One or two years ago fans (re-)discovered old, internal summaries of the last two books. And they line up pretty well with a lot of points from the later seasons. So apparently DnD really got a list of plotpoints from Grrm and worked off those. That's maybe why he still likes them, while he hates HotD's Condal who really did his own fanfic.

IIRC, George recently said he did actually mean to kill off Sansa but is reconsidering it because of the TV show. It does demonstrate how much nagging normies have derailed the series even the books. I feel like if more of them were spoiled on the Red Wedding they’d have re-wrote so Robb and Cat survive.

>>218144088
the reach is similar to the Riverlands in that it's rarely united because the Lord Paramounts were installed by Targs and hold minimal respect from their vassals. Actually a rare smart move by the Targs

Lannisters have 40-50K soldiers who follow them 100%, the Reach has 3 different factions with 20-30K soldiers

to be fair to GRRM they could have given him 2-3 more seasons of breathing room if they'd actually adapted the book storylines properly. In hindsight it wouldn't matter, but there was a lot of kino in the books they just skipped because they were already rushing towards the end way before the final season

>>218144222
>So the failure of the series is at least partially his fault.

It's entirely on him, D&D were adapting it thinking he was going to finish both books before the series ended. They were there to adapt a story not make OC out of his summaries.

Their only problem, and they didn't know this, but some fans did, GRRM gave up on the series in 2000 when he lost the Hugo award to Harry Potter.

Riverlands was historically passed around like a whore because it can't be defended conventionally, they weren't annexing shit. The Reach was busy defending itself against the Stormlands, Ironborn, and Dorne. And invading the Westerlands is almost impossible unless you've got a Direwolf to find you a game trail through the hills

>>218144222
I can’t recall much of season 5 that pushed any of the story any further forward. Stannis died, but most of his scenes were marching south to face Ramsay, and then season 6 just has Jon do the same. Arya spends a year training and does nothing. Jaime has his Dorne side quest. I don’t remember a single Brienne scene. Bran isn’t even in the season (D&D justified this as skipping his training and then you’d see him in S6 fully trained; S6 comes around and he’s still a novice).
I’m convinced George told them Winds was almost finished so they fucked around for a year to buy him some more time to get it published.

>>218144169
>That's maybe why he still likes them, while he hates HotD's Condal who really did his own fanfic.
that's not the only reason George refuses to slander D&D. it's mostly because initially he promised to them and to HBO that he'd catch up and they would never have to invent the story themselves, they'd only have to adapt his books and he'd help them through

he broke that promise so he feels like it's on him that D&D had to come up with random cloakshit nonsense

with HOTD it's different, the whole book was there, his advice and support was there constantly, and yet the HOTD showrunners decided to break off and do their own thing after pushing him out, even though it was George's own support that got them their jobs. that's why he's really mad

It's funny, the Sansa of the earlier seasons, the one that D&D tell us needed to be raped to get away from her victim status was still smarter than the catty bitch they've made her into in season 8. It seems like the showrunners thought "if i'm the queen i'll make them love me" was some bullshit and Cersei was in the right here. But then again they've made Arya admire Lannisters so idk.

leaving out Stoneheart trashes at least 3 major character arcs, D&D showed they were brainlets who didn't understand the series they were adapting very early. Similar deal with whitewashing Cat's treatment of Jon in the first place and changing Robb's waifu. bookfags called them hacks early but people loved the sloppa

Yeah sure lmao.

reminder that Lord Stark (pbuh), the confirmed most honorable and reasonable man in the universe, singularly told Stannis Baratheon of the truth of Robert's children and therefore implicitly recognised that he was the true heir to the throne.

>>218144315
As someone who worked in a huge company at a big position a few years back, you have no idea how strong the pressure to 'normify' your products is. The people in the company who correctly point out the dangers of doing that are usually the people who are far less convincing and socially dominant than the sharks who promise shareholders better return of investment by normifying the product stack. Even if D&D said they'd keep it fantasy, I guarantee you that HBO higherups would strongarm them into pandering to football players and housewives. Because viewership matters more than quality, to them.

it's less about Stoneheart herself and more about how she ties into the character arcs of Arya, Jaime, and Brienne. Maybe even Jon, with the parallel of them both being zombies trying to avenge the Starks. Catelyn was planned to become a zombie from the original outline, it's one of the few things GRRM thought was important enough to plan that far ahead and there's a reason it's one of the few changes he publicly bitched about in regards to GOT

AFFC and ADWD are not good books and barely adaptable on a basic level because very little happens in either of them. It doesn't excuse them turning it into bad pussy and the like but let's not act like the source material is good once you're at that point.

>>218144216
Sorry, I forgot that not everyone here follows the fan news and happenings. I'll give you a summary:

It was an old back-cover blurb for TWoW that "leaked" 13 years ago from amazon, before we got the later seasons of the show. Grrm denied it at the time, and no one took it serious. But not too long ago the blurb was "rediscovered" in the fan community. You can read it here for example:

https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/sscux/i_messaged_grrm_about_the_twow_blurb_that_amazon/

https://www.reddit.com/r/pureasoiaf/comments/11nwr62/do_you_think_any_of_this_blurb_is_still_valid/

Notice how this lines up with what later happened in the show: Dany in Westeros, a big political alliance of Stark and Lannister, a daring mission beyond the wall, a final battle at Winterfell. There was a big discussion ~2years ago about how that blurb might have been based on some kind of outline by Grrm (for a book that still worked on a 5 year time skip) and how those plot points were also what he gave to DnD.

It could also just be a coincidence. The blurb is rather generic and it's unclear how and why Grrm would forward a TWoW summary to his publisher (?), who would then foward it to amazon (?), who then have an intern write a poetic blurb for it.

those books were critical for setting up the final conflicts so they made sense. Instead they skipped the majority and somehow made Euron into the worst possible combination of Victarion and Euron from the books. The main issue is that adapting the books faithfully requires showing that Cersei is retarded and they loved her actor so they refused to do it

Most of Stark children are like this. Doesn't mean they don't have a role to play in the endgame.

>>218144484
I think Balon intended to sort of colonise/enslave the North, claiming their small folk would be made into “thralls and salt wives all”. In the books it’s strongly implied many of Yara/Asha’s supporters at the kingsmoot realise this is retarded and support a limited plan of just being ceded minor northern coastal territories (farmlands and timber) in return for a peace treaty. She gets a third of the captains support before Euron interrupts with his magic dragon-binding horn (and not his big cock).

i don't mind the shit spray honestly, it's a scene completely seperated from anything else so it doesn't do damage. the fart was way worse because it killed the tension in a serious moment

how the fuck does that fat fuck live with himself? Just admit you're never finishing it. The fact he's letting actors give out spoilers and approving shit like the Harrenhal play that will also have spoilers all but confirms that he won't finish, just admit it publicly

>Says he will exploit his authority over the three kingsguard to cheese the fight
>"Is that honorable, milord?"
>"The gods will decide."
>the gods killed 3 on their side, including Baelor
I'm sick and tired of people trying to say "he was one of the good ones". The gods have spoken. ALL targshits are dishonorable sister fuckers

>>218144840
>There's enough Shaggydog stories in series, GRRM wouldn't make Sansa one.
Jon, Bran, and Arya were described as part of GRRM's core 5 with Dany and Tyrion. The ones who were critical and whose endgame he had planned basically from the start. Robb was never a POV because he was intended to die. Sansa was never considered critical to the story, she's the original Areo Hotah to let us see what is happening in King's Landing and with Littlefinger. She hasn't taken a single action that actually impacted the story, she's a passive observer

>>218144834
>The main issue is that adapting the books faithfully requires showing that Cersei is retarded
And North being loyal, can't have that. And and Jon doing morally dubious things and Tyrion being a misanthropic wretch and Daenerys trying to govern instead of burning and threatening everyone and Stannis not dying from being a dumbass and Brienne doing heroic things and Young Griff existing and challenging Kelly C's claim etc.

>>218144909
>The Alice with three fingers dialogue

I always thought Stoneheart, more dorne and more greyjoys all would have been terrible if they were added to the show.
The books clearly start going off the rails in Feast they were actually smart not to get burdened with all George’s loose ends.
They didn’t do a good job tying up the main storylines but at least a TV writer who gave a shit might have been able to do it which can’t be said for what a straight adaption of everything through Dance.

>>218143960
He didn't use the breastplate stretcher.

>>218144952
She got the Hound to change, that's something. Bran is being dragged around like a deadweight and Arya doesn't have much agency either.
>she's the original Areo Hotah to let us see what is happening in King's Landing and with Littlefinger
She's way better written and thematically important than that.

>>218144828
So far I've seen man ass shitting and a gigantic dick pissing. I haven't so much as seen cleavage.

It's true. They outlawed female nudity and gave us male nudity that is a 100% more vulgar than the former ever was.

>>218144828
The shit spray works because it's meant to take the piss out of the theme song, but then it gets redeemed in episode 4 when Baelor shows up and the new version of the theme plays that's absolutely awesome (the song and the scene). It's dumb, but it's there. The fart was bad though.

>>218145037
Are you retarded? There's tits in the first episode.

Jorge RR Martinez didn't even bother to look up basic economics or logical history. He just glanced at the English medieval history then ripped it off.

Having not read the books, this made absolutely no difference whatsoever. It's all still completely evident through Dunk's actions.

>>218144073
me on the left

>>218145011
They show went off the rails anyway, why not adapt all the insane bonkers shit like Euron becoming an eldritch god emperor or Victarion's burning hand? Stuff like Dorne could've easily been adapted and taken to it's logical conclusion i.e Doran's plans going up in flame and it would've given us some kino moments along the way like his "fire and blood" monologue.

>>218144657
Wasn't that the king who just died? I guess they could imply some orange weirdo becomes king but I don't know the books.

>>218145118
yeah, you can't even claim it's a budget issue because of the big show-only battles like Euron killing the Sand Snakes at sea

>>218145037
Zoomers get extremely uncomfortable when you put male gaze leering type shots in your shows so now the only nudity allowed is comedic male nudity and grossout nudity

>>218144088
Lannisters are more powerful because Tywin is a vicious cunt who would tear your throat out if he senses disrespect. Reach has more soldiers anyway.

F!Aegon will legitimize and marry Mya Stone, uniting the Baratheon and Targaryean claim (after Tommen and Myrcella are dead). The only other candidate then is Stannis. All the realm will unite against the crazy Dragon woman.

>>218145011
Dorne you could mostly leave out, but you need Euron as a magical chaos agent, Faegon is critical to Dany, Varys, and Tyrion arcs. Stoneheart is critical to Jaime, Brienne, and Arya arcs. The reason the ending is shit is because D&D left out the plot lines that lead to that ending in a logical way. Euron killing dragons makes sense if he's the book version, but it becomes an asspull in the show

>>218145058
If there were and I can't remember, they hardly on the level of 10 inch donkey dick flapping in the wind.

>>218144828
my only complaint is cutting "a knight who kept his vows" and Lyonel being like 20 years too old

>>218144778
The flashback to Arlan hitting him all those times did it for me probably because I remembered that line in the books too. I don’t like every joke but i’m glad its mostly played as a comedy

>>218145118
Looking back, it's crazy that Victarion was cut from the show completely. He would be so much fun to watch

How much of this guy's writing do I have to read to understand all this houselore? I feel like the main books wouldn't even have all that much in terms of depth, given they're telling a story and not encyclopedic.

>>218144191
All of them

>>218144778
The shittake got a chuckle out of me, because they are literally shitting on people who want the big epic fantasy BS. That's not what the show is about. it's just some poorfag knight and his squire, and the simple title sequence is a great way to show that after all the other shows with their big elaborate title sequences, all you really need is a title drop

>>218145118
The last two books just needed to be streamlined and given a climax and that's what the show should've done. Could've even consulted with George on how to best resolve this or that storyline or battle.

>>218145219
>How much of this guy's writing do I have to read

literally none of it because he's never going to finish anything.

>>218145118
one theory is that GRRM asked D&D not to put in a major twist, possibly 2 of Dany's dragons being dragonbound by the Faceless Men (or someone else) which seems to be where the battle of meereen is heading. that would explain how completely nonsensical season 7 gets.

another possibility is the GRRM didn't tell them everything because he hadn't really figured out what the fuck he was doing, and he just told them vague shit about how the wall would be destroyed by a dragon, etc.

george doesn't even know which characters he's going to kill off as of 2026, he at best had a list of bulletpoints he gave D&D in 2013 and today its a slightly longer list.

Now explain to me why the king couldn't have multiple wives and all the children he wanted? Is the fucking king.

I just call him that because everyone else does, personally as Rheagar's #1 fagsimp believes he's Aegon and that he looks like a 1:1 clone of Rhaegar would indicate to me is Rhaegar's

yeah he's the king, not the god-emperor of the world
kings are powerful but monarchy is bound by laws, tradition, and religion

the Targaryen kings tried to impose all of their autism including constant incest, and they were constantly plagued with uprising and friction until they had to sort of relent for a while and wait until they infiltrate the local institutions until they could do the incest bit again

it's not absolute rule, it's feudal monarchy

Do great series have generals that host the same posts like TAOOBA and Mario Naharis again and again and live whole days before next bake?
i think not

/got//hotd/ wasn't gifted with writing or restraint, /got/ was arrogant, lazy
/hotd/ whored and pandered, it was a hard series not to hate by the end, ruled the catalog for nigh on 16 years and it was still forgotten

what chance do i have, truly?

/got/ was good to me, /hotd/ weren't family to me but it kept me like we were

they raised me be an honorable general and all these other generals still can't even remember his name

his name was /got/hotd/, and i am his legacy

today for a final time
we will show the catalog what his hand has wrought

And some arcs could've just merged the book and the show material together. Like Brienne could've been wandering around the riverlands instead of standing near Winterfell, meeting Randyll, Hyle Hunt and Meribald then around episode 6 or so have her encounter the bandits at the inn and get taken in by the Brotherhood but instead of being nearly hanged they task her with rescuing a Stark girl from Boltons and some of their guys escort her through the Neck and then her rescuing Sansa/Fake Arya happens. There it is, book adapted.

The king is not omnipotent and poligamy is frowned upon by the faith, which nearly checkmated the Targs when their dynasty on Westeros was just starting, so much so that Aegon I's eldest son died of stress and Maegor had to defend himself in a trial by seven and nearly died in the process.

Beesbury is the best character because this is /tv/ where no one can be sincere, and everyone has to either be a contrarian or sarcastic 100% of the time.

I get Maekar is supposed to be more Targ-looking than Baelor but why does he look rougher, even older than Baelor even though he's the youngest?

>>218145848
Tywin is a midwit with wealth and money at his back. He's not the "all according to keikaku" 4D chessmaster that he presents himself as. Charles Dance was also miscast because heis great performance and screen charisma turned a sore loser like Tywin into a cool villain.
