Five episodes, that is all we have left before we have to say farewell to the characters
we have come to know and love.
The last handful of eps are expected to be longer than usual, with the third expected
to be around an hour and a half.
With many speculating is when we will finally see the battle between the dead and living
take place.
So, how will the dead be stopped?
Who will sit on the Iron Throne?
Today on the Beyond the Screen we’re going to be bringing you some answers and all of
our predictions with the Top 10 Game of Thrones Season 8 Predictions.
Lets jump in.
10 Tyrion Will Be A Problem Let’s address the elephant in the room.
Tyrion is in love with Daenerys.
Plain and simple.
I mean, he didn’t stand outside her cabin while she was banging Jon for nothing now
did he.
So, this unrequited love my very quickly become an issue in season 8.
Will we see Tyrion go up against Jon in an act of jealousy?
Or is that below him?
I mean, at this point nothing is below Tyrion.
His mind is constantly going, and he may have already crafted a plan to take down Jon Snow,
so that he himself can stand by the side of the Dragon Queen.
9 Cersei Will Lose Her Child A prophecy told to us in a previous season
stated that Cersei would have three children, and that they would die before herself.
So, as the Queen is currently preggers, this makes things a little uncomfortable for her.
The Golden Company have arrived, and she was forced to have sex with Euron.
She’s lost her brother Jaime to the enemy, and a miscarriage could just be her be all
end all.
8 Theon Will Die Saving Yara So, many questions fans have is what exactly
will be the endgame for the Greyjoys?
They haven’t exactly had it easy thus far now have they?
Euron will die, hopefully anyway.
He is truly one evil bastard.
Now, as we saw in the first episode, Theon rescued Yara from his clutches -- but Euron
wasn’t there to defend his ship.
Surely once Euron discovers Yara’s disappearance a battle will ensue between Theon and Euron
which Theon will likely lose.
7 The Dragons Will Battle You know it!
For the first ever time on the show, which is a surprise, we’re posed to see a massive
battle between the dragons.
Viserion is now under the Night King’s control and, of course, there will be a reckoning.
Now, of course, Dany still has her two dragons, but you can’t help but wonder how they will
react when their brother starts burning them with blue flames.
6 Tyrion Will Be Revealed As A Targaryen It’s simple.
One potential fan theory that may actually occur is the “Tyrion is a Targaryen” hypothesis.
Hardcore fans know the theory commonly referred to as J+A=T. Which is the Joanna Lannister
+ Aerys Targaryen = Tyrion Lannister equation.
The theory goes that Tyrion is actually a product of rape at the hands of the Mad King.
Now, the show is subtle about this, but in the books Tyrion is described as, I quote,
“One green eye and one black, one peered out from under a lank fall of hair so blond
it seemed white.
Hair pale blond and black.”
As we know, the Lannister children all have golden blond hair without exception, but Tyrion’s
is different, and seems more similar to Targaryen hair, which is typically described as silver
or silver-pale.
On top of that, Tyrion’s strands of black hair, mismatched eyes, and his dwarfism could
actually point towards incestuous Targaryen blood.
The theory keeps going.
Tyrion also dreams of dragons.
Dragon dreams are specifically a Targaryen trait.
But, apparently Tyrion also has them, I quote, “I used to dream of having a dragon.
I used to start fires and stare at the flames for hours pretending they were dragon fire.”
5 Daenerys Will Die Right off the bat, the novels are called A
Song of Ice and Fire.
We have clearly seen those two elements personified through the union of Jon Snow and Daenerys.
They are the two heroes of Game of Thrones, and the end will be tied to their fates.
As with most of Game of Thrones, the ending may have already been hinted to through one
of the many prophecies.
I mean, Prince Who Was Promise was foreshadowed for a reason, with the Prince or Princess
set to be Jon or Dany.
With the hero set to temper his sword in the blood of his or her true love and bind their
soul to it.
And that is how the Night King will be defeated.
With one of the two having to die in order to bring a new dawn to Westeros.
4 Euron Will Die Horrible Honestly, I’m crossing my fingers for this
one.
As we know, Game of Thrones loves it’s villains, and the new big baddie that has emerged is
Euron Greyjoy.
He has only been around for a couple of seasons, and he has already proved himself to be as
bad as they come.
So, it’s likely, whether by the hand of Cersei or maybe even Theon, Euron will meet
a grisly end, and it will be horrible poetic.
3 Cleganebowl (cla-gane) Will Go Down Yes, finally, the event that we have all been
waiting for.
The Hound and The Mountain will reunite and battle to the death.
After years of speculating, it seems we’re finally getting what we asked for.
The Cleganes have, as we know, fought already, during the Tourney of the Hand in Season 1,
but Robert Baratheon stopped them before anyone was killed.
No fun, no fun at all.
However, this time around we’re sure no one will step in and do the same, and the
Hound will emerge victorious, although there is a theory that he may die from his wounds.
Saying that, it would be a fitting end for both brothers.
2 Past Characters Will Be Brought Back That’s right.
As the Army of the Dead marches towards towards Winterfell, we can’t help but feel like
we’re about to witness something that has never been seen before.
The crypt has played a huge part in both episode one and the promos leading into the season
-- which has left fans speculating if it will play a bigger role in the battle.
What will likely happen is the Night King will bring back the dead that are currently
buried in the crypt, which includes, Ned Stark, Rickon, Ramsay Bolton, and Catelyn Stark.
What greated battle is there, than between living and dead family.
1 Tyrion Will Sit On The Iron Throne Yup.
After Jon or Dany, or even both die while saving their people, Tyrion will head south
to deal with Cersei, if she’s still alive that is.
She will be defeated and King’s Landing and the Red Keep will be destroyed by dragonfire
and snow will fall just like in Dany’s vision.
And, many speculate that Tyrion will then be set to sit upon the Iron Throne.
Tyrion has already asked Dant about the line of succession and this may come into play
if the two heroes die as predicted.
He is arguably the most qualified, and over the course of the previous season, Tyrion
is set to have a major role in the final battle -- with many thinking that this role will
be to sit on the Iron Throne at the end of it all.
Well, there we have it!
Do you guys agree with our list?
Were there any season 8 predictions that we missed?
Leave us all your thoughts and feelings in the comments below.
Before we go though I just want to respond to a few comments from some of our previous
videos.
Jonathan Perrins said “I love the way most presenters on these sort of lists stay on
the fence with their opinions, but you just say what you think.
Very refreshing.”
-- I’ve tried censoring myself to remain impartial, I just can’t do it.
I’m glad you’re a fan.
Sandy Husacek said “Love her and love/support this channel but the monotone started bothering
me.”
-- Sorry.
This is just my voice.
Deal!
Mr. Nobody said “I think she was too harsh on Halle Berry, she’s gorgeous and I love
her as Sharon Stone in The Flintstones.”
-- It’s called an opinion for a reason.
Just because I don’t like her doesn’t mean you guys can’t.
