agirlofwinterfell replied to your post: all the posts about GRRM feeling sad about GoT...
he trusted David and Dan who were supposed book fans.
he also trusted people who answered to an studio and network execs, he even said it himself that there’s people from higher up that push and want certain things and they end up having to answer to and service those needs
he worked in TV, he knew how the business worked, he spoke about it at a talk with my writers class years ago about the exact reasons why he walked away from doing TV to do writing for for books and later ASOIAF in the first place, he should have known how things would go, and he should have known never to give away the rights without having the full thing completed, he should not have been naive about the TV business that he knew full well how it worked, he was literally telling us young writers about that very thing, so he should have known
even if they were supposed to be book fans, those two still have to adhere to a certain audience and the suits who pay them
he should have known better than to trust the business
he should have focused on writing his books and getting them done instead of getting involved with the TV production and all those things that came along with it, especially when he knew it would affect his writing process
if he had finished those books before giving out the rights, he could have at least focused and directed the show towards the conclusion he wanted but he took it with chance and risked the materials floundering without a path to the ending, he put himself in a place where literally no author/adaptation has ever been put in before - an adaptation getting to the ending before the source material did
he should have never risked that, especially when he knew how his writing process was never going to be as fast like other authors might be
maybe this is just me, but I expected him to know better, there he was years ago telling us advice about the business when he wasn’t even listening to those same advice - he put himself in this unfavorable situation when he knew better, knew the risks, and chose to still take the risks like hopping in front of an oncoming train
all the posts about GRRM feeling sad about GoT ending and how it could have been different and i’m just...sorry, I have no sympathy
instead of feeling sad, maybe you should have finished the fucking books, George
you had plenty of years to get the books out and have it done but you wallowed and waited and turned your focus on other things
you’ve worked in TV, you knew how things would go, and yet you still decided to naively risk it and give away the rights before you were even done with the books
i don’t feel bad about the show surpassing you, i don’t feel bad that they’re gonna do an ending that’s not what you envisioned because guess what, maybe they would have done what you wanted had you figured out already what you wanted and wrote the fucking books before you gave away the rights to make the show
the only people i have sympathy for are the book fans who have been waiting so long for a satisfying ending to the stories they loved
and quite honestly at this rate with your involvement in all those prequels and other stuff, i’m not holding much high hopes that you’re even gonna deliver for those book fans what they wanted
the only reason i hope you do is that i don’t want the book fans to be disappointed twice
just fucking get the books done, George, stop getting distracted by whatever new thing pops up or because you have write when you feel it’s right, JUST FUCKING WRITE THE BOOKS ALREADY YOU’VE LITERALLY HAD YEARS
why are people getting pissy just because someone doesn’t like what they like?
seriously? grow the fuck up
everyone has opinions on things, that’s life, art is made to be criticized and judged on everyone’s views
if it doesn’t work for someone and they don’t like it, then they don’t have to like it, it’s that fucking simple
and if you like something they don’t like, well guess what, you can continue to like it all you want, just because someone doesn’t agree or doesn’t like something doesn’t mean you have to not like it, you can easily block or unfollow or post on your own damn blog about how much you love it
literally it is not that hard at all
guess what? i still enjoy the show, i still like it, and i will probably always enjoy it for what it is, you don’t see me running around bitching at people on anon just because they don’t agree or don’t like what the show did
IT’S CALLED BEING A FUCKING GROWN UP AND REALIZE THAT PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS AND IT’S A FUCKING TV SHOW AND IT’S OK TO DISAGREE
stop acting like babies about it
anyways
@zcldrizes is awesome, that’s all i’m gonna say
the only thought through my head as I watched this episode...
what if Serena turned into a goldfish and did a “get help” to distract the Night King by throwing her fish self into his arms in the godswood before Arya totally shanked them all?
who says Magikarps can’t be useful?
all I’m gonna say is LYANNA MORMONT
Hope Mikaleson + saving the day
Serena Star asking the most important question that should be answered:
so....if Arya is a Faceless Man, Sansa is the Lady of Winterfell, Jon is a Targaryen, and Bran is the Three Eyed Raven...does this mean I can finally be a Goldfish?
agirlofwinterfell replied to your post: @agirlofwinterfell @worshipsonlydeath i just...
Only the adult men involved in the red wedding ����
which is probably like every adult men in the house LOL
except maybe the musicians :D
i just realized how awkward the meeting between Arya and two of my muses are
Olly: sorry i stabbed your brother in the heart
Steffon Frey: hi you killed all the adult male members of my family so now i have to be lord
blog probably won’t be back to proper active RP status until two more weeks and my exams are over :D
but i’ll be here lurking and plotting (and maybe doing some revamping) since GoT is back and i need a place to scream lol
sometimes i still scream in happiness and being proud that i picked Summer Fontana to be the faceclaim for Serena Stark since I wanted Serena to look a younger version of Sansa, and now Summer is gonna be appearing as the younger version of Jean Grey whom Sophie Turner also plays
STARK SISTERS RESEMBLANCE HELLS YEAH
how my GOT muses are reacting to the events of this season:
OLLY:
i’m so stressed, just let me die already
SERENA STARK:
this life is entirely unimpressive, i wanna be a goldfish instead
STEFFON FREY:
when you march your army north to fight for the Starks but you think you’re really just gonna die because you’re definitely catching a cold
