Rito 0 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 The books are so awesome. I'm loving these extra details you get in the books that you don't get in the HBO version and everything starts to make so much more sense. I saw some reviews for books 4 and 5 and is it really true that there really "isn't any plot in the series after book 3" ? Well, if it is then hopefully book 6 will pick up for that slack.. whenever that comes out in a few (?) years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if it is then hopefully book 6 will pick up for that slack.. whenever that comes out in a few (?) years. The thing is Books 4 and 5 are split: Book 4 focuses mostly on the characters located on the south: Cersei, Jaime, Brienne, Sansa, Samwell Tarly, The Greyjoys, the Martells etc. while Book 5 focuses on those located on the North: Jon, Davos, Tyrion, Daenerys, Bran, etc. I don't understand what people mean by "no plot in the series after book 3"... there certainly is. I believe they are just saying that because Book 3 was just Perfect on all proportions, so Books 4 and 5 pale in comparison I guess. btw: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4WWIJIPLP0 The music I can't @ Nedd and the Wilding EDIT: BY THE WAY I PICKED UP MY GOT S1 SET TODAY!

That makes sense then and hopefully it won't bother me too much having to read a whole book before reading about some of the other characters. Just glad I don't need to wait years between the two books. haha. I hope I end up liking all these new characters that get introduced after book 1. From what I'm reading on here (but not anything spoiler heavy) it seems like I'll really enjoy reading about this Brienne. :P I follow someone on Tumblr who's watching the show with their mum right now. I could never watch this s-x heavy show with my parents... and this person was like "I hope episode 6 has no s-x", but I warned them about the like 5 minute long loud moaning lesbian scene with Little Finger in episode 7.. It's like watching a ****o with your mother. edit; lmfao. that video. Bran: The whitewalkers. :lmao: Edited March 10, 2012 by Rito Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much every single character goes through their own dark journey. I could never watch GoT with another adult around me- it just gets so awkward sitting there watching those heavy s-x scenes with someone else. Seriously that Lesbian + Littlefinger scene was just unnecessary. Btw ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw So, since books 4 and 5 are like that do you think they'll merge them for the HBO show so they can include all the characters in each season? They could still get 2 seasons out of both books.. or maybe even more than 2 if there is enough content there. edit; I mean if books 4 and 5 take place at the same time.. which I obviously don't know yet if they do, but I assume so. I really need to read more than 1-2 chapters per night because at this rate I'm never going to be done with it. I've not even got to the end of episode 1 yet. Going to make it a goal of mine to read at least 4 tomorrow. It's not that I don't enjoy reading them, but I start it so late at night, so at the end of 1 or 2 chapters I'm then super tired and really can't continue reading. Absolutely loving the book. Haha, yeah.. I feel awkward with make out scenes around adults, so these HBO full out naked s-x would be unbearable with an adult near me. That picture. Well, now we know what's going to happen when they say they'll talk to them when they get back.. Edited March 11, 2012 by Rito Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea this is what I was thinking: Book 1= Season 1; Book 2= Season 2; Book 3 Part 1= Season 3; Book 3 Part 2= Season 4; and then Books 4 and 5 together= Season 5 and 6. by the way, Yet another Trailer for Season 2 ! *"THE MORE YOU LOVE" SEASON TRAILER *http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6Uo0XTBKjs *Cersei's beginning to lose it :nacho: *"I'm not your little Princess" * Edited March 11, 2012 by King ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Although i must say i do regret spoiling myself about whats probably going to be the season divide in the swarm of swords) Depending on the timing on future books, they could almost spread books 4 and 5 across 3 seasons if the show was catching up too fast too Edited March 11, 2012 by Alijandro Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I fear about this series is that the general audience won't be able to warm up to all the new characters that get introduced in each book- and there's many that get introduced. Plus each character has their own major storyline and I fear that the audience may simply not "care" about certain storylines as much as fans of the books series do. Yea some characters cross paths along the way, but most are literally out there on their own, so we'll see how this works out. Also a few pages back, I posted a LittleFinger interview where he mentions that he signed up for 6 seasons of GoT so... 13 users are reading this topic Oh btw, look what I found: Dany and her dragons Edited March 30, 2012 by King ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
