I've been thinking about how Drogon is a stupid name for a Dragon, and then I realized Drogon is a portmanteau of "Dragon" and "Carl Drogo". So if it wasn't some mighty Valyrian god, I'd like to believe that this is the case. | ||

Gwendoline Christie (Brienne) has done artistic nudes before; she would've done them for GoT. I guess the reason they didn't do a full frontal is because Gwendoline Christie has an average body when she's supposed to be a hulking mass of muscles (for a woman) underneath all that armor. | ||

Why is she supposed to have massive muscles? She looked like she had some strength, dont need to be huge and ugly lol. | ||

She also says she regrets doing those and I read (but can't seem to find a source, so take this with a grain of salt) that she has a no nudity clause in her contract. But the biggest tell is the fact that they deliberately didn't show the face in the same shot. It's just what happens in TV/movies | ||

I think any information found in the game of thrones wiki (not awoiaf) is ok for this thread since it's linked in the OP. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + you naughty devil you  I haven't read the books yet and why are you opening up a spoiler!Why is everyone using spoilers to discuss a spoiler free thread hahahaha it's so redundant stawwwwp it. There is nothing with making random guesses on the plot that might not be discovered yet that turn out true or not true, that's why we have a thread to discuss stuff, it's interesting!

The dragons don't have names in the show, or at least they haven't been said. Their names are about as small of a spoiler as a spoiler can be, but it's the rules. | ||

Doesn't she say the names? I thought she said them when she was at the 'free city' thing with the traders. | ||

Dracarys means dragonfire in High Valyrian. | ||
