I wonder if he does have a highly detailed timeline. Part of me thinks he does not and he wrote himself into a hole with all the stuff that happened in the last two books that just piled onto an already complicated story. Putting everything back into place to form an ending requires knowing the timeline with details.

I think that's exactly what has happened.

Sounds reasonable. Also, this popped up in my FB feed thanks to ariich.

He is a human afterall, can't blame the guy for wanting to just enjoy the rest of his life instead of working tirelessly but then again, ASOIAF is his baby and you would think he would want to finish for his own legacy.

I'm cool with him not finishing it but he should hand pick the writer and collaborate with the process.

Im actually surprised he said he would be ok with someone else finishing it. If he isn't going to then him collaborating with someone who will is the next best alternative.

I agree. Have you watched The Tudors?

cramx3 · « **Reply #3096 on:** January 08, 2016, 07:32:59 AM »

I disagree. I actually do not find her to be "hot" at all. Very pretty, but no where close to Emilia IMO, but I have not seen the Tudors.

Emilia is good looking, but Natalie is just plain sexy.

No but I want to though. When I saw her in the coming attractions for that show, I thought she was the most uniquely gorgeous woman I had ever seen. She's unorthodox looking but in such a good way.

I was all about Emilia because she is the dragon queen, and the color of her hair in the show made her unique looking. However, in real life I don't think there's a contest.

Those compelling crystal eyes and darling dimpled smile is....

I'm a geek - sue me. You see how the dating world is for me, so this is holding me over until I get a girlfriend or Natalie agrees to meet for coffee.

kaos2900 · « **Reply #3100 on:** January 08, 2016, 08:09:21 AM »

The Tudors is a fantastic show. Having Natalie Dormer in it is icing on the cake.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #3101 on:** January 08, 2016, 08:24:10 AM »

Is it on Netflix?

Running out for work so I'll return later on.

Geez April 24th. More than 3 months of waiting. About 2 months wait for the season 5 bluray boxset.
Need to begin rewatching the series.

And they're negotiating on season 7 & 8. I guess 8 is happening as I remember it just being just an after thought. I won't mind that at all.

Oh really? its going to 8 seasons now? That is new. I know HBO wants more, but didn't think the story would be dragged on longer.

I just read that they're likely going to be 8 seasons. I get the newsletter to my email everyday.

I hope my five year old is ready for some Tudors because that's what I'll be watching this weekend.

She's very sexy and Emilia Clarke isn't at all IMO, I thought Clarke's only appeal was that she looks very young! I think even Sansa is hotter than her.

I will agree that Emilia is not as good looking off the show, she looks great on the show and Sansa is definitely growing into a hottie.

Sansa has that fiery hair. The scenes when she's at The Vale, where her hair is against the snowy backdrop, she looks fucking amazing.

Lol, The Tudors is probably not a show you want a 5 year old to watch.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #3110 on:** January 08, 2016, 04:34:38 PM »

True that.

I'll put on Little Einsteins on my laptop for her.

BlackInk · « **Reply #3111 on:** January 08, 2016, 05:39:15 PM »

I always hoped that it would end with season 8, so that would be great news for me. The end of season 4 is such a perfect half-way point of the series.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #3112 on:** January 08, 2016, 05:51:53 PM »

Eight seasons will be nice.

So we should start predicting what the opening scene of season 6 will be. I know it's early but I'm curious to hear what everyone else thinks will start the season off.

BlackInk · « **Reply #3113 on:** January 08, 2016, 05:56:40 PM »

I don't know. I wanted season 5 to open with the "A Dance With Dragons" prologue, because it's awesome, but that didn't happen. If I had read the Winds of Winter, I'd probably have a prediction.

Prog Snob · « **Reply #3114 on:** January 08, 2016, 06:06:12 PM »

I'm wondering if it'll go right into a scene with you klnow who.I'm really excited for this.
