Sure, I was disappointed with the GOT ending, but I need something to justify my HBO Max Subscription other than watching Titans and Tacoma FD again.

The Night's Kind is said to have married a woman he glimpsed from atop the wall. They say she had "skin as white as the moon and eyes like blue stars" which seems to indicate he married an Other/WW.
Well that sounds like it would have been interesting to read about.
I agree. Personally I want a "Fire & Blood" type book about all of Old Nan's stories, the ones about the Watch and the Kings of Winter and the Long Night. I always assumed GRRM never fleshed out much about the Starks in the companion books (like World of Ice and Fire) because he was planning to bring it all out in the actual ASOIAF books, but that's obviously out the door now.

I just hope we get another Dunk and Egg story although I have no expectations of that either; he has been "working" on the last one for 10 years.

I mean, it's not Winds of Winter, so I bet we see it soon

Alas, he stopped working on Dunk and Egg stories to focus on finishing Winds of Winter. In 2013.
And now he has compromised and done neither.
Hey, those Wild Card and Jack Vance anthologies don't just edit themselves, you know.

Feeling: unappreciated

Doctor Who: House of the Dragon


... I think the same thing anytime I see Danielle Radcliffe in anything. To me it's just "Harry Potter and the Woman in Black" or "Harry Potter and the ****ed Horse", etc.

Not that this board is the end all be all of pop culture but it seems like a really bad sign that there were 2 months of no posts, and nobody posted the new trailer from 3 days ago at all.

I am excited after seeing the recent trailer. Wife is slightly less excited because the dragon cgi doesn't look as good as GoT.

Trailer has close to 10 million views on YouTube. That's still really good.

The Dance of Dragons lasted 3 years. If they are smart, they will limit this to 3 seasons and not drag it out further

Looks like HBO has upgraded all of the Game of Thrones seasons to Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos on HBO Max. Wonder if that means we can expect it for the new GoT series as well?

wasted his talent and any goodwill he had earned.

but yes, GRRM has partied quite a it the last 12 years.

I firmly believe he has no intentions of finishing the last two books
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

i think he thinks he is going to.

I think he is utterly incapable of doing so at this point.

I've always heard the rumor it's written into his will that when he dies, if the books aren't finished, the rights go to the grave with him. So we couldn't even see an eventual Robert Jordan situation.

No idea if the source of that rumor but I've heard it ever since Dance with Dragons came out

yeah. but it is irrelevant at this point. we know the major story beats, even if they were told poorly.

I've heard that story also. Assuming it's true, I don't see how it could be airtight. Someone will inherit the right to his books. Maybe his wife will inherit it and respect his wishes not to let anyone finish the story. But eventually someone will inherit those rights from her, and want to make bank by authorizing someone to finish the books.
