Members DRW50 Posted March 12, 2015 Members Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Richard Madden is perfect. Literally perfect. He has watched Doctor Who since he was a child!!! http://www.vulture.com/2015/03/richard-madden-on-game-of-thrones.html If I had not been a Jenna Louise Coleman fan for nearly a decade, I think I would hate her right now. (there's a Song of Ice And Fire spoiler in there that hasn't been on the show yet - be warned) Edited March 12, 2015 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted March 24, 2015 Members Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think I've decided not to watch the show. Even though I don't believe for one second the writers truly know anything important about how the books will end I'd rather not take the chance. Nor do they deserve my time. In short I'm done with the series until the next book or GRRM dies. It's depressing that HBO and these two arrogant assholes feel the need to ruin what was such a great experience or literature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 24, 2015 Members Share Posted March 24, 2015 Pretty sure Martin and co. made that choice together, but good luck and God bless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted March 24, 2015 Members Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think they would do better to do different stories in the same world. Otherwise casting is almost certain to fall apart going forward. It seems like British actors in particular like to try different things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 24, 2015 Members Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think it's more likely they'll start splitting them a la The Walking Dead. Which is a viable option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted March 24, 2015 Members Share Posted March 24, 2015 You mean like 5 episodes in the spring and 5 in the fall or do you mean a spin off like TWD is doing? I'm basically rolling with the punches on all of this. I'm a little sorry that the show will "spoil" the books, but whatever. It doesn't really matter to me at this point. I did think that Martin had a deal with HBO to do his Dunk and Egg novellas as a series (set in the same world), but I don't know if anything came of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 24, 2015 Members Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) I mean a split, and beyond that I don't know. They might add to the episode order to help with a split, who knows? It's their biggest show and they have been floating the split season as a possibility. And yeah, it doesn't bother me.

Members DRW50 Posted April 8, 2015 Members Share Posted April 8, 2015 Good fun. I don't watch a lot of late night shows but I like that most of them have stopped being so sneering all the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members heffer Posted April 8, 2015 Members Share Posted April 8, 2015 I'd love to se a sequel to this skit with "the Hound". Chicken dinner, of course. And no one at the table alive at the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted April 10, 2015 Members Share Posted April 10, 2015 I'm sure they're all fawning over the new season. Its just amazing how because its amassed such a large audience it inherently cannot be critqued fairly by anyone. I have yet to see a single reputable site actually admit that the show isn't Gods gift to Earth or that it has flaws. Instead the lead sentence on the Atlantic article is that it "fixes" the "failings" of the fourth and fifth book. What a load of bullsh#t. Just because the latter two books don't have a massacre or a sex orgy doesn't mean that they are any less great or engaging. If anything I love the latter 3 more than the first two. Esp 5 which really has a lot of build up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ThePrinceOfSunspear Posted April 10, 2015 Members Share Posted April 10, 2015 LoL I'll admit they could have done something more with Tyrion but given his state of mind in the books I found his journey completely believable and understand why Martin did what he did in Book 5 for him... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
