forkie Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 She got off far too lightly. Winds of Winter manuscript is at the publishers.. he just need to finish writing the last book.. perhaps seeing what they've done with his story will give him some motivation and inspiration to finish his story.surely they cany have completely different endings? Gen 1
Gen Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 surely they cany have completely different endings?It is not the ending that is the problem it is how they get to the ending that is. forkie 1
Stretch Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) surely they cany have completely different endings?Of course they can... He is writing a book.. it is his story.... Not the TV's story. Edit.. Plenty of examples where a book has a different ending to a movie or TV show Edited May 14, 2019 by Stretch Gen 1

Martin doesn't write something unless it important.

Tuxstir Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 The show runners plain and simple ignored 2 important storylines.. just left them out.. Martin doesn't write something unless it important.I guess I'll Have to start reading his books now..suppose its also one way to push up his sales, for the fans to get HIS ending and conclusion..

Skubarra Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 It needed at least 2 more seasons if not more. Watching the last season is like watching a highlights reel of a deep & intriguing, complicated story - it's a pity everything is such a rush. Story wise they could have easily filled 3 more series but I assume the production just grew ridiculously time consuming, expensive & large so they had to finalise it now. On the books - I don't see Martin ever finishing the last one. Clearly the scope of story just grew too big for him to handle and it doesn't appear that he has a plan or strategy on how to finish it. Also he is now stinking rich, got a whole lot of side projects as distractions + he is already old.

He needs to finish it Edited May 14, 2019 by Gen
Skubarra Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 2 books of over 1000 pages left.. 1 is done the last one is progressing well..according to the latest Martin news. He needs to finish it We have been hearing the Winds of Winter is almost finished since around 2014... And at the pace he is writing the last one will probably take anything from 15 to 20 years to finish. I would be happy to be proven wrong on this one Gen 1

splat Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 Maybe Bran actually does something useful some how. And are we sure that is was Drogon that Tyrion saw in Valyria... maybe there is another one out there? I hope there are more otherwise that spells the end of the dragon species, doesn't it ? (just read more fan theories about other dragon possibilities.Doesn't look like I will get much work done this morning) So, no new dragons then Is that the end of their kind?I suppose people will be relieved...
splat Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 cos she's not used to drilling things from behind.....? She seemed to get it right this time around Gen 1
