I refuse to overthink the storyline of the final season of Game of Thrones. These are some thoughts that have wandered through my mind, though.
1) Some of my favorite characters are going to die violent deaths.
2) I will be bereft for a time.
3) Dragons are going to kick ass on both sides of the war, and there will most likely be fratricide among the flying reptiles.
4) A child conceived on the eve of battle between the living and the dead could end up ruling the seven kingdoms.
5) There should be an award in recognition of the character that’s demonstrated the most growth. I vote for Arya. No, Sansa. Jaime? Wait, Bran isn’t even human anymore. Does that count as growth?
6) Is it okay to like Theon now? He’s let us down so many times.
7) Back to the dragons–the Game of Thrones dragons are, without a doubt, the most perfectly rendered dragons ever.
8) Tyrion–I hope he lives.
9) Cersei–meh, not so much.
10) I’d like to see Brienne fall in love with someone who loves her passionately. Someone who adores her and lets her know that every single day of her life.

I confess, I have never even had a desire to watch this series. In fact, I’m almost certain that I didn’t realize it was a series until after starting to hear about it as a video game–which I have no interest in either! I know many are enthralled by GOT though. What drew you in to begin watching it?

I’d read the novels, and loved them, but I was reluctant to watch the series because the book is ALWAYS better. My son convinced me to watch and I loved it.

You’re right, TV/movies often tend to be disappointing after reading the book. It’s especially nice when you find yourself pleasantly surprised and love both!

The plots of the series and the books diverged around season 3, but they’re all well done.

I fully expect this season to leave me emotionally devastated.

Huge fan girl here, and since we’ve had sooooo much time between the last few seasons I think I’ve come up with every possible end game theory imaginable. None of which will probably come to fruition… which is why we love this show. You never know what will happen!
And I know I’m probably in the minority here…. but last night’s epic battle left me a little disappointed. I think I was expecting a bit more story.

I haven’t watched it yet. My husband isn’t feeling well, and we decided to wait until he felt better. 😳 it’s killing me. Did you read the novels, as well?

Well, Martin is still writing the last book in the series… and it will be very different from the shows ending.

I recall reading that one of the books was lost in a fire and he had to start from scratch. Book 5, I think.
