Could I get excluded from the spoiler board please? Done! I'm pretty assiduous about staying far, far away from any spoilers, but if there's an additional exclusion you can put in place, I'd like for you to do that for me, too! Many thanks!!! 48 days! I'm so excited!

I'm so excited! I added you to the Unsullied group so that you won't have access to the S8 Spoilers and Leaks Board. However, the speculation threads that discuss filming info and promotional material will still be available. I need to remember how I did that. LoL. It’s been a while. I was able to add her so no worries.

I'm so excited for the last season. I've tried to stay relatively unspoiled going into it.

Well - this is an old thread but due to recent leaks before the ending ... I'm going to hide out in here and talk about what's left of this finale season. *Edit: I know there may be more unsullied than this, I'll tag the few I know and maybe you can help me out alcasinoroyale ...

Because I enjoyed the season so much so far, I try to keep myself from reading leaks. I watched the episode for the first time today and although I tried to avoid the internet, I knew some people where not happy with this episode, even calling it worst episode ever and ridiculous stuff like that, and while watching I was like “ok, when is this bad stuff coming people were so outraged about?“ What I was trying to say, I know the ending will be controversial (who wants a boring ending everyone loves anyway?) but I don't want to be “preoutraged“ before I saw the episode with my own eyes.

Yeah I've found the deeper into the fandom I get, and the more involved in speculation and spoilers, the less I enjoy the actual show.
The fresher the reaction to the material, the more rewarding it is. Then you can take the scenes at face value and try to rid your mind a bit of preconceptions.
Not that I blame anyone for wading into that stuff, this show is such a phenomenon that the temptation to dive into the story and pick it apart is strong, but it almost never comes out on screen how it's been described, and I just don't find the process worth it.

Hopefully that didn't come across too 'My way is the best way' because it's really not necessarily.
Anyway I've enjoyed this season a lot, even though it has been somewhat flawed, and I can't believe this thing will be over in less than two weeks.
What will life be?

Good idea. This should be a good hideout until the 19th.
So we're getting a controversial ending after all... well, the cast had been warning us since 2017. Endings are important and if the choice is between bleak and powerful and sweet and forgettable, give me the former any time.
So excited about the next episode.

What I was trying to say, I know the ending will be controversial (who wants a boring ending everyone loves anyway?) but I don't want to be “preoutraged“ before I saw the episode with my own eyes. Good point. Knowing the plot, even without all the details, changes your perception entirely which is what I found I'd done with Season 7 because I followed leakbowl that time. There was the leak about Arya threatening to kill Sansa, and of course in that context it sounded awful and I was outraged. But, the actual scene played out differently and even though I knew it was a better outcome at the end of the season, I was still upset for awhile. It would have been better if I hadn't known and could process it on my own. The fresher the reaction to the material, the more rewarding it is. Then you can take the scenes at face value and try to rid your mind a bit of preconceptions. This is exactly what happened for me before, and this time, not knowing anything, I feel like my reactions are more genuine and my perspective is more positive even despite my complaints about a lot of the plot pacing choices I wasn't crazy about. So we're getting a controversial ending after all... well, the cast had been warning us since 2017. Yeah, I've been trying to steel my nerves for this as the show grew closer to starting. They did warn us, and now it appears everyone's divided and upset before it even ends. Part of me hopes this is just because none of us ever agree on how we think things should go, so it's normal, and part of me is genuinely very concerned that the story is going sideways in a direction even I couldn't understand. Mostly this comes from a few pieces of the story I'm still struggling to understand from 803 and 804 because I never expected the great war to be over already. This is the part that's making me very nervous about the finale.

Envie Well my current guess is, based on a couple of Emilia's interviews, that it's all leading up to a question about power. Maybe not a very pleasant question. Pretty much all of the characters have their own view of power and what it means (for some it's knowledge, for others it's violence, for others it's honor, morality or religion). I feel like it's all been building up to this. We even had a key Varys line last episode... "Perhaps the best ruler is one who doesn't want to rule" or something to that effect, which I think is pointing in that direction. Well, we know what Dany and Cersei want (despite being incredibly different characters): absolute power, the symbol of this being the Iron Throne. My guess is that's not going to end well for either of them.
