I mean, come on...if you had a choice, would you rather be a Clegane or a Stark? Frankly, I think the series might be better off with an ending where Arya is the girl who settles down, get married and has a castle full of children and Sansa is the one who decides to remain (mostly) single and childless for the sake of politics and personal freedom. Like a Barbrey Dustin. Or maybe she becomes like a Donella Hornwood who, despite desiring a spouse and an heir, is very selective. I'll never forget how inspired Sansa was by the relationship between Ellaria Sand and Oberyn Martell.

If we have to get back on the SanSan merry-go-round, I do think that there was a lot more to the whole UnKiss situation than what meets the eye. For one, it's one of the biggest examples of the unreliable narrator/false memory thing that is one of keystones of the entire series. Honestly, it's a huge thing that doesn't get talked about enough in the fandom. GRRM has gone on record to say that there will be more instances of the Unkiss situation in the future with one of them being huge. Secondly (and most importantly), I have heard only a little about the green dream thing. I don't think it's a green dream. I think what happened was a warging situation. Because don't forget, Sandor wanted to take Sansa away and leave King's Landing....and then he wanted rape Sansa?! I'm still very confused about his logic but I think that he has always been more than just fond of Sansa. He ended up doing none of those things when he could have. Instead, he stopped short at holding her at swordpoint and asked her to sing to him before he dipped. As if he was under some sort of spell. Why couldn't it be a situation where Sansa did some low-level skinchanging. Why not? She did some skinchanging later on in A Storm of Swords with that one blind dog in the Vale.

I’ve seen plenty of guys on the forums thirsting for her—talk about the power of personality! I remember Sansa finding Ellaria intriguing, but I don’t remember her being that interested in her relationship with Oberyn. I wonder if George has decided on Arya’s ending yet? According to Ed Sheeran, they considered killing her off in season 7. According to the app, the Hound had no intention of raping Sansa, and that when he spoke of “taking her,” he meant it as “take her with me.” I think this was one of those times when George meant one thing and the readers took it to mean another (i.e. Cat and Jon). It would explain why the BotB episode (which he wrote) and comic book were adapted differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I don’t like D&D, reading their comments about how they wanted season 8’s episodes to be the top fan-rated of all time makes me feel sorry for them. I can only imagine how much of a shock the backlash was. On the one hand, yes, it was delusional, but why wouldn’t they be confident about it, when all of their previous nonsense was resoundingly praised to the heavens? GOT seems to have truly become a guilty pleasure, in that ratings show that people are still watching it, but pop culture indicates that they don’t talk about it. It used to be considered high caliber, now it’s considered schlock. I suspect that HOTD will also have a big audience, but I don’t know if it will be big enough to compensate for that enormous budget. Season 7 deserved *a lot* of criticism for its sheer silliness, but that did not materialise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that HOTD will also have a big audience, but I don’t know if it will be big enough to compensate for that enormous budget. Well, to be honest, season 7 did not get half of the praise that season 6 (mainly the last three episodes) got and season 5 got ENORMOUS amounts of backlash and bad press at the time. I wasn't even a fan at the time and even I knew about how problematic the series was. I also remember people complaining about the show as early as season two or three on account of how pornographic, amoral and sleazy it was. Who is still watching GOT again? Because I tend to hear people complain about it more than praise it. HOTD having a big audience? Maaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyybeeeeeee. But it seems that TPTB at HBO recognize that the Daenerys character got an awful deal as a lot of their recent advertisement seems to be honoring her. In the end, I don't think people will like HOTD either. A lot of the plot beats at the end of the story are way too similar to the final season of GOT. Multiple claims to the Iron Throne; a female Targaryen is the chosen heir and beloved by (almost) all; female Targaryen gets her birthright stolen out from under her by evil scheming politicians; war breaks out with dragons and heavy losses are taken on both sides; female Targaryen finally takes the Iron Throne; female Targaryen is so unstable and paranoia from the war that it prevents her from being a good ruler; it falls apart and almost all of the dragons die; female Targaryen is brutally murdered by male relative only for him to be taken out of the picture; and the traumatized, depressed little boy ends up becoming king... We've seen this before!!! Come to think of it, it seems like D&D had no real ideas of their own for the last season and were too lazy to just do what they were told so they just wrote a poor adaptation of the end of Fire and Blood 13 hours ago, SeanF said: It was all so rushed that Daenerys’ ostensible allies and supporters were turning against her for no reason. Instead of people reacting to an increasing unstable ruler, what we were shown was someone who had very good reason to fear that she was being betrayed and undermined. As we've discussed before, Kim Wexler's arc, in Better Call Saul, shows how Daenerys' arc could have been handled, by writers who understand characterisation/coherent plotting etc. Kim Wexler's arc from Better Call Saul is another good example. I bring up that plotline from The Walking Dead because that is how you create a showdown between two main characters with an intimate history in where one is hyperaggressive and misguided and the other stoops to the level of murder to accomplish a more peaceful solution.

Up until the last season, I think the episode where they went beyond the Wall was the worst reviewed and worst received episode of the entire series. I think most people were just holding out hope that the last season would more than make up for it. I know I was one of them. Remember hearing the reports (not rumors, reports) that the last season was going to be six episodes long but that each episode would be like a movie in terms of length? Ha!

You mean Barristan and Quentyn saying that Dany didn’t laugh at Quentyn when she clearly did? Yeah, that was weird. If it’s a premonition, it could be a set up for Hold the Door, in that it’s a closed loop. Like if Sansa kisses Sandor, thinking that she’s reciprocating from the BotB, but she’s actually making that memory happen in real time. Then on a larger scale, Hodor gets Hodor’d because Bran was always meant to make it so. Just a theory. (Also, George hinging this weird mystery on an imaginary kiss is just further proof that he and Sansa are kindred spirits haha). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what you said, and that's a huge thing to overlook - that's what is bugging him! Sandor is "sobbing" that Sansa is going through hell with the Lannisters, he blames himself because he left her, because he didn't take her with him. Even the stupid show had him say that in season 8. He's goading Arya into killing him. He looked to see if what he said did the trick, and when it didn't, that's when he goaded her more: "When Arya did not move, he said..." That's when he brought up Sansa, and he sobbed when he did - that's another huge thing to overlook. On the show, he looks away when he says "your pretty sister" as if to distance his feelings from his words (the director said he didn't mean the things he was saying). And in season 8, he blames himself for leaving her, and she tries to reassure him (as horribly written as that scene was). In the books, he uses the words "leaving her" to describe what happened, and then she echoes his wording when she "remembers" he kissed her - she says "he left me" - and that's the crux of the story. They both regret that he left her. And that is the plot ball that's still in the air. GRRM is telling a Beauty and the Beast story for Sansa and the Hound. A key plot point in BatB is when the Beast nearly dies of heartbreak while missing Beauty. And here the Hound (the Beast) is, sobbing about beautiful Sansa (Beauty) while dying. All that's missing is meeting again. Here's the very obvious giveaway that he's telling a Beauty and the Beast story for them - La Belle et la Bête ~ Blackwater. Sansa and Sandor are the only two main characters who never had consensual sexual sex on the show. In the everybody is shagging scene in season 8, she approaches him and says sex would make him happy, then holds his hand. After that episode, reviewers were like, well, did they do it? They should have, and I think they will in the books. That they didn't let her have a moment of happiness, after gutting her and her story, says a lot about them.

Agreed, plus it also implies that beneath the veneer, he does feel guilty for killing Mycah (and possibly even for what happened to Ned, since he mentions Ned’s execution the first time he brings up Mycah and Sansa to Arya). It’s kind of like how after Lancel confesses his affair with Cersei to Jaime, Jaime starts telling Illyn Payne about how he would have killed Arya if he caught her at the Ruby Ford. For some reason, everyone took that to be Jaime’s way of saying, “Mwahahaha I wanted to kill Arya! I like to murder children!” When what we were really seeing, given the context and the way the scene was written, was Jaime’s dawning horror as he realized that he was willing to attack another child to please his love, Cersei, only to now learn that she never really loved him. He did terrible things because he believed that loved justified anything, and now he has to live with the consequences. (And by the way, I’m not being smug here. I missed most of the clues and hints within this series before reading the forums. I didn’t even realize that Dunk wasn’t knighted until I saw someone mention it online. I completely missed the gay subtext—somehow—with Daemon II Blackfyre). 12 minutes ago, Le Cygne said: Agreed, just do a correction to the ages in the e-books, and print thereafter, everyone would be quite happy, they wouldn't have to ignore how messed up they are anymore.

He said this, and I think it's cute that he didn't think most people would pick up on it. Tale as old as time, we learned that story as kids. The Beast has to seem dangerous, and if we don't buy into that, it messes up the twist. The unkiss is the twist, Sansa is grooving on the danger (and danger is the code word for sexy). ASOIAF is a very sexy story, and I think people who don't want it to be, and take things literally, miss the fun. He likes phallic symbolism (daggers, swords, etc.) Like Hitchcock, he puts visual cues in the writing, and it would have been nice if the showrunners had the remotest knowledge of how to tell a story, but alas... "You will see, in A STORM OF SWORDS and later volumes [there's only been one so far], that Sansa remembers the Hound kissing her the night he came to her bedroom... but if you look at the scene, he never does. That will eventually mean something, but just now it's a subtle touch, something most of the readers may not even pick up on." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EggBlue Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I've been searching for SanSan interviews with Martin and I found this: now, I don't know what to think anymore! I mean.. in the show I thought there's a big chance that SanSan ultimately get together . in the books ,with Sandor being a much harsher guy, I started to assume their very problematic connection might take a platonic turn after Sandor becomes a true knight and with that assumption a kingsgaurd or that their love becomes doomed with Sandor's death.. the point is the romantic aspect of their connection is undeniable I also found this little clip in which George talks only about unreliable narrator when asked about SanSan scene in Blackwater and nothing more, obviously!

The Bard of Banefort Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Alright, I watched the clips. I think George enjoys talking to shippers, to be honest (for any ship), he’s such a mush I didn’t find him too dismissive, personally. It is absolutely hilarious that he says he doesn’t understand why people like characters like Jaime and Theon, though. It’s not like he’s been deliberately improving their characters for hundreds of pages now, right? On a more dour note, how sad is it seeing comments from nine years ago saying how excited they are for the next book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
