I am so excited for the new season! I accidentally came across some spoilers recently based on photos of the filming and I had to stop myself from looking for more.

I basically made this thread for AnnPerkins to come in and break things down.

I can't wait for July 16th, but I'm also sad because we only have two short seasons left.

Jon, Davos, Tormund and Tyrion better survive.

" Pilou Asbæk, who was introduced last year as Theon and Yara’s evil uncle Euron Greyjoy, recently bragged to Empire that in Season 7, he plans to become the biggest villain the North has ever seen. “After this season,” he boasted, “Ramsay’s gonna look like a little kid.” "

I feel like Jon must die. Who else could the lone wolf be?

I cannot wait! Who do you think the lone wolf is?
Could it be literal, like the last direwolf does something fantastic or the obvious reference to the Starks?

I've only watched it once - will need to get home before I can have repeated viewings, but I am beyond excited.

I am NOT A FAN of Sansa's closing line and the image of what appears to be Jon facing a bunch of white walkers on his own. "When the snows fall, and the white winds blow. The lone wolf dies, but the pack survives." This freaked me out too, but I feel like we know Jon has a really important role. I'm so excited, I can hardly stand it!

Thoughts after second viewing: -I love Jon in Wildling garb. He's a king who gets things done. -Littlefinger can go ahead and die now. We are no longer in need of his services. -Things aren't looking good for the Greyjoys. -I take Bran being near a heart tree in a fancy wheelchair to mean that he made it back home to Winterfell. Was that the Night's King next to him? -Dany looks lost. -I'm trying to figure out how Jaime and Cersei are going to factor into this season and to what extent. This didn't give us a lot. I'm wondering if her rule will be a very short one. Further viewings and research is needed. I love Jon in all garb. Or no garb. I was wondering who was standing next to Bran too!! Do we think Dany went back to the old Targaryan (can't think of the name right now... Dragonstone?) castle first? I'm assuming that's where she is. I'm thinking Cersei won't want anything to do with the battle to come and Jaime will. He looked like he was heading into battle. No garb. Definitely no garb. Not sure if this has already been answered, but yes - Dany is at Dragonstone. If you look at the castle as the gates open you can see the symbol of House Targaryen up top.

The lone wolf dies, but the pack survives." That's originally a quote Ned Start said to Arya. Early on it's something she remembers her father telling her. I'm choosing to believe they mean it more as a "if we stick together we'll make it" thought. Not that someone is going to die. And yes...I realize this is GOT and everyone dies, but I'm holding out hope the remaining Starks are in for the long haul.

ETA: And I see goldenlove beat me back here to say not Benjen while I was off looking for a picture. I think this guy is also a possibility. He's Maester Wolkan, and was maester to the Boltons at Winterfell. I'm thinking it's either him and Davos.

This is a good place to say that I started re-watching the series again this weekend and oh boy did I ever miss a bunch the first time around. I didn't pay attention at all.
Because if I had I would've fallen in love with Jon Snow right at the beginning instead of playing hard to get for so long. The show is so much better this time around.

leatherpants - I rewatched before Season 6 and intended to do so again while on maternity leave but it didn't happen. Trying to get going on Season 6 so we can watch it before 7 starts but at this rate it's not going to happen if I keep waiting for MH to watch with me. I was surprised when I rewatched and realized you can see Lady Olenna take a crystal from Sansa's necklace when they're talking during the purple wedding episode.

THis place is so glitchy today. I was trying to LT your post Nymeria. I am totally going to watch for that. I kind of want to stay on Episode 4 before everything goes to shit and Ned is keeping everyone on the straight and narrow.

leatherpants - I liked Ned. I forget how short-lived his time really was on the show. It seems like so much happened, but it's really only those few episodes before things get bad.

I definitely planned to re-watch the whole series but I don't see that happening now. We'll be doing it before the last season though. When I watched the first time, there were WAY too many names and places to keep track of. Now that I know everyone, I'm curious what types of things I missed.

MH and I finally started Season 6 last night. 10 episodes in 2 1/2 weeks is no problem for me alone, but getting through episodes goes much slower when trying to watch with MH so hopefully we can get through it in time.

I really liked the after show on HBO last season, I was bummed to see that it has been cancelled. I didn't know it was cancelled! I enjoyed getting an extra half hour of thrones talk and getting a different perspective on things.
