    Heard from the guy at the Hollywood Reporter. There are currently five projects in various stages of production and they're all prequels. Any or all of them can be dropped at the pre-production phase. The only subject that's off the table is content associated with Robert's Rebellion. Not sure if that's Martin's call or the subject matter will be too costly.

    You may have heard that the final six GoT episodes won't air until at least winter (Jan-May) of 2019. If a new prequel is created, it won't air until the original series has ended.

    We have to wait until '19 to find out what happens now that the Scottish are south of The Wall?

    The Scottish walkers can be defeated by fighting them with yards of ale and plates of haggis. They get distracted.

    Frustrated HBO will make Game of Thrones fans wait until 2019 for final season

    Sam Machkovech - ARS TECHNICA




    Last month, HBO offered a sneak peek at series, specials, and films to expect from the cable network in 2018. But its new-year teaser reel had one obvious omission: any declaration about the future of Game of Thrones, other than a brief shot of a few series characters. It turns out that fans were right to raise their eyebrows at this reel.

    HBO issued a Thursday announcement to confirm that Game of Thrones' eighth—and final—season will debut in "2019." The network didn't hint at either a month or release window. Instead, it confirmed that the season will contain six episodes and offered a list of writers and directors on board, including longtime TV series contributors David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. Otherwise, the announcement contained nothing in the way of plot or character hints, let alone a trailer. The show's official Twitter feed simply told fans, "Send a raven."

    The result: GoT will have its first full year off the airwaves since its 2011 debut. HBO hasn't yet announced firmer plans about an oft-rumored GoT prequel series—and, geez, there are five series possibly in the works—so it's unclear whether fans will have to wait similar amounts of time for any other TV series to kick off. Meanwhile, George R.R. Martin remains coy about whether his long-awaited book follow-up, The Winds of Winter, could arrive before HBO's final season starts.

    Considering the official divergence in plot and narrative between the book and TV series, however, it could make more sense for HBO to take its bow first and let Martin's vision conclude with fewer distractions. (Martin has teased a second unreleased book, A Dream of Spring, as the print series' finale, so either way, HBO will almost certainly wrap its full-series vision first.)

    HBO has hinted at plans for massive and epic episodes to wrap the series, which means the full-scale military bombast of season seven will likely be topped in 2019.

    I find the delay infuriating. Those six episodes better be five hours each

    And if they're already filmed...shame on production.

    I hate the way the last season felt rushed and with this next season being even shorter and the end of the series coming, I have a feeling it will feel even more forced and rushed.

    Agreed. The show moved at a glacial pace in some seasons, which was fine. They were unraveling a huge story with lots of characters.

    They decided on an end point and that's usually a bonus for writer/producers to finish the story on their own terms. It wasn't a Deadwood situation.

    Last season felt like a summary where they needed to move pieces on the board and then eliminate others. Some good episodes, but when you change the pacing like that it feels like someone else is writing it.

    Exactly, in earlier seasons it would take 4 episodes just to cross a river and now they can go from Winterhaven to Dragonstone to Castle Black to way north of the wall in one episode

    I'm okay with the fast travel as long as they don't imply it was an overnight trip. Cough cough... Gendry running to Wall, getting message to Dragonstone, Dragon flying back... cough, cough.

    It seemed to take Dany 25 years to make it across the Narrow Sea, so conversely we could use less of that I guess
