A Game of Thrones - TV Show Discussion Thread

[Elok]

So they give the really good actors the roles of the horrible ****goblins you're supposed to hate unequivocally?

[Proteus_MST]

Do they sometimes pause the main story to flash back to some dragon-king's war from eighty years ago like in the books?

There are a few flashbacks, but most of them rather short.
Also Starks get killed left and right ... you haven't grown accustomed to the name of a Stark and s/he already is dead

I should also mention that the actor who plays Joffrey Baratheon does a really good job, likewise the one who plays Ramsey Bolton

I am betting we will see Cleganbowl, the fall of Winterfell, the final battle at the neck, Jon plunges Heartsbane into Melisandra to recreate Lightbringer, Jamie strangles his sister, most people get killed in the end including Jamie as he rushes to tell everyone about a wildfire trap but it all blows up killing most people and destroying Kingslanding. Danny lives but dies in child birth. Tirian survives as he always stays out of fights and becomes King Regent for Jon and Danny’s incest baby and if he is lucky he gets to bone the black translator girl.

That is just my guess though and I am probably wrong. I still don’t know why the Night’s King wants to invade Westeros but maybe we will find the ancients imprisoned the Night’s Queen in the Winterfell crypts or something.

Once or twice. Not nearly as often as in the books.

I've never seen the show; do they bring up lemon cakes all the time?

Note that "lemon cakes" is not any kind of sexual slang here, I mean literally fruit-flavored confections.

[Dinner]

The three statues are for those three?

[-Jrabbit]

[BeBMan]

Not much to see there except three Starks and some fog. But maybe there's some kind of foreshadowing in there...

LOL @ GoT lazarus posts.

My field of Fvcks To Give is barren. Call me when it's over or when Trump has Hillary beheaded, whichever comes first.

And those of us that would prefer not to know would appreciate it not being disclosed here

[Dinner]

Normally the new season starts in May but there will be no season in 2018 and we will have to wait for 2019 to get the final season. It just feels so long.

On the upside most of the plot leaked half a year ago so everyone who wants to know already knows how it ends.

[pchang]

That description about Dany sounds bad. My bad it’s just me, but I’m thinking we last see her in some sort of kinky sex scene.

[rah]

Yeah, I guess so.

[Wezil]

Desiring child sacrifices takes a bit of the shine off though...
