Making this thread was just an excuse to report that the Azure Window, has fallen into the sea.

That's crazy about the Azure Window! What a bummer.
Anyone else going to the live concert event they're touring? I have tickets for early April.
July 16th will be the date of the premiere, according the FB page.
This was everything I could have hoped for. The featured musicians were charismatic and highly skilled. The evening was well-staged and the visuals were evocative without overwhelming the music. It was like compressing all the emotional high points of the series into 2 hours, so it was surprisingly moving as well.Quote:

A series of TV films with the Tales of Dunk and Egg wouldn't feel like a steal, but I doubt they're aiming for that.
That's no surprise. Westworld may last one more season, and that's about it at this point for big audiences in HBO shows as far as I'm aware.Quote:

Yes, they got four different writers to develop four different spinoff concepts (different Westeros periods too, probably). They're most likely not gonna greenlight all four to series, though. I think they just don't know what the best spinoff would be so they're developing multiple ones and will pick the best one.
Game of Thrones is by far HBO's biggest hit. They are going to stretch out Martin's work as far as it goes.
I feel bad for anyone who still believes that he'll ever finish the books.
Hahah this has to be a first in the history of literary adaptations.
At one point I felt bad for Martin because of the pressure, then I realized he can't finish the books because he's too busy spending millions of dollars to build a swimming pool full of Jello or whatever he's doing.

The previous record holder for longest Game of Thrones episode was Season 6's excellent finale "The Winds of Winter," which ran 68 glorious wildfire-igniting, sept-exploding, Tommen-jumping minutes. According to HBO Now's listings, Episode 6 of Season 7 will best that by three minutes, running a total of 71 minutes. But dwarfing that will be Season 7's finale, which clocks in at a whopping 81 minutes. That's like 33 percent more Game of Thrones than a typical episode!
Wow 33% more in one episode!!??! Too bad we're getting 30% less season.
More killer, less filler.Quote:

Arya's second scene was kind of unintentionally funny given how dirty and coarse every other soldier we've ever seen on the show has been.
Yeh, the Hound seems like a completely different person now. That whole seen at the house was incredible - especially him reflecting on what he did to those two nice people who took him and Arya in out of kindness.
Had no idea that was Ed Sheeran until this morning.
It sure was!Quote:

There were fewer identity shifts than usual this episode. I think the White Walkers must be getting bored with changing faces all the time.Quote:
