‘Game of Thrones’ is not a misogynistic show, female stars say ahead of final season

TwitterFacebook

Game of Thrones has been accused time and time again of being a fundamentally misogynistic show, careless in its depictions of violence, sexual assault and abuse of female characters. 

One scene in particular – when Sansa Stark was brutally raped by her sadistic husband Ramsey Bolton in Season 5 – had viewers everywhere saying that the show had finally gone too far. 

Rape scenes like that are not acceptable, not even in shows set in an – albeit fictional – medieval patriarchal society, critics said

But now, four of the show’s top female stars say that the show was actually always on the female characters’ sideIn a joint interview with Vogue, Maisie Williams, Sophie Turner, and Lena Heady addressed the criticisms (Gwendoline Christie aka Lady Brienne also took part in the interview, but did not address this topic).

Battle lines are drawn in intense ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 8 trailer

TwitterFacebook

The end is nigh, Game of Thrones fans, and the full Season 8 trailer we’ve been waiting desperately for makes that clear. 

In the final season, our heroes gear up for the battle between the living and the dead – and many will likely join the latter.

“Our enemy doesn’t tire, doesn’t stop, doesn’t feel,” says Jon Snow. He might mean the Night King, the Army of the Dead, the White Walkers, the Wights – or he might mean Cersei Lannister, who we see moments later, sipping wine upon the Iron Throne as if nothing has changed since Season 1. But as we all know, everything has changed. Read more…

The ‘Game of Thrones’ actors sure sound like they were in hell shooting Season 8’s big battle

TwitterFacebook

We can always count on Game of Thrones to push the boundaries of television, but a Season 8 battle sequence sounds like it may have pushed the show’s cast and crew to their limits and beyond.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Thrones team broke down their literal breakdown from the three-month shoot that will become the battle of Winterfell – the show’s most ambitious yet, known internally as “The Long Night.”

“Nothing can prepare you for how physically draining it is,” said Maisie Williams, who plays a highly-trained fighter but will make her battlefield debut this season. “It’s night after night, and again and again, and it just doesn’t stop. You can’t get sick, and you have to look out for yourself because there’s so much to do that nobody else can do…there are moments you’re just broken as a human and just want to cry.” Read more…
