It seems as if we all have been waiting for Game of Thrones Season 8 forever now. While it may not seem like it, the expected premiere is getting closer. As any fan of the show knows by now the final season of what many would call the best television show of all time will only consist of six episodes, however at one point the producers contemplated releasing three, two-hour movies to end the show. One half of the show running team, D.B. Weiss spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the idea to release the final season in theaters.
“It’s what we’re working towards in a perfect world. We end up with an epic fantasy story but with the level of familiarity and investment in the characters that are normally impossible in a two-hour movie.”

What ultimately put the idea to bed was the HBO executives wanting to be loyal to the network’s subscribers. While I do enjoy sitting in the comfort of my own home to watch Game of Thrones, and most any other show, it would have been quite the spectacle to see the final season play out on the big screen. I don’t think the majority of fans would have had an issue with this idea, they would be too excited to see what happens to complain all that much.
