Based Robert Kirkman, creator of the Walking Dead, explains his dissatisfaction with the ASOIAF creator
>"I would never do that," Kirkman says. "That's the one thing I'm disappointed in George R.R. Martin for doing. He should have just been like, 'F--- you.' You make it up now, I'll get to mine when I'm ready."
>...said the creator of one of the most boring comic books ever, on which the shittiest tv show currently airing is based on.

>you will never sniff the anus of a beautiful woman after she has shat out her morning logs and the boquet is at its most powerful and some crystlized poo crystals whaft up your nasal passarges
Landon Hill
Robert Kirkman shits on his own creation though
Dominic Cruz
>look it's a turd calling a shit a nigger
David Foster
So a shitty spoke the truth?
Jayden Ortiz
He should have just been like, 'F--- you.' You make it up now, I'll get to mine when I'm ready."
Isn't this exactly what GRRM did? He told HBO to 'make up' the story for now, while he would take his time writing 'his own' version 'when he's ready'.
I'm not a native English speaker, so I may be wrong here, but I find this choice of words a little unclear.
Christian Thomas
Truth comes from the most unexpected places.
Elijah Ross
>walking dead >anything but a meme show
Alexander Phillips
Thread but he is still right, this fat fuck should have rushed the end of his book goddammit
Sebastian Brooks
He didn't got the video were Martin says he considers HBO fan fiction and get away with it because of a big ass check.
Not canon, so they can do whatever they want
Sebastian Ward
George, stop shit posting on Sup Forums and finish the fucking book already.
Jaxson Howard
>this fat fuck should have rushed the end of his book goddammit
And ruin it?
Jonathan Green
That quote is taken out of context, if you read OP's image you see he's complaining about that, GRRM letting the HBO writers to change the story any way they want.
Nathaniel Hall
its been forever since i read ASOIAF and ive only seen a couple episodes here and there of the show but can someone give me a quick tl;dr of all the changes the show has made?
smirkfu doesn't play that big of a part in the books from what i remember and jaime pretty much says 'fuck you' to cersei and then goes off and does his own thing but now in the show he's helping her again or something? no i wont just go to /got/
Michael Roberts
fpbp
Jace Turner
This guy's had his tires pumped a bit too much.
Brandon Miller
>George, stop shit posting on Sup Forums and finish the fucking book already.
>finishes >it's the shittest ending ever.
Jeremiah Rivera
He's absolutely right but also completely hypocritical. The Walking Dead went totally off the rails even in Season 1, it was clear the comic was just a very loose basis for the series..
Lucas Brown
Kirkman is a sellout hack who needs to shut the fuck up and go on a diet.
Liam Baker
Reddit is fucking pissed ITT. How dare he say what you dumb cunts rattle every other hour.
Caleb Davis
So Kirkman wanted George to be further hack in having D&D have to now make everything up themselves while George continues not to finish the fucking books?
Kirkman confirmed hack
Wyatt Howard
There a crapton of changes >they ruined Dorne completely >they ruined Jaime >they ruined Theon >they changed Cersei, although show Cersei it's not that much of a bad character >they ruined Stannis >too much shoehorned feminism >they ruined Euron >they ruined the Ironborn plot in general
Jack Lewis
Where is the link you overeager fuck?
James Long
he's right, fuck the fat man
i honestly can't believe more people aren't mad as fuck about it
not to mention the books have enough content to EASILY fill enough 10 episode seasons until he's finished with the books, but for some reason they cut 75% of all the material because they had to pander to their retarded audiences and just wanted to get to the omg so ebic set peices
fuck dumb and dumber, fuck hbo. fuck Grrm
Brandon Robinson
wouldn't be any worse than having the major plot points revealed by D&D who have no business writing dialogue that isn't a dick joke
Austin Smith
Kirkman is writing comics that come out in months and Martin is writing a novel that is more than 1000 pages.
Kirkman writes multiple comics, works in telivision, and has even been given the reigns to transformer movies oddly enough. Sadly GRRM is just a sickly fucking Mexican.
Elijah Bailey
grrm wrote some plot points for D&D on greasy pizza boxes but im sure like 95% is made up by them at this point
Alexander Allen
tv viewers should be pissed. While i get to read the pure unadulterated story you are stuck with what some ex saturday night live writer came up with while being high
David Adams
>implying there was anything to ruin in the first place
Jacob Adams
>that pic
why does grrm let them do this
Matthew Powell
I wonder if he'll have the same feelings in 2017 when TWD catches up to his comics
Christopher Bell
He considers the show fanfiction. And as long as he gets trucks loaded with money he doesn't care. Verbatim.
GRRM's writing isn't genius by any stretch of the imagination, but at least he puts far more effort into it than Kirkman does.
Logan Harris
The user above me is not the world's biggest faggot
Jackson Russell
Bullshit. It's very real. Its out of context but real.
John Barnes
>says the guy that allowed Hollywood Jews and faggots to completely fag up his based characters and turn his story into the piece of shit that it is today...
Jayden Campbell
>shittiest tv show currently airing
You are literally autistic if you really think this
Ian Rivera
This
Kayden Jackson
they can both go fuck themselves
Cooper Wilson
Don't see what the problem is.
RR doesn't care about the show, that is not his vision, his work of art are the books. Why would he be upset about people who are too lazy to pick up a book and thus wouldn't even be aware of his work are now enjoying a waterdown version of his story. He collects his paycheck and he expands his readership of A Song of Ice and Fire.
Jason Morgan
Blame the audience not the writers. The audience wants something fast, some twist, some cliffhangers. When screenwriters try to do something different their shows get cancelled after 2 seasons. The Sopranos and The Wire are from the past now, the audience changed with internet.
Nathan Robinson
This is a sensible reply
Blake Watson
>"Now that I'm King, let's go kill my niece and nephew" Good job dnd for writing such a great story.
Xavier Cruz
i'm under the impression he told them a few wew moments from TWOW but i believe that he's kept almost all the ADOS revelations to himself. I expect ADOS to be totally different than s7/8 of the show, but start at a very similar place.
William Carter
It's pretty funny how fleshed out characters of an adaptation of a comic book feel vs Game of Thrones approach of "fuck it were HBO just give us your money we gotta get this shit over with okay?"
Why is HBO in such a mad rush anyhow? Don't they want to make money? George and DnD are each other's worst enemies.
Caleb Lee
I think the most shocking reveal for ADoS will be that it never gets published.
Jose Stewart
Its a catagorical fact. Anyone who knows good writing can see it really is bottom of the barrel
Jason Thompson
I like Invincible, so fuck you
Kayden Green
HAHAHA is he delusional? GOT has won numerous awards. The Walking Shit has 0. He's just salty HBO laughed his edgy picturebook out of the office.
Lucas Wilson
And i like game of thrones. We're both guilty of liking mediocre media.
Justin Morris
Animated series when.
Adam Moore
Game of Thrones and ASOIAF are both schlocky trash smut but they are still better and more original than TWD
Brandon Howard
>nooo muh rick and neegan muh shitty show
Blake Thompson
i agree
Colton Carter
>one talentless unoriginal sellout hack said to the other
Jeremiah Wright
No, it's not.
That quote as written doesn't exist. It's made up.
Look it up on google if you don't believe me. The only source is the image
Carson Hall
He told them the ending and some other shit like.. Wait for it..... Get hype for it.... #CLEGANEBOWL
Ian Taylor
The Walking Dead is a good show, I enjoy watching it, but it just doesn't compare to Game of Thrones.
Eli Rodriguez
I think Image doesn't even understand you can do that. they must believe DC and Marvel have a patent on the media of animated shows. they've got so much stuff that would translate well and they don't even try
Christian Jones
You must be retarded if you think that TWD or it's shitty spinoff isn't the worst show currently airing. And no shit shows on Fox, ABC, TBS, TNT etc etc don't even count.
Logan Cooper
>wouldn't be any worse it undoubtedly would've been.
Chase Nguyen
I think they compare rather well, both are bloated as fuck and very far up their own asses
Chase Cook
>ADOS >ever coming out
Henry Moore
yeah, i think they are basically the same show with either a zombie or fantasy setting
Luke Ross
Weiss did actually say this in the Inside the Episode video for that episode, where Arya hides needle. And the text is taken directly from AFFC. Sorry dan, read the books.
Levi Sullivan
The best thing about Invincible is the contrast of the bright colors and the shocking amount of violence, it'll lose that in a LA adaptation, that and the budget for a movie would be way better spent on a series.
Robert King
Is it confirmed?
Grayson Ross
>finishes >it's just a long cliffhanger for another book
Cooper Hernandez
The Walking Dead is one of the worst shows on television right now, worse than many basic cable shitfests.
I'm not even memeing, I hate that normies compare twd to GoT just because they're on the same level of popularity, or even worse compare twd to the other amc shows.
Joshua Rodriguez
I'm afraid no matter the ending, it will never satisfy the fanbase.
Robert Roberts
I hear people say this all the time... But then they mention what shows they think are "better", which always ends up being some pleb tier shit show.
I think Rome was a great show, Spartacus season 1 and the pre-season was excellent too.
Really hard to beat that, but it went downhill with the recasts, and Rome for some stupid reason was cancelled.
There, I gave two top tier examples of better shows than the Walking Dead and Game of Thrones.
Nathan Evans
>and Rome for some stupid reason was cancelled. Money isn't stupid.
Rick feels like a character that's been through 6 seasons of hell. Jon Snow feels more cookie cut than a Bioware videogame protagonist. Sgt. Ginger Handlebar and his autistic sidekick Eugene feel more genuine than every living soul in GoT. I have no idea how anyone geeky enough to post about tv shows on the internet would like GoT S5-6 over TWD S5-6.
Jason Edwards
rome was the only show or even movie for that matter where Rome actually felt lived in. It was all dirty and shitty like all big cities are. Usually you just see shiny clean structures and it feels so new and fake
Kayden Diaz
I am not surprised Sup Forums people are this uncultured they believe this image
Ethan Long
They're not even on the same level of popularity. TWD is way more popular and has twice the viewership of GoT even when factoring in pirating and other shit. That's because it's actually the better show and appeals to more people.
Joseph Sanchez
...
Mason Hughes
Does he not remember the shitstorm surrounding the show based off his own series? How the original concept guy was pushed out by AMC? That they blatantly changed the storyline until it was nothing like the comic? The budget issues? The ruining of characters? The lacking the balls to kill anyone off in a significant way ever again after Hershel?
Adam Bell
It's ok to be mentally retarded. There's a lot of sub par government programs to help you
Logan Turner
>mfw Invincible is the original Murderman
Jacob Powell
...
Luis Watson
and that's okay, since the character was never meant to be like superman
Chase Reyes
Then why didn't he do anything about all the changes to TWD?
Gavin Cox
>that sword is the way she will exact her revenge... its the instrument of that revenge
the hack failed to explain Arya and Jon's relationship and why it was so special to Arya.
Jeremiah White
BAD PUSSI DABID
Joshua Gutierrez
wait a minute, so the books won't be the same as the show? top lel. well i imagine he must do that, not as many people would bother with the books if they knew everything.
Luis Allen
that's bold coming from one of the worst season finales on television fuck him
Leo Fisher
Image doesn't have anything to do with it, they don't own Invincible or any of their books, Kirkman and others do. Imagine how difficult it would be to fund a hyper violent ANIMATED series that would 40+ episode to cover at least of the source material.
You'd probably get Bojack Horseman tier animation.
Ethan Rodriguez
Or when his new show catches up to the comics in just one or two seasons.
Easton Sanchez
>lemme change the argument
Top kek
Jacob Peterson
well you do one short season and see how well it's recieved. if it gets cancelled it gets cancelled, but you at least try. besides how expensive are 2D animated shows? i think live action shit would cost a lot more
