In an exclusive fragment from the upcoming documentary book "Fire cannot kill the dragon" Showranner "Game of Thrones" David Benioff and Dan Wayss commented on the famous confusion, as a result of which the cup of coffee left on the table was commented in the final installation of one of the eighth season. According to the authors of the show, at first they counted that the incident with the glass was either a draw or the "psychological experiment", but not a reality. Benioff about this said:
I could not believe it. When the next day we received an email about what happened, I honestly thought that we were just swirling over us. The fact is that earlier we have ever heard something like: "See, the plane flies in the background!" After that, it turned out that someone just played with Photoshop. I thought: "It can not be there a glass of coffee". But then I saw everything with my own eyes on TV and exclaimed: "How could I not notice this?"
Wayss add to this:
I saw this frame a thousand times, but we always looked at either on the face of the actors, or on the combination of this frame with neighboring. It was a feeling as if we were participants in the psychological experiment, when you did not notice the gorilla running in the background while watching the basketball, because your attention is focused on the ball. In many films there are similar flashes. For example, a member of the film crew can be seen in the brave heart, and in Spartak, one of the actors wears wrist watch. But today, people are available for the rewind and possibility of instant communication. Someone alone saw a coffee glass, rewound back, and then the rest of the audience did the same.
Despite the fact that the creators of the show hastily corrected the admitted emboss, by the time the glass of coffee from the "Game of Thrones" had already managed to become the subject of numerous jokes and memes.
