I know it's been said many times, but after so many seasons and such a large build up, I have a hard time believing I'm going to be satisfied with just 6 episodes left to tie everything together. I don't think there's enough time.

The episodes are long though, rumour was:
  • Episode 801: 60 minutes
  • Episode 802: 60 minutes
  • Episode 803: 80 minutes
  • Episode 804: 80 minutes
  • Episode 805: 80 minutes
  • Episode 806: 80 minutes

That's 7 1/2 hours of content, which is pretty much 3 long movies worth of episodes.

Have a feeling that will be enough to wrap it up.

Looks fantastic. Over seven hours is more than enough time to tell a story properly. Doesn't mean they will, cleaning up George Martin's mess isn't easy but that's a lot of screen time left. LOTR extended version clocks in at just over nine hours. Also season seven is much better binged. There are still some time travelling issues and the more cynical viewer will still find things but that's the way to do it. Can't believe we're just two months out.

Do we know yet whether the episodes are going to run every week, or if they're taking a week off?

Emilia Clarke tells the New Yorker about suffering two brain aneurysms shortly after S1 filming wrapped.

just read this story... pretty unbelievable to go through that and not show its affects in her performance, at least from what i can recall from S2

she was never my favorite character or actor, but she definitely has my deep respect for sharing her story and using her fame as a way to help others who are going through similar health challenges.

having read the story "Mother of Dragons" seems a very fitting moniker indeed

Speculation that one of the 6 hidden iron thrones is somewhere in the mountains here.

The Iron Throne would make a bitchin' office chair or, with some modification, quite the toilet.

Looks like the Canadian one was in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia.

Yeah tumbler is way out there. I would have thought with the connection the Calgary area had with GoT it would be around here.

Plus it must have used energy and carbon to get that out there, I'm surprised the good environmentally conscious denizens of BC didnt just throw it in the lake in protest.

Here's the article for the couple who found it.

They work in tourism in the area and got a hot tip from a reporter in Calgary. Kind of cheap in my opinion. Would of been cooler if people actually looking for it found it.

They haven't even seen one episode, maybe they'll become fans now!
