Yeah, GRRM really has balls. _rim shot_

Yeah, he should be a writer

@@FalloutOfTheWindow What could be whose porn star name?

@@avalus6 Ha!

Rimshot

He isn't pretentious which is appealing. He is just jolly

Has vocal fry, good writer

Same man

I like your username

I love the way you speak

Absolutely.

Yea, even better I could read his books all day. Newer ones, preferably ones that start with The and Winds.

@@xavierlucky397 ikr!

he says the same shit in every video...but i watch them all intently still

@FuckYouAllToPieces Santa Claus who kills all the good kids.

Yes. And he looks so much like Jimmy Kimmel.

He's very quiet, patient, asks good questions, doesn't laugh at things that aren't funny, and doesn't go "uh huh" "uh huh" "uh huh"

And at 3:02 he hears "I forget real people instantly" and his face drops as he realizes that, dispite being a somewhat famous person and spending presumably a fair bit of time talking with the man in front of him, he will be lucky if Martin will remember him tomorrow

Yeah, the last couple GRRM interviews I seen was female interviewers that constantly interrupted him and talked over him.

plotlines questions was kinda stupid tbh

That was gold lol

Who is he? Should I know him?

No I think he's thinking this author has can't finish his books.. he has issues and is trying to pretend he's superior and better than others, saying he's a genius etc and not like others which Grrm Literally says here. And the interviewer knows he's full of crap with a huge ego, and can't finish his story. The whitewalkers didn't add up to shit, so Martin can lie on the spot to market his work , he's a Hollywood writer so that's His job! But he didn't have any of this in mind at the time of writing. He's spinning his wheels and acting like a fucking philosopher or historian,lol he's just a fantasy writer!!! He's all tolkien worshipping , he even added the extra R to his name to copy TOLKIEN. Dude is talking like he invented a new genre FFS.. he can't even finish the books. His ego got ahead of him and he can't come to terms with his, so he over complicates it further.

George RR Martin pauses, "Sorry, what was your name again?"

TessLo so when’s your fantasy book coming out?

That and he's not working on Winds of Winter 100% of the time

Yup, he has paused Winds of Winter many times. Cons, interviews, scripts for shows or editing of other novels tend to have gotten on his way. I think he just easily gets distracted.

@@JesusGonzalez-pg9mp or wants to do more with his life than devote the entirety of it to writing? Regardless if it's his work, his passion. Breaks are needed, and he's only human. Being a writer myself, I could never bring myself to devote half my life to doing it no matter how passionate I am about it. And writer's block can put A LOT of pressure on you when you're struggling to move the story forward properly the way you'd like

@@doxasophosmoros Hey, dude. You don't need to copy and paste your reply to every single comment. Btw, I understand that you're likely upset with the end of GoT, but GRRM didn't cause that, and you're just being an asshole.

"How do you do that?" "By never finishing the stories of course"

@The Law I'll be happy if Stannis survives. I know that he will probably die, but I feel sympathy for the man.

@The Law not at all!! And he could at least be honest by admiting that he'll never finish them

@0Riam0 SPOILER ALLERT yes I know but at least I will bring my brother Gregor with me

How about appreciating that this man created a brilliant story for all of us to enjoy. He’s earned the right to do whatever he pleases for the remainder of his life.

No he forgets everything. Dumb ass..... he has a habit of making mistakes.!!!

@@doxasophosmoros Yeah, okay. Where?

@Sky Dome hahahahahahaha okay, that's pretty bad, but he does have a lot of characters to manage, and I'm guessing that was when Bran was past the wall (which he still might be in the books, but I'm not sure.) Anyway, do you have a link to a clip of that?

@@agchains78543 search for "GRRM literary corner", when he said he forgot Brann, he meant as in he forgot to menction that Brann was present in a scene that was from the POV of Jon, so its a pretty small thing

“Yeah Dany kinda forgot about the iron fleet”-D&D

@Tim Yerves I don't think I actually realised I needed this until now.

@Accretion Disk and every minute of it.....nah,I'd rather get on with my own life

He would probably finish the WW 2 faster than Ice and Fire

@@mateussouza936 patience dude.

i would rather have that but about wwI ,since that war didnt have a clear "villain"

Easy there

Plus, he can make many mistakes and then cover it up by saying well it was another perception... Lol.. he's a fucking hack. That's why he needs a team of co writers and he still can't finish And he fucked up when he added more stories, soap opera Esque rather than finishing the plot. And we all know the plot means nothing cause his ending is what game of thrones showed us. That's confirmed.

John Doe to be fair there’s only 19-20 POV’s in Winds.

well more than a decade for a book we may still havent got a confirmation that it wont take another decade

Actually he stated that wow will be published before summer 2020 so 1 year it is

Well he said the date before only to not made it, hopefully the bad finally motivated him.

@@furkanayyildiz3743 Well, actually, he implied that he plans to have it finished/published by July 2020 (not "before" that summer)...

I'd like them more if he finished the books!!

@@aquaticasmr184 at least I'll bring my brother with me!!

Except he’s tremendously less obnoxious than Kimmel

Damn!

Johnny Bravo dude be rude now

Or one of Baldwin brothers

Hands down 🙌🏾🤯👸🏾

No. Cause this author has can't finish his books.. he has issues and is trying to pretend he's superior and better than others, saying he's a genius etc and not like others which Grrm Literally says here.

@@doxasophosmoros ​ lol you might take the cake for the most triggered person I've seen in the wake of the Game of Thrones ending. Keep it up :P

Bunch of of fucking losers thats why you think youre a part of something grand watching tv when youre being fucked by the ruling class. Zombified dorky losers.

@@aineomaille4332 no you're just Drinking poisoned Kool aid and it sucks to see. Grrm is a hack. He's only found cause of the show..you didn't even know what got was until HBO,admit you fucking denial ridden deluded prick lol

Gustavo Tinelli Well I'm glad you were able to keep track of more names than there are pages in the book. Bravo I guess?

Because Fire & Blood deals with more but shorter stories, keeping track of Fire & Blood was much easier for me. I only had to keep track with certain characters for hundred or two hundred pages instead of multiple books.

Passione Nera but did you memorize the timeline since Aegon the conqueror?

@@LivingTheGoodTimes yup

fire and blood was much easier to keep track,shorter stories with no 3 person view,also almost all the characters were from king landing,from nobility,name association becomes easier,in asoaif you have a shitload of character that are common people

Damikano Fakikano the walkers will have their justice LONG LIVE THE NIGHT KING

Tolkien is still better tho

@@ComradeHellas Debatable

@@ComradeHellas i prefer asoaif over lotr every day

And Pratchett

...Okay.

H H i just started watching im on episode 4 season 1, i think this Ned Stark guy is great hopefully he ends up on the iron throne after season 8

Ryan M he does sorry

@@Ryan-yo9go Well one of these two characters is still alive in the books, sooo...

Don't you call him that! Never call him bastard!

What on earth are you talking about? Also, GRRM have given the show creators the ending of the books. I'm sorry you didn't like and is this upset, but going through unrelated interview and projecting your opinion upon people is venturing into Alex Jones territory. Just calm down.

The problem is less that the Night King died early on but more that his death had little to no impact on the remaining narrative. At one point I thought that the Battle of Winterfell would significantly diminish Dany's forces and/or the morale of the North but nope, things were scantly changed. It's really less about the plot points and more of the journey between them that the show completely botched.

@@WheresPoochie you're right. The show writers basically violated the fundamental rules of film/ scene writing. Each successive scene needs to involve a goal/ conflict/ & change and build on those before it. Within a series, that same arc needs to occur within each episode, & each season & overall. It is super difficult. In the end, it was too much for these writers to accomplish w/o the details of GRRM's books. Yes he gave them the outline but it's not the same

He also mentions Daenerys Targaryen as a threat which you seem to ignore

This interview was done many years ago, like during the second season you deluded boot licker

Yet he envisions a shit ending for his books. Those idiots Dumb and Dumber learned how GOT ends from him. He also plans to kill Dany in his books.

@@michaeltrumph121 nah m8, as long as he shows a pattern/path of Dany becoming the Mad Queen I think it's fine. Also he's established that when Targaryens are born "it's a coin flip". D&D still suck though

Michael Trumph no he didnt he gave them super brief spark notes please dont comment about the ending of the books if theyre not out or even written you dumb fuck.

@@michaeltrumph121 the only reason it was shit was because of the journey of us getting there. The red wedding is shit writing if you butcher the character building and actions and plotting because it becomes a shock just for shock rather than a story building moment that trajects the characters to do the things they do and afterward leaving you wondering 'what now' in a satisfying way instead of saying 'that was pointless'.

@Atlas Rise I sweated...from my eyes of course.

Where can I find your work? :D

Yes.. song of ice and fire is about daenerys and jon snow

insert shocked pichachu face

Well every character has equal importance in the story .in a leaked conversation of George with his publisher he said main characters of his novel are Tyrion Jon dany bran and Arya.In this interview he means that a song of ice and fire means ice (others) which are coming from North and dany with Dragons coming from meeren (fire) .George have previously said that a song of ice and fire is not a one man's story

@@alphagamer9505 there was people who thought that Jon was the song of ice and fire, which this interview confirms it's not.

this is so pure

@@landcaster1234 Whatever, weeb.

Enigma people have been saying this since the last book came out. cmon, he’ll be fine

I imagine less people would click when they realise this is from 2012.

I was thinking 2015. I still don't care, I like to hear RR Martin talk about GOT.

He does though

Shut up. He does

Nice to see a fellow one piece + asoiaf fan

@@craz5634 A fellow Nakama I see 🤝🏽

Oohh shut upppp

He does answer the titular question though. He makes lots of characters because he needs multiple points of view in order to show what he wants.

@@Haiiro87 no, he writes POV so so he can excuse all the inconsistencies.

They kinda forgot the question

More like Medieval World War 1, since it's a bunch of monarchies squaring off. Lol

@LordVader1094 And was all started by someone being assassinated for political gain due to alliances set up years before.

@@Longshanks1690 Precisely.

King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England I love how long your name is. I can’t even see when you posted your comments cause it’s off the screen.

you just blow my mind,never though of the similiarity in ned killing with the imperor of austria-hungary

People who only watched the show mourn the death of their favorite characters. People who read the books lament the death of their favorite plots in the show and that their favorite characters never appeared.

HBO made him famous. And the end is the same, the rest of his books is filler and fluff.

@@doxasophosmoros Wrong and wrong.

the author has an assistant to complete the book. I think he has completed his last two books but is still in the process

Yep! I mean it's been established already that D&D just wanted to be done with GOT and rushed the ending. They were offered money for 10 seasons. Initially they the show would only be 7. Then they caved and did 8.

dude if he didn't have the book when he is in new Zealand the next year we can imprison him the man is confident this time

Really? Did you like the last two books, the shitty last two that were the only ones to be published in 18 years.. and ppl still think his judgement is good? Lol. His insecurity reeks from this video.

@@doxasophosmoros Writing books ain't easy He created too many storylines in the last books. So he is struggling what to do with them and to tie them properly.
