My Crazy Game of Thrones Theory - Season 7 Teaser "The Long Walk"

I've had this crazy theory for a while, but after seeing this trailer yesterday and having the time to digest it I'm thinking more and more that it could be true. If you haven't seen the trailer yet here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/entertainmentweekly/videos/10154620448267734/ So, here it is. There are three Targaryens in Westeros. Dany of course, who has taken her families seat at Dragonstone until she can knock Cersei's butt off of that Iron Throne. Then there is Jon who has been confirmed as a "Stargaryen" (Stark and Targaryen, son of Prince Rhaegar and Lyanna Stark). Last, but not least that leaves Cersei. Wait, WTF?!? How can Cersei be a Lannister? This is how... In the books (and the show) Tywin Lannister was married to his cousin Joanna. This was the mother of Cersei, Jaime and Tyrion. Tywin Lannister and Aerys Targareyn (aka the Mad King) were best friends at one time and dirty old Aerys had a thing for Joanna. When Tywin and Joanna were

#musiciscoming - Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience

I recently attended the Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience in Atlanta, GA. I had attended the Lord of the Rings concert back in the mid 2000s and loved it and since I love music and all things Game of Thrones I was ready. And what an experience it was. The arena filled with smoke, swords clashed in the clouds changing from blue to red (ice and fire) and the Iron Throne appeared while that familiar song started to play. I was so in awe that I completely forgot to take a picture of the Iron Throne as it rose through the floor in the middle of the arena. Once I had the presence of mind to pull out my phone and take a picture, it vanished never to be seen again. :/ I did however, take pictures of other parts of the concert as well as some video, which I hope I don't get in trouble for, but I just couldn't help myself. I've also had The Rains of Castamere stuck in my head for days... A small price to pay for such a great experience. Ramin Djawadi, who

Game of Thrones Season 7 Teaser Trailer - Rivals Take Their Seats

HBO released a season 7 teaser trailer for Game of Thrones today and what a tease it is. It looks as though Dany, Jon and Cersei will all be vying for the throne. Cersei is in Kings Landing of course where it looks like winter has finally come. Jon is at his seat in Winterfell (a seat he never thought he would hold). And it Dany has taken her temporary seat at Dragonstone since it's abandonment after the demise of Stannis Baratheon. It's a fitting visit on Dany's journey to possibly sitting on the Iron Throne as Dragonstone was the original seat of the Targaryen heirs who were next in line for the Iron Throne, including her brother Rhaegar who we may see in flashbacks during season 7. If you haven't seen it yet the link is below. Only 3 1/2 more months to the season premiere on 07.16.17. I never thought I'd be so happy to see July! Also, some exciting news. I hope to launch a Game of Thrones podcast for season 7. I'm still working on the name so m
