Hi,
I think there might already be a topic concerning this, but I can't find it, so I'm making a new one.
This is for discussion of any aspect of Game of Thrones, from season 1 to season 8, from speculation, to comparisons, to analysis, from lore to terms, it's time for anything. Naturally, it is my belief that spoilers will be discussed, which is inevitable by the way, so please put a spoiler warning on parts of posts that require it. Also, feel free to help anyone who might be new to the series, get started. Here's how I did this, and also please excuse my spelling and please, someone come back with correct spellings for me if necessary, thank you.
I got the first 7 seasons and ended up watching episode 1, and was still a bit confused about who's who. It wasn't until a few episodes in that I was able to find a way in, so to speak, and that was by following Deneres's story. What was interesting was once I was able to follow this arc, all the other character arcs started to slot in around it, and I could find more characters to like and hate. I haven't properly refreshed myself, but I've started to watch the new season.
By the way I found one of season 3's arcs really dark, yikes. I think those who've seen it probably know which one I'm on about.

Theon. Yikes, those scenes are scary. I think from a behind the scenes standpoint though, the actors kind of had fun with it and made sure to make each other laugh after the scenes as they were all rather dark.
I actually have a question though to those who might know, but does anyone have an idea as to how the actors get to quote unquote ride dragons? I know the dragons are cgi but how would they allow an actor to ride on set?
