Game of Thrones is no Westworld, but we Westerosi can fall down conspiracy holes all the same. So it was with Ned Stark’s curiously inaudible last words from Season 1, which Sean Bean himself has finally put to rest.

If you thought Cersei had it too easy in Game of Thrones Season 7, the final episodes may deliver the comeuppance you seek. New filming reports suggest an actor’s return that may have dire consequences for Cersei, as well as a very chilly relocation.

With the current Star Wars trilogy nearing an end, Lucasfilm is looking ahead to the future of the iconic franchise. Not content to have merely one new series of Star Wars films on the horizon (courtesy of Rian Johnson), the studio is hedging its bets with a second series; in a pop culture marriage to rival that of Disney and Fox, Lucasfilm has enlisted the creators of Game of Thrones to work their mega-budget magic on the galaxies far, far away. But what exactly will this new series be about? We have some ideas.

David Benioff and D.B. Weiss will take charge of their own series of ‘Star Wars’ movies.

Game of Thrones will take more precaution than ever with the secrecy of its final episodes; apparently even from actors. If you believe star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, the Game of Thrones cast won’t even receive Season 8 scripts before filming the actual scenes.

We’re never surprised to see Game of Thrones topping the annual list of most-pirated series, but Season 7 might be a dragon of a different color. A new report suggests leaked episodes only helped the show’s piracy tally, ranking in with over a billion downloads.

One thing all ‘Game of Thrones’ fans — book readers, show watchers, bloggers, everyone — can agree on is that Gregor “The Mountain” Clegane and his brother Sandor “The Hound” must eventually meet again and fight in what is known as “Cleganebowl.”

Sunday night’s Game of Thrones had hours of essential information, major narrative developments and character reunions all packed into one swift episode. We could spend forever analyzing – spoiler alert – Cersei’s pregnancy reveal, how long Gendry will stick around, and what Gilly’s major Rhaegar Targaryen bomb drop reveals about Jon’s threat to Daenerys’ right to the throne. But one of the more unexpected and interesting developments in “Eastwatch“ was the raven Arya discovered in Littlefinger’s room. What did it say? Is Littlefinger tricking Arya? And what does that mean for the two Stark sisters?

Game of Thrones’ leak of Season 7’s “The Spoils of War” turned out an international error rather than consequence of the network’s recent hack, but the group responsible has designs of their own. Another round of leaks reportedly reveals detailed descriptions of Thrones’ “Eastwatch,” as well as multiple documents from a top executive’s email.

If there was giant wall of ice surrounding HBO to protect the network’s most precious properties, well, that sucker has come crashing down. The company has become the target of a recent cyber attack after The Night King a group of hackers reportedly infiltrated the network’s systems. And some secretive Game of Thrones data has allegedly leaked online.

Sunday night’s Game of Thrones began placing all the pieces in place for the total political chaos and carnage that’s to come. In “Stormborn” – spoiler alert – Daenerys said Jon Snow’s name for the first time, which was all sorts of exciting, two Sand Snakes met a nasty end, Arya had multiple reunions, Missandei discovered the wonders of oral sex, and Sam began to cure Jorah.

You’d think the Game of Thrones Season 7 premiere would preclude any more major trailers, but why stop there? Dany makes a new friend at Dragonstone, and Jon proposes a long-awaited alliance in this spoilery new trailer for the next six episodes.
