acting as a strong comeback for Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss.

No thank you.

I’ve heard great things about this story, but I’m not watching something run by these loons.

If it’s a one and done season, I’ll watch it once it’s done. If it’s going to take multiple seasons, I’ll watch it when it’s done. It’s Netflix, so they won’t finish it.

they do perfectly fine when they are adapting existing material. it’s when you ask them to write their own story that they can’t handle it. the first four seasons of Game of Thrones were fucking exceptional. I have no idea how you turn this book into a movie though

Over its eight-episode run

It’s a series AFAIK.

I do agree they did a solid job adapting things, and I would hope the collective slap from the failure that was the final seasons of Game of Thrones would humble them.

I’m not writing the series off completely, I’m just not willing to give it a shot until after a thorough review and clear ending.
