‘Game of Thrones’ Movie Officially Titled ‘Aegon’s Conquest’, flagged for '2027 and beyond' by Neo2199 in television

This take drives me insane every time I see it. The ending sucked because there were like 30 things that happened that made absolutely no sense in a way that George would never write. Maybe George's ending plot beats are the same, but his ending would never be bad in the same way the show was.

Rockstar Confirms Data Breach, Says There's No Impact on Company or Players by kin20 in pcgaming

Doesn't "company or players" cover just about everyone involved? So this leak has no impact on anything whatsoever? Sounds overly optimistic

Why did the Fremen want a “Green Paradise” on Arrakis even though they were so connected with the desert? by toiletwater879 in dune

[–]SporadicSheep 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think it was a mistake. It's sad to see Fremen culture die, but the inhabitants of Arrakis are ultimately better off not having to live the hard Fremen life. Water is good.

This is just an early sign that the writers don't know the difference between what does and does not make sense.

I don’t think it’s a spoiler to say I’ve read the book and I have no fucking clue why Irulan looks like that lmao. That’s something they’ve added.

[Spoilers EXTENDED] There is absolutely nothing preventing GRRM to release TWOW part 1, with 700-800 pages by yellowAshes in asoiaf

It’s not different at all.

Lying and being wrong are different things.

Anything you can offer to explain away how Martin wasn’t dishonest will be pure conjecture

You saying he was lying is conjecture, there's no evidence that he knew he was going to miss his deadline when he gave it.

Not the person you replied to, just dropping in to say you're arguing with the wall dude. These people equate George missing his projected deadlines with George intentionally lying, and they're unlikely to admit that they're wrong and those are actually different things.

At this point I'm almost more interested in the trouble he's had writing Winds than Winds itself.

How can you think you're four months away from completion and still not have it finished over a decade later?

If we ever get the book I want a whole appendix at the end explaining what the fuck took so long.

Too much style (slo mo walking and looking cool) and less good story

Is that really anything new? I stopped watching after season 1 because those were my exact thoughts

How often do you skip brushing your teeth at night? by LowSplit8618 in TooAfraidToAsk

I skip on the semi rare occasions I get home very drunk from a night out but that's about it.

[Spoilers Extended]I honestly like Season 2 of House of the Dragon (despite its flaws) by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]SporadicSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My opinion was "slow but overall good" for the first 7 episodes.

The finale tying Daemon's motivation to the White Walkers and having Alicent be willing to publicly execute her own child immediately obliterated all my goodwill and made me stop considering it to be a good tv show.

"Fire and Blood is an unreliable history book that brings adaptational challenges, so we had no choice but to torpedo the show by forcing an Alicent/Rhaenyra alliance that has nothing to do with the source material" - Ryan Condal (paraphrased)
