George might like killing off characters, but he thinks that the guys running the HBO show make him seem merciful.

Adam Garcia Good stories don't follow character tropes, though. George likely has more in mind than making Rickon's story predictably pointless. At least a decent less predictable pointless ending for his character's development would be him becoming King in the North or something at the very end of the story (assuming Jon's likely death).

GraverGames I don't follow the books, but it seems to me that GRRM created the direwolfs to be a representation of their owner's fates or destiny. I certainly understand the criticism though and I have no doubt that the books are better, but I fucken love the show haha.
@GraverGames
@GraverGames 8 жыл бұрын
Oh don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved the show for the first four seasons. Best tv there's ever been, and even the past two seasons are still amazing tv, just not as much when compared to the books. Direwolfs definitely represent parts of the characters' personalities, but I'm not sure they really mean much when it comes to their fates. Take Sansa's direwolf, Lady, being killed in episode 3?...for example. Kind of doubt Sansa ever dies in the story, but Ghost and Shaggydog definitely have very similar histories/personalities to their owners.
@adamgarcia7192
@adamgarcia7192 8 жыл бұрын
GraverGames yeah, it's a shame they've had to diverge so much from the books, I would also be frustrated, but then again tv shows don't have the luxury of being books that can fit so many things into 100s of pages and the creators of the show have said they can't have more than 10 episodes a season because of financial reasons. Also no offense to GRRM because he's a genius but he still isn't finished with the books so it makes sense that they've had to change things up. Although some of those changes they've made have been dumb imo. Nevertheless I still love it.

To be fair, if Conan knew about it, it was either already in the books, or had aired on tv. If it aired on tv, its no longer a spoiler, and if its in the book, technically its also not a spoiler as, whilst the tv hasn't mentioned/caught up to it, the information is out there. Same with harry potter, dobby dies in the last book/second last film, whilst when the movie came out this was something that would have annoyed the non book reader fans, the information had already been there in book form since 2007, so its not technically a spoiler as you could easily find it out, and it was three years old.

To be honest, the show is a such a large success due entirely to the great source material. What i mean by this, is that, the show runners, are not nearly as good of writers as George. It seems a lot of times that they sacrifice story quality for shock value. I think they think that a large part of the show's success is due to shock value. You see it quite often in the way they write scenes which are not in the book, or the way they kill of certain characters. To be fair, there is a lot of shock in the books as well, but every scene in the books was intentional. It served the purpose of pushing the plot, whether it be a central plot, a sub plot, a character plot, etc. However, in the show there are just TONS of scenes that force shocking moments at the cost of story, it kind of make me worry for the quality of the show now that there is no strong source material. Think about scenes like the ones containing the sand snakes, or to be honest, even (SPOILER) the where danny burns all the khals. Can we just talk about how stupid that scene was? She was in that place for a total of like 20 on screen minutes before she miraculously got every dothraki to follow her. Not to mention, when they saw her emerge from the fire, they were all bowing? I understood it in the first season, because they knew her. But this time around? MOST of those people bowing did not know her, also she just killed a dozen of the most powerful people in that place, where murder was not allowed, and they were just like "NEW LEADER" Come on, that was weak, and we all know it. It was just bad ass. Anyway, shock value aside, the two show runners aren't to reliable when they work on off source content. Between the show version of dorne, the complete borefest that is mereen, the whole sam gilly thing, the complete borefest that was season 5. It's pretty hard to say that the quality of the work that's show only, is on par with the stuff that comes from the book. Which is why i'm pretty scared of what the coming seasons will be like. I think George is pretty scared as well. Rumors are that he's writing the next book right now. Which is odd, why is he writing the books now? when the show needs him the most, when they're finally off the content that's already in the book. Maybe its because he's been meaning to get back to writing for some time, but the need to constantly supervise what he's already written kept him from doing so. Maybe its that the show and the books are going in two different directions and he wants to be able to release the ending of the book while the story is still relevant, so more people will buy it. However, a reason which is also possible is because he sees the lack of ability in the show writers, and he knows that he can't influence the show as much as he previously could, and he wants to be able to give the story a good ending, within a reasonable time period of the show ending, so if the show really does flop in the later seasons, people could get a more satisfying ending with the books. Well the George part is a speculative, but i truly do think that the quality of the shows will take a turn for the worse. Though i don't doubt that it'll still be the best show on TV history, since it's pretty much set up in a way that it CANNOT fail.

Aashna J. Awkwardly enough, I haven't. I know i sound illiterate when i say this, but they're just too complex, often times they'd mention people, i had to sit there thinking who the hell they were talking about. However, i have watched a bunch of videos on the many sub plots in the books which are not featured on the show, and the many layers of depth and story lines which aren't in the show. I also know that the show and books are going in two separate directions, so i want to finish the show before i give the books another try.

+thekingof300 That's totally fine. Instead of sounding illiterate, you infact sound rather well versed with Got(ASOIAF). At least you understand the complexity of the series and look beyond the nudity and blood ,unlike my friends who watch the show. All I would like to say is that Daenerys is awesome in the books.(Ik its random but Dany in show is such a 'trailer character' in the show if uk what I mean)

Now in season 6 , most of the plotlines and characters developed throughout all of previous ones felt like waste. And now i am waiting 9 filler episodes to build up for last one. bTW the shock value you were talking about doesnt apply to me anymore, it may be effective onto 60 year old soap opera viewers who also watches discovery channel in their free time before daily midday sleep

The change's this season have been super insignificant. If you are talking about different scenes, there's a TON of filler this season. If you want a season that deviates from the book's a lot, arguably season 2 is probably the worst offender, SO many thing's are different.

I haven't read the books, but I do watch a lot of reviews and discussions and read a lot of articles after each episode that detail what was different and what was the same... and from what I can surmise, even at it's most different... this is still one of the most faithful adaptations in motion picture history. Anybody complaining about differences is splitting hairs and not looking at this in perspective to how different most adaptations are. This is a big pet peeve of mine with books fans. They're often way too married to the original material. This is because when you read a book, you're imagining it in your head, so you can make it just the way you like it. Whereas a show is presenting it in a more concrete format and you have to accept it more or less the way it is. You'll find that some book fans are more accepting, because they probably aren't as stubborn about having things just so. But some book fans are so stingy about wanting the EXACT SAME experience they had when reading the book, that there's no hope for the show to ever be able to read their mind and present things exactly the same. The worst example of this that I saw recently was a guy on KZfaq who was complaining that the Oberyn vs Mountain scene was "ruined" in the show, because it didn't do things EXACTLY the same way. He had imagined this scenario where Oberyn purposely lost the fight to be a martyr, and was disappointed that the show didn't explicitly convey that, even though other book readers were telling him that the book never explicitly conveyed that either, it was just a fan theory and that this scene was one of the most accurate to what was in the book. But he was adamant that it was "clearly" conveyed through the subtext (bit of a contradiction there) that Oberyn had thrown the fight. He had imagined the scene in a way that he liked when he read it, but the show just presented the scene as it was. The disparity wasn't between the show and the book, it was between the motion picture format and his imagination. I find that many book fans have this problem when they complain about differences. The show may do things differently, or even sometimes exactly the same, but if it FEELS different than what book fans liked when they read the book, then they're upset. I feel like a lot of people have unrealistic expectations with adaptations a lot of the time. Their expectations are too specific. Adaptations often are not supposed to get the details exactly the same, they're just concerned with getting the big picture captured. The overall arcs and themes. Not necessarily specific traits, moments, details or subtexts. Any adaptation that DOES do those things should be considered to be going the extra mile, not "doing it properly", because there is no proper way to do an adaptation. And slavish faithfulness to details doesn't necessarily make an adaptation good. Take The Shining for example. Stanley Kubrick changed things substantially in his adaptation of it, and it's a transcendent film that has a revered place in film history. Whereas Stephen King wrote an adaptation of it for a tv movie in the 90s that was more faithful, but it was a terrible movie. Sometimes, making changes to suit the strengths of a different format are what's necessary to make a good piece of art. I'd take that over blind faithfulness any day. And I have heard book fans say that some scenes have been better in the show than they were in the book. Sansa's defence of Littlefinger at the Eyrie, for example. Apparently that was really different in the book, but the way the show did it was actually more interesting. Maybe other scenes are worse, but you win some, you lose some. Take the good with the bad, and keep the big picture in mind.

A.W.S. Vids My complaint is more of how the timeline has changed more then anything else. The Viper vs The Mountain was good, and Oberyn didn't throw the fight per say more of got caught up in his revenge instead of finishing him off. Still gets him though, because a Dornishman's blade has a terrible kiss......hint hint ;)
