can really change a viewer's perception of the entire episode.

Maybe this has been discussed before in the other thread, I can't remember. Just wanted to see what everyone's thoughts were.

The Climb was really good, as was The Watchers on the Wall.

But yeah, hard to argue with those 5. The problem with The Rains of Castamere is that it's rewatchability is zero. I've never popped open HBO Go and thought "hey, lets watch the Red Wedding again..."

If I did a marathon, I'd probably skip all of season 1 and the Red Wedding (if only because Season 1 seems like a complete waste of time at this point).

I'm with you in not rating Spoils of War any higher than average. Even the Loot Train Battle doesn't raise it much above average. Hardhome, Blackwater, BoB, were all richer and fuller imho. Part of it may be that to me Dany is such a weak link as a character and and an actress.

The Rains of Castamere song from the Red Wedding, wasn't that a song in Westeros history from some other significant event?

Lord Reyne of Castamere rebelled against the Lannisters.
Tywin crushed them with a vengeance
Musicians immortalized the beatdown in song
Cersei described the beatdown to Maegery right before Sansa's wedding
Musicians played the song right before the slaughter at the Red Wedding
GoT producers used the song as a cue in the buildup to the Loot Train attack.

A nod to Lady Stoneheart?

https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comm...usaolp00000618



First appears at 1:14 when the word Mother is said.

Appears behind Arya again at 2:00.

It's more than likely just people on Reddit looking too much into shit.

That's crazy talk to me. That episode featured Arya finally returning to Winterfell and her family which has taken 6 seasons and been met with constant heartbreak (i.e. how close did she come only to have the Red Wedding happen right in front of her).

It featured a bad ass training sequence between Arya and Brienne.

And after all this time, we finally got a full grown fire-breathing dragon laying waste to the Lannister army and a horde of screaming Dothraki riding into battle, standing on their galloping horses to fire arrows, etc.

That was no average episode, that was a fantastic episode with massive long awaited events and dragon porn. I mean seriously? Average? I can't even begin to understand that take.

People speculating that this is Lady Stoneheart. Seen during the Arya sparring scene. Twice.
