6th Sense Shyamalan or Airbender Shyamalan?
i thought he was implying that he isn't able to use hbo go/now or something, not that he doesn't have the hbo channel
lay off me bruh come on
I'm so hyped over this episode I can't even sleep tonight (it's 1:38 AM right now, the episode will air at 9:00 AM).
What do you guys think will happen in this episode? Personally I have a few guesses:
1) Dany will die and Jon will be her successor. The talk about succession in episode 6 is a big indicator and this season - although highly enjoyable- has like 0 subtlety to it. That and Drogon begging to be pet by Jon is what's making me think this way.
2) The vision Bran saw in season 4 about a dragon flying over king's Landing will happen in this finale. But it won't be Drogon, it will be Viserion mounted by The Night's King wrecking havoc on the city.
3) I have a feeling a lannister will also die this episode. Probably Jamie, but I wish it will be Cersei.
4) I have no clue or interest about what's going on in winter fell. But either one of the Stark girls die, or LF dies. Don't know what Bran will do though. Until now I don't understand his point in the grand scheme of things.
EDIT: BTW i know most, if not all my guesses will be wrong, but who cares? lol.

Since Jon is both Stark and Targ, ice and fire, I guess we don't need her.
Yeah right, the internet would melt, and I'd be fucking pissed.
I question if she will make it to the end, but to kill her tonight, man....
Dany was and still is the heart of GOT to me, she is by far my favorite character. So i would be pretty pissed also, but all the signs are pointing towards that.

man it's gonna be a long wait for the final season. =(
I will say though this season is about as bad as this thread has ever been in regards to how critical people have been. I basically just come in to read reactions after I watch the episode and that's it. I used to be in these thread like a lot more but it;s ghotten a lot less fun this season.

You'll just huff and blow and end up talking more than doing, just like Dany.

I just want a great finale as close as S6.
Hey we in Europe get the episodes a day later! Join the club.
Yup, and Euron. I cannot stress this enough
It's possible for Sansa to die, but I think Arya has a bigger chance of kicking the bucket (LF is the biggest candidate though).
Also, what original pitch?

The funniest thing about this thread this season is people both simultaneously complaining that fan favorites now have plot armor, while constantly saying it's time for Cersei, LF and Euron to die, lol.
Jaime had some pretty thick plot armor in that one episode this season.
I wonder how close we will get the season finales of 4 and 6 in terms of greatness.
!!!!!All kinds of potential spoilers!!!!!

I will give it a read after watching the finale. Thank you for the link.
How can one complain about Plot Armor for favorite characters when Thoros of Myr died this season
"Plot armor" and "fan fiction" are the themes for this season's thread.

People like Jaime though. Since he saved Brienne it's rare to see anyone wanting him dead.

Someone had to die, otherwise it would have been incredibly ridiculous. It was either him or Berric since they get the least amount of screen time outside of Gendry, who they wouldn't have brought back just to kill the very next episode. Though they should have, it would have been kinda funny.
Don't forget teleportation.

So, who do you think dies this episode? There has to be a final gutpunch.
I'm totally expecting Arya is going to shishkebab Littlefinger to send a message to Sansa - either fully commit to helping Jon or join your mentor. I don't see LF or Sansa getting the better of Arya and I can't see either of the Stark sisters dying tonight.
I think Littlefinger, Beric, and Grey Worm are all on the chopping block. I'm honestly surprised Beric didn't bite the dust alongside Thoros, so I can't see him holding out much longer.
Tyrion, Jorah, Gregor, Beric, Varys, and Littlefinger.
And Bran
Those are my predictions.

No one is safe.
Dany is the power of the show, while Jon is the heart
Westeros is lost without Dany

Who will cook for the living when the long night comes?
If anyone is safe, it's good ol' Hot Pie.
There's no way Beric dies. I agree with the rest though.
Jorah basically has nothing else to do. Unless they were planning a love triangle thing with Jon and Dany.
I think Bran becomes a tree.

He can't die. He's the Prince that was Promised.

After the Hack and Leaks throughout this season, I cant believe weve made it to Sunday afternoon without the finale leaking lol. HBO must be thrilled, or they payed the hackers a very large sum of money.
I dont think any large players will die tonight accept probably Little Finger. Dont see any threads that could lead to a major death tonight accept him. They are trying to make us believe Sansa and Arya are feuding, but I seriously doubt Sansa or Arya would ever kill the other. Figuring out that Littlefinger has been playing them though would be a huge reveal though that would totally lead to his death.

We still have 5.5 hours to go, but at this point it'd be a lot easier to ignore than shit leaking out almost a week in advance.

I have a feeling this will top the s6 finale
Oh no... Now I'm thinking Arya might die ;_;

That's a tall order. S6 finale was practically perfect.

I wonder if Cersei will have Qyburn examine the wight, dude seems well versed in the dark and unusual arts. Wonder if he'll be able to put some of his knowledge to good use towards the great war.
Oh yeah, forgot about him, even less screen time.
Disagree, I think he becomes Dany's new Hand before the end. Tyrion is a pretty lousy hand.

I will agree that there is no reason to kill him narratively that I can think of. I sorta just threw him in because I think the finale is going to be very death-heavy and he has become a marginal character. I feel like they are gonna streamline the cast for the final season.
Edit: I put Bran in spoilers just for dubious comedic effect.
Stannis, this way we have less loose ends.
I have high hopes for it. The more I think about it, the more I realize how epic 82 minutes worth of material could be.

The show no longer needs appropriate set-ups, though. Shit just happens.
