Not sure piracy really enters into the equation. If you subscribe to HBO then you're paying anyway, just seeing it early. And if you don't subscribe you're pirating anyway, just pirating early. I'm going to avoid it to watch with friends live, though. | ||

At the same time i am not sure if the show really wants to make a female main character "evil" when we already have Cersei. Didn't as much imply an evil characer. Rather she just takes "tougher" decisions that results in human lifes being lost. Tyrion disagrees with her decision making. | ||

Tyrion disagrees with her decision making. Well not necessarily "evil" ofc, but even then. We already have Cersei who has these "tough decisions" covered. I am just not sure if the show would do two female characters who are like that. But that is a meta reason mor than anything. So storywise i think it could happen and would make sense (and be interesting tbh).

Jaime will follow a preggers Cersei to the ends of the earth and Tyrion will probably never side with Cersei (since she's basically everything he's trying to stop Dany from becoming). If that preggers Cersei dies Jaime will either blue-screen or just go completely mental, neither of which Tyrion would betray even a mad Dany for. Who knows, though, almost anything can happen. It seemed like Jaime was really coming around to rationality last episode until the baby revelation. Maybe Jaime will finally wise up if there's a big reveal that Cersei's lying about being pregnant. Oh i agree that Tyrion wouldn't side with Cersei. But i could see him side with Jaime when Jaime is somehow in danger because of Dany. Just a thought though, not really sure how we would get a situation like that, especially now that they decided they don't want Jaime as a captive at this storypoint. | ||

The cunt group does shit and get in problems. 2. Jon Snow asks for help. 3. Dragon comes for the help (1 or 2). It has some type of telepatic attachment to the true Targaryan heir - it can feel when they need help. 4. Dragon helps but Giant kills it in the proces. 5. Undead Dragon is acquired. 6. Undead Dragon kills the wall. This sequence of events could happen because they would involve cool action scenes and it would make it possible for the Night King to kill the wall while still answering why they didn't just destroy it years ago. My money is on dany coming with three dragons because teleportation logic | ||

I liked the episode a lot. no one mentioned how good davos is at smuggling. sure the patrol found him but he had an exit plan and played it like a cool cat. of course tyrion showing up fucked that plan but gendry smash was fun too. He got the Queen's most hated man in the capitol, in broad daylight. Fricking mastermind. | ||

I am just not sure if the show would do two female characters who are like that. But that is a meta reason mor than anything. So storywise i think it could happen and would make sense (and be interesting tbh). I guess it depends upon how much room there is for "new stories" in the season and whether they can distuingish Cersei from Dany. If for instance Cersei dies in epsiode 1-2 of S8, then I think there is room for a Dany vs Tyrion+someone else conflict. (not neccasarily war). But if the war against Cersei will take a while (she seems to be getting mercenaries), that battle + while walkers will fill out S8. If I was write the potential conflict it would be something like this: 1. Evil Cersei doesn't care about white walkers. Just want to kill her (human) enemies with a mercenary army. 2. Everyone else does care. Jamie kills her. 3. During episode 3-7 of S8. They are fighting the white walkers, but obviously that alone can't fill up every single episode. 4. While discussing how to beat them, Tyrion gives her advice, but Dany instead prefers a solution where she burns cities to kill white walkers. 10s of thousands of lifes are lost and that makes Tyrion completely lose trust on her. The above scenario would distuingish "Cersei evil" from Dany "evil" and the "evil" timelines won't overlap. I also think Cersei is not enough of a villain for her to survive more than 3 episodes into the new season. Given how fast the TV series is moving atm, we will already see battles in E1/E2 of s8 and those battles can't go on for repeat over 5-6 episodes. Someonething I have no clue about is Aryas role in this season. Perhaps she will take the face of a white walker and be the one who kills the night king? That would be satisfying and besides that I have trouble seeing her purpose. Because Jamie is destined to kill Cersei, and the Mountain will (probably) be killed by the Hound... Euron being killed by Arya??? That's probably a more satisfying kill to give Theon. | ||

On the other hand, it would be hilarious. 100% the skulls only As for next season. It'll be interesting how they want to play it out. I think someone in here mentioned doing the last three eps as a nonstop gritty war a la return of the king. I feel like unless they pull some twist and add some post-cersei conflict that's their only option. I'm honestly more interested in their plan for how to pull off the last 6. Especially with the talks to make final 3 1.5-2 hrs. | ||
