What's new

Game Of Thrones

Also, what's going on with the dragon glass? The key to everything is there, but they've never gone back to that.

Next season we'll see the dragons making dragon glass and valyrian steel in prep for the battle against the white walkers that will come the season after.

I'm pretty sure dragons don't have anything to do with making dragon glass. It's just another name for obsidian, which is completely natural.

It's called frozen fire in the books so that may hint at something else.

I thought it was called dragon glass in the books
 
Even in the real world obsidian is made from volcanic activity. Apparently in the books it's from Valaryia, where they had a huge volcano destroy everything. I always assumed, based on the name, that dragon fire could make it as well. Hard to draw a parallel to obsidian in the real world since we don't have dragons that we can try to make obsidian from.

Anyway, I expect there to be ample dragon glass by season 8 for people to use against the white walkers.
 
They only just did Children of the Forest this sesaon becuase of how much $$$ they cost.

were they that expensive? huh. I'm so sad that they're all (apparently) dead. Really enjoyed their existence & storyline.

Welp... The Winter is Ending...


HBO has confirmed what Game of Thrones fans never wanted to hear: The fantasy-thriller phenomenon will be coming to an end after Season 8.

Recently HBO renewed the series - adapted from George R.R. Martin's novels - for a shortened seventh season consisting of seven episodes.

The eighth season will bring the saga to a close. The number of episodes for that last cycle has not been determined, HBO programming chief Casey Bloys said Saturday at the Television Critics Association's summer conference. "We'll take as many as the (producers) will give us," he said.

After that, a spinoff remains a possibility.

"We're open to it, the (producers) aren't opposed to it, but there's no concrete plans right now," Bloys said.


"Game" won't be back with its seventh season until next summer, missing the deadline for the 2017 Emmy competition, which it routinely dominates. Last year, "Game" scored a dozen Emmys.

"It's always better to win more Emmys," Bloys said. "But the main goal is to do the best show possible for our subscribers and fans."
 
Well apparently HBO officially announced it today at the Television Critics Association's conference. I'm just reporting what I read.

When I said "it is known" I was making a little joke based on the Dothraki who say that a lot for things that are common knowledge.

Common knowledge but also not true. So if that is a similarity too, maybe we can expect further seasons past 8th.
