Valar Morghulis posted:Never thought of it like that. Possibly, but I think that's unlikely. As far as I remember, the books have hinted pretty strongly that only Ned and Reed know what really happened at the tower, implying that there's something fishy that only they know/knew about. EDIT: On the other hand, the implied secret could just be what we saw in the series, namely that Ned would have been cut to bits if Reed hadn't stabbed his oppnent in the back.

I didn't think that was really a secret, was it? Ned never really claims to have beaten Dayne, the story is that they outnumbered the Kingsguard 7 to 3 - I figured that anyone who heard the story would just assume he died randomly in the melee that only Ned survived.

One of those spinoffs had better be a Westeros-themed cooking show. Phenotype posted:I didn't think that was really a secret, was it?

The show dicked this up by making Ned oddly braggadocious about his swordsmanship ("when I face a man in battle, I don't want him to know what I can do  ") and also the Daynes are basically entirely cut out of the show.

Punkin Spunkin posted:It's why the perfect version of the show just makes the events of the second season take place over two seasons, and just dodge the Jesus stuff entirely. enough of that already. Also, drop those 2 boneheads (the 2 "common" guys who are main characters, cant remember their names)

Honestly after the last two "books" (2/3rds of one) I'd rather he do the spinoffs anyway. We're all going to know the end of the story by the end of next year anyway, so gently caress it. Bring on Robert's Rebellion, Dunk and Egg, etc.

Then I can hang out in the "No Spoilers" thread for it and report every fucker with a Wild Cards gang tag.

To be fair to the fat man, he does pump a lot of money into the arts in Santa Fe. He's not bring a cantankerous miser with his cash.

gently caress off about Rome, I'm still salty that they didn't give Carnivale an ending. I miss my sexy Dustbowl supernatural drama. Every prophet in her house.

i get why they didn't keep Carnivale going. it was a little too weird for mainstream audiences. great for twin peaks types. Rome though? that show was beyond excellent. even with the rushed season 2, the final scene is about the most feelgood ending I've ever had for a show. it was perfect.

I'm still holding out hope for both the Deadwood and Rome movies. Deadwood's script was just handed in and Rome's was done a year or two ago, with little movement on the project since. So I have a feeling the Deadwood one will happen and the Rome one won't.

I love Rome, but I'd be okay with that. Rome's ending was rushed but at least it had one.
