Same here, the potential large gap between eps if I watch the leaked version means I'll just hang on.

The Flying Belgian
Third Tall
Goes on youtube. Sees video that he thinks is discussing a fan theory. Click on video. Realise it is content from leaked episode. Too late now.
I've found this season more enjoyable than last because I've limited myself to not researching fan theories - you really get very little from knowing in advance. In fact you're probably more likely to focus on the minutia because the rest isn't really a surprise. The only things I knew were happening for sure were Jon & Dany netting and the return of Gendry. Now both have happened I'm in a blissful state of ignorance. The blackout is tough if you're naturally curious like me, but worth it.

The ones I have watched I have come across by chance and not by seeking them out. The ones I will usually watch are the theories that discuss, for instance, who will sit on the iron throne by the end. I don't really watch the videos that discuss smaller scale theories eg Gendry returning to do X.

21 years is a long time to focus on minutiae but it does make it easy to dismiss he garbage; Wall is coming down, Littlefinger's throat is getting cut and Jamie will be the Valoqar.
I'd estimate more but it'd probably go beyond this season.
On a side note it's really disappointing we won't ever get Winds of Winter or Dream of Spring. I'd love to see the Mexican standoff of one legitimate Targ in Aegon, who I'd often assumed would end up a Blackfyre, vs another legitimate in Jon (who I'd assume would be aided by Dany) vs Cersei. Considering how many other factions are still at play it's tantalising to even guess. I suppose it doesn't matter. It won't be finished which is a shame but imo the series hasn't been the same without a firm blueprint. There's still a much more compelling story to be told if only it didn't require a million dollars each episode to the principles.
I watched it.
Couldn't resist either.
I reckon Bronn could be sitting on the iron throne. It's almost a running joke within the show that every time he helps out Jamie he gets a bigger and better castle and estate. GRRM did say it will be a surprise who sits on the Iron throne IIRC.

Would be a weak ruler IMO not sure if he is mentally strong enough. Would definitely be a surprise though but his character has grown a bit this season. Starting to lead his own life for once.

I'm not really Team Samwell, was just trying to pick a surprising option.

It'll be Tyrion.. He's probably a Targareayan after all

Actually probably spot on. They might melt it down to build weapons

Weakened and watched yesterday, although the copy I had access to had terrible AV sync, just terrible AV in general. So I'm going to have to watch again.
Unfortunately ,as soon as zombie bear was revealed I knew what was going to happen before it did. Didn't make it any less terrifying.

Started to rewatch the marvellous seasons 1-4... damn so many hidden moments that at the time didn't mean much at all. After watching the later series and having some theories confirmed it just puts a whole new perspective to the early episodes. GRRM is a great writer when it comes to the intertwining of stories and character development over a vast time difference if that makes sense. Hodor and his name is a case in point.
