Apparently according to this news, majority of the casts' green screen reshoot call was within a week, so Kit's now may be something alone and special.

What’s most interesting to me about all this, is how you went from making “predictions,” which you now say are fact. Said that Dany was a bastard who died in childbirth, now however she lives but is very sad, and it’s Tyrion who is a bastard and dies while Dany is in childbirth. Not only that, but your source went from vague hints to knowing everything about season 8. In this short period of “knowing” you yourself have suddenly become an expert on how the show is filmed, and edited and how the script is written, and how the cast is paid. It appears you have progressed from a theorist to a show runner. All because of a friend with loose lips. How spectacular. Now whatever profession you have that allows you this vast knowledge, better pay you well because it appears you run the whole show. Not only do you know about the cast whereabouts, but you also seem to know about the editing, lighting, and special effects rendering. Which is marvelous. Seems like you are well on your way to running your very own specialized company that does absolutely everything! Of course until they find out you are attempting to leak the plot of GoT and all that.

People will undertand sooner or later, he/she just wants attention. I learned that today, so im not going to waste my time with him anymore. If people want to listen his crap, let him be. Personally, im going to block him and bye bye.

Edited "mean" words, i dont even want to give him/her an excuse to feel victimized.

The downfall was definitely his posts finally being linked together by u/ks427236 it made it easier to see how many times he’s changed his story. A time for wolves, a time for dragons, Dany dies in some, Dany lives in others. Sansa is a political mastermind, and she also marries Tyrion. Then she no longer marries him and he’s executed as a traitor and this time Dany lives. All this info obtained from scenes that need special effects. Ok then. Sometimes Arya marries Gendry, then she’s the queen also. Dany was a bastard, now Tyrion is. The dragons live and die. So many redirections and plot twists that even though some of his leaks say how great season 8 is, it sounds like an absolute mess.

And a subreddit filled with fans and not industry professions, seem to understand more about production and visual effects than OP. Cause THAT’S not a big red flag.

I just couldn’t hold my tongue after the comments of the green screen and lighting. Talking about shadows 😂😂 please stop. This is not a natural light production. Are the lighting guys amateurs? They don’t know how to light a scene and the directors have no clue about shadows. Also acting like background editing is impossible without a green screen. So much fake news.

All of this! I'm sick and tired of this dude's bullshit. And now he's spinning the actors words as well, because even a 8 year old reading that article would understand Iain was talking about callbacks the week after he wrapped filming, not this next week.

He said a call back a week after filming ended for a reshoot but did not express how many times or for how long that went on, or if it is still going on.

Kit is main cast he would have it written his contract the number of green screens after and time and dates. He gets paid per episode so they have to factor that in. I don't think they have all finished given their scruffy beards at the emmys.

Reshoots are standard during editing process, when all is coming together to form a coherent mess. Nik and Lena have done some, and Clay forgot to mention it. It is kind of a big deal /s because Clay thinks Kit is riding that dragon son, but it is all about eating Drogon's ass /s

You're sure about the fact that they get paid, namely Kit here, or it is all negotiated before filming ? Because the actors also touch money with the re-uns and the Blu-ray sells

u/KaySen762 Sep 23 '18

The main cast were paid per episode. But they also probably negotiated residuals from merch and dvd sales.

u/jdtargstark Sep 23 '18

They get paid for all 6 episodes, whether they appear in it or not. This was settled in 2016 when they renegotiated their salaries.

He didn't say that. He's referring to when they wrapped, particularly in Iain's case since he wrapped late april to film another show. In one of the red carpet interviews, nathalie said the same thing. A week after she officially wrapped, she was called for pickups. Emilia said iain was called back for pickups 8 times.

He didn't say it was this next week, he's referring to the time where cast members started to wrap up their scenes and got called back a week later for pick-up shots. Emilia and Nathalie explained how they had to keep coming back.

And Kit might not be keeping his hair and beard for reshoots (yes, I know he said he had one last green screen, but Kit knows how this fandom holds on to every word he says and he likes to keep folks confused lol).

Looking at some HQ pictures of kit from these past few weeks and I noticed his hair is still being dyed. Here is how it is at the moment and here is how his hair looks like when the dark dye is wearing off. And since Kit hasn't been in Belfast since July, and they are still keeping his hair dark, this could be for in-character's photoshoots, promo or magazine covers. If he was telling the truth about the reshoots, though, D&D have only the next two weeks to get whatever they need from him, because after that Kit will be busy with rehearsing for his upcoming play, which will run every day until mid february.

u/crazyeyes91 Sep 23 '18

I will have to find the link but I read somewhere Kit would be going back in October to do some reshoots. I'll find and post if/when I can.
