Back in 2014, in the second episode of Game of Thrones Season Four, Joffrey Baratheon, the shithead boy king, finally died by poisoning after his brief and horrible time on the Iron Throne. That scene is one of a handful of big moments in Game of Thrones that is depicted in new promotional posters for Season Eight that are currently on display at New York City subway stops.

And Game of Thrones fans are not at all happy about it.

Reddit

One Reddit user posted a photo of the Game of Thrones display from Grand Central Station on Wednesday, which sparked outrage from fans worried about spoilers for scenes that happened four years ago.

"I’m appalled that they would ruin big scenes for new watchers. What a shame," said one user.

Another added that: "I kind of can’t believe they’re spoiling some of the main events from each season with these posters. Like I get that they’re mainly for show watchers that have seen it all already, but don’t you think they’d take into account the hundreds of thousands of people who will see these that haven’t seen the show yet? I guess it doesn’t really matter, it’s only a still and you’d learn nothing more unless you looked into it."

And according to one Redditor: "I have some good friends who are only in the first 2-4 seasons and loving it so far. This is really dumb by HBO. Could easily choose less spoilery pictures."

Need I remind you that the Joffrey scene happened more than four (4!) years ago.

Look, I understand that it's no fun to have something you care about ruined. But, things are going to get spoiled. That's just the world we live in. If you're the type of person who likes to go on the internet, communicate with others about pop culture, or live in a community where advertisers market said pop culture—then you need to be diligent about staying caught up with at least the past four years of TV and movies. Realistically, you have—at most—one week after the TV show or movie is released to be mad about spoilers. That's it.

So, please stop complaining about spoilers and RIP Hodor.
