Neara Report post Posted June 15, 2010 What, postponed again? The fourth wasn't as good as the first three (imo) and Martin has written himself against the wall pretty nicely, so I'm curious to see how this plays out. Toggle SpoilerI want Arya to do something useful for once... Also: Don't think I wanna see that movie. Not even the Lord of the Rings (which was arguably a pretty good fantasy book adaption, thanks to being shot in one go) blew me away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarya Report post Posted June 15, 2010 It won't be a movie though, it's a tv show. But yeah, it was supposed to begin in the end of 2010. Sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Argee Report post Posted September 14, 2010 I am very fearful that the final book(s) will turn into standard fare high fantasy. Cautiously hopeful about the tv series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neara Report post Posted September 15, 2010 They left out Tom fucking Bombadil, come on. @Argee I'm more worried about Martin not being able to untangle the mess he's written himself into. Two more books, btw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hence high fantasy and magics. Knowing his style, he won't end it like that. Toggle SpoilerDany besieging King's Landing while the Others breach through the wall and overrun the rest of Westeros (which is, for the most parts, already crumbling from within). Blood, fire, dead Starks. Sounds more like him . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quozzy Report post Posted September 19, 2010 I'm quietly hopeful for this series after seeing the superb job which HBO did with Rome, Band of Brothers, Pacific. In stark contrast to ABC's Legend of the Seeker. I also agree that George R R Martin is one of the best fantasy authors, he's right up there with Robert Jordan.
