• Game of Thrones version IV: Preface your spoilers with BOOK or SHOW
    5,969 replies, posted
To be fair, it's just chalked up to the different kinds of media. The book event fits well for a book because it's to the point and makes you go "well fuck thats that i guess", the show event is a lot more harsh because they have all sorts of different sensory faculties that they want to abuse. They can do a lot more with it so they did.
Just started watching this recently so i'm still catching up, but I just watched s3e9...omg I dont even know what to do
[QUOTE=Del91;44995252]Just started watching this recently so i'm still catching up, but I just watched s3e9...omg I dont even know what to do[/QUOTE] Don't worry, just remember it can always get worse. [sp]It always will too.[/sp]
I just got spoiled about the latest(?) episode. The part where [sp]Oberyn gets absolutely crushed by Clegane. I decided to watch the scene too. Kind of made me uneasy[/sp]

Don't watch if you're not up to date with the show. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8oOi6JOXEQ[/media]
What will happen to the show if it catches up to the books?, I mean it takes years between the books and only one year between the seasons?
[QUOTE=HSF;44997952]What will happen to the show if it catches up to the books?, I mean it takes years between the books and only one year between the seasons?[/QUOTE] I imagine they'll pad out the next 2 seasons pretty heavily to prevent that. 50 minutes per episode of soldiers sans genitals shyly looking at cute girls while they bathe.
[QUOTE=HSF;44997952]What will happen to the show if it catches up to the books?, I mean it takes years between the books and only one year between the seasons?[/QUOTE] There's still a Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons left before we're out of books, and since some chapters of Winds of Winter have already been released, I assume that book will be done by the time the series catches up.
I assume GRRM will have told the showrunners what ideas he has in mind for how it should end in case he dies before he can finish the books. It would make sense.

[sp]Even though I knew it was coming, I wasn't ready for how brutal it would be. I'm not usually that squeamish, but fucking hell.[/sp]

I mean, the man is old but he could still have 15-20 good years in front of him should he be in good health. My great-grandmother died at the age of 102 so who knows

[i]I will miss him Like many great characters he was taken from us A bold man A fearless man A man not afraid to speak his mind in the face of authority that would strike fear into the hearts of lesser men A man who never forgot where he came from, even when he was miles from home A leader of men A born fighter and warrior A man who even while drunk fought with elegance and skill A man who bested his opponent and had him on the ground Only to have fate snatch victory away from him at the last moment However he is not truly gone For heroes are mourned But legends never die And this man was A fookin legend RIP Karl Tanner[/i]
Brutal

My great-grandmother died at the age of 102 so who knows[/QUOTE] Think of like this, he's getting paid to talk about his death. Both the books and the tv show, not to mention whatever else GOT gets licensed to, are bringing him buckets of cash. It's a small price to pay to have to explain your future plans to the producers, in case you die sooner than you'd like. Plus, him living another 20 years is one thing, him being able to WRITE for however long it takes is the real concern.

[QUOTE=kenji;44996850]Don't watch if you're not up to date with the show. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8oOi6JOXEQ[/media][/QUOTE] I just realized. (show spoilers) [sp]Did the credits always mention Pedro Pascal as "guest starring" ? If so that kind of phoned in his death.[/sp]
[QUOTE=HSF;44998617]Oh right I was thinking the next season would be A dance with dragons[/QUOTE] Well, AFFC and ADWD have timelines that overrun each other, so the next few seasons will be grinding through both books at once. It'll be interesting to see whether viewers stick with it through all that. I found those books to be quite boring compared to the first 3.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;45003188]Book 4 kinda sucked because GRRM put all the interesting characters into Book 5.[/QUOTE] I think it's more the fact that it had to follow Book 3 where fucking everything happened
