@Aegon and Cogs, don't forget Cogs. (Bryan Cogman is the adaptation writer, he's the main reason the story is so messed).
@Skooba I have a strange feeling that GRRM has cut them off. It's strongly believed that he has lost faith in the show and isn't very happy with it. He's even alluded to his feelings of the show being nothing but Fanfic.
It would make sense that since S4, the show has done nothing by base on sample chapters and shock value theories.
@Mooz I thought GRRM told them the main points of the plot he had in mind? You know just in case he dies before writing the next books. But oh well back then he thought he would have WoW out before Show hits ADWD.
@Mooz Yeah lol I do have twitter but I am not really active there.
By the way did you guys read the WoW preview chapters?
I might be just sick in the head but after reading Aeron's chapter, I am under the impression that Euron used to sexually abuse Aeron when Aeron was a child. Which explains his hatred against Euron.
@Aegon I wonder if he is delaying WoW now just so he doesnt have to compete with the show... and the books will still have suspense due to the drastic changes the show made
@Aegon Wouldn't surprise me. Wasn't it implied that Robert physically abused Joffrey too. Cersei had infants executed. Ramsay Bolton is pure horror. Viserys was creep to the max. Walder Frey just keeps upgrading to the next model. Craster marries his daughters and has his sons turned into White Walkers....
@Skooba Maybe but that seems unlikely. If he could have written the book, he would have. He was just too busy at social events I don't see how would he find time to write the books
@Skooba Yeah it's kinda very heavily implied. I won't spoil the preview chapter for you
@Aegon yeah its just the show started off so good and now they are rushing it... to me when a show's pacing changes dramatically it is a sign of a problem. I think you are right that GRRM lost faith in the show or the writers.
Do you think Prince Doran gets whacked in the books? because he seems like a much stronger character there... i mean we know the show ruined the whole Dorne plot
@Skooba Unless Arianne's mission fails, I don't see Doran falling
His hold is not firm
But as long as he stays in Dorne and keeps his head down until Dany comes, he may yet survive it
What do you think?
Oh show basically made a pig's ear out of the whole plot. Bet D&D were regretting their decision to kill Doran when they had to made Ellaria say "Vengeance, Justice, Fire and Blood"
My whole line of thinking was that if Varys could smuggle one child out, why did he allow the girl and some other random child have theri head smashed in by the mountain.
The thing that did for me was "How did Varys know that fake child would be killed in a way that his corpse would not be able to be facially identified?"
He had no way of knowing that
Or smuggling anyone out
Else he would have left himself. He had no way of knowing if Robert would pardon him or not.
haha. yeah not being a programmer that means nothing to me
reading your answer.... this quote is heavy, Glowing like sunset, a red sword was raised in the hand of a blue-eyed king who cast no shadow. A cloth dragon swayed on poles amidst a cheering crowd.
