Game of Thrones

[SD]

this show is securely #1 on my all time list now. there is no longer a (1b)

It may have surpassed the Wire with the past episode *igybatsignal

I agree with all the godfather references. very similar and very well done in this episode.

Arya takin care of biz.

started re-watching the series. so damn good.


wondering to myself, could there be a prequel series somewhere down the road ? these visions bran is having opens the door up to run with it I think.

Martin has discussed the possibility. I think they would look toward events of the more distant past, like the Dance of the Dragons or the Dunk and Egg stories, rather than something like Robert's Rebellion which would use younger versions of the same characters.

My preference would be Dunk and Egg because that would give them the opportunity to focus on two characters, after the sprawl of Game of Thrones. The Dance of the Dragons is roughly as complex as the time period currently depicted on the show. Plus the CGI budget would be much lower for Dunk and Egg, which took place while all the dragons were dead.

Also, neither side of the Dance is one the audience could really feel comfortable rooting for. It was a civil war between two brutal sides.

I could def see something down the road. I was thinking the beginning. when the night king was created.

[Munson]

If they really wanted to nerd out, they could make it a mockumentary type series where they take the info in "The World of Ice and Fire" book and turn some of that into single or two part episodes.

I'd love to see Robert's Rebellion and everything leading up to it/around it, but I would guess Dunk & Egg would be easiest.

Dance would be confusing as hell for everyone to differentiate between the different Targs and their dragons

Season 7 delayed for what sounds like a bullshtein reason: http://www.nme.com/filmandtv/news/-game-of-thrones-season-seven-has-been-delayed/411403

I'd marry Sophie Turner without meeting her.

Hell, Arya turns 20 soon and looks damn good outside of the show. Never would have guessed that'd be in her future after Season 2 lol.
