Game of Thrones - Book Readers' Thread - Part 18

[Reek]

Got me excited for a moment there. I thought you said Talia.



Or Marion

You must have some sort of double agenda.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Marion for Jeyne Poole.

 

[Victarion]

I'm reasonably confident that the Black Walder thing is fake.

[Reek]

[MultipleJesuses]

can we change Vic name to Walda Bolton

I think he should. Tuff aint so tuff over the internet

 

[Victarion]

No one knows you're a fire wight on the internet. Nobody.

[Reek]

You can't fight fire with water. Only Daniel Craig can defeat fire.

 

[squeekness]

Pooh, naked man butt. Squeeks just got her cheap thrill of the day!

 

[CaptainCanada]

Not to get everyone's hopes up, but Tim Plester (Black Walder) is in Belfast and recently deleted a Tweet about working with Michelle Fairley.

Someone already alluded to this earlier, but that's a confirmed fake tweet.

 

[Reek]

Sean Bean recently tweeted, then quickly deleted, that he would be in 6 of the 10 episodes of season 5, along side Joseph Mawle.

 

[Victarion]

Season Five is too early for the Great Other. Nice try, Cory.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Season Five is too early for the Great Other. Nice try, Cory.

"When the sun will have died five times, a red lake will appear at the west of the city with a name both new and ancient, and it will be the sign that the fifth angel is born. The angel shall be a Falcon of Darkness. Both master of the sinful black sheep and king of the blind white sheep. The one who shall bring an age of darkness upon the world."

You may not want to watch what that scene is from. It's not very happy.

 

[Roose Bolton]

The most trustworthy friend there ever was. Plus he looks like a Targaryen.

 

[Victarion]

Anyone picked up A World of Ice and Fire?

 

[Roose Bolton]

Yeah, there are no children in Asshai.

 

[Victarion]

Essos = Lovecraft, Lovecraft everywhere

 

[Reek]

Anyone picked up A World of Ice and Fire?

its pretty awesome...

just posting once with this name to make sure its working, HR told me to make a new acct in order to save the name for when name changes are allowed again,

 

[Roose Bolton]

Essos = Lovecraft, Lovecraft everywhere

It's set up for Aeron's WoW stuff methinks. The Seastone Chair is made from the same material as Asshai and was already there when the First Men arrived on the Iron Islands...plus GRRM mentioned that Aeron's chapters would be crazy.

 

[Reek]

starring Gabriel Byrne

Glad they are dropping Tyrion's meandering journey to Mereen.

Yeah, season 6 is going to be have to be all new material unless the next book gets released next year. Which we all know it won't. Does this mean the end of the insane theory that they had enough material for two seasons.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Well, no, because they've cut just about every new storyline save for Dorne's and even then they're heavily altering it into something else entirely. Plus, for some assinine reason theyre dragging out Jon/Stannis/Sam's storyline for most of this coming season. They've said that the books are the books and the show is the show now, so the whole "AFFC/ADWD seasons" debate is pretty much irrelevant and unknowable at this point.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Lets not act like the general argument hasn't been based around them cutting a lot of material do to the quality or lack there of. I have been saying for a long while now that the material just isn't worth it. If they thought it was, they would have adapted it in the same manner they did the first 3 books. After all, they basically gave book 3 a season and half. They streamlined and changes things because the material is so blah and at times simply bad. I admire them for attempting to make the material of AFFC and ADWD worthwhile.

On another note, I don't think it is hard to figure out where they will be by the end of season 5. After all, they are talking about matching it up in terms of time.
