/r/gameofthrones
The system has been simplified to have only two (optional) tags – [Book Spoilers] and [Leaks].
This subreddit is meant to be a safe place for fans to read and talk about the TV series and books regardless of how many episodes or books you have seen or read.
Most posts on r/gameofthrones no longer require a bracketed spoiler tag. Exceptions are [Leaks] and [Book Spoilers] which pertain to House of the Dragon. This is used to define what the post is about, and to what level of discussion is allowable in the comments. Standard posts without a spoiler tag will allow for all discussion excluding leaks and HOTD book spoilers.
Spoiler Tag examples are as follows:
[BOOK SPOILERS] Looking forward to seeing this event at the end of HOTD on screen!
[LEAKS] Cast member spotted on set

Why deanerys killed varis
He loves them together so much. And Robb is one of his favorite characters 😩 we’re on S3E4 now!
I’m going to still record his blind reaction… but man this is going to wreck him.
All the Game Of Thrones Spin-offs that have been discussed and put into development, production, and either shelved or canceled by HBO. There are currently 6 projects in active development.
My gf said for months how she would never watch GOT it’s not her style or what she’s into to bloody & gory & to long of episodes & I’ve finally convinced her to give it a shot & she loves it already on season 3
Ps: waiting for the red wedding to make her hate the show for a lil 🔜 🤣
Damn, that has to be the best show I’ve ever seen. I laughed, cried and stressed for every season. But I must say I’m disappointed of the last season, mostly the last two episodes because they make no sense for me. Still, I loved this show and I can’t wait to forget it a bit to rewatch it. In the meantime, I’ll start reading the books.
If Sansa or Arya get children, they'd be either bastards, or bear their father's name. Bran is the 3 eyed Raven. Do 3 eyed Ravens have children? Lady Karstark and Greyjoy, if they got children, they'd be either bastards, or bear their father's name. So did their houses survive?
Almost everyone universally agrees that Season 8 was the worst, but if you were given the opportunity to "fix" how GoT ultimately ended up and had access to all the actors and resources you required, which point in which season would you start?
This version takes place a few months after the previous version but also features some changes based on suggestions I heard.
Overview of the War in this scenario:
Following the Death of Robert Baratheon, Viserys Targaryen declared himself King from Dragonstone, he wed Arrianne Martell and promised house Hightower the Lord Paramountcy of the Reach, houses Velaryon and Celtigar also joined his cause. Renly abandoned Storm's End fleeing to Summerhall from which he sent a raven to Viserys informing him that if he promised Renly the stormlands, Renly could deliver the Allegiance of Summerhall, Griffin's Roost, and House Selmy. Viserys accepted.
With some Lannister forces tied up in the Crownlands, Robb could afford to send some men north to retake Winterfell - He then marched into the West Seizing Lannisport and much of the Lannister wealth, he now camps outside of the Rock.
House Tyrell did not join the war however Joffrey was still killed(spoiler: Varys), Tommen ascended the throne with Tyrion his hand.
Aegon would later land in Westeros, he now seized much of the Cape of Wrath and wages war against Stannis and Viserys in the Stormlands. the Tyrells declared for Aegon seeing that Viserys promised House Hightower the Reach.
Euron and the Ironborn siezed both fair isle and the shield islands, his plans are currently unkown however Aegon Believes he is to request Daenery's hand in marriage while VIserys believes that he will join Aegon and attempt to sieze Oldtown and the Arbor.
The Vale Houses are planning to mobilize to march west and Support Robb Stark - however Lady Arryn has forbid this, LF plans to take Robin Arryn away from Lysa and have Cat pretend to be Lysa in order to take "legitimate" control of the Vale.
Newer/Improved Version of the Map:
I’m 20 min into episode 1 of season 1 lol, but I wonder if there are different type of creatures in GOT. Are there witches, trolls, elves, werewolves, vampires, zombies, goblins, unicorns, dragons, fairies, angels, mermaids etc? Or are there just humans? And is there magic, like telekenesis, flight, spellcasting, teleportation and like shooting energy blasts like they do in Wandavision for example?
I completely understand that she wanted to know what kind of man he had become. But, more specifically, I’m sure one, two, or three touches are enough... specially when he’s your brother. Yara went a little too wild in this scene.
What are the Crannogmen up to? The House of Reed? Just chilling in the swamps? You don't hear much about them.
Hi! I am currently working on my Bachelor's thesis and it would help me so much if you could take a few minutes to fill in my thesis survey and help me graduate! My research is about the perception and stereotyping of fandoms :). Thank you! Here's the link: https://erasmusuniversity.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0vqBK1fvgXKetL0
George, feel free to send a message if you ever wanna talk shop
Ok I’m kinda new to game of thrones so I don’t really know everything about it. I started watching in the beginning of the year and I finished and is now reading the books. so I’ve seen some things on like other Reddit communities about another books coming out and etc, is George R.R Martin coming out with new books for a song of ice and fire?
I’m giving Tywin Lannister Machiavelli’s the Prince because I enjoy chaos.
This is a principle in the ASOIAF universe that should have played more of a role especially in GRRM's novels (aside: I'm only just about to begin A Dance of Dragons, so I beg your pardon if this was addressed already).
Post-Red Wedding, shouldn't have the entire realm of Westeros been in upheaval against the Lannisters, Boltons, and Freys? It seemed like in both HBO's version and in the novels, all that happened was this unholy alliance winning the war by scheming dishonorable and shameful plots. The plan that succeeded was the massacre of an entire army and slaughter of its royal family, which took place at a wedding to which they were invited to witness the joining of their families. And the only backlash was... acceptance? All of the Kingdoms of Westeros should have unanimously been at their throats for killing guests at a wedding, a familial and ancient tradition that was turned into a mockery and weaponized into nearly eliminating an entire House.
Dude just shows up out of nowhere, without so much as even a mention beforehand, kills Balon, and is basically like the new big bad guy/Ramsay Bolton type. Like "where the fuck did this guy come from??"
The title says everything but, I’ve been asking myself; who is worse? Joffrey or Ramsay? They are both the most hated character ( I guess ) and they both deserve the title. But who is the most horrible between those two tho?
I’m watching season 8 right now ( which is, for now, not good but that’s not the subject tho ). And what really bothers me is Bran’s character development. I love the tv show, but I do think they completely fucked up Bran. I haven’t read the book yet, but I can tell that it could have been SO much more interesting. In the tv show, we have no clue why he has vision, why Odor and the others died for him, no further explanation on the previous three eyed raven… And now, he’s just saying "I’m not Bran Stark anymore, I’m the three eyed raven" but we didn’t even have a proper explanation on WHY. When he left, he kept saying he wasn’t ready and POUF uncle Ben saves him, 2 episodes later he is the new three eyed raven. This makes no sense to me but I can’t wait to read the book to discover more about it tho.
