At worst, Jon or Bran become the new Night King, if they go that route.
You think this show has a happy ending?

While I agree with the sentiment, we really need to chill with the use of this gif, I think.

how do you get "all starks living" = happy ending, when many people will be dying before it is all said and done.
and the series done jumped the rails a long time ago. that quote can be assumed to no longer apply.

Well season 7 was pretty positive. It won't be some Disney ending, but I think it will land better than people might expect.
I think that anyone that is expecting GOT to end with the Night's King sitting the throne, or Cersei winning, or the Stark's being eradicated, or any other crazy "insert Ramsey taunting Theon gif" might be disappointed. Likewise, anyone expecting Jon and Dany to live happily ever after with some baby dragons on the way ..well moot point because no one expects that.
I think their will be quite a few characters killed, including some of the primary roles. I think that order of things in Westeros is going to be forever changed. But I have also come to think the GRRM didn't provide a whole hell of a lot of details past what he outlined for the Winds of Winter and that a lot of the foreshadowing of the no happy ending is over hyped. I think GRRM even somewhat recently kind of softened that rhetoric and said the end would be "bittersweet" or maybe that was one of the actors.

Kinda drunk on a Tuesday, so letting this one fly.
Like many others, we're rewatching the series as prep for S8 and right now we're on S3...and you just know Ygritte's thang had to have stank. Wandering all those days north of the wall and for Jon Snow to bury his face in that peach pit BEFORE they decided to take a bath? Come on, man.

So that....yeah. That's Hollywood broseph. It happens everywhere.
Example. Sara Connor is literally on the run for days with Reese. Sweating. Bleeding. More sweating trying to outrun Arnold. Then bam. Hot, unbridled, unprotected, sects on a crappy, seedy, hotel bed. So the pragmatist in me is like "hold on, that's going to cause a UTI or a yeastie, hygiene kids, hygiene".
While your point is well received and valid, enforcement would cock block most sex scenes in cinema.

I guess I was more getting at your view of seemingly thinking nothing more bad would happen to the Starks. While I don't think Arya dies, to say I can't imagine it happening would go a bit too far. I expect Jon will die. I guess I'd say any character dying is on the table and would not surprise me.
Some of our pics from Iceland near GoT features.

That is fantastic
Have to give this show props for one thing. Not long after Tommen is crowned, they make him the biggest b**ch in Westeros when the sparrows come in, and make you wish for Joffrey again.
Well done, jerks.
Well done, jerks.
No one ever wished for Joffrey again.
I certainly did.
When the Faith Militant is blocking Tommen's path to the sept, I sure as hell wished he went full Joffrey on them.

There's a difference between wanting Joffrey back and wanting Tommen to unleash zombie mountain
Lol
Tommen needed Tywin. Things would have been drastically different had Shae stayed on that boat. But it wouldn't have been as good of show
Tommen would have made an excellent figurehead king with the right small council

I think Arya is a goner. How many times has heard some iteration of "only death can pay for life", with her being on the undeserved-benefit end of it over and over? She's going to sacrifice herself to save John + Baenerys + baby, clutching Needle as a salute to John's gift in S1.Goose06 said:

But first, to come full circle, she needs a love interest that doesn't know what to do so she can say "stick it with the pointy end."

Still not sure how he measured 5'10" at the combine.
Based on the interview someone posted of him on Colbert, it'll be a Trump bashing session

I posted a question on the season 2 thread so I wouldn't distract this thread again. But anyone who would go over there and help me out I would appreciate it.
