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 Last edited by keg in kc; 06-21-2017 at 10:48 AM.. |

The wolf that 'plays' Ghost is dead.
But that's not that big a deal; it's not like ghost had any markings to speak of. Would've been difficult if they didn't still have Nymeria to work with - that one is very distinct. But if they want to bring back ghost (not sure what purpose he serves but fan service at this point), they easily could. |

Also just because we haven't seen ghost in a few episodes doesn't mean he's dead(although the "actor" is). We haven't seen Gendry since season three and he's still got a role to play. |

So are they going to sail all the way around the continent to get to Casterly Rock? Or do they plan on marching across the landscape?

Euron fan here (now). I was also a huge Ramsay Bolton fan. I love me some badass psychopaths. It's gonna suck to see those pretty Dornish girls get raped and tortured though. Also, i agree with others. There's more plot holes through two episodes of this season than what we'd see in the entirety of previous seasons. |

Show needs more Bronn...or more humor in general.
Also wtf happened to Gendry? He's been on a boat to Kings Landing for like 4 years. Did the actor die in RL or something? |

Littlefinger better do something quick, as Jon likely will find out from Tyrion what he did to Ned.

Agree! I was annoyed by his miracle fleet of 1000 ships at first, but somebody needed to kick up some embers. The fire was going out. I think the constant defeating of so many armies/groups/families to the point of ruin over the years has left them with very few realistic armies in Westeros. Dany was coming with a dominant force and I'm just going to have to let realism go and accept the magic fleet and the Tarly army turning on the Tyrells, even though in tradition of the kingdoms, Warden of the South really shouldn't be enough to entice a man like Tarly to turn without a royal marriage for his son available, and I can't imagine Dickon marrying Cersei, but if she turns down Euron again, I guess it is possible. They did recast an older actor for him. The Lannisters seem to have war proof numbers somehow over years of fighting, How can North get some of that magic? Is Dorne out of it? The Martells are gone and the Sand snakes will be gone soon. The only other Dornish House mentioned in the show at all is the Daynes and we've seen nothing of them in the current time. The army wasn't destroyed though, but it may be a show simplification to just leave them out now. Loved the Nymeria connect, and the callback to "That's not me." Also loved the callback when Jon told Littlefinger "You don't belong down here" after all his crypt dreams and not feeling like he belongs there. |

I never read the books, but in the show the Dornish are a bunch of pussies. They've never been a threat to anyone. The Sand Snakes weren't bad ass at all.
They got 2v1'd by Euron, and then captured by some basic ass soldiers? So disappointing. |

His end will come quickly unless he changes his situation very soon. Tyrion, Sandor, and probably Bran all know he betrayed Ned.
Of course, everyone could forget just like they forgot that Jon used to be dead, or like Dany forgot that Varys was on a ship with him for months. |

Disappointing across the board, and I guess probably best left out for the duration. |
