I've always been optimistic about him finishing asoiaf, but the recent stuff like the Dunk and egg tv show seems to have motivated him more (ie pushing for money).
The other day he posted a second solitary cryptic quote on his notablog, this time from best president TR: https://georgerrmartin.com/notablog/2024/06/19/words-of-wisdom-3/
Previously he had this quote: https://georgerrmartin.com/notablog/2024/03/11/words-of-wisdom-2/ (this one has a blue rose image which is significantly tied to Lyana Stark)
Idk I think it's coming soon

Its been so long that i don't remember anything from the books and I know the ending for the show even though I stopped after it caught up with adwd.
Reminder that the fact that they didn't reveal zombie cat when all the slaves were chanting "mother" at Danny proves that everyone involved with the show is a hack

Yeah this was when the show fully went to shit for me. You have the perfect lead-in for a creepy zombie shocker finale, a cliffhanger that will get people talking. The showrunners must have realized that they had reached the mainstream and the masses wouldn't remember a character outside of Kaleesi, Jon Snow and the funny midget. They were probably right.

Marketing of got for casual mass appeal is what fueled dumb and dumber to make it so shit imo. They bought into dragons and zombies being what people liked about the show and tripled down. This isn't lol at the plebs but just a case of completely mismanagement of the second half and literally making episodes for millenitards to watch at a bar premire and idiots who only heard of it from parodies.
You can see hbo sort of starting that shit with house of the dragon by over hyping the blacks vs greens concept but the show runner is more responsible than that

Lady stoneheart owns as a concept. I'm disappointed they didn't give it a chance because so much is tied into it. I really hope Brienne is able to calm her and not just kill her bc it's really an interesting conflict for her sense of duty
