Uh oh (read at your own risk): https://old.reddit.com/r/freefolk/co...oilers_i_know/

This person was under the radar at first, but looks to be batting a 1000 right now. The last bit of info is third-hand, and it could be from a fake scene that D&D shot (another person claimed that somebody on set saw Jaime or Podrick die in Brienne's arm's in Winterfell, but that never happened), but so far, it's not looking good.

I can see Jon killing Dany. They're doing a good job of portraying her as power hungry and on the verge of going mad. Jon will probably kill her to prevent her from doing something terrible (killing innocent people most likely). He'll be devastated but his nobleness will trump his love for her, tbh.

Is there sexual tension between Jaime and Brienne or just friendship? Kinda weird since she's like 6'5" tbh.

Pretty gay that this ended up being true since she's 6-5 and he's way out her league (no ), tbh.

[InRareForm]

Why didn't cersei just destroy Dany and everyone and the dragon when they came to talk? Tons of scorpions and archers

If it was up to HBO they'd ride this ship right into the bottom of the sea like AMC is doing with The Walking Dead.

I think the showrunners are exhausted and want out and just dont give a if they leave starbucks coffee cups on a table while filming. People give the fat a lot of credit but I think the reason we haven't seen a book in like 10 years in because he's hit a wall and doesn't know how to end it himself.

Yep, HBO would pull a Disney and kill the outta this like they've done to the Star Wars franchise

Great episode 10/10 tbh. It's a ing show meant to entertain. at anyone expecting a perfect ending. It is what it is, people will and moan no matter how it ends.

FYI, another person who leaked season 7 just confirmed that most of the spoilers left that are being spread around are true. The interesting thing is that all of the rest of the leaks end with episode 5. The rumors about episode 6's production being top secret, appear to be true.

I'll just be happy with a solid 10 minutes of Bran looking through the past. It is bound to be way better than what's coming. I just know they will blow the ending.

I'm all in for finality sakes.

Been watching the older seasons recently. Man I forgot how terrible season 5 was compared to the others. The whole Ramsay and Reek thing, The Faceless Men storyline, High Sparrow gaining power. It makes for a very boring season, but I have to admit it also makes for great payoffs in season 6.

Yea I really enjoyed 4 watching it again, great season. Crazy how big of a falloff 5 is. Will be watching 3 next. Not sure why I'm re-watching it in a semi reverse order just kinda happened

Guess originally I just wanted to see the recent events again that had led up to season 8

[spurraider21]

i think season 5 was the worst of the show. dorne sucked. the sons of the harpy got tired. the house of black and white was surprisingly boring (except for the meryn trant scene).

only redeeming qualities were hardhome and tyrion/jorah plot with tyrion finally meeting daenerys . sparrows were hit and miss.

season 6 was a great rebound though

season 7 was a cluster but was still action packed and overall fun to watch. more fan service than great writing, but i still enjoyed it.

i've resisted reading about spoilers so far...

Reading through the first half of those is pretty impressive having seen 4 episodes thus far.


The spoilers regarding Cersei---------



























I'm not sure Jon has any business killing Cersei at all. It would be like Arya killing the Night King.

Actually going by season 8 logic, it makes perfect sense, nevermind

Would still suck to see a character that had barely two words said to each other in the entire series to randomly be killed by one another.

[Xevious]

Okay so I've avoided spoilers thus far but finally got around to watching the first three episodes. Episodes one and two were mostly good. My biggest complaint is that alot of these reunions we've waited years for are just being breezed by and falling flat. That and Jon riding a dragon for the first time should have been a much bigger deal than they made it seem. Daenerys taking off on Drogon in season 5 (?) was a much bigger moment. Jon struggling to ride Rheagal was played more for laughs and no other characters really acknowledge the significance. Other than that it was mostly good. Jamie knighting Brienne was probably my favorite moment.

Episode three... what a show. I won't rehash everything everybody has already said multiple times, but I just cannot wrap my head around any of the dumb decisions made during this episode. I really have no problem with Arya killing the NK, but how it played out was stupid. Jon and Dani, who were built up to be these larger-than-life characters and possible prince-who-was-promised candidates, played almost zero part in ending the long night... other than massing an army. The series is call A Song of Ice and Fire for Christ's sake. Are we to assume that ending the reign of a drunken queen and her pirate lover is going to be a more significant victory? And Bran, other than being bait, was completely useless. I seriously cannot think of a more anticlimactic ending to the White Walker storyline.

[TimDunkem]

Jon kills Dany.

[chunticakes]

The least you get your hopes up the better. I stopped giving a already despite being emotionally invested what, eight-nine years into the show? At this point I expect a Dexter type ending.

I want to like this episode, but Dany ing around with peasants instead of rushing straight for the Red Keep just makes no sense at all.

It's another example of writing around desired scenes and ends and ignoring character development and logic. Can't have Dany kill Cercei too quickly or we don't get Cercei and Jamie back together. Seems like there are better ways to achieve that end.

That said, pretty thrilling episode from an action standpoint.

[gambit1990]

so ing stupid

dany destroying the iron fleet in ten seconds
all of a sudden multiple scorpions can't fire at once
euron conveniently running into jamie
jamie conveniently running into cersei
arya surviving

SMH

[gambit1990]

arya could've been on a plane that crashed into a world trade center and she would've survived.

What doesn't make any ing sense is her destroying that , the entire series was "I'm gonna get what's mine" Now it's "I don't want it anymore I'm gonna blow it the up"

[redzero]

Is it me or could all of this have been avoided if Jon just ed his hot aunt? The entire reason that Dany dropped Daario was to find an eligible suitor in Westeros, but there was never a discussion about marriage when she met Jon. A marriage alliance would have softened the Northerners to her--hopefully shutting Sansa's annoying ing mouth up--but neither Jon nor Dany's advisors sat down with them and had an actual conversation about it. Varys chose to risk his life and commit treason against Daenerys while still on Dragonstone, because he thought Jon usurping Dany was the best option possible. This is so contrived that it's ridiculous.

[angrydude]

Greatest episode of the entire series. Seriously. Makes up for this entire ty season. If you don't see it, you're an idiot. George RR Martin is super anti-war. He was a conscientious objector during the Vietnam war. He got out of getting drafted because of anti-war short stories he wrote. Dragons in this world are nuclear bombs. This is the most anti-nuclear war message ever, right up there with the ending of The Planet of the Apes.

Yea this episode was really bad for so many reasons. I am just laughing at this point though. Will be interesting to see where the halfwits take it from here.

It's funny to know that this was GRRM's vision all along. D&D and HBO pandered to the YAASS QUEEN crowd with Daenerys for years, knowing full well that she was going to be the true villain of the series the entire time. They even had me convinced that she wasn't all that bad by the end of season seven, and I was apathetic towards her before that. They cut seven episodes of character development needed to make Dany's turn more believable, and replaced them with all of her friends being killed.

I'll be honest and say that I enjoyed the episode, outside of the ty military tactics and general Hollywood bull (e.g., Arya surviving certain death half-a-dozen times). But it's very easy to differentiate between D&D's interpretation of these characters and GRRM's.
