Game of Thrones Season 8 Could Be Delayed Until 2019, But All Movie-Length
While Game of Thrones Season 8 could still be delayed until 2019, there is also a chance each episode could be feature-length!

In news that is unlikely to surprise any of the Westerosi faithful, Game of Thrones will meet the Many-Faced God of TV Death with season 8... and it will only enjoy six episodes at that.
Casey Bloys, HBO president of programming, confirmed to EW in July 2016 that season 8 will be the final year, as showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss had long stated was their intention. And showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss confirmed in March 2017 that Game of Thrones season 8 will continue to the letter of that original plan and end the series with six final weekly installments.
“It’s only going to be six episodes for the final season,” Benioff said during a featured speaker at SXSW panel. “From the beginning we’ve wanted to tell a 70-hour movie. It will turn out to be a 73-hour movie, but it’s stayed relatively the same of having the beginning, middle and now we’re coming to the end. It would have been really tough if we lost any core cast members along the way, I’m very happy we’ve kept everyone and we get to finish it the way we want to.”
But now perhaps the most fearful news yet... Game of Thrones season 8 could potentially not air until 2019. Still, it is not all doom and gloom. Consider the latest bit of intel that suggests every episode could be movie-length.
Latest Game of Thrones Season 8 News
While Den of Geek was unable to attend this year's Con of Thrones, many fans were, and one revealed that in addition to the season 7 finale being 82 minutes (meaning it's the longest episode in the series' history), the entirety of Game of Thrones season 8 could also be feature-length. We are talking about 80 minutes, 90 minutes, or more. It might even make a possible year-delay worthwhile...

Game of Thrones Season 8 Release Date
While chatting with HBO about the final seasons of Game of Thrones, Entertainment Weekly learned from Casey Bloys that the eighth season might not air until 2019 instead of its expected summer 2018 bow.
When EW asked if a 2019 premiere date is a possibility, Bloys said, "Yeah. They have to write the episodes and figure out the production schedule. We’ll have a better sense of that once they get further into the writing."
While this could mean nothing, given that EW is the outlet with nigh exclusive access to Game of Thrones' production in its later years, and that editor James Hibberd brought this question up by himself, it is also probable this is the first rollout of the prospect to get fans adjusted to the idea of a truly long wait for the final episodes. And then they make it official after season 7...
On the upside, we were at the San Diego Comic-Con panel last year where Miguel Sapochnik hinted he’d be back for season 8,and Dan Weiss nodded his head in approval. We wouldn’t be shocked if he directs an unusually high number of the episodes for that season after filming the double whammy of "The Battle of the Bastards" and "The Winds of Winter" in season 6's final two episodes.
I liked Oz for a while... Got tired of it a couple seasons before the end.... But it's writing was never on par with the Wire's writing...and they didn't have any characters on par with the top wire characters. That's no disrespect by the way, just saying that one was a good show and one was beyond good.

If we get longer episodes. Then im cool with it. But kind of wish that boardwalk empire got the same treatment for their last season. Shit was rushed and shipped out.

I think that's the twist by the writers. Make us think there's some conflict between Sansa & Jon.
However, those Stark siblings love each other. It's not a Jaimie & Cersie type of love but you know what I mean. You see how Jon one-hand choked Lil' Finger. Ayra was eating and drinking like a dude but the moment she heard Jon was in Winterfell she dropped that shit and headed north... They down for each man.
In the end I can see Sansa playing Lil Finger and ultimately killing him herself. Increasing her body count to 2.
H-Funk, you my dude, but don't you ever, ever, ever ever ever ever ever come in here with some edited pictures when the real pictures are already posted on here. BGOL is not PG-13, Capice?
Just adding the link and additional, edited ones to bump the thread so people can see the unedited joints. Just playing my part, fam'.
I bumped the Nathalie thread so people could check out the unedited joints there too. Got 2 have 2 avenues 2 see the ass & titties.
Yeah he's right. Most importantly you could have left that last photo out. Nobody wants to see dudes ass.I bumped the Nathalie thread so people could check out the unedited joints there too. Got 2 have 2 avenues 2 see the ass & titties.
Updated the photos - got rid of that one.
So he should have committed suicide to save his sister?
Shhhyeah...and Reek too.
Oberyn Martell rolling around in his grave
If those freak bitches quit trying to fuck in the middle of the campaign... Circe gon let the Mt. fuck em all to death...
Remember that one chic said she wanted the mountain
He should have sent her to Dany. Fuck around and come home to Littlefinger King in the North.
Not for long especially when Jon comes back riding dragons.
Quote from reddit
In the preview for episode 3 we see that Jon and Dany finally meet. I think that Jon will ask to see the Dragons and when he does, instead of acting aggressive like they do for most people, they will sense the Targ blood in him and treat him like they treat Dany, which will make Dany be all like "Who are you really?".
Something like that.
----------------------------
Dany, "bend the knee"
Jon, "turn around and bend both of yours"

People said the same about Lost, Galactica, Breaking Bad, The Wire, OZ, and let's not forget about all the classics from the 70's and 80's. I don't think there is such a thing as the best show.
Grey Worm the next day was like.... now what mudufuckas??!!!
I think she's very aware of her own hypocrisy, and so probably is most of her audience... but she wears the crown, so some are going to follow her blindly and some are going to follow her out of fear and knowledge of what she can do to them if they don't. They remember what happened to Ned when he spoke up.
I'm betting though that at some point, Nymeria will show up to help her old fam though. Probably against the white walkers and their crew when they make it to Winterfell, her and ghost will be ripping zombies to shreds. Hopefully they both make it to the end.
There aren't many chicks that I would fuck unprotected, splash in, and then not give a damn about possible pregnancy. Missandei/Nathalie is one of them though. I know it's stupid, and she may be crazy behind the scenes, but I'd be like, fuck it, if somebody has to carry the seed, I can live with it being her!
I didn't like it when Dany threatened Varys. Varys probably has the most knowledgeable political mind of anyone on the show. He served under The Mad King and Robert. He was around and aware when Tywin was running things. He knows how to rule; and more importantly, he knows that he'll never be king. He knows the political history. If you want to survive, you listen to Varys. He has spies everywhere. It would have been a huge mistake on her part if she would have killed him. Tyrian is smart, even he knows Varys is valuable as f*ck to the cause. I look at Varys as being "Hand to the Hand."
This is all true... but remember... Dany had NEVER confronted Varys about his own role in all the events of the last 6 seasons.
Put yourself in Dany's shoes for a second....
Varys plays both sides. Very often.
To stay alive.Before his speech last night, "self-preservation" was always his #1 primary motive for EVERY SINGLE THING he does.
Granted, deep down inside, he's got a good heart... however, he hasn't always been able to STAND TALL and 'to do the right thing' whenever HIS back is against the wall.
As a result, 'his loyalty' tends to flip-flop based on any given situation... which could change (180 degrees) tomorrow.
That's not good.
You cannot DEPEND on someone like that.... especially 'when the chips are down'... or 'the odds might (temporarily) turn against you'. So Dany 'cornered him' and wanted Varys to prove his true loyalty. (Just like Khal Drogo, Tyrion, Jorah Mormont, Greyworm, Daario Neharis & ALL the Dothraki have done before him... over the last 6 seasons.)
Last night, it was just Varys' turn.... 'to bend the knee'.
Just my opinion.

I see your point for sure. But, if a crazy person is king, that's a stressful situation for you to be in as an advisor to that king. Then, that king gets killed, and the next king thinks that you are valuable. So he wants you on the team. You can't say no. So, you serve. To everyone else, you look like a flip-flopper. Everyone who serves a king (especially a bad one) are going to be under some stress. I understand why Dany did it. But, she should understand that it was Robert who pulled the strings in her case. She's going to have Varys do the exact same thing that he did for her father and Robert. She didn't have to tell him what she would do to him, he already knew. He saw Ned's dad get burnt the f*ck-up by her dad. Self-preservation has to be his motive, because all of the great rulers can be crazy.This is all true... but remember... Dany had NEVER confronted Varys about his role in all of this.

She is dealing with the backlash. Only 3 of the 7 kingdoms are on her side and this was before House Frey was wiped out. Euron Greyjoy is an "arms length" ally at most and of course the Westerlands have her back. She is begging Randall Tarly to side with her and, even though he is an asshole, he ai't going to rollover willingly on the Tyrrells. Speaking of that, did you guys see Billy from Black Sales as Dickon Tarly? They recast that role.
