If George was ever actually going to finish those last two books, he can probably shelve them now too.

Ho hum. I watched GoT but didn’t see the need for a 1,000 year prequel.

Should I Google Naomi Watts to recognize her?

They were so stupid to rush the last season. Now they’ve killed their golden goose.

I think GoT was a fluke of its time and won’t hold up in the long run. Much like Dallas of its time.

There are tons of amazing fantasy book series yet to be adapted. One of the keys to GoT’s success is that it was new ground, you’d think producers would understand that.

I’d love to see L.E. Modesitt’s Saga of Recluce on film.

With a female show runner, female director, and several “strong” female leads; it sounds like they may have been on the road to another politically correct “get woke and go broke” murder of a successful franchise, like Star Wars.

According to one of the stars, it was to be “a completely different setting. completely different political issues. And it is really poignant to what we are dealing with today.”

Uh-oh. Sounds like another liberal lecture in the making, thinly disguised as entertainment

...and took place thousands of years before the original series.

Was that found in caves?

After the crappy last season, I’ve lost all interest in GOT.

The series was to be distinct from GoT in look and feel

Begging the question, why?
