    Other than the writing nomination I think most people would be happy with the nominations.

    Just as long as you learn of the surprises in context.

    I've read a lot of books but I always get stuck about a couple hundred pages into the first game of thrones book.

    The Arya situation with the lack of the white horse confused me as well.

    I watched the first 10 minutes of The Long Night back to back using both iTunes and HBO Now, they both looked about the same. I could tell what was going on with both.

    Season 8 is now available on iTunes. I haven't checked it yet, but the episode "The Long Night" may finally be more viewable now than it was on HBO since the iTunes version would probably be better bitrate.

    I enjoyed it very much, I was intentionally spoiled on this and I'm not sure if I liked more or less as a result. The execution was better than I was expecting based on the spoilers (all of which were true).

    having seen the links I can confirm that it just means that it tells what happens to those characters. Not all if any of them die.

    I'm sure they will provide the hundreds of millions of dollars needed for HBO to do that.

    I've hated Dany for 3 seasons now, I was expecting her to break but not as bad as she did. And the reason Jon won't return her affections is entirely the aunt thing. I was most upset with Jaime actually returning to King's Landing to be with Cersei. I thought he has changed more than that.

    Last week the scorpions took out a badly injured dragon who wasn't expecting to be in danger. This week they weren't able to take out a healthy dragon who knew to be on the look out. I think this is the difference in the effectiveness these two weeks.

    Throughout the past 2 seasons Dany's advisors kept talking her out of just burning King's Landing. Dany just lost too much to keep her from doing that.

    It is in King's Landing. The city that was just destroyed.

    If they saw the cup before the episode aired they would have probably cgi'd it out. That would be a very basic effects shot for them.

    Although it would be hard to consider Tyrion to be a threat in that situation.

    Gilly doesn't know that Jon is their child, just that the two were secretly married. She has half the story.

    I don't remember Sam ever telling Gilly.

    According to Collider tonight's episode was "The Last Of The Starks".

    I did get that Jon was trying to get past Viserion who was guarding the gods wood. I have no idea if Jon saw Arya or not.

    Briene would at least know she is a very capable fighter. And of course Bran who knows everything.

    If a character needs to be assassinated it is a good bet that the character who has been training to be an assassin for 8 seasons would be the one to do it. That being said I don't expect Arya to kill Cersei now when I would have a week ago. I don't see her killing both Cersei and the Night King.

    Other than macro blocking and the stream dropping to SD I could tell what was going on.

    Game of Thrones Season 8 (2019)

    Part of the problem with the streaming quality probably had to do with millions of people trying to watch the stream at once last night. It is probably better now. And my calibration posts were addressing the complaints of it being too dark. I actually had more problems with SOLO being too...

    Your display doesn't have to be professionally calibrated. Using a setup disc like Disney WOW or Spears and Munsil should get you enough of the way there. This episode didn't look great but if your display is set up well you should be able to at least make out what is happening and to whom.

    Game of Thrones Season 8 (2019)

    The image was comprehensible if you properly set up your display with a calibration disc or if your screen is professionally calibrated. I could tell what was going on the entire episode on my projector, my problem was compression artifacts and the stream dropping in resolution. If your...

    I called that Wonderful episode, I think I enjoyed it more than End Game which I liked quite a lot. And yes the streaming quality was terrible, the stream switched to SD in the middle of the episode.
