Like Game of Thrones? Does that make him young Bale already? Time skip for final season with Bale confirmed.

What does "shit life" even mean to the inhabitants of the world of game of thrones
No way that was all of it.

I think that was all of it cause I feel like if she's still got em, they'd have panicked less.

I think between that and what Tyrion used at the Battle of the Blackwater you're probably looking at about enough to have roasted the entire city, which is apparently what Aerys's rainy-day wildfire fund was for.
I'm sure there's some left, but probably not enough to burn King's Landing down.
Just bought the season 7 soundtrack, being very careful not to listen to anything from the finale. Man I love how Ramin has evolved Dany's theme and added these layers to it that make it such a stirring piece of music now.
Going from this and this to this and this and this. Good shit.
He was really under-appreciated early in the series, but I'm glad he's getting his due now.

For people wondering about the spear through, it's been implied that white walkers are way above human strength and that the only thing capable of stopping them is the magic of Valyrian steel over human strength.
So damn right I believe those things are more effective than a human made ballista.

Time is a flat circle.
On Gendry, I seriously don't see a difference in looks, he's just a bit older, has a different haircut and less facial hair.
Wasn't my argument to start with, he just doesn't look that different.
Yeah, watching the promo got me hyped on that episode. Only a few days left!
I'd say, the lack of leak this time is almost refreshing. Kinda stupid when you think about it. At least I can browse YouTube without worrying too much.

I mean, it's a season finale, someone's gotta bite the big one.
I'm thinking
Yara
I'm going to ahead and guess
The three main Ironborn characters are going to bite it. Yara, Theon, and Euron are all going to die. It also wouldn't surprise me to see someone like Littlefinger as well.
I'm INSANELY hyped for this Sunday.

Even normal dramas tend to kill off a character or two in the season finale of their penultimate season, the only reason I could possibly imagine Game of Thrones not offing a few would be the pure novelty of it.

I'm worried about it because I don't think any of that will happen.
I just want the show to surprise me again.

Yes, they are far stronger, maybe not as strong as Giants, but definately Gregory Clegane level if not stronger.
That's why the Night King's spear shot travelled so far with such force to kill Viserion.

There is no way at least 1 prominent character doesn't die.

Finale Deadpool:

Mountain
Jaime

Everyone will see Dany for what she really is, hopefully
Worst case, I was able to pull myself together after the red wedding :|
I wish those first four would die Sunday, but they wont and
Euron
My favorites are the Night King and Littlefinger so HAH!

I mean, the obvious answer is "because he's in the books".
I will say that as soon as I saw the casting for him I had no real expectations of him making it in the long haul, though. That's a mug you want to to eat a blade.
Euron is almost entirely there to be an avenue for Theon's redemption. Theon wants to die and he's probably going to take Euron with him.
The Mountain is probably going to be the true final boss of Game of Thrones, because he's the Garl Vinland to Cersei's Maiden Astraea

Either way, it's a defense for the way he looks now. He may not look different to you, but clearly that's not something everyone agrees or is happy with.
Death prediction:
Littlefinger is definitely dead, his scheming and backstabbing nature has no room in the wars to come and he has had his compens since season 1. What better way for him to go than by Starks and one being the Cat replacement?
Theon and Yara, both of their stories have been through a lot but I don't see where else they can go. Either they both die or it's just Theon who redeems himself as Theon and not Reek while trying to save Yara. Otherwise, though, boats aren't important so there's not much for them to do with the war against the Night King.
Euron will die, he is one of the "villains" of the show and is completely boat centrist, he's useless to the story and him dying will he satisfying for the audience. Theon probably kills him and dies doing so.
In terms of major characters, I think there's a toss up with Cersei. Pre-preggos, I would have said that she's too cray cray to ever try to hold an alliance for Dany but Cersei's ruthlessness comes from the death of her children, maybe a part of her will see that's truly at stake here now that she has her future kid to think about. Pre-prego she was definitely dead, and Jaime was the cleary candidate to kill her but now it's a bit iffy that she's pregnant.
I'm sure we will have other deaths, even some of major characters, but I can't really imagine the scenario where it happens or why D&D would off them.

See guys, plot holes are nothing new for season 7!
Jon should've died right here, White Walker literally has the sharp end pointed at him and then decides to use the blunt end.

Let the bodies hit the floor. Having that many characters meet in one place spells for a likely disaster.

It felt to me like he was brought on just to give Dany some L's and Cersei a fighting chance.
I also think Theon wants to die, but he's too scared to die. Poor dude is trapped in his messed up mind.

Can Tyrion safely step foot back into King's Landing after beging sentenced to death for regicide, and then killing the hand of the King before escaping his fate? I do see him dying in Sunday's episode.
Cersei goes mad and has Tyrion killed, Jamie kills Cersei, the Hound kills the Mountain, the Yara and Theon killed by Euron, Euron killed by Jamie. Daenerys walks past Jamie and assumes the throne. Everyone watches.
It's the craziest events my mind can muster, I think the season might just end on a cliffhanger, but it would be nice to have the Iron Throne settled so that the White Walkers are the primary focus for S8.
The Hound can't die, he's destined to wield that flaming sword.

Does anyone else feel like Gendre got ugly? Like, before he was kinda handsome, now he looks weird and ugly (TV show ugly, not real life ugly). It was so jarring I asked my wife if they recast him, but she said they had not.
From this:
To this:
I also think Euron was another avenue for them to rid themselves of the Dorne plot. They figure they can use him as a redemption for Theon and tie up loose ends with an area/group of characters they wrote themselves into a wall with.
I will lose my fucking mind if they kill Tyrion.
And they know for a fact he killed Tywin.
I don't think he dies, though, unless D&D want to fake us out with this possible alliance and it actually just turns into a bloodbath where Dany kills Cersei and takes over King's Landing. I could see Tyrion's death leading to that, too.
Astraea was a rather caring and humble figure, though, and ultimately had good intentions. She didn't deserve what happened to her, unlike Cersei, who most certainly does.
Can a dragon please eat her already? Please?
I think at the very least Cersei is going to have some kind of plan to kill Tyrion.
Sounds kind of like a reverse Red Wedding. I dig it, actually. Don't have to strike a deal with Cersei if Cersei is dead and you just took over.
That would actually be a really good fake out. Have Cersei trying to set up her own devious plan to weaken Dany and Jon all episode and then surprise Dany and Jon had a devious plan the entire time.

Ugly? have you actually seen ugly people? and no, he is just older with different haircut that made him slightly different
