Way to Ruin a Promo
Year: 2019
Mistake: Character Jaime Lannister still seemed to have a right hand in the promotional ads for the season
Promotional images are essential for generating excitement and anticipation for upcoming seasons of popular TV shows. In the case of Game of Thrones, the promotional photos released in anticipation of a particular season contained a noticeable blooper that caught the attention of fans. The blooper involved the character Jaime Lannister, who had lost his hand earlier in the series as part of a major storyline.
In one of the promotional photos, Jaime Lannister was depicted with both of his hands intact, as if his hand had magically regrown. This inconsistency in the promotional image led many fans to question whether the editors had overlooked the continuity error. While it was just a promotional blooper and not an actual storyline mistake in the show, it did generate quite a bit of discussion and amusement among fans.
