Check out our favorite fan theories, the full season's episode run times, and what author George R.R. Game of Thrones Season 8 premieres April 14 on HBO. "I just thought that was a wonderful little sequence, and the fact that it was so collaborative,even in that first ," he continued, "I always liked that." "And it's Game of Thrones, so the art department, you know, they rustled one of them up-they probably had a couple already on file," Lloyd recalled. Momoa apparently got involved personally, asking the art department to whip up a convincing tongue that looked like it had been ripped out root and stem. According to Lloyd, the scene was written as a more straightforward sword fight, but Momoa had other ideas. He remembered discussing the scene with Jason Momoa, who played Khal Drogo (and, of course, went on to portray Aquaman in Justice League and his own standalone movie). "You know what one of my favorite deaths has always been, was just a couple of episodes after mine, in Episode 8 of Season 1, when Khal Drogo rips that guy's tongue out," Lloyd said. Surprisingly, he went all the way back to another Season 1 death. It is a season of television, it is a piece of art, and it is open to interpretation. We asked Lloyd whether there's been another since then that topped it. I’d like to start this article by contradicting myself: Game of Thrones season 8 is not broken. To this day, Viserys's gruesome death at Khal Drogo's hands in Season 1-with a pot of molten gold poured over his dome-stands as one of the show's best. With this line of questioning begun, we couldn't stop at one. The premiere of Game of Thrones Season 8 is here, and although we are so excited, we also can’t help but a feel a little sad that this epic show is coming to an end. He did offer one more alternative, though: "I'll tell you what, I always wanted Hodor to be in charge," he continued, laughing-clearly aware of the character's fate in Season 6. "I just want it to become a really nice, kind of democracy." "I kind of want no one on it, to be honest," the actor said, grinning. But his nomination for Ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, King or Queen of Westeros, and Warmer of the Iron Throne is nevertheless perfectly valid: nobody. Lloyd couched his opinion in the fact that he's "not quite up to date, shamefully," though he plans to catch up before Season 8 arrives. Now Playing: Game of Thrones Season 8 Trailer Breakdown!
