I do wonder if they might play one of the last episodes in the cinema over here.
Maybe I can set up a work showing...

Game of Thrones Season 8's Runtime Has Been Revealed
- Thread starter Lunar Wolf
- Start date
well, if S7 was anything to go on, content will indeed be lesser again
kkkk
I can't imagine that moment not playing out like a bad soap... looking forward to it!
The whole thing will end with Bran waking up.
The all of them being movie length talk never seemed realistic, at that point why not just spread it out some more? I guess there could be some savings in paying the actors and crew but that would be pretty petty.
Though four 80 minute episodes in a row isn't far off, good enough for me. Here's hoping the extended production time included a bit more time to smooth out the scripts, but definitely looking forward to it regardless. Director list has me hopeful.

I'd imagine episode 5 will be the giant battle one? With episode 6 tying up all the storylines. Seems the most likely scenario.
That's usually how they did it, like blackwater is the epic battle of S2 and it's followed by the finale
Season 7 was a bit different since we had Spoils of War at episode 4 which was the "big" battle but then we also had Beyond the Wall as episode 6, which also had a massive set piece.
It won't surprise me if season 8 has 3-4 massive set pieces
And Drogon better be there at the end collecting medals for his service.
Totally uncalled for man. Funny and brutally honest, but still uncalled for.
Episode 3 will probably be the battle of the north at Winterfell, while episode 5 will be the endgame battle at King's Landing with dragons burning it all down.
i know acting and all but the actor playing robin in season 1 was probably like 8 or something and had to suck the nipple of the actor that play his mum...
i don't know about you but it seems traumatizing @_@ at least i know i will be traumatized.
How many minutes of Hotpie baking pies and The Hound asking for chickens?
I was much more interested in where that subplot was going than anything regarding Jon Snow, Danny or the White Walkers in the books. Same for pretty much every other subplot, like why was Jaquen H'garr killing people trying to obtain a book on Dragons in the Citadel? Did Ramsay or Nance write that letter? Where did Euron get all his crazy magic shit from.
That last question is changed to 'Why is Euron so shit?' for the show.
Oh, nice. Glad we'll be getting roughly the same amount of content as a regular season.
The salt be huge even if the ending is perfect according to reasonable standards. People love to hate, and besides, it's literally impossible to satisfy ever fan. There are many contradictory hopes for the conclusion.
Someone should get real mad and call them out on Twitter.
They're not fake because they come straight from OCS, the French broadcasters who have an exclusive contract with HBO. This was a business panel so they're likely ballparks and not exact minute counts. Probably fairly accurate even if the actual runtimes are 58 mins, 61 mins, 76 mins, 82 mins, 79 mins, etc.
So instead of Lady Stoneheart we'll get Mr. Stoneheart instead?! What a twist!
I do agree that the way his story concluded in the show was extremely limp and unsatisfying. They clearly had no idea what to do with him.
Ah, Game of Thrones fans have finally stooped down to the level of Sherlock fans? Theorizing the impossibly bad shit in the last season has to be a fakeout because why would they ever write something that bad.
I mean, 5% this actually happens.. but this seems a lot more plausible than LF getting punked like he was. Not really in the undead Stoneheart tier
I like that the double Ds cut Lady Stoneheart, it's completely unnecessary and one of the bloated reasons GRIMM doesn't know how to close his fucking story. Too many unnecessary plot points still roaming for shits & giggles
I expect the last episode will just be a medal ceremony. Replace Han and Luke with dragons and we good to go
Would've preferred if they hadn't truncated and rushed through last season, even if it came at the expense of fewer grandiose setpieces, so hopefully this season doesn't try to sprint through things quite as much.
That was a fake breast, for what it's worth. :lol
Fuck me, I'm ready for this. LET'S GO.
Wow, that Littlefinger theory sure is... something.
It does make me sad that most of the clever/devious characters are dead now. Littlefinger, Tywin, the Queen of Thorns, Old Man Frey, the High Sparrow and Doctor Bashir Martell. I always liked the political plotting more than the fight/battle scenes.
Only Tyrion and the Spider are left, and they're on the same side. Cersei and the necro-maester had better step up their game if they want to compete.
Littlefinger's death was a huge disappointment. It seemed like D&D didn't know what to do with him after killing Joffrey and just killed him off because they got bored of having this loose end dangling around. I was hoping he'd beat Arya to defeating Walder Frey. His whole character motivation was Cat Stark, so it seemed odd that after the Red Wedding he was just, "Whatever, I guess she's dead now - but what about her hot daughter yo!".
Regardless of the ending, the salty internet rage will make TLJ threads look like a kintergarten argument.
