[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I can kind of see Brienne staying in Winterfell to keep Sansa safe, she will certainly be head of her Queensguard when Westeros realizes Sansa is the practical choice.
She isn't going to break her oath to Catelyn.
Jamie heading back to Kings Landing seems like a pretty standard "getting the pieces back to starting positions for the final face-off" television move, no? I don't see a lot of character motivation for it beyond that.
How Game of Thrones' onscreen Starbucks cup became a viral metaphor for season 8
Just really sloppy filmmaking.
Oh, that's what that's all about. Sigh.
That's a bonus of deciding to watch on my phone, I suppose - don't notice stuff like that.
A whole lot of people didn't notice, who probably should have.
But I assume the DP will put out a press release shortly stating that if you saw a Starbucks cup in front of Daenerys last night, it's because your TV settings were wrong.
I'm reading Reddit threads on the Bloodraven theory which posits that Bran himself as the 3ER is the main threat
At this point, I think you can dismiss any fan theory that requires D&D to be subtle and clever.
It's not so much that he's a threat as the fact that there are no women writing this show is a threat.
Ding ding ding.

I felt like I was watching Lost, and there was some reason go across the island again.
Jaime is just, what the hell, Jaime? Maybe he wants to get back into the Kingslayer racket?
I had half-hoped he was going back to be the kingslayer (queen), but he knows she's carrying his child, so I don't know.
I'm basically watching out of morbid curiosity to see if they can manage to fuck up the landing even worse than either BSG or Lost did, at this point.

It would be quite an accomplishment, given that the writers of those other shows had to make up their own endings, while this show has GRRM waving a pair of batons, guiding them in for a landing.

Ha! I get that reference.
I wonder if GRRM forgot (or "forgot" for that matter) some crucial information to pass on
