I was talking this through with some colleagues at work today. Didnt she refuse a drink when Tyrion was talking to her and he made the assumption about her pregnancy, yet she was drinking a lot when Euron was angling for a shag with the queen... so there is some possibility that she’s lost Jamie’s in the meantime. My memory is a bit foggy so it seems plausible.
The night that she and Euron hit it, when he left the room talking about putting a baby in her belly, she was caught up in some emotion and almost shed a tear.

At this point the only character and story I'm interested in is Arya.

Dany as a pouty kid with no strategy and no plan is not very engaging. I mean, seriously. She had two dragons -- she could have done reconnaissance and seen Euron's fleet from far off. And even if she hadn't, she KNEW they would meet at some point.

Dany makes no sense at all. She's a queen, with an army, that breeds dragons, and can build, rule, and defend a kingdom in Essos, her actual homeland, larger than the whole of the seven kingdoms under the Iron Throne. What part of this do I not understand?

I love the Arya/Hound duo headed off to King's Landing to confront the Mountain and the Queen. I hoped Sansa and Sandor would get together--I've shipped them since Book 2--but I was satisfied with their little reunion at Winterfell. Everything else in this season kinda sucks. It doesnt feel like GRRM had anything to do with any of it.

If it wasn't taking him SO DAMN LONG to finish the book series, we wouldn't be in this mess.
Thank you, Lady Stoneheart, Aegon Blackfyre, Arianne Martell and every other thread of plot bloat that has kept this fucking story from finishing.

I think you mean Wild Cards, new wife, writer's block and every damn project in the whole world that looks briefly interesting.

That too, but if he didn't write himself into a corner to bloat up the plot, he could be done by now.

Unless he has finished but isn't planning on releasing the next book(s) until after the TV series has finished, whether to maximise his royalties or because HBO are paying him to delay publication or both.

3 prequels from what I've read.

GRRM claims that he was surprised that the books weren't finished before the TV series got to the 5th book.

Five projects, one is definitely a prequel, but three in total have meaningfully moved ahead. One has started casting and is slated for production, and has cast Naomi Watts. The other two have just started moving forward and don't have anyone attached yet from what I've seen.

The prequel with Naomi Watts will also have Miranda Richardson. It takes place thousands of year before Game of Thrones and before the Wall and Kings Landing existed.

Today's lunchtime conversation...

Lunch Buddy: You should watch this interesting AOC documentary on Netflix.

Me: Sounds cool. I'll check it out as soon as I catch up on Game of Thrones.

Lunch Buddy: Oh, you like Game of Thrones? My cousin is a producer.

Me: 🤨

Lunch Buddy: (shows IMDB on phone, guy has same unusual last name and looks just like Lunch Buddy)

Me: :freakout:
