Game Of Thrones Season 8 Trailer Review: 7 Ups And 5 Downs

Downs

5. Have You Not Paid The Electric Bills?

Look, everyone knows this finale is going to be dark, because it will literally be killing off lots of our favourite characters and we ought to all be prepared to be broken by it. But did this teaser all have to be so dark in actual lighting terms?

Given how many people probably watched it on their phones - and how many of those people don't have their screen lighting turned up to 100% (the popularity of night modes on apps confirms this) - having something this heavily darkened is a little problematic. There are some scenes that require second and third looks to determine who you're even looking at.

Perhaps that's the point, actually. Genius when you think about it. As long as it is.
