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...

What’s the point of all that action but we see 20% of the action, at best? Was it to save money? What’s the official word because fans are ticked off.
How many other battles with the NK happened in the dark? None that I can think of. My guess it was money. To film the same battle in the light would cost a lot more.
The one thing I liked though was the Dothroki's riding into the night lit up and being extinguished. That was kind of cool. Everyone back at Winterfell was Oh Fuck. [Reply]
I was originally disappointed that the NK was killed like that, but this i remembered this quote from GRRM:
“We don’t need any more Dark Lords, we don’t need any more, ‘Here are the good guys, they’re in white, there are the bad guys, they’re in black. And also, they’re really ugly, the bad guys.
It is certainly a genuine, legitimate topic as the core of fantasy, but I think the battle between Good and Evil is waged within the individual human hearts”
This will end exactly as GRRM intends it to. [Reply]

no?
why not? it would have been so awesome for the the female audience!
oh...maybe if your characters can stand on their own two feet they don't need that bullshit....
:-) The fact that it irritates you days after you watched the movie. [Reply]
I became a fan of Beric Dondarion through the books. After Ned sends him on his mission you read little blurbs here and there about him continuing his mission inspite of Ned’s death and all the turmoil that follows it. Later on we learn that he and his mission have become hijacked in a way, but he is still fighting the good fight.
