I think D&D are clinging to the written material as much as they can and go straight to the ending. They will have Bri and Jaime with LSH in s6/s7 and then shoot to the ending. People say we are in uncharted territory but Jaime, Brienne, Arya and LSH are still from published books. No way they would spread WW invasion over 2 seasons. It will be dealt with quickly. We don't need 13 eps of people dealing with that it ain't Gimple's show

We don't need 13 eps of people dealing with that it ain't Gimple's show That would kinda ruin the whole point of including them. Season 7 will be the North dealing with the WW, while Dany wars in the south. S8 will be the endgame. I'm holding to my theory that Jon becomes new NK in the end.

You managed to steal the faces of your sons for centuries, but now one bastard killed you? Bad job.

Lena Headey did an interview. She said that Cersei is slowly going mad, and that the things she does in season six are basically inexcusable. Me like.

Do we have any idea who the "Captain of the tower" is? The one that has to make a difficult decision.

We don't need 13 eps of people dealing with that it ain't Gimple's show I've been wondering about this too ... how long will the march of the undead go on? I'm with you that a prolonged zombie war isn't really in tune with how the story has gone thus far so I don't see them doing that. It's definitely not "TWD Westeros style" so it shouldn't be the main focus really, but rather, the threat that's bigger than everything else but it's everything else we watch happen. If that makes any sense. How everyone reacts and joins forces to deal with the threat is what we all want to see. We want to see the remaining 'old guard' out the door while all the new generation gets their shit together, bands together and works towards the common goal of defeating the White Walkers and surviving the long night. I don't really want to watch a lot of episodes of CGI wights attacking villages and castles.

Even if that single season were front to back the war against the winter? I mean, 10 episodes is a long time to show wights attacking further and further south. I guess they could do it half one season and half the next. Maybe that's why they're considering breaking up the final season.

I don't really think so. Once the invasion starts, everything will become a desperate race against time to stop the White Walkers. Stretching the wigths and walkers attacks across multiple season would make the plot lose all the momentum, and will turn the show essentially into "Walking Dead on Ice".

I don't think they'll just steamroll all the way to Dorne in a single season. The first Long Night definitely didn't last just a single year. The WW move slowly, they are in no hurry. And it wouldn't be "Walking Dead on Ice" because TWD is mostly survival, whereas in GoT we would see armies and alliances being formed to combat the WW threat. It's very different.

I don't really want to watch a lot of episodes of CGI wights attacking villages and castles. You know George aimed the plot at the Ice Sauron north of the wall from novel 1, and The Others become a 'shadow' story , always there but really unexplored or at least not elaborated on. GRRM has several times ,some on the page, some in interviews mentioned a 'Battle of the Pelennor Fields' , in the context of Big Dragons and stuff. Then we spend , 5 novels, in a 'gaming melodrama' with about 1000 characters (well George wanted to do that). Then it comes down to 'well dear reader, now down to the core story'. My take is that the Others are going invade Westros, but Jon? Tyrion? the reaming Starks ? I don't know... South and North rally all against the invasion. Westeros will be on the ropes when Dany arrives with not only the Dragons but help from Essos with great difficulty and great loss throw back the Others. I can see this as the plot climax that D&D want to get to, and are not up to GRRM's gardening, the cut-to-chase could be just 7 in S7 and then how many does it take to wrap up, say 5 or 6 for season 8? One thing I wonder about , HBO seems to be Daddy Warbucks right now, S7 could involve a lot of CGI and a lot of action , tho it does seem to have limit on the TV screen , maybe why we see the IMAX experiments? I would say D&D don't cotton to George's side-to-side story and want to drive towards the payoff.

Anyway, it seems that D&D want to streamline everything, so I think we'll see a blitzkrieg invasion from the White Walkers. With probably 13 episodes to go, I can't see it happening in any other way.
