GAME OF THRONES SEASON 8. Possible spoilers

Given we are only a week away from the final season, I thought we should have a shiny new thread to discuss the episodes as they are broadcast.

Anyone else going to be starting their watch at 2 am on Monday 15th?

I've watched the trailers and teasers dozens of times, and I am READY!

I have a theory that the Battle for Winterfell in Ep 3 will be lost, and they will have to move south, re assemble at Dragonstone or Kings Landing. After all, here are three episodes to fill after that!

Those Odds are brilliant!

Hot Pie is 500/1. I'm getting me a piece of that action. 😀 You can even bet on Ser Pounce!

I am astonished that Bran is ODDS ON to take the Throne 🤔🙄😧

It is on at 11am here (Australia) so I could banish the kids to play outside (Easter hols), close the blinds and watch it. Poor DH will be at work though and I might feel a little bad about watching it before him. Ahhhh, who am I kidding? I already know that I'm going to watch the first airing, record it and then watch it again with him that night Wink.

Caliplums · 12/04/2019 01:21

I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I am about season 8. I get a little squeal of excitement everytime I think about it.

I'll also be up at 2am watching as I'm going on holiday Monday and couldn't bare to wait another week to watch knowing everyone else has seen it Grin

SweetSummerchild · 12/04/2019 10:20

Those odds are just ridiculous!

Littlefinger is 8/1 and he’s well and truly dead!

Victarion Greyjoy is on there and he was never even cast.

My money is on Dolorous Edd.

Seriously, though, does anyone actually think there is going to be a ruler of Westeros at the end of the series? It sort of goes against everything that GRRM is trying to say in the story. This story will end in one of two ways:

There will be a ruler but no Westeros
There will be a Westeros but no (single) ruler

ElenadeClermont · 12/04/2019 17:59

The whole point of the series (the books almost certainly) that it really does not matter who sits on the Iron Throne at the end. It is only a sideshow.

Notyetthere · 12/04/2019 19:52

Marking place. I can't wait. I will however have to wait till Monday evening to watch it.

I have just taken a screenshot of the thronecast discussion and sent it to dh asking him to check Now TV and prepare the episode for us to watch once I get home in 1hr. I didn't know that they had already these.

I have managed to get through the gap between s7 and s8 by watching lots of youtubers discuss different theories, predictions and all inbetween. I also got the audiobooks and that has also kept me going for a while but oh my it has been a long wait.

Notyetthere · 12/04/2019 19:56

Oh yes and because the changes between the books and the TV series the further I got into the books, it was like I was reading a whole new story. Like how I am jealous of people watching GoT for the first time ever.

OneInAMillionYou · 12/04/2019 20:28

Martin sat down with the two Ds a couple of years ago and told them his key hitting points for the ending. So, even though the show is now well ahead of the books, there should be a broad brush similarity to how Martin will end the books.

Tea you have a very cinematic eye! I could picture that end scene as soon as you described it.

Only 54 hours to go! We're almost there, folks! 😱

GAME OF THRONES NIGHT

FINALLY

How to explain to two children that the two people left on their street aren't scary either one is grief stricken the other terrified and his ice queen or so he sees her has frozen due to the lack of smiles but that's not his fault either

No ones committed crimes everyone just so sad

TedTookVows · 12/04/2019 21:51

We need this tonight my family come through for us and we know what they'd is because if you've seen it in real life is amazing

MyOtherProfile · 13/04/2019 21:52

Just casually marking my place, all subtle like.

Caliplums · 13/04/2019 21:55

Currently in bed watching the last 4 episodes of season 7.

SimonJT · 13/04/2019 21:58

Ah I’m so excited! My best friend and I will be watching it at 2am, cannot wait!!!!

Caliplums · 13/04/2019 22:08

I'll be watching then too.
It's amazing that a tv show has people wishing their days away just for the next instalment, it's like a drug.

OneInAMillionYou · 14/04/2019 02:05

Marking my watch...

Just woke up and realised it is only 24 hours to go....

I have never been so excited about a TV show and I am not the slightest bit embarrassed! GoT is a huge work of art and a cultural phenomenon.

Looking forward to sharing it all with you 👍🏻

Nousernameforme · 14/04/2019 09:15

I won't be watching at 2am but will be planning to watch at 7 in the evening via now t.v.
I might have gone a touch overboard and planned themed snacks. It is usually just dp and myself watching but ds has caught up with it all and will be watching with us.
I have re watched season 7 and been watching all the extra bits so so excited

SimonJT · 14/04/2019 09:20

Not long now! I’ll be having a nap when my son goes to bed so I’m not too tired, then my friend is coming round at about 10 so we can ‘netflix and chill’ until it’s time.

I have set an emergency alarm incase we fall asleep, imagine waking up and realising you had missed it.

motheroftinydragons · 14/04/2019 09:24

So excited, we'll be recording at 2am and as DH is off for the Easter holidays watching it while the children nap at lunchtime. They will nap tomorrow afternoon! If it were just the baby at home we'd watch it with her awake but not sure it's appropriate viewing for a three year old....

OneInAMillionYou · 14/04/2019 10:00

I have a nap planned for early evening.

Alarms already set on phones and iPads just in case.

Set to record on two TVs just in case one doesn't work.

So excited. Feels like Christmas. I am even cleaning the house with renewed vigour so all is perfect for Thrones night.

OneInAMillionYou · 14/04/2019 10:03

Please tell us about themed snacks Nousername

Hot Pies perhaps? Wolf shaped bread? Lemon cakes?

I've seen GoT Oreos online but wasted on me as I don't like Oreos.

OP posts:
Nousernameforme · 14/04/2019 10:16

We are having home made sausage rolls (little nod to theon there) direwolf claws basically shaped puff pastry with a cinnamon sugar filling, lemon cakes, cersie salt nachos with salnsa reaching a bit there i know. We are also having red grape schloer in wine glasses as its a school night and ds is only 15. Oh also a variety of mini chocolate eggs cause, you know, dragons, that and its easter and there are loads around.

It's just some nonsense i found online and thought would be fun as its the last first episode

ppppppickupapenguin · 14/04/2019 10:26

At last the day is here! It’s been a loooong 2 years, I watched all 7 series again over the last couple of months, my ds is staying over at my mums Smile, I doubt I’ll still be awake at 2am but will watch as soon as I wake up tomorrow, (I prefer to record it so I can fast forward the adverts). I am also recording the show which has a countdown of the best episodes ever.
Apparently this first episode is meant to be the funniest they’ve ever done, I do like the one liners some of the characters have.
“There’s no cure for being a cunt” being one Grin

OneInAMillionYou · 14/04/2019 10:41

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 for Nousername

Special kudos for the Theon inspired sausage rolls.😀

Am looking ruefully at my fridge and thinking what a piss-poor effort I have made on the food front. I do have some Sa-n-lsa though! Genius.

TeaForTheWin · 14/04/2019 12:50

Anyone else been like 'man this weekend is draaaaaaging out' waiting on it? xD

I'm gonna have an early night tonight and catch it first thing tomorrow morning on nowtv..

littlefinger is 8/1 and he is well and truly dead

Yeh that's why im thinking it might just be old odds they have up atm!

Ooh but here's a thought - what did they do with littlefingers face? Is it possible Arya could use it for something? Going back to kingslanding to trick cerci maybe...

Not long to go now!

Oblomov19 · 14/04/2019 13:38

Can't wait. Dh and I decided today that we will watch the last episode of the last series, this weekend, just to refresh.
