GRRM might be announcing some big Winter related news in twelve days! Or not. Most likely not.

GRRM = I have some good news for you all! TWOW is now coming out in 2019. TROLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLL

GRRM has since confirmed those Xmas tweets have nothing to do with WOW. Because of course.


Season 5 of Game of Thrones is going to have WOW spoilers though!

Confirming that no, poor Sansa Stark has not been through enough, Game Of Thrones actress Sophie Turner has alluded to filming a “super, super traumatic” scene involving her character for the show’s fifth season. Turner referenced the scene on the red carpet at the 2014 British Independent Film Awards, where British YouTube interview channel Hey UGuys asked about her favorite scene from the upcoming season.

"There was one scene that I did do that was super, super traumatic and I love doing those scenes,” she said. “It was just really kind of horrible for everyone to be on set, but those scenes are just kind of what feed me, that’s why I started out, to do all the crappy, horrible stuff.”

It's starting to irritate me how much that character is gooseberry fool on. It stops being interesting.

It's also annoying because I thought she was finally getting a chance to shine and I thought her growing into it was actually quite interesting.

Maybe that happens after Littlefinger inevitably tries to rape her.

Sansa is really good later on. I always looked forward to her chapters in the Eyrie. I could not stand her at the start, but you begin to feel very sorry for her. Then she starts to play the game a bit.

So how good is this strawberry floating show.

Yep i know i'm late to the scene but i had so many shows to watch i never had the chance and then one of our friends lent me and the wife Season 1 on blu ray in late november, we watched the first show and that was it we were hooked, since then i downloaded the rest of the series and i now have one more episode to watch of season 4 and i will be up to date.

The show itself is really amazing, the writing is great, pretty much every episode finishes on some great twist or revelation and there aren't in my opinion any weak characters. Even the young starks who i thought would just be additional characters have evolved loads including some other other characters such as the hound. Cracking show and i can't wait for season 5 .

This is the book thread, I would avoid it unless you are fully up to date with the books!

oh noes i avoided all the spoilers awyway , i'll back away now.

Next book confirmed to not be releasing this year http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/showbiz/s15 ... RbpPYwjsgf

I know they can't be easy to write and juggle the show with appearances but he has had four years.

FFS.

He doesn't really owe anybody any more books. We should be lucky he's even working on another one occasionally, never mind beavering away to a deadline.

He's been up to his eyelids in Westeros for over 20 years now, he's getting on a bit and I wouldn't blame him at all if he'd had enough. Unfortunate in a way that the books were as intricate as they are, a few less plot excursions early on may have saved him a whole ton of hard graft later on trying to tie various things together. Which could have eased the writing/release of the later books.

That's the problem, you get the feeling he has the overall story nailed in his head but he has to constantly find solutions to the countless side-story/timeline puzzles all the time. He's already confirmed the TV show writers have the plot outlines and they will finish to completion regardless (assuming HBO don't cancel it which is highly unlikely).

For those of us who like to read the books first, that'll be a little weird knowing what happens to everyone before reading about it.

Unless HBO are planning on slowing the pace of the show riiiiight down and drawing things out, adding a whole bunch of extra seasons before reaching the contents of the next book. Which would hurt the show I think.

Spring 2016 is realistically the earliest it'll be.

Just read the epilogue of Blood and Gold. strawberry floating hell. The chapter where Arya finds Catelyn in the river as she's dreaming about Nymeria was still fresh in mind.

Brotherhood without banners are da real MVPs.

Imagine the reaction if they'd ended season 4 of Game of Thrones with that epilogue like they should have done.

Was thinking while i was reading that it would have made for an amazing scene. I have a feeling the show won't even mention it, they seem to be ignoring a lot of the more fantastical stuff not to do with Melissandre. Would be a good ending for ep1 of the new season.

I do find it stupid that the tv show isn't doing the Stoneheart storyline. It's too ridiculous claimed them but yet they're happy with the ice people, dragons, and religion.

I love the idea of a viewer, totally ignorant of the books, sitting through the tree zombies and the baby dragons for several seasons and then going "nope, this is too much" at Stoneheart

Not to mention the baby demon magically coming out of Melisandre's clam and killing Baratheon.

As expected the Game of Thrones showrunners have confirmed the show is going to spoil major plotpoints from the last two books.

Good luck trying to avoid those for the next decade.

"Luckily, we’ve been talking about this with George for a long time, ever since we saw this could happen, and we know where things are heading. And so we’ll eventually, basically, meet up at pretty much the same place where George is going; there might be a few deviations along the route, but we’re heading towards the same destination. I kind of wish that there were some things we didn’t have to spoil, but we’re kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place. The show must go on...and that’s what we’re going to do."
