We’re in a lull, people — filming news on Season 8 has slowed to a crawl as post-production is underway (although we’ve gotten some intriguing tidbits about the prequels), and we’re no closer to a release date than we were weeks or even months ago. And aside from the Emmys on Monday night that resulted in […]
Continue reading →Genuine spoilers have been few and far between this year for the final season of Game of Thrones (curse you, D&D!), so we’ll take what we can get, right? There’s new info today courtesy of a surprising source- a lawsuit involving Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and his former agent. The agreement to resolve the lawsuit reveals an […]
Continue reading →Back in 2006 (how time flies!) author George R.R. Martin decided to change the title of the seventh ASOIAF novel, then named A Time for Wolves, to A Dream of Spring.
