To do a TOJ scene, you would need specially trained stunt doubles, armor, props, a Tower, horses, etc. It would be an extremely expensive scene...and relatively short.



Not if they stuck to the dream Ned had in GOT. It would be no different than any other scene. We never witnessed any fighting in his dream

I'm with Cotton -


How expensive could it have been to have one armored young Ned ahorse and six other waxing/waning "wraiths" ala CGI confronting 3 armored (elaborately, so, I'll concede) men in front of a tower in a desert landscape...with NO fighting involved.

Cut to young Ned at a dying Lyanna's bedside in a castle-like tower room...

There is no excuse for omitting this scene based on $.

I agree with Cotton, as well. It could be done with limited resources.

I suspect that the TOJ will be in the show at some point, and I wonder if there are going to go all out in that season.

Yeah, that's all they had to do. Just show the tower, Lyana dying (only show her face), and then the "Promise me, Ned". Wouldn't have to make it extravagant really.
