    it looks pretty written in stone at this point that we are sol until 2019.

    the reason being, usually they have 2 teams shooting in 2 different locations because all the plots are all over the fucking place. this means they can basically get footage in the can 2x as fast.

    now that all the characters are more or less on the same geographical stage, its 1 crew pretty much. so yeah looks like its going to air in spring of 2019.

    It seems Jamie is just going to join up with Dany's army (and eventually get with Brienne which I said was going to happen years ago), so I don't really see Tyrion betraying Dany for him. Maybe he betrays her for Cersei?

    I personally think that at some point Jon is going to betray her to save humanity.

    Filming apparently started a week or two ago.

    Also it looks like the whole Meera Reed / Jon Snow twins nonsense is dust because it does not appear that she's in the final season.

    So basically her getting dissed by Dr Manhattan after saving his life like 50 fucking times is her departing scene from the series.



    Also for season 7 they spent 6 months filming and 5-6 months editing the season.. filming ended in Feb and the series aired starting in July.

    Realistically, they will wrap shooting in March... and air in fall? It's completely possible... like literally they can roll with the "WINTER IS HERE" splash they've been building for as the first snows fall in winter of 2018.

    couple of pleasant updates;

    1) we wont be seeing eliria (sandsnake broad) again, apparently her plot line ends quietly and off screen in cersei's dungeon.

    2) we will be waiting until 2019 to watch the final season because winter was literally late so they had to postpone shooting.

    HBO has really been leaning into SJW cultural Marxism of late. I doubt they would make the final ruler of Westeros a white male. I doubt they would want the person to be white at all, but they might not have a choice there because I don't see any non-white characters it would plausibly be without making it too obvious they are just pandering to political correctedness. And I doubt they want to replicate the backlash Disney got going that route with The Last Jedi.

    What are the odds on Arya? I could definitely see them going that route.

    I'm starting to think there will be a lot less death this season than I originally thought. Wonder if they're gonna keep a lot of characters endings vague to set up possible future one-off movies/small shows. Even the idiots at TWD are doing it.

    there has always been this rumor that somehow, the showrunners agreed to a particular end game with GRM. ive never really bought that narrative, nor am i closer to doing so.

    whatever tho... imo first significant death will likely be dany, last will likely be arya.

    it sounds like the entire last episode is essentially gonna be a movie-length battle. No doubt plenty of deaths coming there.

    I think that *was* the case 4-6 years ago before it became obvious to everyone that GRM was stringing everyone along so they would keep making seasons while he finished everything up.

    When HBO decided enough was enough three years ago they pulled a Hollywood script together that suited their liking. If you squint real close you can see the moment when it went from a methodicaly written story with ravens taking weeks to send messages to being faster than FedEx...

    My understanding is it’s episode 3. It’s like hardhome and the battle Of winterfel combined with some HGH and Steroids.

    It’s suppsedly going to be the biggest and longest continuous battle sceen ever.
