'Game Of Thrones' May Have Actually Spoiled Their Finale Way Back In Season One

Yes, so any and all people who may have allergies to spoilers, or simply haven't finished Game Of Thrones yet, please step out of the article immediately.

Thank you, and have a pleasant day.

And it was quite the finale. Presumably, if you made it past the spoiler segment, then there's a good chance you've seen it all.

Unless you accidentally scrolled down, in which case I'm glad I haven't spoiled anything yet.

Jon plunging a knife into his lover/aunt the same way he plunged... actually, I'm going to stop that sentence there.

The point is that you watched Jon kill Dany, you saw Drogon fly her body away.

Sansa stays in the North, Arya goes West, Grey Worm goes... South East, I think.

Others join councils, Jon rejoins the Night's Watch and everything is wrapped up in a nice, little, bow.

Oh, right, how could I forget about the new King?

Yes, it seems that Bran ends up coming out on top and winning the Iron Throne.

I've been pretty public about my predictions, and so has everyone for that matter.

And who was the person to call Bran on the Iron Throne? Go ahead, you can come out and gloat now.

That the ending where Bran is put on the Iron Throne may have been revealed... all the way back in Season 1.

Oh my god, Maestro, play the intense music.

How about we take a look at the promotional poster for Season 1. Looks pretty ordinary, right?

Just good old Ned Stark chilling out, relaxing and maxing all cool on the Iron Throne.

THIS! What's that beside him! A raven!

And I can hear your voices now through our secretly implanted surveillance chips in your devices reader: "so what? There's a bunch of Ravens in GoT, what's the big deal".

That's right, the Three-Eyed Raven a being that occasionally manifests as... well, a Three-Eyed Raven.

I mean, it is in the name after all. And so, what can we infer from this?

It doesn't help that the tagline is "You Win Or You Die".

What does Ned Stark do? Die. And what does Bran the Three-Eyed Raven do? That's right, he wins.

They say that we were all too lost in our own theories to notice the glaring bit of foreshadowing on the poster... granted, but there's no way anyone else saw it.

We were all convinced Bran was secretly evil.

There are some fans out there who think the creators "aren't that smart".

Clearly, we still have some folks who are upset about how Season 8 turned out (there are a lot of them).

Did you watch the show to see who would eventually win the Iron Throne?

Or was it all about the journey and not the destination?

Do you think it was always their plan to make Bran the King?

Did they spoil that in the poster? Or was the Raven supposed to be an allegory for death or something?
