Regarding GRRM should hurry up and finish the series, video game legend Shigeru Miyamoto said "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." That applies to pretty much any creative endeavor.

My reply to the original comment is "Duke Nukem Forever." But I do agree he should take his time with the series. It needs to be good in his eyes for us to think it's great. I do however feel it will e very awkward once the show catches up with the books, as the show will either have to go off on a tangent with their own conclusion, which will always be hated by purists and possibly preferred by fans of the show, or GRRM will have to reveal the ending before the series is finished, therefore ruining the books for it's many fans.

@rayaqin 8 лет назад

Politicians should have no reason to lie, the dumb crowd of sheep created an environment in which only dishonest selfish greedy men can really be successful as politicians. It is still not an excuse for dishonesty and greed. That said George R R Martin doesn't let the mob pressure him into writing simple-minded crap like the writers of the GoT tv show. He writes it the best way he could possibly do it. And that is a quality politicians should have.

+MyBlog1 he did say he is no longer feminist so I hope he sees the kind of cancer it has become. I also hate how they even compare fantasy with reality, an average female is not going to be no where near as capable as brien in terms of strength

@theminisimmer 4 года назад

@@austingenovachek2803 well, the people in GoT have a very different ethnicity (Andals). They seem to be a lot stronger and a lot smarter than the real world equivalent (Caucasian), so perhaps a woman from that ethnicity can very well be born to have the strength and build of a man. Perhaps it's a genetic defect exclusive to Andal females. Either way, I really like Brienne. She wouldn't be the same without her brute strength.

@micksmith219 8 лет назад

@SolidShepard 8 лет назад

+mick smith well for that to be, then it would also have to be A+N/B=J. and I know people always site that the timeline doesn't fit for Ashara Dayne, but remember this is a world where lich Kings roam, and winters and nights last for years....and magic.....and dragons.....so would it be such a stretch to say they probably age a little differently than in real life? these are the questions people should be asking themselves

@chrisyjo890 9 лет назад

I know the whole Rhaegar and Lyanna story is too obvious in the books. But I hope that theory is true that R+L=J . And that George did not change it because fans guessed this and got it correct, not to say it is correct, but if this was Jons true parents, I don't want him to change it to someone else.

@CarlSinclair 9 лет назад

Christine McKenzie It's only obvious because people have put it all out in place online and it's become THE most popular theory. Most people come up for it themselves on the first read, but a lot of people don't. The hints are clever.

@phuckewe178 9 лет назад

Christine McKenzie Who is alive to confirm if Jon Snow IS actually a Targaryen? Ned is dead, Aemon is dead, Benjen is MIA, Caitlin is dead, Rhaegar and Lyanna are dead. So WHO alive can confirm this? I thought Aemon was going to last long enough to meet Dany and tell her about Jon, but they didn't go that route.

@Ellis_Hugh 9 лет назад

The main reason why fans 'guess' the storylines is the 5-8 years between each book that they have to read, re-read, discuss, cross-reference and discuss some more all of the hints and clues... if the books came out more than once a decade more people would probably be surprised.

might be the other way around George RR Martin is a gifted writer no doubt about this but at one point even he can run out of ideas the internet, with enormous amount of information, can provide great inspiration to a clever man so at some points he can ( and perhaps does) study the ideas posted by fans, and co forth with the story accordingly... actually this might explain the incredible growing complexity of GoT imho

@carloslaredo8840 9 лет назад

krix pop But he already said that he know how the books are going to end, and what is going to happen with every character.

I hope he does well.

@ericeinarson6654 9 лет назад

Now, not sure if this accounts to anything- but Game of Thrones is based on the war of the roses, between the houses of Lancaster (Lannister) and the house of York (Stark)... In the real war of the Roses, The house of Lancaster eventually wins- now, I don't think for a second that he would have copied history to the point where the book reaches the same outcome... but it does beg the question- I mean, so much of the books are based on real history, and so many events match real one. Some examples; -The Red Wedding; Based on the 'Black Dinner' where the king of Scotland invited a rival clan to dinner, and proceeded to kill them all at the feast. -The Reins of Castermere; the Reins of Castermere were an actual house in medieval England who rebelled against the English king and were eventually all murdered. The sigil of house rein in Game of thrones, like many sigils of the houses, is identical to the house it's based off in real life... -The Wall is undoubtedly based on Hadrian's Wall built by the Romans across the North of Britain to keep the picts out of Roman Britain... So many things that run parallel to history, I wonder if the end will not somewhat be similar as well?

Phuck Ewe Bran may be able to see it in av vision in the next book. It is said that people with greensight can see through the eyes of veirwoods. Lyanna and Raegar visited a veirwood and something happaned there that we don't know. Maybe they got married there, or made Jon.

@rickw1066 9 лет назад

Actually jojen reeds father would know and he is still alive, and melissandre is looking like a likely candidate to be the one who reveals it

@tictacufo3326 8 лет назад

+varun009 It's not a point of knowing or not knowing, it is acknowledging who he is, what he created. Without him there would be nothing.

@JackGreen1905 8 лет назад

+Diego Golo I think its just to pull in viewers, say I type in "Game of Thrones" in RU-vid I may find this video. Another point is that after watching a Game of Thrones related video. RU-vids algorithms may recommend me this video because Game of Thrones is in the title. Sky's way of pulling in viewers I guess.

@tictacufo3326 8 лет назад

Imagine if it were Harry Potter, they would 100% put J.K Rowling, they would not put "the author of Harry Potter". Idk, it might be stupid but it bothers me

@rubysultra 3 года назад

I wish Martin could understand that when we guess his plots and then read those plots....we feel awesome and connected to another person who thinks along the same lines. He should love that we guess whats happening....no one elses books are arousing such passion and creativity.

I hope Daenerys and Jon don't end up together.

@TheLastSane1 9 лет назад

Lidi Silva Why they are roughly the only two decent people in that world. Both are Targaryens if the theory is true and Jon marrying he would give him the validity of the throne.

@lidis9348 9 лет назад

But because Jon is so honourable, I think if that was what was going to happen, he'd stay in the night's watch.

@TheLastSane1 9 лет назад

Lidi Silva Except if he dies and is revived he is no longer bound by his oath to the Nightwatch, it is an oath to the death, upon death his oath is fulfilled.

@purwinrommel5568 8 лет назад

Of course he's going to mention Tolkien. Tolkien is a huge inspiration of George's. He also always talks about Tolkien because he is constantly asked about Tolkien. I swear to God, in 9/10 of his interviews he's asked the same goddamn things.

If only Bioware had the same philosophy for writing stories.

@johndims5098 8 лет назад

I've never seen a game in my life that has a story and characters of this caliber. On the bio ware note... Kotor was great, me1 was also a great story (they kept getting more actiony after that) the dragon age series is quite intense and is chock full of lore and other goodies, even books have been published for it. Despite that's it's nowhere near as intense as GRRM stories are, they're still great stories

@johndims5098 8 лет назад

jaime ruiz I don't think so

@Spartansoldier217 8 лет назад

@cannonfod1346 5 лет назад

love that guy. and I found the answer I was looking for.. he thought about changing stuff cuz ppl found out about his plots and plans but he didn't. And now he totally ignores us so he doesn't have that feeling anymore and thank the heavens for that cuz 100% he would soo change John Snow's theory about his mom if he found out that ppl know his secrets :v

@htdep1916 8 лет назад
