In case you think it was necessary to raise even more expectations for the final season of Game of Thrones, we have the HBO CEO had an opportunity to see the episodes and said they are so spectacular that they leave the feeling of having seen six movies in instead of simple individual chapters.
In an interview with Variety, Richard Plepler commented: "It's a show, the guys made six movies, the reaction I had while watching them was, 'I'm watching a movie.' They knew that the stick was high (showrunners David Benioff and DB Weiss.) They managed to overcome that stick, I've seen them a couple of times (the episodes of the last season) without effects and I'm admired, everyone can expect an extraordinary dose of narrative and a very magical production. "
This was to be expected considering that some episodes, like the penultimate and last of each season, usually have spectacular productions of the level of a big budget movie.
