Do you think the Dunk & Egg novellas would work well as films?

Book, show, movie, graphic novel, whatever; I just want to find out what happened at Summerhall!

So you're saying there's a chance! ext_2058420 October 1 2015, 00:48:39 UTC

My favorite part of this is when some half-assed news source invents a quote that then gets picked up by several half-assed news sources until it makes its way to usually more reliable sources that use the less reliable sources as a chain of evidence even though each source simply used the previous as part of their chain of evidence in order to qualify the quote as reliable.

Just out of curiosity... ext_3185527 October 1 2015, 00:51:01 UTC

Makes perfect sense to me. Out of curiosity, in a totally hypothetical world where wishes are reality -- let's say a movie is made, what would you like portrayed on the silver screen? The Dance of the Dragons? Regency of Aegon III? Aegon IV? DUNK AND EGG? the War of the Ninepenny Kings? Or a blow-out LOTR conclusion to the story?

No one is going to make a movie from some entirely different epoch in Westerosi history, with a whole new set of characters.

If there ever is a movie, it will be part of the current saga, and will star the actors and characters the audience loves.

Now maybe if that one grosses $300 million dollars or so, we can start talking about some of the ideas you're floating there.

But it's all hugely unlikely.

If a successful GOT-era movie ever happens and producer people now want the other stories set in the world, what would you (Mr. Martin) personally like to see on the big screen before anything else?

Never gave it any thought.

The number of people repeating this movie rumor as fact and are then freaking out about it (in both good and bad ways) is pretty ridiculous. Whatever happened to verifying information before publishing it anyway? Oh. Right. Tabloids and "news" sites that only care about clicks. *le sigh*
