-Tyrion beheads Sansa then gets swallowed whole by Drogon
-Danaerys chokes Cersei to death as they fall off the highest tower of the Red Keep
-Jaime becomes king then Arya puts needle through his throat making her the Kingslayerslayer then gets trampled to death by a mammoth
-Jon Snow slays Ramsay Bolton (who is the…

8-bit? More like 2-bit!

Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and the baby from Eraserhead

Only if they sing the entire season, Les Miz style

Because they're good actors and I like them? Also, a racial dynamic could be interesting.

Only if you want to get real sexy with it
