More from Martin:

 

 

 

Meanwhile, other wars are breaking out on other fronts, centered around the last few episodes of GAME OF THRONES. It is not my intention to get involved in those, nor to allow them to take over my blog and website, so please stop emailing me about them, or posting off-topic comments here on my Not A Blog. Wage those battles on Westeros, or Tower of the Hand, or Boiled Leather, or Winter Is Coming, or Watchers on the Walls. Anyplace that isn't here, actually.

Yes, I know that THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER named me "the third most powerful writer in Hollywood" last December. You would be surprised at how little that means. I cannot control what anyone else says or does, or make them stop saying or doing it, be it on the fannish or professional fronts. What I can control is what happens in my books, so I am going to return to that chapter I've been writing on THE WINDS OF WINTER now, thank you very much.

I think grrm acknowledge the liberty that taken by d&d as an adaptation.
I don't think he's angry like some authors to their book.

I have this headcanon of Martin absolutely hating the changes D&D have made, sitting in front of his computer, and furiously typing shouting out "I'll show you!"

 

Whatever gets the words on the page faster.

He already said he doesn't agree with some changes because they would snowball into bigger changes later and etc

 

and he also corrected D&D in one lore mistake they made in the shows about one of the past targaryen kings

You guys may be right or you may not be. I agree that what D&D said in the preview was very vague, but it is not the only time grrm has defended them. For example, recently he talked about the rape issue(I'm not sure if he was referring to the books or the show), he basically said kitten happens. :) I agree with some of what he said of course, but it doesn't reflect what happens in the books or the show.

 

Anyway, I skimmed through the episode last night.

- I'm looking forward to Davos' return. I hope he skins Stannis.

- In the books, I think Stannis will not have a hand in Shireen's death. Mel will probably sacrifice her for Jon, and oh ~ they're all at castle black right now, with Stannis far far away.

- Dorne is a disgrace. And why is Myrcella so snappy? She's supposed to be a sweet young girl not much older than Shireen. They shouldn't have changed her actress at all, but I guess it's her turn to be sexualised.

- Let's hope she keeps both her ears on her way home..

- Arya will probably kill Meryn Trant and not be raped by him, because she is strong and butch enough to avoid that situation unlike her sis.  :shrug:

- Hope Dany's people are OK? Did the Harpy leave because she did or are they still kittened?

- I have no idea why D&D favours Ramsay of all people. I heard he's the dark!Jon. wtf. He's a sadistic monster much like the Mountain, yet he is given 20 good men to ruin Stannis' camp, and other characters, such as Stannis, Sansa, Reek are ruined by him. They've lost their mind.

I really don't like what they did to Ramsay

 

THey kind of white washed him and made him A LOT MORE more capable than what he was in the books

White washed him?

I think there's no book reek in the show is what make him look more capable than he's supposed to be.

Yeah they kind whitewhashed him and Roose

 

In the books Roose doesn't wilts to his bastard son and accepts his suggestions

In the series however D&D changed one of the core lines of Roose's character so they could make a kind of heartwarming moment between Ramsay and Roose. 

 

 

Ramsay in the books is just a psycho sadist, he does't have much sense of fighting and strategy, yet in the series somehow he is awesome in both to the point where he can storm up an big army camp with just "20 goooood man"

I've defended this show a lot. A lot. And I might just be done with it now. That episode was so iffy in so many places. To say I'm unsatisfied is an understatement.
