Game of Thrones season 8 episode 1: Bran's gaze, Jon Snow riding the dragon makes for Twitter's best memes

The first episode of _Game of Thrones_ has finally arrived, and with that has arrived a barrage of hilarious memes that have taken over the internet. From Jaime Lannister’s petrified face on spotting his first victim (shown in the series) Bran Stark in Winterfell to the cold glances that Sansa and Daenerys share, Twitter is a meme-fest when it comes to GOT. One may remember that Jaime had pushed Bran out of the window of a high tower when the curious Stark had found out about Jaime and Cercei’s incestuous relationship in the pilot episode of the series. Bran’s heavy, almost scary staring-into-space glance has left audiences (and Jaime) terrified.

If I walk outside right now and Bran is staring at me I’m calling the cops #GameOfThrones

Some commented on the obvious tension between Sansa Stark and Daenerys Targaryen

“Whatever they want.” Clearly #Daenerys doesn’t need dragons throw down a burn. Also: Love Jon Snow literally caught between them #GameofThrones pic.twitter.com/IQa5pdEAZC

Some even equated Jon Snow’s learning to ride a dragon with Harry Potter’s flight on Hippogriff and Hiccup learning to ’train his dragon’ Toothless. How to Train Jon Snow’s Dragon pic.twitter.com/9Zo5FeQk0G
