Queen Alysanne™ Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Frankly I don't think there's enough material there for two seasons. So much of the fourth book at least is just exposition. I sincerely think that if they cut the fat and start the material in the last part of season 4, they can wrap up both books in season 5.However it's done, seven or eight seasons is probably the max, and eight's pushing it.I agree some characters like Dany's plot can even fill just half a season, cause all she does in meereen is sit and talk etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidenandwarrior Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 If even hardcore fans who've read the books complain about not much happening in those books, imagine the reaction of tv viewersYou know, I have wondered if they are going to push Sansa's ASOS story about the Vale to the timeframe of AFFC and her AFFC story to the following season. I think it all depends when the Purple Wedding falls in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She sits and talks and Tyrion ends up on the ship, Brienne walks, Cersei screws up, Jon bickers with Stannis. Just about all of it can be compressed somewhat. There's a lot of fluff there, especially in Feast.D&E postponned until GRRMarillion is done :cool4:Until the GRRMarillion is done or until WoW is done? Conflicting info! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maidenandwarrior Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I read somewhere that GRRM is writing the second episode, so it might be very early and then be about Tyrion's trial.I would deeply hate that. Seriously, the trial doesn't need to be more than an episode, with the trial by battle in a following ep. Then Tyrion can kill Dad in the following one. Three episodes, that is all it needs.

We know it's Tyrion, just don't know if it's new Tyrion. I'd say 80/20 it's the one we've already had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Dragone Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I'm hoping it's old Tyrion. I don't want half the book to be out in sample chapters by the time it's released.*Said the person who was dying to see a Sansa chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
