Every Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. CST, we here at WiC take to our Facebook page to talk through all things Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire. This week, we cover a plethora of news coming from the season 8 set, including new casting notices and HBOâs never-ending journey to building its own version of Kingâs Landing (that last bit starts around 5:14).
Then, around 13:25, we pose a question: In the wake of the news that Amazon is spending a ridiculous $500 million (to start) to make its own Lord of the Rings show, is that show poised to âreplaceâ Game of Thrones when HBOâs hit goes off the air? You know thereâs gonna be a battle for the fantasy TV throne, and Amazon is trying to position itself to come out the winner. Letâs get into it.
