TheLostStark Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Don't forget all the new POV characters that pop up, Iron Islands and Dorne, surely they will have to do some of that. And Sams voyage should take a good bit of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaegars Heir Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 a lot of people seem to assume a dream of spring will take as long as the other books and that's not the case GRRM has everything set up for dream and by that point things will just fall into place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jslay427 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I'm hoping for a kill bill approach, where the material is released within a very short time frame. It will take longer for it to come out, but Atleast it comes out before the shows overlapping the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBadboy Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Some thoughts: 1. Nothing we've seen from Littlefinger in the trailers is anything that didn't happen in Storm. In fact, his quote from the newest trailer is directly lifted from the third book when Sansa gets on the boat with him. 2. The Titan of Braavos may be making an appearance in Stannis' storyline rather than Arya's. It's confirmed that he's going there to meet with the Iron Bank. If that's the case, it will certainly be earlier than episode eight since he has somewhere to be in episode nine. 3. I think it's more likely that Feast and Dance will be about a season and a half, with the major events from the early portions of Winds happening in the back half of season six.1. Sansa has 1 chapter between Lysa and The boat. Just one! So you are saying they are just going to fillers with these from the 3rd till the 10th episode. And in Feast also it's only 3 chapters!!! That too the most useless Sansa chapters, the show can't involve all Royce and all the Vale houses!!! And I have no idea what LF is going to teach her for more than 10 episodes -_-2. I said it's rumored that it is going to feature in 8th Episode, and as if it is 8th episode, it has to Arya and not Stannis like you yourself pointed out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhaegars Heir Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 it's already been what 4 years yes four years to write a book that's main job is to set up the last book. ok it goes like this a the first book set up the story then next 3/4 furthered the story and TWoW is going to set up the last book like someone sets up dominos once their set up you just need to knock the first one down and everything else follows quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarklessFace Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 This will be the last season i myself will watch. Season 5 will definitly spoil something. This will also mean completely avoiding the internet until, idk, 2030? When ADOS comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rystine Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 exactly there's so many new characters and plots that they'll have to take their time to make them satisfyingOr they'll just significantly cut down the new characters, or even eliminate them altogether. The show is going 8 seasons max, so they don't really have the time to drag out the story as it was done in Feast and Dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant bring 6-8 new characters all of a sudden in a completely different setting.Sam's journey will take the same amount of time it took from Crasters to wall.Totally insignificant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Roberto Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 exactly there's so many new characters and plots that they'll have to take their time to make them satisfying They didn't take their time to make the BWB satisfying, why should they bother with the ironborn or Dorne? Might be they'll butcher these severely to fit it all in one season. Ex: they can cut out Quentyn's character and have someone else release the dragons. That'll save a lot of his travelling time.

So yes, there will be invented scenes in the Vale most likely a wedding hwere they can introduce the Lords Declarant to the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jet199 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Braavos is on TV because Stannis is going to the Iron Bank rather than them coming to him. I think the shelter Bran finds is likely to be the village where they stop and eat some man flesh. I think the can easily drag Theon's story out over 3 or 3 series, he easily has the most interesting stuff happen in his ADWD chapters. LF doesn't train Sansa that much even in AFFC so I can imagine they will add a bit more in the show, the question with Sansa's story is when does Lysa's death occur because that is her story relies on the training theme much more..Dany needs to get into Meereen before the actual harpy plot kicks off, I don't think that Meereen will be wrapped up this series. Rather the cities she has conqured will fall into ruin, the Harpy will be just start killing people, Drogon will eat someone and the series will end down for Dany. The next series will be Dany actually trying to bring peace to Meereen, Quentyn arriving, Dany flying off and the Battle for Meereen (which should have been in ADWD anyway).I'm not too concerned yet. I actually think they may want the series to catch up with the books so the show watchers and readers can't spoil each other so much. It wouldn't surprise me if ADOS is released just before the last series starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D&D have routinely said over the past couple of years that they're aiming for 7 to 8 seasons. This is further confirmed in the latest article on WiC.net.

RoamingRonin Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 No there really isn't. D&D simply can't afford to spend two seasons spudding around with Feast and Dance because significant parts of both are just filler. Preach. I would bet money Dany arrives in Westoros next season.

Katt.V Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 They better not cut Dorne, I was so looking forward to those scenes.And I don't care if the show spoils the books, better than GRRM rushing to finish them and making a mess of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
