SLICKR392 Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 No spoiler, TBH. S=G, you have read the book, right?
Sachin=GOD Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 No spoiler, TBH. S=G, you have read the book, right? yeah. I've read all 5 and now I have to wait God knows how many years for the remaining 2 :mad:
sachin34357 Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 not really. Some minor ones but that should be alright. watched it :two_thumbs_up: looks good but i dont if i'll be able to wait between episodes as I watched first 3 seasons at once, watched all of bb, the wire and prison break at once as well so not used to waiting games
Sachin=GOD Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 watched it :two_thumbs_up: looks good but i dont if i'll be able to wait between episodes as I watched first 3 seasons at once' date=' watched all of bb, the wire and prison break at once as well so not used to waiting games[/quote'] I also do the same. I prefer to watch the whole season in one go (or if possible, all the seasons in one go).
Sooda Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 ^I agree but it just means you cant get involved when everyone is talking about it, AND have to be careful to avoid spoilers. I read about the ending in S1 ages ago no idea what it meant but when it happened it was not the shock it should have beemn
Desi Cartman Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Finished all 3 series in 2-3 weeks. It wasn't easy to be at work after sleeping for only 4 hrs as I was up till late watching this epic show. I can't wait to see what they with tyrion, he is my favorite character
G_B_ Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 ^ rule of thumb with GoT, dont get attached to characters...... I learnt that the hard way with book 1 and ned stark How apt he was played by Sean Bean in the series. I think most people who did not read the books would have come to a conclusion of death simply based on that.
CSK Fan Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 What the hell, don't give spoilers away I have just started book 1. Didn't start watching the series intentionaly
Sachin=GOD Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 What the hell' date=' don't give spoilers away I have just started book 1. Didn't start watching the series intentionaly[/quote'] :phehehe: BTW beware before starting the books - 5 out of 7 have been written till now and once you have completed all 5 (like I have), it will be a torturous wait for the remaining 2 because they aren't coming anytime soon.
G_B_ Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 What the hell' date=' don't give spoilers away I have just started book 1. Didn't start watching the series intentionaly[/quote'] ffs m2c LOL dont visit this thread then!!!!! its going to be hard not to discuss what happened in the TV series. but still i am sorry i shall be mindful in the future lol
Desi Cartman Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 What the hell' date=' don't give spoilers away I have just started book 1. Didn't start watching the series intentionaly[/quote'] I didnt read a single post from this thread till I finished all 3 seasons and I suggest you should do the same. What else can posters discuss here if not the story ?

Its going to be hard to wrap up so many lose ends.
Sachin=GOD Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 i feel there will be more than 2 books. Its going to be hard to wrap up so many lose ends. I don't think so. He has said that he has very clear ideas about how the ending is going to shape up. For the 6th book he already has a manuscript of over 1000 pages. Also, now there is additional pressure to complete the series as soon as possible because of the TV show so I don't think he will drag it on for another book after 7.

Desi Cartman Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 All 30 episodes since the 27th. 9 days. Is that sad :hmmm: In my defence the wife is in India on holiday. Whats a guy to do all alone at home ? I can do 2-3 episodes if the kids are asleep on the weekday. Over the weekend I can do upto 5 episodes.
Sachin=GOD Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 he has done that before' date=' book 5 has been split into two parts atleast in the UK, so technically there are 6 paperback books[/quote'] The TV show will be a major factor now - he can write a looong 7th book which can then be made into 2 seasons in the show (IIRC they are going to do this for the 4th book).
G_B_ Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 As of now HBO have planned 8 seasons. I dont think they will have issues in making that 10. They had to split 4 into two season due to some labour issues with Croatia where they film due to more locations needed to film the Essos scenes. I doubt you can write a long book beyond a point. Standard hardback especially if you are 1000 plus pages , your pushing the limit.
