It's missing the preview text but it's referencing the video clips of GOT actors doing the table reads and being visibly upset lmfao

Old Kentucky Shark posted:Kind of. Really interesting. Is that based on your marketing knowledge, or just conjecture? Marketing decision making loving fascinates me. As an aside - Hobbs and Shaw looks loving dumb as gently caress, and also for the first time, I sort of feel I could enjoy watching a FnF movie. I mean it's just beyond goofy as gently caress and might at well be an anime or something. I _want_ to give these people my money.

I bet we could get that donated in no time. Anime? Check. Game of Thrones? Check. Hire Jordan Preston to write the script? Check. We could get this whole thing done for about $4m. I'll start calling some of the producers I work with, who wants to open the GoFundMe page?

Can HBO make that decision. Sub-licensing seems like it would involve GRRM too. but yeah that’s a very tiny amount of money.

Go directly to Gurm. If he smells more royalty checks and a chance to blow off another deadline you can prob get the rights for the cost of a TGIFridays dinner

I am not an entertainment/IP lawyer but I'm pretty sure a firm can syndicate a TV show while continuing to use/rent out the relevant IP as it wishes, because those are separate transactions involving separate rights. This isn't about buying the rights to air the Game of Thrones TV show starring Sean Bean, it's about buying the rights to the characters, setting, etc. for use in an another project.

I just want a cartoon that leans into all of GRRM's loud colours and big numbers and castles made of dragon statuary, instead of covering everyone and half the sets in rags and leather

That is certainly possible but the proportions still look wrong. It's a narrow blade and doesn't look like a greatsword, it just looks like the artist started drawing a blade but forgot to draw a tip on it. It's a minuscule thing to be bothered by but bother me it does. Possibly because I'm a sperg. On the flip side, I can forgive Robert's visor being open as an example of heroic nudity - it works better for the art to show his face, so the artist does. Same as how ancient Greek artwork showing hoplites going into battle naked was meant as an artistic statement rather than an actual representation that they went out all

From what I’ve read fighting with your visor up was pretty common; those things seriously restrict peripheral vision.

It actually looks like they drew Rhaegar with a spear, for some reason but maybe they meant it to be a sword, I dunno.

Fun story: the first French translation of GoT, back when it was just another fantasy novel for dorks, was... not good. Inconsistent name translation, baffling word choice, random vulgarism in an attempt to out-edge the grrm. But my favourite bit was when Viserys or something says "we are the House of the Dragon." As in, obviously, a noble House, a dynasty. Obviously. Well, you guessed it, the bloke translated as demeure du dragon, i.e. a literal physical house. A dwelling. Like Targs have a door in them and furniture and there's a literal dragon going in and kicking back inside them after a hard day's work. Twenty years and I'm still laughing.

It's probably just that it's being held so close to the "camera." Also, GoT is over. Go back to reading real literature instead.

I've never read real literature in my life and I'm not about to start now  Of course, I also haven't read anything GRRM-related since Dance came out. I've read and re-read other series since then but no re-reads for GRRM, certainly not.
