'Game of Thrones' vs. 'The Walking Dead': The Mountain ends the debate with just two words
In case there was any doubt about which TV series does brutal killing better “Game of Thrones” or “The Walking Dead,” Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson has ended that debate with a single picture. The picture is of his character and the new villainous character from Frank Darabont’s show.
The picture shows a scene from “The Walking Dead” of the new villain Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). For those who are unfamiliar with the zombie TV series, this new villain likes to carry a baseball bat covered in barbed wire, which he has named Lucille. The character uses this weapon to batter the heads of his victims.
“I crush skulls with a baseball bat,” Negan says in this picture Björnsson (Gregor Clegane) shared on Instagram. In reply to this statement, the actor has a picture of his character in a scene from a previously aired episode. In that scene his character crushes his opponent’s skull with his bare hands. So, the Mountain thinks “The Walking Dead” character’s approach is “cute.”

Meanwhile, the production of “Game of Thrones” Season 7 continues. Two leaked pictures from the set reveal the throne rooms two major characters will use next year.
[Spoiler alert]
The first picture posted on Watchers of the Wall is the redesigned throne room of King’s Landing. The window on top of the Iron Throne will no longer have the seven-pointed star, a symbol of the Faith of the Seven. After the events in the previous season involving the Faith Militants, Cersei (Lena Headey) will rather have the Lannister symbol of the lion.
The other picture is the throne room of Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) in “Game of Thrones” Season 7. The Mother of Dragons will get to sit on her ancestral seat at Dragonstone. The character and her army are expected to land on this island, which is very close to King’s Landing.
