There are a bunch of clips where actors are getting interviewed and asked about the last season and they hit the :francis::sadcam::unimpressed::hubie::martin::ld:

There's a clip of Dinklage going :russ:talking about how dumb it is for Tyrion, who is supposed to be this brilliant mind, having everyone hide in the crypts even though they know that the white walkers can bring people back from the dead.

There's a clip of the cast doing a table read of Varys' last scene, dude finishes the page where he's killed, tosses the script on the table and goes :beli:while Cersei rubs his shoulder.

The cast knew the last couple of seasons were bullshyt.



You can just here the “:scusthov::rudy::francis:“ in the actors voices lmao

I’m still mad about how Game Of Thrones ended over some BULLSHYT Star Wars smh :pacspit:

Them nikkas need their asses beat forreal

I can't completely blame them though....all GRRM gave them was an outline of events to come. They weren't good enough and/or had writers good enough to fill in the details and we got what we got.

GRRM could only give them outlines because he doesn't really plan ahead. But that's not an excuse because GRRM worked on the show :mjlol: If they wanted they could have gotten anything they wanted from him. There's no excuses for those dudes.

As soon as I saw the episode count of the final season, I knew they were on some bullshyt. I couldn’t have imagined how bad it would be tho. Those 2 writers have life long enemies now

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
they should have replaced them, but this fat mf should finish his damn books before he’s dead

:unimpressed:
Yeah, it would be nice to have the last 2 books, he is a very talented writer for the genre, imo, but i just don't give a fukk anymore. It was my most anticipated book for a long time, but now it's been replaced by at least 10 more series I want the next books in;
KingKiller Chronicles
The Last King of Osten Ard
The Blacktongue Theif
Future Ryaria books
Future Joe Abercrombie Trilogy
Future Wayne & Wax books
Stormlight Archive
The Five Warrior Angels books
Future Cycle of Galand books (Dante & Blays)
The Gentleman b*stards
And the best part is that other than Rothruss, all the authors actually believe that they owe it to the fans to finish out stories. To anybody in here that really liked Song of Ice and Fire, please go read Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn by Tad Williams. He is easily my favorite Epic Fantasy author.

I remember you and I were asking what happened to the snow in King's Landing they showed in season 7.

People were like

"it was gonna snow but then it didn't, weather changes all the time."

It's like....this ain't The Weather Channel. People are writing the show and apparently forgot it was supposed to snow in a key location.

Final season thread is embarrassing as hell man.

Wasn’t there a season in which he stopped being involved for a good half

As far as GRRM not finishing the books or not giving them new material, honestly that's irrelevant.

Some of the best reviewed/fan received eps aren't book material. "The Door", "Hardhome", "The Winds Of Winter", etc.

The writers just stopped giving a fukk. It's as simple as that.

Yeah, I recall reports coming out that both Kit Harrington and Emilia Clarke didn't like how the story ended up being written. I also remember an article where Emilia said she felt exploited earlier in the show with her nude scenes... so you may be on to something. I think a lot of the actors on the show did not fukk with the direction the showrunners took the last season.
Work on an HBO show and expect not to reach HBO's 2 titty 1 dikk qouta per episode.

Kind of glad HBO nudity thing is a lot less forced tho.
