I guess they realized their mistake:
HBO quietly removed the coffee cup from Game of Thrones

Got it on the DVR where that cup will live forever.
That probably would have bothered me if I wasn’t spoiled. ;d
“Of course, if only Tolkien hadn’t finished the books. Then, Hollywood could have reimagined it!!”
Why? Never stopped Hollywood before. Look at all the sequels that they are doing where the only difference is the substitution of females for male roles.
“Plus, they have the issue of the North’s desire for independence to deal with.”
Big flashpoint (which the show will not have time to deal with). Suppose Jon convinced Danaerys to give the North independence? What about the Vale & Riverlands? They would surely try to get the same deal — and that’s a recipe for Civil War. Probably Dorne would try to break free as well.
