General Chit-Chat Thread - No Spoilers

Like the number of seasons

 

[Canadian Dragon]

its also cuz the showrunners had another gig lined up

 

[Death By Looch]

it was insanely rushed, I think every main story beat could have been great the way it happened, they just had no build

I honestly didn't notice or remember, tbf... might have been due to the wait back then and not re-watching earlier seasons when the last one came out

 

[Chris]

Which I mean he'll never write them so that doesn't really matter

 

[Wiseman]

Yeah the other gig was probably what happened.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I think what happened where they were just ready to move on, got GRRM's plans for how he wanted it to end and just did it as rushed as possible. Which also spoils his books bc now I know what's most likely going to happen, I just have to hope he gets to it in a better way

LOL bro those books are never coming out imo

 

[Death By Looch]

batman?

Westworld.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

Which I mean he'll never write them so that doesn't really matter

oh ok u said this already lol

 

[Chris]

Wasn't it HBO's call to rush it or was the two show runners? I forget. But one of those two parties made the call to cut the seasons short, I do believe was the story.

show runners, HBO wanted more I believe

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I honestly think the Cercei death pissed me off the most lol

 

[Canadian Dragon]

complete POS esp that season, gets a heroic lovers death. fuck off lol

 

[Wiseman]

And it's insane that HBO wanted more, considering the price tag they had per episode

 

[Chris]

They both said they started the show bc they wanted a great live action red wedding, and after they finished the rest of book 3, you could tell they just didn't care anymore

 

[Canadian Dragon]

And it's insane that HBO wanted more, considering the price tag they had per episode

...have u seen the ratings tho. they were insanely good

 

[Hoss]
