Game of Thrones—remember that show? It's the one where cold people hate the warm people. It's coming back later than usual this year, meaning we're waiting until summer for season seven. So for now, we have to pretend we want to see an orchestra play the Game of Thrones theme for two hours while we look at this poster.
Look at it:
LOOK AT IT:
What you see there is a sheet of ice with flames licking the bottom half of the image. The words "#GOTS7" and "HBO" appear in the middle. The "#" is a symbol used on twitter called a hashtag, and anyone born before 1995 called it a number sign. Here, it likely means hashtag, to use with "GOT7"—which likely stands for Game of Thrones Season Seven—on Twitter. HBO is an acronym for Home Box Office, which is the premium network upon which Game of Thrones airs.
The rest of the hidden meaning behind this poster is slightly more subtle. The book series from which Game of Thrones is adapted is called A Song of Ice and Fire. In the books, frozen White Walkers with a cold undead army are invading the warmer climate to the south from the wintery wastelands of the north. This is bad. Beloved characters such as Jon Snow (who was dead then not-dead) are trying to stop this from happening. Fire is the only thing that really stops these cold things from the North. Daenerys Targaryen is traveling toward Westeros where she'll eventually join Jon to fight the frozen army from the north. She has dragons. Dragons breathe fire. Fire fights ice. Ice and fire are on this poster.
You still have to wait like four months for the show, so see what else you can find in the meantime. The fire on the lower right side kind of looks like an eye. Jon Snow has eyes. So does Daenerys. Hmmmmm.
