Anyone watch the series?
Sure! I wonder if he will ever finish.Blackhorse":n5kfonw7 said:I didn’t watch the HBO series but I did read the existing 5 books which took YEARS thanks to GRRM’s grossly extended publication schedule...still 2 not published.
Does that count?
I still feel it was a great series, but you really can't compare a couple guys who weren't professional writers to a guy who might be one of the great writers of a genre. Adaptations aren't easy, so I'm not taking anything away from them in that regard, but once they ran out of rich text, it was a new, lesser world.Fight'n Hampsters":hj0ebobl said:Not a bad TV show, but I do think the last couple of seasons were rushed and prevented it from becoming a great series.
Yup, I agree. I think way too many people got way too bent out of shape about it. I had read the books, so that prevented me from being surprised with all of the twists and turns for most of the series. while I did like the series, I probably would have liked it much better had I not known what was going to happen.Zeno Marx":q7aasfdk said:I still feel it was a great series, but you really can't compare a couple guys who weren't professional writers to a guy who might be one of the great writers of a genre.
