#WinterIsHere Game of Thrones Season 7 Trailer

Spoiler alert: If you haven’t watched up to season 7 of Game of Thrones, please don’t watch the trailer. While it is just a trailer and doesn’t give much away for the upcoming season, it still gives away major plot twists from previous seasons inherently.

Wow. There’s so much to unpack out of this latest trailer as there’s more shots included here than there has been in previous trailers. I won’t get into a frame by frame breakdown of each shot included in the trailer as I think that speculating too much may ruin what eventually happens throughout the season if the assumptions and theories end up being right (see: Westworld’s most popular theories almost all being true). So we’ll keep it light and just get really excited about the hype instead.

What is most noticeable just from this trailer is that the scale seems much bigger. If you compare some of these shots to what you saw in season one, it’s an amazing change. The first few seasons were more character driven on smaller sets. This change is obviously due to the increase in budget as the show became more and more popular, and we can’t be happy enough at that fact. This season (along with the last few) just seems…huge. GoT is known for being tight lipped and not giving away it’s most incredible shots (unlike every movie trailer nowadays) so even these amazing clips are nothing compared to what we’ll see in season.

It’s been well documented that each season has “down” episodes, if you can even call them that, where the plot is built up and the stage is set. However, with a shortened number of episodes this season (only 7 but they’ll be longer than normal) and with every character making some big moves, I highly doubt that we’ll see those plot building episodes that we’ve seen in previous seasons. That means you will be on the edge of your seat every Sunday starting July 16th. Considering the fact that Masie Williams tweeted out this series of tweets back in August of 2016:

“just finished reading season 7…shit gets REAL…i’d start preparing yourselves now…scratch that, nothing will prepare you for this…holy BALLS”

it’s probably safe to say we’ll be calling GoT the greatest television show of all time before the final season even starts filming. So yeah…less than a month away!
