Nah. Might be confusing me with someone else.

Easiest way to look up rumors seems to be on the freefolk or freefolknews reddits. Freefolk often gets buried in memes (several of which people here have posted...) so news is better for looking up old stuff - a lot of the leaks for this season came a year ago.

Usually the actual episodes leak a few hours before airtime, so you can get real spoilers at that point. Generally try to avoid that but not always successful. Last week, for instance, I saw several jpegs from the battle a few hours ahead of time.

I subscribed before the season started and its a confusing mess. Will try the news one. Thanks!

The Long Night continues to freefall. Now down to 8.6 on IMDB, which ranks among the worst in series history! And it's a major battle episode!

Sad.

Because when has a public forum ever been used by people to drive down scores for frivolous reasons?

I really don't know how anyone even knowing the plot holes couldn't have been entertained by the last episode. The showrunners even said, and it makes perfect sense, why some creative liberties were taken knowing it would lead to more compelling television. The dothraki scene and the Arya ending will probably go down as some of the most memorable in TV history.

I’m a book reader but I’ve always enjoyed the show. But that last episode was a show killer. I’ll watch the rest only because 3 episodes are left but if this wasn’t the final season I probably would have quit watching.

Hopefully all fake. Fingers crossed.

all those “rumors” were BS. I went and looked post episode and was a load of shit. They got almost everything wrong.

There actually were some accurate leaks for the battle last weekend. Posted I think 8-10 months ago. And, unfortunately, that individual is responsible for some covering the next 3 weeks that I really, really hope end up being fleaks (fake leaks). We'll see what happens tomorrow.

I’ve watched last weeks episode a couple more times. It is good, but lacks the misdirection and cleverness we’ve come to expect from the show. And ending the Night King storyline the way they did just wasn’t very satisfying in my opinion.

I’d be a lot more interested in the final three episodes if last week had been a head fake with just a small portion of the NK forces occupying the North while the army of the dead was still marching towards Kings Landing. Imagine the intrigue and possibilities if that was the case. Having to marshall what’s left of your forces for a final stand lined up alongside the soldiers you’re sworn to take down would have been epic and tense. Because if the NK managed to get to KL and turn another million souls it would have really been all over.

why do you want to spoil it for yourself? The episode is tonight.

After the writers have proven they couldn't write their own autobiography without ****ing it up, many think they are going to write some awesome twist to the story.

Alright. You saw the Army of the Dead. You know how hopelessly outmatched the living were. How would you complete the story if what you propose had come to pass?

Apparently "Arya sneaks through the army and pounces out of the air somehow" is a viable option.

Assuming we kept that original ending, what do we see in the show for the next three episodes?

A drawn out siege on Winterfell isn't going to be riveting television. Seeing the chaos in the attack on King's Landing would be interesting, but they're even less prepared for the Army of the Dead than the North. That would end quickly. With another million plus undead from King's Landing and however many more they'd pick up on the way, Arya Ex Machina would be even more ridiculous.

So some of the episode has leaked.

Sassy Squatch 05-05-2019 11:10 AM

This is from 9 months ago. At least 2 of these happen EXACTLY as the leaks describe it in tonight's episode, so there's probably a lot of truth to it.
