No spoilers! :)) lol I can't bring myself to watch them online. I like to prolong it so it doesn't end and that way i have something to look forward to.

It's a good thing George isn't as involved with the new season...it's much better with him out of it. He is a writer, not a visionary. IMO. But some directors are not good visionaries, hence the reason the original director for the pilot was fired and the pilot was reshot with a new director.  HBO almost did not even pick up the show with the first screening of the pilot.

The Shining would not have been as good as it it today as such a classic, had they let Stephan King have any say so about the film. He wrote the book, which is just a guide to someone writing the screenplay, then the director makes the movie based on how he interprets the screenplay. Of course with all those hands in the pot, things are going to get pulled in and somethings left out. In the book, which I read, the effing trees talked, so that would have been just whacked stupid, although it fit fine in the book. Stephen King always mixes fantasy with reality, which is not a problem, he just tends to go overboard with it and creates fantasy that isn't even realistic (a paradox I know). There are still rules with that sort of thing.

I never read the GoT books. It's the book hounds (nerds te he) who claim oh that didn't happen or this didn't happen, but who cares? The storyline is still good and every little bitty thing doesn't have to follow the books. The book series is massive - I'm in college, who wants to read all that shyte?  There are audiobooks on Youtube if anyone is interested. DL them before they are gone or blocked.

I've read many many posts during the first season where people claimed they were going to stop watching the show and I was like...SSSSSSSSuuuurRRRRReeeee and nope that didn't happen. It was just so unrealistic. IMO with such a great show. I know people who could never get into it, but I was intrigued by the white walkers from the beginning and that was the main reason I kept coming back so see what was up with that bunch, then the dragons, then perhaps everyone else.

Because Jon/Dani are not currently hooked up, everyone loves a good love story (not that I agree with these two in particular), I'm just saying.
Everyone in the world does not end up with someone. Movies/films/television makes too big a deal out of romances sometimes which I feel have created a fantasy state in many people, which isn't healthy. js. Jeez, does the whiteknight have a girlfriend?

I agree with Dani telling Jon to kiss her foot. The kingdom was ripped from her so it's only right that she gets it back and needs to know where everyone's allegiances lie. But when everyone finds out he has a bigger claim than she, I wonder how she is going to feel when Jon tells her to kiss his pinky toe? Now now Dani, don't come at him with your Dragons.

Arya (even with her many faces speech) still rankles my nerves. Go away!

I was just flat out heart broken, but Jon Snow/Kit Harrison in a few interviews actually spoiled it without meaning to or perhaps it's in the books. For some reason I knew what was going to happen before it happened and I'm not sure if someone speculated about it or what. I'm not sure.

Have you heard anything about S07E07 having leaked onlne as well? I read an article about it that it was posted too early or something like that. I'll be on the look out for that too. Might as well get it over with.

I now know the difference between a Wight and a Whitewalker. The Whitewalkers are the sacrificed babies that were used to create the Whitewalkers (and bring on the cold, snow and ice), where as the Wights are just zombie like creatures who have risen from the dead due to the Night King. Ha!

Bumping this because I am so jacked for the final season!!!!

HornetKick:
It's been a long ass wait. It's suppose to be a blood bath so don't get your hopes up on your favorite surviving the end. I rewatched all 7 seasons just so  it's still fresh. It's much clearer the second time around and you begin to appreciate who survived and/or dies and recognize all the nonstellar characters.
