At this stage, more than previous seasons, it's very difficult to imagine one of the big characters being killed off. Maybe one of Jaime or Cersei but otherwise?

Varys?They hinted at it in that convo with Mel

Varys is second-tier as far as the cast go, lots of characters at his level could be killed off, but it would be a big shock to lose one of the remaining Lannisters or Starks at this point, let alone Dany.

thought it was strange that they brought in sean bean to play viserion, feels like it could get confusing

spoiler alert i guess but it has been m/l established for certain that ned was a faceless man. as i see it there are 2 directions they might be taking this. the first is that ned switched faces with littlefinger and littlefinger was executed and ned is still littlefinger. the second is that ned switched faces with littlefinger and littlefinger was executed and now ned is every character. now that we know the cast list for the final season is just sean bean i am leaning towards the latter.

night king sounds like "ned king" a bit.
― Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Tuesday, 22 August 2017 13:36 (six years ago) link
It's even more impressive since Sean Bean died in 2013. He must have filmed all these scenes in advance.

Here's an "ask the expert" style fun fact for you casual viewers out there:
Ned Bean's character Sean is actually missing not just his face but his entire head, putting him at a elite level that Arya may never reach without formal training. We'll see if she gets there!

OMG re that "Ned aint ded" theory:And this would make sense, because there are a number of clues in the books that point toward Ned's body looking different after he was executed. Sansa points out that the head on the Red Keep doesn't look like her father's, and Catelyn Stark notes that his bones look smaller.
And in a recent episode Sansa and Arya looked at his statue in the crypt and scoffed "they couldnt even get his face right" or something similar.

Didn't Nedfinger kiss Sansa a couple of seasons ago before handing her over to Bolton?

Front page of yahoo is always pretty amazing for "this new fan theory about game of thrones will blow your mind" posts.
The one I saw today was that Gendry was actually the son of Robert and Cersei and the "baby who looked like Robert" hadn't died but his death was faked by her.

anyways, that this even seems remotely plausible is a good sign of how utterly dumbfuck this show has gotten in the past two seasons
I think it's more like... just ppl being dumbfucks but agree to disagree.

but arguably you learn more about these characters in this one exchange that doesn't even include CGI for some weird reason than you do in months worth of shitty episodes
Baratheon: you want to know the horrible truth? I don't even remember what she looked like. I only she was the one thing i ever wanted. someone took her away from me. and 7 kingdoms couldn't fill the hole she left behind.
Cersei: i felt something for you once, you know.
B: i know
C: even after we lost our first boy, for quite a while, actually. was it ever possible for us? was there ever a time, a moment?
B: No. *cersei chugs wine* Does that make you feel better or worse?
C: it doesn't make me feel anything.
yes i know i am blowing your minds, that early game of thrones is better than whatever this is, much, much better. so much better. *chugs wine*
