re: I'm a weak man, I caved and re-watched Game of Thrones. Where it went off the rails...

rumor is GRRM told them how the story ends with Bran on the throne but it was up to D&D to get there.

The reason I find this hard to believe is that Bran being made king in the show did not seem in any way planned or set up. Not even in the final couple episodes or even the finale until the final scene.

Had he told them that was the end, they surely would have made him more of an emphasis towards the end. I’m not sure when this supposedly would’ve happened but I guess it would’ve had to have happened after they did an entire season without that character on the show at all

He really feels like a left over puzzle piece that they were like “oh yeah he could work I guess. Whatever, let’s go buy markers for our Star Wars story boards”
