Originally posted by CASPER I dont read into it at all. If Im being completely honest, I loved the books way more, but at this point I read them so long ago that the Tv show is just a completely irrelevant offshoot to me. Until HBO/SHowtime/AMC shits out something else i feel like watching, Ill still pirate episodes every month or so. I REALLY wanted to see Victarion, but with the pace thie season is taking, im not sure thats gonna happen anytime soon.
I read the first and a bit of the second, it's basically not even a factor in the way I view the show. I plan to read them properly after the show finishes, hopefully Faggot finishes the series before he bites the dust. -

The hookers will, of course, have taken anything of value like they did with Farley, so if there is a final rough draft, itll probably end up in a pawnshop somewhere.

2017-08-15 at 4:50 PM UTCI read the first four books before A Dance With Dragons came out, and they were fucking amazing. Honestly, there's been a noticeable drop in quality of the TV series since they stopped having source material to base it on and decided to have the last two seasons a few episodes shorter. The pacing is all fucked up. It's just like key points now instead of intricate intertwining detail the show is known for. Everybody travels tremendous distances in just a few minutes now.
But it's still a good show, and unfortunately it's starting to seem less and less likely that the books will ever get an ending, which is sad. They are so good, and it's going to fuck up GRRM's legacy to have them unfinished, but he turns 69 this year, and it was 6 years between AFFC and ADWD coming out, so at that pace, which seems to be quicker than his current one even, he'd be at least 75 by the time A Dream of Spring comes out, and obese sedentary people don't often live that long.

Yee, they fucked it up. The writing was on the wall when the screen writers couldn't figure out the difference between Dorn and Sunspear. -

2017-08-15 at 5:33 PM UTCFirst of all, he's not really involved in the show much, or at all I think, anymore. It's based off his books, and the show is past them now. Second of all, why would you be so passionately against something you supposedly don't watch? You sound like one of those people who just automatically hates anything that becomes mainstream at all. It became mainstream because it deserved it for being so good.
I swear, people who don't watch GoT are like the new vegans. They just like to parade that fact around and go on and on about it. Who cares? If you don't watch the show, just don't watch it. Why expend so much energy on something you don't enjoy? Let other people enjoy things. Not watching it doesn't make you cool. -
2017-08-15 at 5:36 PM UTC^^^ Hipster. The word is hipster.
GoT is still a really good show, but it is just kept from being truly great by a few minor niggles. That doesn't mean it's trash, it just had a lot of potential that was left untapped. -
2017-08-15 at 5:41 PM UTCYou got all of that out of a broken plunger stick, a shaved anus and his last episode?

2017-08-15 at 6:16 PM UTCIt probably wouldn't be hard to make Dany not a dumb faggot, or give Jon Snow some development in order to make him win the battle rather than basically throw the match, and get pulled out by a big load of shit. They could cut some shit nobody cares about for it too, and the show would be all the stronger for it.

2017-08-15 at 6:20 PM UTCI always wondered why when they were doing the Rickon exchange, no one yelled "ZIG ZAG MOTHERFUCKER!!". In a world of archery, if you run in a pattern that they cant lead, you have a pretty solid shot at not dying. Then again, wouldve missed that dramatic moment that no one gave a fuck about.

2017-08-15 at 6:38 PM UTCI actually also noticed that at the time, but I chalked it up to Rickon just being a dumb idiot kid, and he wouldn't be able to hear Jon if he yelled it or something. No matter how good you are at archery, at that kind of range:
in the time between loosing your arrow and it getting where it's going, you can't change its flight path, and whomever you're trying to snipe... can. -
2017-08-15 at 7:07 PM UTCRickon might have some sort of relevance, minor though it may be, to the plot in the books, otherwise I don't see why he'd be hidden away by Osha for so long. I don't think they could make it work, or knew what his relevance would be in the show. It was weird for him to be gone for so long and then reappear just to be killed off.

2017-08-15 at 7:10 PM UTCmy problem with game of thrones is that I only like 1/3 of the characters. I wish it just followed that hot dragon girl. I havent watched the show in years though maybe i should pick it back up. last I watched the midget had just got to the desert
