Already watched S8E1 twice and the second time was better. Just based on the sheer number of characters at Winterfell, many will die, I expect the supporting cast (the gendry's, Ser Jorah and the greyworms) to die during the battle of winterfell, but also wonder which A-listers (Jaimie Lannister, Jon Snow, Dani, Arya)if any will die, so many to choose?


Am seeing an alliance of families before they all face the night king. The starks will betray Jon snow when they realize that he's not one of them. in season 7 Tyrion looked sad when his fathers army was being defeated. He might just forge an alliance with his brother, but on the other hand, the Cersei wants them dead.. Will Dany bend the knee for Jon snow? Those 2 will collide Sam doesnt like Dany either... and there's something with Bran...Cant wait!


The Starks have always 'known' Jon Snow was not one of them. That is why he took the oath of the night's watch in the first place. But a scene towards the end of last season had Bran showing the circumstances of how Ned Stark got him. He is both a Stark and a Targaryen though he doesn't know.

The season has already gone beyond the books but Tyrion feels nothing for his sister and I don't expect that to change. He was smuggled to Westeros to find the dragon queen, his heart is with the Targaryens.


They Always thought Jon was their father's son with some woman no one knew. That's why their mother hated him but Ned stark swore to keep the secret for his sister.

Bran saw the vision of the truth and sam collaborated that indeed he read that in the diaries. That's why Bran asked Sam to tell Jon the truth. So now that he knows, how will he break that to Danny?

Theon's death was painful but honorable. Ser Joahr was to die, it was a miracle he survived the dragon disease. Arya! The Iron Lady of Winterfell

They are rushing to end the series and that's not doing justice to the story line. The dark night should have covered all of westeros and the battle at King's Landing should have been way more

Episode 5 had some good budget poured in. That was an intense 80 minutes.

BBI will solve it

I watched GOT from Season 1 but later became busy and bored by its nonsense. I wasn't sure of the latter till I visited a friend and found him watching some of the latest episodes.

The idea of dragons and desire for the iron throne are some of the sickest ideas a person can inject himself with. True the whole thing is fiction and entertainment but it doesn't follow that one should ingest such material to be happy or spur imagination.

i last watched GoT june 2017 according to my laptop, so looks like I am ahead of most guys here, since I am on season 3, problem is due to my short span of attention I watch 1 episode for a week, but GoT aside I have beed reading sherlock holmes, then listened to all the audio books including the spin-offs, then tried to watch the series and although they tried the series don't do justice to the books nor the audio.

D&D are rushing it, but HBO and GRRM were of the opinion there should be another season (9). The books do justice to development of the character arcs than what is on the TV series.

We're beyond the books now. George Martin is busy writing the spin offs

That partly explains why D&D didn't want an extra season to mellow into the character arcs , they were lacking material to guide them, so wrapping it as fast as they could was the best way out

D&D also rushed this because they wanted to work on the next Star Wars.

Axe: Wags, you ever get tired of working for a living?

Wags: Every damn day, but I've got a nasty addiction called money. So, I do what I do. You?

Axe: No! Never! Until today.

You know what they call us traders? "Gamblers".

The world economy is just one big casino fueled by a giant debt bubble and computer-driven derivatives.

There's only one thing better than being a gambler at a casino.

Wags: That's being the house.

Axe: That is right.

There's a systematized machine out there sucking capital from localities and injecting it into the global markets where it can be used to speculate and manipulate.

And if something goes wrong, there are bailouts, bail-ins, federal aid, and easing.

Where the government doesn't hunt you down, but instead gives you a nice soft net to land in.

Wags: That's your finals answer to the fireside chat?

You want to become a bank?

Axe: I want to become a bank.

Wags: In order to rob it?

Axe; In order that I don't have to......

And to sleep like they do [pointing to the bankers]

And to die in my own f#cking bed.
