#EmiliaClarke says she never experienced any “bad stuff” while filming nude scenes on #GameOfThrones:

“I’ve experienced lack of care on other jobs, which I think could have been prevented with some consideration.”

By contrast, Clarke describes the sex scene in her upcoming Prime Video series “Criminal” as a dream. “I walked onto that set and saw the way that [director] Dee Rees was behaving, and I went to the loo and wept for my younger self, who did not get that.”

@NoodlezEBT1 @WeThrones Drop the act kiddo. You can't even read a 280 characters tweet.

[GoT Debunker @GOAThrones]

@NoodlezEBT1 @WeThrones I did, but weither I did or didn’t have nothing to do with the subject, so why bother replying if you have no actual argument?

[GoT Debunker @GOAThrones]

@NoodlezEBT1 @WeThrones They didn’t. They took almost 4x the time they used to take to make what was supposed to be one last season (S7&S8).

Compared to George who went from "I’m not writing anything before Winds" to "here’s Fire&Blood instead to keep HBO royalty checks coming".

[GoT Debunker @GOAThrones]

@WeThrones Wait, they are talking about the siege of Meereen? The battle that George famously couldn’t fit in the second part of the last book he published 15 years ago that took him 11 years to write?

They complaining that the show couldn’t adapt this in their 1 year production schedule?

@lordarcherr @TwasBrillig1 "A sHoW dEfEnDeR" Bro. You're probably part of the reason why ASOIAF content creators have to act stupid in order to get you to clap like seal.

100%. The journey wasn’t perfect, but it wasn’t that bad. It was actually pretty good although a bit rushed at some places which is explained by the show becoming too big for television.

People just exaggerate and focus on the missteps, because they didn’t like the destinations.

Game Of Thrones ended 7 years ago today. Here is my annual tweet saying that this finale gets way too much hate. Every character winds up perfectly where they’re supposed to in the end. That is all.

[Thrones Updates @ThronesUpdates]

Kit Harington talked about the ‘Jon Snow’ spin-off show at Motor City Comic-Con and said they “put it down for the moment”

“We did, I mean, it's open knowledge that we tried to make a, a Jon Snow show for a little while. And just couldn't. My main thing is not wanting, not wanting to go there and sort of do an injustice by the character.

As I've just said, I think he ended well. I think that he went where he was meant to. So if, if you pick him up again, it needs to be for the right reasons. But I did feel there was something left to say, and I did think the idea of exploring something kind of entirely around him or, or a lot around him would be interesting.

'Cause remember in Game of Thrones, you're part of like a huge ensemble, and it would be quite interesting to look at a character dive more focused on. And that's why I was intrigued, but we couldn't find the right thing, and so we put it down for the moment.”

Kit Harington says he feels very protective of ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 8 because of how much work went into making it

“I really wasn't very well in that final season. Like, and I find it a painful experience to kind of even look at because I'm so, so dumb. And suffering from a number of things, not least addiction, that I was like, "I actually really, from the bit I have seen, I'm quite proud of what I did, interestingly." But as far as the season eight thing goes, I feel very protective of it still.

And the reason is 'cause I mean, I guess you all saw it from the outside, whereas I saw it from the inside. So I knew — I know how much care and how much love and how much work and how much life went into making it, and the conversations that would have happened and the arguments around the table about what way to go and what thing to do. It's not a small process. It's an incredibly complex and lengthy and intricate process.

And I feel that the best people to be able to do that were the people who gave us the first seven seasons, that brought it to TV, that brought George's thing and brought it to TV. And so my feeling about it is, there may have been mistakes, but we can all decide whether we liked it or not, what we liked about it, what we didn't. But there's no doubt in my head that what they did is the right thing because they're the people who brought it to us. And I kind of stand by that.

Like, I feel very defensive of it as a show and as a season, and I think I always will, actually.”

@GilvanV01181400 @WeThrones Yeah honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if GoT/Emilia Clarke’s portrayal made the character way more popular and beloved than the books did.

@TwasBrillig1 "Not today" by Arya as well.

"I'm not questioning your honor Lord Janos, I'm denying its existence." too

[GoT Debunker @GOAThrones]

@GODDEYGD22 It’s actually becoming one of the most underrated since people constantly try to exaggerate its flaws.

That doesn’t mean it’s for everyone, but in terms of quality of production and storytelling, there aren’t many that can touch it.

[GoT Debunker @GOAThrones]

@0laribiwa That's not a shot from the episode. In the actual scene, he has his golden hand the entire time.

@thronesupdates Co-writer of the critically acclaimed "The Winds of Winter".

@RealPriyanshu9 @WeThrones I think it's the opposite. I think he planned to do it in reverse (his original plan was to finish with the Others), but he realized that he cares way more about human conflicts than the Others, so he decided to switch it. And, I agree, it was a great decision.

[GoT Debunker @GOAThrones]

How about writers who are eager to sell their unfinished work to cash out on something they know they can’t finish, so they can profit from the work of others?

[Fandom Pulse @fandompulse]

George R.R. Martin called out Hollywood screenwriters by name in a blog post, arguing no source material is safe from people who think they can do better.

"It does not seem to matter whether the source material was written by Stan Lee, Charles Dickens, Ian Fleming, Roald Dahl, J.R.R. Tolkien... No matter how great the book, there always seems to be someone on hand who thinks he can do better, eager to take the story and 'improve' on it."

Is Hollywood's instinct to "make it their own" creative vision, or just ego?
