I wonder if he saw the bad reception that the end of Game of Thrones got and just assumed that it was pointless to finish it out. Which will be yet one more reason to hate the showrunners for ruining not just the show, but the books.
I really want some obnoxious interviewer to open up with “So George, do you hate Benioff and Weiss now? If so, how much do you hate them?”
I’m sure he wouldn’t answer, but he’s given enough of an answer on this already. The books are the books and the show is the show. They may have similarities, they may differ. Additionally the show has limitations that the book doesn’t. Actors age. Actors want to move on to new roles. Production has a budget.
I’m sure George has plenty of feedback for Benioff & Weiss. But also, literally everyone has feedback for them. They made some obvious and glaring mistakes.
