    Was watching an interview with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. He says they are straight up not giving the actors scripts anymore. They are going to be told during/before the scene whats going to happen and they are gonna have earpieces are going to be fed the lines they do. That's gotta be really weird way to act.

    Maybe. I was watching it at 1:30 am D:

    I've heard Johnny Depp has acted like that in the past though so its not impossible.

    HBO officially confirmed GOT won't return until 2019, finale will be six episodes.
    EW article kind of throws shade on GRRM, wondering if The Winds of Winter will be out by then, lol

    The fact they are taking 2 years to do 6 episodes is pretty terrible imo. No reason when these last episodes will be terribly rushed. Can't shake the feeling they are doing nothing but trying to rush to the finale

    Supposedly the plan is for each episode to be between 90 minutes-2 hours, meaning feature film length. Why do that instead of ten episodes, I dunno.

    Themes are for eighth grade book reports, according to Benioff.

    That was supposed to be the plan for season 7 and we know how that turned out.

    It's a shame we ended up in a place where we have no faith in DB & W. There would be a lot of excitement for 6 "movies" to end the series if they hadn't shit out last season.

    They've been shitting the bed for a long time, though, as far as writing quality and world cohesion. This past season just really put it into perspective how awful their priorities are as showrunners.

    Yes, the go-to excuse is that GRRM hasn't put out the last two books, but they've been setting up the TV series as its own continuity as early as S2, which has had a butterfly effect as the series progressed. Last time I checked, HBO is renowned for its screen writing in original dramas, so lacking source material is a pretty poor excuse for being incapable of writing original content.

    Unfortunately, they've made awful choices with which writers (and occasionally directors) they've hired or promoted (including themselves) -- from promoting the dude who came up with Olly to writer... because he came up with Olly... to promoting Bryan Cogman to writer, the person previously in charge of story continuity, whose mantra is now "our mistakes don't matter, viewers don't care."

    Not gonna discount the herculean efforts of the other production crew, but the show's narrative has been mismanaged big time. Went from typically deep, immersive HBO drama to frat bro fist bump hour, because D&D don't understand the source material.

    Remember that story where GRRM didn't want to give ASOIAF over to TV unless the producers knew about the world and asked D&D who Jon Snow's mother was, which ended up decided him.

    Whatever happened to those guys as we were suffering through Dorne?
