Five Reasons Why Game of Thrones Season Six Was the Most Wildfire So Far

So, the sixth season of Game of Thrones has been over for two weeks now and we’re all going through a degree of withdraw (except our boss, Will, because he’s happy to be free from writing about Thrones every week for at least another year). To help you cope with the absence of what is basically The Sopranos on Middle Earth, we’ve come up with a few reasons why Season 6 might just be the most lit season of the show yet. ***All Spoilers For Season Six*** [title type=”h4″]1) They Ran Out of Book Material[/title] Honestly, this is the most important one of all. First of all, as an avid comic book reader, I like when movie or television adaptations make strategic detours from the source material because it puts all the fans…die-hard and casual on an even playing field. That way, everyone’s shocked together when Tony Stark blows up all of his armor suits to start a new life with his one true love (and then declares that he is, in fact, STILL Iron Man ten minutes later at the end). That way, we’re all having relatively the same viewing experience without some know-it-all spoiling the movie in the dissertation/essay he left in the comments section of the Red Band trailer. The same applies with Game of Thrones. Now, to be fair, there seems to have been a consorted effort on the part of the book-readers to not outright spoil the story for people introduced to it via the show, but honestly, it still feels like going to the movies with your friend who’s seen it three times already.
