Translated, the first two episodes of Season 8 are estimated to run at 60 minutes each while the final four episodes currently estimated to run for 80 minutes each.

While the runtimes themselves are likely not exact with the series in the final stages of post-production, the increased length does echo previous claims by HBO chief Richard Plepler, who claimed earlier this month that the final season would be like "watching six movies" to tie up the series.
