With so many filming spoilers out there, I thought we should have a designated thread to talk about them freely.

www.ew.com/article/2016/04/07/game-thrones-season-6-premiere-title?xid=entertainment-weekly_socialflow_twitter"The April 24 premiere title is: “The Red Woman.” The extremely brief episode description: “Jon Snow is dead. Daenerys meets a strong man. Cersei sees her daughter again.” There’s also a season 6 description that’s new: “Following the shocking developments at the conclusion of season five, including Jon Snow’s bloody fate at the hands of Castle Black mutineers, Daenerys’ near-demise at the fighting pits of Meereen, and Cersei’s public humiliation in the streets of King’s Landing, survivors from all parts of Westeros and Essos regroup to press forward, inexorably, towards their uncertain individual fates. Familiar faces will forge new alliances to bolster their strategic chances at survival, while new characters will emerge to challenge the balance of power in the east, west, north and south.” With a title like “The Red Woman” – referring to the sorceress Melisandre – fans of the show will certainly go into overdrive speculating what might happen in the premiere given that she’s at Castle Black along with Jon Snow’s corpse

Sigh....I am so excited for GOT premiere. It's the one show that rarely lets me down character wise, plot wise.....but I will be so glad when all this Jon Snow silliness is over. I think I am just feeling really burnt out with Glenn, Jon, Glenn again, deaths...

Some spoilers after the premiere part had new courage. "...The event marked the only screening of the top-secret premiere hour that will happen before Game of Thrones makes its April 24 debut on HBO (the episode is not being sent to critics in advance). HBO and the producers of Thrones asked guests to not reveal any plot points or post official reviews after the premiere event – general impressions only. Here are some admittedly (and maddeningly) vague thoughts on the debut hour, titled “The Red Woman,” that will keep you unsullied. ...Unlike some years, when Thrones started with a somewhat slower-paced episode that re-established all the various storylines, “The Red Woman” hits the ground at full sprint. This is partly due to the strength of last year’s finale, which included Dany’s capture by the Dothraki, Cersei’s Walk of Shame, Arya being blinded, Jon Snow’s death, and Sansa and Theon fleeing Winterfell. To some extent, all the climactic beats last year felt like cliffhangers, so this intense new hour picks up right where each left off.." Video clip linked at EW.

Fantastic! I'm excited by the new season plus thrilled my faith in Jon Snow not being gone completely was validated by filming spoilers. The premiere sounds wonderful ; I've read great reviews of the premiere.

www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/game-thrones-ending-884268'Game of Thrones' Stars Weigh In on Fantasy Drama's Looming End "...Even without an official ruling on the show's future, multiple cast members tell The Hollywood Reporter that they can see the light at the end of the tunnel — assuming there's any light at all, depending on how the story ends. John Bradley, who plays Night's Watch steward Samwell Tarly, describes season six as a year of "redemption," and one where "loose ends are tied up." "You get the sense that stories are coming to a conclusion," he said.... Look no further than Arya Stark, played by Maisie Williams, for one of the most prolific killers on the show. Season six continues Arya's path of darkness — quite literally, in fact, as she was blinded in the season five finale — and Williams says the path is leading toward a definitive, and potentially imminent, conclusion. "We're building up to a massive downhill sprint," she said. "That's what it feels like. We're getting more riled up. At the end of this [season], people will obviously be waiting for the next season of the series, but it will feel like the end is in sight..."

Showrunners tease most brutal season yet: link"...There’s perhaps even more at stake for HBO. It’s long been speculated that “Thrones” will conclude after season eight, and HBO has yet to produce another significant hit to take its place. The hope was that “Westworld” would inherit the genre mantle, but while Jonathan Nolan’s long-delayed, mega-budgeted production is now back on track, a premiere date has yet to be announced. Martin Scorsese’s rock-’n’-roll epic “Vinyl” has been renewed for a second season, but the ratings were disappointing (hovering around 1 million viewers in live-plus-3 estimates), and showrunner Terence Winter recently exited due to “creative differences.” Critically acclaimed series “The Leftovers,” from Damon Lindelof, is heading into its third and final season this fall. And there’s still no word on a potential third season of Nic Pizzolatto’s “True Detective,” after a lackluster second outing..."

1. King’s Landing:
Olenna asks Jaimie to free Margaery and Loras and provides him with the troops to do it. They find Margaery has converted to the Faith and she even becomes a septa. It’s not clear if she did this only to save herself or if she is truly a believer.
2. Arya:
recovers her sight, plays a role in the theater in Braavos and is supposed to kill a rich merchant there, but she doesn’t. The Waif comes after her, they fight and Arya kills The Waif. Arya then returns to Westeros.
3. Sam:
goes to Oldtown and visits his family. He claims little Sam as his son and leaves him in his family’s care.
4. The Greyjoys:
Yara rescues Theon and takes him to the Iron Islands. Balon Greyjoy calls for a big assembly, we meet Euron here. Balon dies and Euron becomes the leader of the Iron Islands. Yara dies but there’s no information as to how. The Greyjoys plot revolves around the horn that Euron has, but there are no details beyond that. Euron doesn’t go to Oldtown in search of the Maesters’ ancient book as the 4Chan summary claimed.
5. Bran Stark:
3 flashbacks. One is a scene for which there isn’t a lot of info, it could be about Bryndens Tully’s youth, it has already been filmed and there’s an albino actor in it. The second one is about Ned, Robert and Hodor’s childhood, Hodor’s real name is Walder and this scene reveals why he’s always saying Hodor, but the email does not confirm how this happens or if the 4Chan info is correct. The third one is the Tower of Joy. The episode title is “Promise me, Ned”. This last flashback they will reveal Jon’s parentage. To film this scene they almost emptied the set, except for 10 people who were absolutely necessary for filming
6. Daenerys:
Danny is captured as a slave and taken to Vaes Dothrak to live the rest of her life with the Dosh Khaleen. Drogon comes to the rescue setting the Dothraki temple on fire. The Dothraki are convinced that Dany is the one with the power and follow her
7. Mereen:
Tyrion is trying to hold the city. The Sons of the Harpy attack more and more ferociously. There’s a Red Priestess that becomes Tyrion’s right hand and tries to get the city under control with him. The Three Graces make their appearance, with the Green Grace in the lead, holding the most importance. The Green Grace will be revealed as the Leader of The Sons of the Harpy. There’s a massive attack from The Sons of The Harpy in episode 10 who slaughter a big chunk of the free slaves who supported Dany. Dany shows up at the eleventh hour with a Dothraki army who obliterate The Sons of the Harpy. There’s no scene featuring Danny leaving for Westeros.
8. The Riverlands:
Ian McShane is Septon Meribald. We’ll see The Hound again. The siege of Riverrun by the Freys will be featured. Jaime will go to the Riverlands, not to break the siege, but to ask for the Frey’s support against the Sparrows in King’s Landing. Brienne and Podrick will go to the Riverlands. Jaime and Brienne will meet again.
9. The Battle of Winterfell:
The Boltons will be supported by the Karstarks. The rest of the Northern families (Mormonts and Umbers are specifically mentioned) will fight with Jon and the Wildlings. The two people flayed on crosses are: Roose Bolton and Stannis Baratheon. Ramsay kills Roose because he’s afraid that he’d be replaced as heir by Wanda’s baby. Ramsay’s men find Stannis body in the woods, and Ramsay uses it to demoralize the Northern troops that oppose him. Jon, Sansa and Rickon will reunite in the battle. The Bolton troops massacre the Wildings, who are not disciplined enough to face them and are apparently the first to fall. Thormund dies. It is suspected that Wun Wun dies too, but that has not been confirmed because since he’s CGI, very few people know his fate. Ramsay and Jon face up, but Ramsey escapes. However, Ramsey is later killed by a direwolf; this is based on the actor having been seen wearing makeup that showed him with a huge bite on his neck. The Bolton troops appear to be winning, but, in the middle of the battle, Littlefinger shows up with the Vale’s army, in support of Jon Snow. In the middle of the confusion, there’s another death: Rickon Stark. He doesn’t die in a combat scene. His death happens outside the battle. And someone tries to take advantage of his death to push another heir to Winterfell.
10. The Wall:
The Wall will crack and fall. The White Walkers will cross it. Dolorous Edd will die. As the WW make it through The Wall, the bodies from the Battle of Winterfell will raise.
11. There’s a final battle waged at sea.
Very little is known about it because it’s got a lot of CGI and was filmed under a lot of secrecy. The participants are the Tyrells and Dorne, allied. No confirmation as to who they are fighting.

'Game of Thrones Renewed For 2017' on WinterIsComing winteriscoming.net/2016/04/21/game-of-thrones-renewed-for-2017/"...HBO has just announced that Game of Thrones has been renewed… “for 2017.” Interesting wording that, and also interesting timing. Traditionally, HBO waits until the premiere of the show in question to announce that it has been renewed for the following season. Over the course of the first few years of Game of Thrones, this was like clockwork–around 3pm EST the Monday after the season premiere, the press release would drop that next season was a go. The only time this was done differently was after the debut of Season 4–when both Season 5 and 6 were announced as greenlit. (This meant last year, there was no announcement the Monday after, since Season 6 was already confirmed. Not that we are complaining in the slightest–except that we assumed they would be announcing Seasons 7 and 8, and here they’re not actually using those words at all. Instead it’s just “renewed for 2017,” in conjunction with both VEEP and Silicon Valley, which also are returning on Sunday. To wit: With all three shows set to return for new seasons on Sunday, April 24, HBO has renewed GAME OF THRONES, SILICON VALLEY and VEEP for 2017, it was announced today by Michael Lombardo, president, HBO Programming. The Emmy®-winning GAME OF THRONES begins its ten-episode sixth season Sunday, April 24 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT). Based on the bestselling fantasy books by George R.R. Martin, the fantasy series chronicles an epic struggle for power in a vast and violent kingdom. Series regulars this season include: Emmy® and Golden Globe winner Peter Dinklage, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Emilia Clarke, Aidan Gillen, Diana Rigg, Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams and Jonathan Pryce.
