Summary: Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/4rfyo6/no_spoilers_game_of_throes_show_creators_david/d50t1ik • They haven't thought of a prequel that in-depth due to their workload. But they understand that the world of asoiaf has a lot of possibilities for potential prequels. They haven't thought about the details of a prequel. • HBO has never interfered with any of the showrunners' decisions with deaths and plots in the show. They will not interfere with their plans for the show. Up until that interview D&D had denied they had even thought of any kind of GoT 'spinoff' (except saying they would like to do a movie). I mean Richard Plepler and Michael Lombardo did bring up spin off in interviews. Well there is a difference between not interfering and making them an offer they can not refuse! |

I respect D&D but in the inevitable spin off that happens I think it would be cool for some new blood, showrunner wise.  |

To be fair, Dunk and Egg novel is very tamed compare to the main series and not a long of thing happen in it. So a tv show based on it wouldn't do much in spite that it's a spin-off to the cinematic show of all time.

Why not have a finale season instead of 2 more? I don't want to wait till June to watch the new season. That sucks.

Story landscape wise would seem they would have to do major production work in Iceland , like building sets and such like stuff. In fact more than just 6 or 7 tier one cast for an extended amount of time. One thing I can't exactly figure is even if Dany lands in Dragonstone for a while, in Dorne? for a bit, just where does she travel in Westros? I can see some , a few, local battles.... but I can't see some honking big ass melee to take KL. Then Dany just goes around meeting the populace until the bad news from the North breaks? |

The good thing about those Iceland news is that this is such a small country and has such little populace the spoilers will just be pouring in  1/10 of their citizens flew in to France for Euro so I imagine if even a small percentage of that starts tweeting what they see on the set... As for Dany I think she will go to KL....to get to the Throne. I think she will definitely see it, as foreshadowed by her vision in season 2 finale |

I think Dany will see KL blow up in the middle of a snowstorm. Then when everything cools down and she can actually go inside, she'll see snow in the throne room just like in season 2.

Yeah I think so too...but if KL blows up than Jaime probably dies there too and perhaps this time he is not successful in stopping WF explosion |

Yeah that's a good theory. I've always kind of thought that Jaime attacking Cersei would be a suicide mission, like he knows he's not gonna get out of it alive. He may have to fight through Gregor, and get mortally injured. Then with his last breath, he grabs Cersei by the throat and throttles her till they both fall dead. Something like that idk. Honestly tho, I've said this before, but I don't really like the idea of Cersei being strangled to death. I know it's poetic and blah blah blah, but I'd much rather see Jaime run her through or something like that. Not in the "fuck yeah gore!!" sense but in the more "a one handed man choking a woman to death is a little anticlimactic" sense. At least in my mind. Have her torn apart by a mob, Beheaded by Daenerys, Kill herself by drinking poison, Jaime stabs her in the back...idk I always pictured something a little more epic for the golden twins. |

I think something like this too, which , if it happens, would be interesting , ..since then.... did D&D have the whole story planned out from S2 to .... well the end? There are some other foreshadows too ... Or was this something George told them to plan for? |

I want it to be tragic, but also epic. and I like the Cleopatra/Anthony parallel. I had never thought of that. I think Dany will see KL blow up in the middle of a snowstorm. Then when everything cools down and she can actually go inside, she'll see snow in the throne room just like in season 2.

KL burning has been heavily foreshadowed in the books so I wouldn't be surprised if D&D knew about it before hand. |

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum  I've been reading your theories for a while and yeah it seems to me that Dany's vision in the House of the Undying must come true sooner or later, but shouldn't she meet Cersei beforehand? I mean, according to Maggy's prophecy the "younger and more beautiful" queen will cause Cersei's downfall and then the Valonqar will strangle her. The younger queen is mentioned not only in the books but also in the tv series IIRC, and I always thought it would be Dany (most beautiful woman in the world according to the books) |
