5 things we learned from the Game of Thrones season 7 trailer
The long winter is over Game of Thrones fans! HBO has officially dropped the Game of Thrones season 7 trailer and we are freaking out at all the dragons, wintery weather and straight-up war the new season has in store for us.
While Game of Thrones trailers tend not to reveal too much information about the new seasons, we pulled 5 key moments from the Game of Thrones season 7 trailer that we can ponder and, more importantly, theorize about until July 16 when the first episode is on our doorsteps.
1. The Last Lannisters that count (are going crazy)
“Whatever stands in our way we will defeat it.”
Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) isn’t giving up her crown and throne without a fight. Even though there are enemies from the south, north, east and west (everywhere basically), she confidently tells her brother Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) that they will defeat their enemies.
We’re not sure if Cersei is fully confident in the Lannister army (because they are quite majestic looking in their red and gold armor) or if she’s gone full-out crazy.
We bet on crazy, very crazy. We have a feeling that Jaime, who is totally silent in the trailer, does too. There’s no way Cersei’s army is going to have the power to stop Jon’s army of wildlings and northerners from the North, the sand snakes from the South, Dany and her dragons from the East and Littlefinger’s Arryn army and every other angry Riverlander from the West.
It’s just not going to happen Cersei, especially if Tyrion learns how to ride a dragon (which we totally hope is going to happen), but we do like your optimism Cersei, it’s a better look for you then the start of last season’s dirty prisoner of the seven vibe.
