The first 3 books were great....then a long hiatus...then book 4 sucked...then a hiatus...then books 5 to 7 were godawful with one of the worst endings ever.

Dark Tower and ASoIaF are very much alike.

King got hit by a car and the near-death experience made him rush the poo poo out of those books so that he could give the series closure before he died, which is the opposite of ASoIaF.

Granted if GRRM got sideswiped by a minivan we'd probably see the contents of his LiveJournal double within the span of few months.

100% of my exposure to McShane is the movie masterpiece that is Hot Rod.

This might have been the very last time I ever went to see in a movie in a theatre without knowing a thing about it (me and my high school buddies just showed up and went "uhhhhhh......that one") and goddamn did we stumble on to something great.

I remember on the deluxe Sin City dvd they had a sped-up version of the entire movie with none of the special effects put in and I would give anything for a similar version of GoT

Not only do I not expect him to meet that deadline but I also expect that he will post a lengthy blog about how he's come to the realization that his story is so complex and interweaving that he has decided that he must extend the series to 8 books. devote more time to his true passion project, GEORGE R. R. MARTIN'S WILD CARDS

Oh this book, should be bigger
Should be bigger but you...
You can't make me
The lengths that I will go to
To mess up the color of eyes
Oh no, I've wrote too much
I think I'll stop

That's me at the convention
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my book series
Trying to keep up with HBO
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've wrote too much
I haven't wrote enough

You thought that you heard me typing
You thought you heard your fax machine
You think you thought you heard me try

Every chapter
About every waking hour
Of Dany's shittin in a field
Trying to keep this page about poo
But my editors a fool foooooooool
Oh no, I've wrote too much
I think I'll stop

Consider this
Consider this, the hint of the century
Consider this, oh poo poo I forgot and now it won't work
That brought me to my knees, failed
What if all these hard fantasies come
Flailing around
Now I've wrote too much

You thought that you heard me typing
You thought you heard your fax machine
You think you thought you heard me try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That's me at the convention
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my book series
Trying to keep up with HBO
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've wrote too much
I haven't wrote enough

You thought that you heard me typing
You thought you heard your fax machine
You think you thought you heard me try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, Dream of Spring coming in 2019.

Fingers crossed that the series finale is just an hour-long remake of that "The animator suffered a fatal heart attack" shot in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

The fact they haven't shown us a scarred zombie-Mountain face - particularly given how unsutble the show is and how they haven't tried to hide who Ser Strong is - suggests to me they have some kind of reveal planned for the face. Like maybe it's Ned's or Robert's or something ~shocking~ like that under there. In the books, yeah, seems to me that Ser Strong is likely literally headless, but show-Strong explicitly has a head, and implicitly has the head of someone important or shocking given the above.

Maybe they're hiding his face to keep from confusing the audience after having recast him yet again
