Martin has stated multiple times this would not be a good vs evil story
my hope is that this still is true but Jon snows story sure is shaping up that way

We will see I guess

Most effective way to not be a true good vs evil tale:

Dany loses Drogon to the NK. Dany or Jon dies fighting the NK, possibly Dany going up against Drogon-wight. They do the parley, Cersei rigs it as an ambush and kills off the other of Jon vs Dany in that. Jaime tries to intercede on behalf of the cause, but Jaime is killed by Cersei/the Mountain. The NK forces win out against the Dothraki, and roll south to KL.

Cersei holds off the wights with wildfire, and dragonglass ballista and scorpions take out the Night King and fellow WW.
Cersei goes down as the greatest ruler in the history of the 7 Kingdoms, having saved it from certain destruction. There are no remaining players in opposition. Her young child is the new heir. The new kingdom would be secular with an emphasis on science and research (as all the religions are gone, all the magic is gone, and Qyburn's studies would be the new topic of study at Oldtown). Cersei ushers in a new era, a Renaissance, and Qyburn is the De Vinci of that era.

That would suck, but it would also be a wild and much-discussed ending.

I just searched it. It's confirmed.

I swear HBO does this on purpose. It creates a buzz and their viewer numbers keep going up, even though a huge portion of the audience has been spoiled.

If this was Saturday, I'm waiting.

Don't think I can wait if I can find a link tomorrow.

I don't want to watch but it'll be hard not to. If it's a HD leak like some are saying then I think more people will watch. Adding to that, it's the second to last episode of the season so it has to be epic. Too many people will be talking about it.

I was thinking something similar. Jon and Dani save the 7 Kingdoms and defeat the WW. Afterwards, Cersei eliminates them through treachery and wins the Iron Throne.

The End.


No, not a spoiler, a crackpot theory. If there were spoilers in this thread I'd have no idea what they are as so much sh*t has been thrown up against the wall in these 90-some pages that who knows what is bull and what is actually a spoiler.

Oh, I'm sure it's just a ploy. How in the frick does anyone "hack" HBO over this? Sure, there might be loose lips from the production staff, but no direct hacks.

BTW just to clarify, I'm avoiding reading any spoilers. Just extrapolating from the current state of affairs. Remember, I'm the one who predicted Dany would climb into the fire for Melisandre to do her rituals, and also predicted that Randyll Tarly would stay loyal to the Tyrells, so that he would later meet up with Sam

Basically, I'm just throwing shite out there to see what sticks...

My latest bold prediction is that Cersei kills Jaime, not the other way around. I admit that most likely doesn't happen, but I do get that impression from the way it's setting up. Hell, just like any James Bond villain, she's already warned him (her lover) not to betray him. We know that the main villain is only killed by the main hero in tropes, they always kill their lovers when betrayed. Makes them even more villainous.

Came up with that one on my own. But I figured I wasn't the only one that had occurred to.

Be aware. Watching it live now on Twitch. I'd abandon ship.

Not that I'm going to say shite.

Yeah. I think I'm outta here till Sunday night too.

I don't have the unquenchable desire to see it early that so many others seem to have. I'll watch it when it airs Sunday night.

This thread and board has been covered with leaks.

I'm out until Sunday night. Maybe. Or there could be leaks for Ep 7.
