>HBO is doubling down — no, quadrupling down — on its epic quest to replace Game of Thrones.
>The pay TV network is determined to find a way to continue the most popular series in the company’s history and has taken the highly unusual step of developing four different ideas from different writers. The move represents a potentially massive expansion of the popular fantasy universe created by author George R.R. Martin. If greenlit, the eventual show or shows would also mark the first time HBO has ever made a follow-up series to one of its hits.
>Most of the assigned writers have experience writing major theatrical films, and Martin is personally involved in two of the projects. The show ideas are from Max Borenstein (Kong: Skull Island, Fox’s Minority Report); Jane Goldman (Kingsman: The Secret Service, X-Men: First Class) along with Martin; Brian Helgeland (A Knight’s Tale, L.A. Confidential); and Carly Wray (Mad Men) with Martin.
>HBO isn’t revealing any story details at this time other than that the shows “explore different time periods of George R. R. Martin’s vast and rich universe.”
Pitch your spinoff Sup Forums, and speculate what we will get.
The Lannister kids favorite uncle, who they all loved. He went on a voyage to old Valyria to retrieve the Lannister house sword and never returned.

>that fat fuck will take even longer to finish the books as he rolls in more wads of cash Fuck
Oliver Green
Pls be Jorah: origins
Henry Williams
Endgame right here, brothers.
Jeremiah Wilson
they're definitely going to do a roberts rebellion miniseries because it's so closely related to the main series. after that i can see them doing a dance of dragons miniseries.
dunk and egg is possible, but they'll probably remove bloodraven because they completely ruined his character in GoT and he's apparently a thousand fucking years old or some shit.
Gabriel Morris
Yeah, when he gave that interview saying they might end the tv series with a movie trilogy you could see the dollar signs in his eyes. "Well those dragons get real BIG by then, we might need a BIG screen to handle it. Ho ho ho."
Easton Nguyen
Wait, didnt he lose the sword on the voyage not go to save it?
Brody Ortiz
i dont know why people want aegon's conquest. it's pretty boring tbqh. it'll just be three cheap CGI dragons breathing fire on everything...
Joshua Thomas
I seriously feel like I'm gonna puke. Fuck HBo and this shitty show's fanbase and all neckbearded nerd manchildren. Where is Roger Ebert when you need him to put a stop to all this madness.
Lincoln Ramirez
Why not just make it an anthology series?
Brayden Gray
No, some family member was visiting Valyria when the doom happened. So he went there to recover it. Tywin later send half a dozen separate ships to find him after he disappeared but no one could find him and most didn't return.
Caleb Sanders
>GoT cinematic universe
that's it lads
Joshua Ward
hehe
Still better than "The Call of Duty Cinematic Universe" that one gets me every time.
i'd like to see some of the stories. D&D won't be involved with whatever gets made, they will just be execs collecting money, so who knows, may turn out to be alright.
95% of show watchers probably dont even know who dunk is
Elijah Reyes
GRRM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anthony Perry
...
Grayson Bennett
They can learn, it's not that hard. They'll watch anything with the Game of Thrones label slapped on it.
But yeah, most likely the HBO executive would share your opinion and make a Rebellion series.
I really hope they recast Ned and Dayne and completely reshoot the Tower of Joy scene. Won't happen, sadly.
Jaxson Smith
This is why the ASOIAF fan base is cancer. Always trying to sound like they are the most educated fan even though anyone in this thread interested in this topic probably knows much and more than you because there is no fucking end to the series and there won't be so all there is to do is study the series in detail. It also makes me laugh when retards think there will be closure on more obscure topics like Gerion Lannister. The fat man will never even finish filling us in on what happens to his main characters.
ASOIAF is honey to the normiebear trying to feel smart. Definitely worst fan base in our era.
Alexander Martinez
I'm still shocked at how autists can fly into a rage over the most inoffensive of posts.
Ethan Price
>Definitely worst fan base in our era
that would be the rick and morty people
Oliver James
>ruinings asoiaf it literally does nothing to the books that exist, stop being one of those. you can still enjoy something and not enjoy other things that are related to it
Gavin Wright
Keep crying Sup Forumscuck
Zachary Nelson
checked and keked
Juan Allen
of course stein
Jace Hill
It's not even close the the worst. Its not even within ten miles of the worst.
Think of The Walking Dead fanbase. Think of TheFlash/Arrow fanbase. Think of the Vampire Diaries fanbase (eight seasons!!) Think of the fucking CSI fanbase, like people with CSI:Miami posters up in their house.
Angel Lewis
this.
prequels suck because you already know what happens in the end.
Asher Cooper
THREE WORDS: HELLA FUCKIN' EPIC
Gabriel Martin
ive only ever seen old people watch csi
Camden Young
I would like to see a Coronation Street style drama in Kings Landing. Just people living their daily lives, trying to get by under Lannister rule. No dragons no magic swords, just people drinking mead, doing their jobs, loving, living.
Ian Phillips
Jesus fucking Christ
Why are they rushing to finish Game of Thrones by shortening seasons and merging book plots if they're planning a gozillion spinoffs? Because they didn't want to have somebody other than Dungeons & Dragons direct the main show?
Martin is a fat cuck and ruined it himself
Luke Martinez
Are you 9 years old?
Benjamin Hill

Austin Powell
Well, you know what, user?
You don't have to fucking watch them.
Owen Mitchell
He does though, or he will be left behind by dank memes and pop culture references.
Colton Watson
was not planning on doing that. just their existence makes me sad enough. sad that all this money, talent and cutting edge tech wasn't used to create original and thoughtful entertainment.
Brandon Jones
Actually it will be 4 series of queen Danaerys bringing much needed feminism and diversity to Westeros and ending the patriarchy and Andal privledge.
Luis Rodriguez
We need a series following a time-traveling Bran
You can call it Dr. Hoot
Charles Lopez
It's;
>new Star Wars movie every year, forever >new Game Of Thrones season every year, forever >new MCU capeshit summer movie and new tv series every year, forever
Drink it down. Drink deep.

>Sup Forums begging for roberts rebellion for god knows how long >suddenly it might actually happen >waaaa this is bad
Proof that this place only cares about being contrarian.
Grayson Gray
Hopefully the actually ending of the show is actually good at the spinoffs are prequels giving characters more story. That's the only way I see these not being dogshit.
Jaxon Campbell
Remember when HBO was synonymous with quality?
John Sanders
And Avatar.
Lincoln Phillips
Fine for me, more interesting than the endless Marvel, DC and SW universes, if we're talking about popular stuff.
Connor Parker
>Martin is personally involved in two of the projects.
Winds of Winter confirmed for never happening
Leo Wood
you speak about gerion. he went to find the sword loosed by another lannister you twat

>>Sup Forums begging for roberts rebellion for god knows how long you mean Sup Forums rejects who have been here since 2011 and fucked this place sideways and never left?
yeah ok i guess 'Sup Forums'
GoT plebs
Ryan Phillips
Leave
Carter Bailey
Why don't they just make an unabridged version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, that would be just as epic as GoT and last them years and years more.
Sure, because it is America every character would have to played by Lucy Lu or Bai Ling (as America doesn't have any other orientel actors) so it would cost a fortune in CGI, but it would be more than pay for itself from international sales.
Logan Flores
I will not watch a single one.
John Ross
You will, like all the attention whores that hatepost about GOT in this board.
Evan Sanchez
HBO used to make quality entertainment. It has been shit for at least 10 years now and doesn't look like it is coming back.
Asher Bell
adapt malazan instead
Anthony Murphy
hes dead dude. this show travel back in time and killed him.
Leo Harris
I hope they run Mon Wed Fri Sat so never have to wait more than 48 hours for a GoT episode.
Oliver Ramirez
no got faggot fan, you are deluded. you really are the worst fanbase.
Nathan Foster
Just make a Casterly Rock series with a teenage Jaime and Cersei hiding from guards and fucking in hidden rooms in the castle.
Liam Rivera
the problem is both these franchises are shoved in our faces. i wouldnt give a fuck if they were not rammed down our throats all the time and stupid fucking nerds (which is everyone these days) didnt scoff at you for not watching their shitty favs.
Jason Jenkins
wait, hold on, with all the time travel and shit, will GOT become the new doctor who

Wyatt Sullivan
The best spinoff would have been The Adventures of Arya and The Hound.
Set between when she gets that pony and his "death". Just riding around wartorn Westeros, eating chickens, meeting people, helping people, killing King Joff's men, having adventures, The Hound teaching Arya how to survive.
