*UNMARKED SPOILERS ALL BOOKS* Game of Thrones |OT| - Season 7 - Sundays on HBO
- Thread starter Cornballer
- Start date
she is definitely gonna set up Jon and Dany with "I believe you have a role to play, as does another" Jon and Dany are gonna fuck aren't they?
HBO doing episode trailers is ridiculous though.

The WiC site is terrible, here's the link directly to the tweet they imbedded with the trailer though: Link

I mean,
he's her freaking nephew. While that's perfectly acceptable in our fictional world, I'm not sure how well that will play to our TV audience once they find out about Rhaegar being Jon's dad. Who knows, though? It's D&D. They'll probably have Dany rape him for purposes of "character development"...

Thanks, updated it.

Lannister army was never soundly defeated. They have a solid force from casterly rock and their lands still occupying the riverlands
I do wonder how the audience will react to the "good guys" committing incest.

Aiii said it but he didn't say which book.
This is the first time they're doing episode trailers?
looked like Jaime to me. smh.

It looks like they just edited some of the Ep2 and Ep3 previews together into a single one, so I'm not sure why this is much of a change from what they've done in the past.
The Artisan

did they do a "on the next episode of thrones..." for all of the seasons?
Cornballer

They've done it for every single episode thus far (aside from the season finales since they don't have footage from the following season yet).
For example: Episode 102 preview
Ok that makes sense. It's just strange.
I guess the main reason is SDCC is normally after the season, but since it was during the season they wanted to show something.

Unsullied scaling a wall, unclear what location that is though.
Casterly Rock I would figure. Seems like the only mainstream place I can think of that would be invaded.
They're headed to
Casterly Rock based on the previews, but I'm wondering if their attack is thwarted or if it is successful.
No way it's Casterly Rock, they landed on dragonstone, as far away from Casterly Rock as you can get, There will be a lot of resistance between them and the Rock
Sailing around the entire continent to attack Casterly Rock instead of King's Landing that's right next to them makes absolutely no sens....you're probably right.
Use spoiler tags
I was just thinking of places that would want to be shown off and invaded that aren't King's Landing itself.
The unsullied are not traveling with the Dothraki. You can watch the preview videos to see Grey Worm going through a sewer entrance somewhere. There is also a castle in which Lannister and unsullied soldiers clash swords, a castle with Lannister banners all over the wall. That has to be Casterly Rock whether it is close or not. If Dany was smart, she would burn Casterly Rock to the ground to make a statement but my guess is that this doesn't happen.
At this point, we're no longer discussing leaks so I'm just going to speculate on trailers HBO has released
Yara and Theon are fucked. The sand snakes are fucked. Unsure about whether the unsullied are fucked.

Euron seems to be at Casterly Rock. I noticed because of the banners unless Kings Landing's sigil is the Lannister lion. Anyone knows?

Kinds Landing is now under Lannister rule as well, Cersei dropped the Baratheon name
another question: Is that really Emilia Clarkes voice at the beginning of the trailer? sounds different.

That's King's Landing. He seems to be celebrating something. If you watch the next scene in the trailer, he's presenting Ellaria Sand to Cersei.
That is true. I was hoping the King's Landing sigil would be a lion with a crown but never mind. If that shot is King's Landing then my theory of Euron getting killed at Casterly Rock collapses. Was trying to connect that shot with Dany's army invading the castle.
I also noticed the voice does not sound like Emilia Clarke. Maybe she had a cold or something lol
Oh shit you're right! Oh well I guess this is it for Ellaria Sand

Well, Euron, after building 1,000 ships and sailing around the entire continent in the span of a couple of episodes, just sailed his whole fleet right by an empty Dragonstone on his way to KL, allowing Dany to occupy it, right after a scene in which Jaime predicted Dany would land there when she arrived in Westeros, so it's pretty much par for the course. I wouldn't expect D&D's rendition of "The Great War" to make a lot of sense for anyone following along with a map.

Does the trailer just cover the next episode, or multiple future episodes?
Especially bad considering the books had the part with Loras taking back dragobstone from Stannis.
Cornballer

The next two
Daario clearly said Dany's forces need 1,000 ships to sail to Westeros. That sounds like a reasonable estimate.
Yara brings 100 ships according to her, but for whatever reason doesn't have 100 ships in any of these previews.
Euron's ships are enormous to make up for the fact that there's nowhere near 1,000.
So I guess...ships are expensive.
Netflix way obviously, but HBO gotta get more time out of it's GoT only subs.

Lol! I mean- I get that it's TV and there's a limited amount of time to tell the story of a war with a lot of moving parts, and you don't want to be so reverent to the map that it gets in the way of telling your story, but they could do better than this. The damn show opens up with a fly through of the map every episode, for cryin' out loud. That map is one of the main characters of the show.
It varies from show to to show for me. For GoT, which I see as being more 'event television', I kind of like having the week in between to stir the anticipation, (or, in the case of S5, to dull the pain).
After binge-watching the Leftovers earlier this month- that show would have killed me if I had to wait three years for it to all play out...
I like it every week because it gives us time to make fun of the stupid things in each episode.
I'm starting to think Lyanna Mormont will outlive everyone. D&D seem really proud of their single memorable creation. Gonna force this character into every scene they can it seems.
haha yes that would be more accurate.
D&D thangs.
That's the wrong gif. You need to find one where the other car stops moving halfway.
haha yes that would be more accurate.
"Didn't Cersei murder everyone we liked and destroyed our sole religion, Mad King style? Oh whatever, we'll support them anyway!"
D&D thangs.
She was in the books.
"Bow to one king whose name is Stark" was ripped straight from the books actually.
Oh shit I didn't even notice. Guess it's just mostly an original character then.
