Now that we officially know that GRRM isn't going to finish TWOW before the tv series airs the content, is anyone actually going to care about the books?

I honestly don't think he has it in him to finish the series.

I'm just treating them as two separate things at this point with the TV show being an alternate take on some events.

Well not me.

Who gives a fuck about this fat asshole and his terrible genre fiction?

Fucking hell, off yourself.

>>7580323
After all the main plot events are spoiled by the series, which they will be, I'd imagine there's few people who are going to care when and if GRRM releases the final book 10+ years from now. There's no way to not get them spoiled before he releases the final book unless you stay off the internet for a decade
>>
Why would it actually matter? If you read the books and care that much then just don't watch the show. Just because something happens 'before' doesn't magically ruin the contents of the book.

Go talk this shit to /tv/. Don't come to the literature board to discuss not reading, that's idiotic.
>2
Reading for plot is for plebs, there is a limited number of interactions and if you really read enough you'd get used to all of them quick enough.

Yeah, because people no longer but Harry Potter books, they don't keep printing them a decade after it was finished.

not literature, off-topic thread.

It actually gladdens me to see threads like this. You've literally polluted your mind with this shit to the point where you bother going on the internet & posting about it. Those pleb husks fill up room in your brain & not mine & I'm winning. Thank you anon. I'd tell you to go take a long hard look in a mirror, but I want you to stay right. Where. You. Are.
>>
maybe if you stopped reading books for plot it would help

It's quite literally not literature though. We're not being pedantic or autistic. Your post is off topic and should be treated as such.

This is not GoT. GoT is solely plot driven with poor prose and no artistic or philosophical themes.

Moral Nihilism/Relativism
Philosophy Honour
Philosophy of Family

Something can be mediocre and still have themes lad

I don't like GoT, but you're a pleb talking out your ass

I'll agree with the poor prose, but at least the politics in the story have some literary credibility. Imo.
