I agree with the sentiment, but I hope it doesn’t go too hard on the Witcher vibes. That show, was…well not good.

There’s a very narrow line that I hope they can tread that both tells an engaging and interesting story whilst also keeping it fun and approachable. I think the Witcher failed to walk that line.

Might also explain why Cricket is so popular. Obviously it still requires a fair amount of physical exertion but it’s definitely a bit more laid back than something like Rugby.

To be fair to DandD, they’ve proven themselves to be pretty fantastic at adapting source material. They’re not fantastic when it comes to making new material, but adaptation? Pretty great.

I included GoT in the title because there are a few references to the events of the Dance in GoT. Obviously if you want to find them it’s easy to do so but I think it’s important we have some structure in place so that people know where they stand.

If I was choosing I’d favour a tagging system, whereby posts have explicitly state that they can include or exclude spoilers.

Or maybe I’m overthinking it.

A new HBO GoT series based on an incomplete book series. Worried… absolutely not…

Nah I get you. And tbh I’m not sure if we’re going to get these completed either.

I don’t think we’re ever getting that Summerhall story. George is very good at teasing his readers, and I think that exactly what he plans to do here.

Let our minds fill in the blanks.

I’m a bit worried about how they’re going to approach the stories tbh. They’re somewhat lighter in tone than the main series (although when it does get dark it gets pretty dark).

I’m also excited to see where they go regarding casting. They have to nail Dunk and Egg, if the two leads lack chemistry it’s going to nullify everything else the show does right.

Some great looking shots in the series. The shot where she flips whilst on Drogon is one of my favourites, even If I hate most of what happened after.
