Bear Claw Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I don't know where he is now, but I hope he is with Jon in the battle . I think Rob had more time with his wolf on the show than Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tracy18 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Lady - dead Greywind - dead Summer - dead Shaggydog - apparently dead (or not?) Nymeria - missing (God knows where she is) Ghost - missing due to expensive CGI If you thought Stark family has got a raw deal in GOT, think again. Poor dire wolves!

Animals without hair are a lot easier to do than fury ones. I guess that is why they show rather pointless dany scenes than direwolfes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have easily explained Ghost and Mels absence in some way (like, hey Mel, watch over Ghost as we go travel around). At least that way we'd have some sort of idea where they are. Hmmm...if I'm thinking of babysitters (or, dogsitters), I'm not sure Mel is my first choice given her track record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just outside the gate because kids/Direwolves? Recovering from Jon's resurrection and napping from all the stress? I love Ghost. I say an entire parallel show from the Direwolves POV. George!

Unknownfinger Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 On 6/6/2016 at 3:38 PM, DireGhost said: Lol I could see this happening.... Yea especially when actual dogs are used for the Direwolves, not 100% cgi. I sense your sarcasm just adding to it... No sarcasm at all. The fact that they need to use actual animals increases to the cast. Animals are notoriously hard to work with and can cause delays. In all serious the reason we will never, ever see Ser Pounce again is that the cat caused filming to fall behind schedule an entire day trying to film the seen with the cat, Tommen and Margaery. Fur really is very expensive to computer generate. There is no doubt in my mind the concept of the Dire Wolves have been nothing but a headache for the show runners so they are killing them off. We will never see Nymeria on the show again. I guarantee it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuelVimes Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Obviously, he's hanging out with Rhaegal and Viserion, wherever in Planetos they've gone off to... (Seriously, we have had several semi-pointless dialogue scenes filled with people who could, just as an aside, say "Oh darn, that dragon's killed another goat," or "Gosh I wonder what happened to those dragons you freed up a couple episodes ago," I mean, I get that CGI is expensive, but to the best of my knowledge just saying the WORD "dragon" or "direwolf" is still free....)

Wolves seem to be ineffective vs wights & co. Throwing the cgi budget to dragons is a sign of end game importance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GilletteMace Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 why should there be ghost if there is no jon? ghost is just his lower end sidekick mating some stray dogs in his off screen time. dogs suck and do not even taste good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
