I woke feeling like it was Christmas morning only to realize that they'd taken the week off. Episode nine is next Sunday.

You say that as if Dunk and Egg isn't the best thing Martin's written in well over a decade.

It could definitely make for a cool prequel series. It'll be like Caprica was to :bsg:, only set even more generations back in time. Or like the reverse of TLA and Korra (which was prequel first and then the sequel set several generations later).

It's not a prequel if it is first.

There's a female equivalent as well, though I don't think Gurm ever uses that (like when Sansa thinks of dearly departed Lysa or something).

Yeah. "Mine" or "an". "Naunt" is also an archaic form of "aunt".

It happens with lots of words. "An ewte" becomes "newt"; "an ekename" becomes "a nickname". It happens the other way as well, "a naedder" becomes "an adder"; "a napron" becomes "an apron"; "une norenge" becomes "une orenge" in French, which is why call the fruit an orange rather than a norange.

To be fair, I haven't actually read any of them, so I'm not judging Dunk and Egg at all. Just that I'd prefer if GRRM would write the damned next novel before developing something else for HBO.

No episode because Memorial Day, and that tanked the ratings of the backwater ep last year, but I feel like it was also to make of all of us wait one more week for the red wedding and the shitstorm to follow. I really hope the baby thread hasn't been spoiled or expecting it, I've been waiting 3 years to laugh at people flipping their poo poo about it.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

Concept art for the next Kingdom Hearts has leaked. The new universe SORA! DONALD! GOOFY! travel to is apparently Westeros.

There's a haint in the foothills of NC; the haint of the #3 chevy. The rich have formed a holy alliance to exorcise it but they'll never fucking catch him.


So apparently GRRM said in some Spanish website interview that TWOW will be out maybe next year.

quote:

I suppose you hate this question, but how will the next book, "The winds of winter" (untitled in Portuguese)?

I will not make any predictions. I'm working on it, I'm making progress, but it is a great book. Definitely will not be ready this year, maybe next. But for me it's one step at a time, I try to focus on small things, like finishing a chapter or a page. The book will be ready when you're ready.

So if the book is released next year, will the bad thread kill itself in shock? or just kill itself?

The thread will eat itself out of existence like the hell dimension in Event Horizon. Then poo poo itself anew. The cycle continues.

Glistening Hodor is the eye-less, bloody Sam Neil, yelling about how you don't need any eyes to see in hell. Not when tin deck exists.

I think if the book somehow came out next year and was terrible, it would mostly be buisiness as usual, we would just move on to "A Dream of Spring is never coming out" and jokes about whatever the "Dany making GBS threads herself" moment was in TWoW. Now if by some miracle it came out and it was actually good, then we would all die of shock and the thread would implode.

There's a reason I said Kingdom Hearts, here. Tetsuya Nomura would be proud of that design, though he might throw in some more belts and beads.

Nomura would probably call her Targy instead of Daenerys because it's too hard to say, just like Squall.

How about "Dany"?


Also "Dany" will become a shadow of her former self, fawning over a lost love (who looks ridiculous) while other characters get real stuff done.
