Game of thrones season 8 [contains spoilers]

Someone's noticed something about the very first episode.

From 4.00. Look who Robert touches

Ned (hug) - beheaded
Cat (hug) - throat cut
Rickon (hair tousle) - shot with arrow
Robb (handshake) - stabbed

and talks to

Sansa ("you're pretty") - is used as a plaything by Joffrey and Ramsey
Arya ("What's your name?") - becomes no-one
Bran "You'll be a soldier") - is crippled and becomes pretty much opposite of a soldier

I liked it, anyway


this is so old.
 
I thought he'd have been pleased as he hated his dad and now he's Lord Tarly
Yeah, but he's a big softy.
Isn't his family sword Targarian steel? Which also kills white walkers? Is Sam going to use it to take one out later on in a HarryPotteresque "meek minor character saves the world" moment?

from what I remember from the trailer, Ser Jorah uses the sword.
 
I'm really averse to spoilers, generally more so than most, and don't think it's that much faff to use the tags. But, I guess there is some merit to the old "don't read until you've seen the epsiode" argument.

That said, I think it's different for stuff that hasn't come up in the show yet. Fair enough if you want to "read ahead", but I've been purposefully avoiding trailers, interviews and the like so that I don't see/hear about anything before the episode airs.

So could we at least spoiler anything about stuff that features in an episode that hasn't aired yet?
 
Aye. The whole building was vaporised. Looked like it anyway
Didn't think that was the same place. I get muddled up with the cities. Winterfell and Kings Landing always confuse me.

Daenarys had a cooler looking rock throne on Dragonstone imo anyhow.

Winterfell and King's Landing?? I'm not great at keeping track, but I'd have thought them fairly distinct.

Winterfell = cold, dark, medieval castle/fort.
King's Landing = brighter, bigger, port (I think... :hmm: ); generally a bit richer and grander looking (except for Flea Bottom, maybe).

yeah. I prefer dragonstone, too.
 
did you not see the throne cersi was sitting on (cue jokes about euron's cock)
Still lost as to why she shagged him. Given that that was all he was interested in, hasn't she lost any hold over him? She did give a funny look after he said he was going to put a prince in her belly, given she's already preggers. Possibly it's about covering up who the true father is?

She's probably thinking about his boats and getting the fuck out of Dodge. The episode showed them a few times.

Also...the witch said she'd have three children, she's had them. Not pregnant.
 
Yeah must admit I was a bit bored at times. Mainly I think that it was due to the Jon and Daenerys scene. We get it ...... they are in love. I'd agree with whoever said they don't have chemistry.

Some nice touches though. Might give it a rewatch at some point this week.

Agreed about the Jon/Daenerys "thing", but it's mainly Jon not who is convincing for me. At least the Khal looked liked he fancied her.
 
Fine, forget spoilers, whatever, fuck this thread too. This place can be so tiresomely petty
I know you mean well with it but on the last page 12 of the first 15 posts were hidden by spoiler tags which is just a bit silly. The only people taking part have seen it and I can't believe anyone is stupid enough go read the game of thrones thread if they haven't seen the latest episode

So anyway considering we know how slow the army of the dead marches (approx 3 miles per season) do we think they'll get to winterfell in time for the finale?

Is Jon going to claim the throne and start a row or keep quiet about it til it's all over? The latter seems the most sensible option so I guess it won't be that
