Playing Thrones almost turned on a massive leap of the time that could change everything

There are dozens of key points in the history of “ice and fire”, which, if they went in another way, could put the characters in completely different ways. What if Rob Stark followed his original wedding plans? What if the Bran listened to the mother and did not go climbing? What if the Ned Stark has found the time to hear a deserter from the night watch, which claimed that the white walkers were a real business? These are all hypothetics that could change the “game of thrones” dramatically, but one huge change, which is the author George R. Martin, really believed, was sometimes jumping in the middle of the main moment of his epic history.

Among all deceptions, deaths and dragons, Martin played with the idea of ​​giving his heroes to breathe between “storms of swords” and “Holiday for crows”, third and fourth novels in Martin Series of books “Game of Thrones”Jumping forward five years on a temporary scale. At this point, Obin Martel died, John Snov was now Lord Night Commander, Johr was expelled by Denneris, Petira Balish killed Fox Arrin, and Ary Stark made his way into Bravos to find out about Vasar’s ways. It is a lot to leave the clutter for a decade and the reasoning behind it made sense, and potentially making things a little more complicated.

Saying with Gizmodo Over time, George R. Martin backed his five -year idea of ​​his brief battle after realizing that he realized that during his very active history, where the heroes were killed and some of the heroes who were in this were not old. “So you finish the book, and you had a huge number of events they have passed in a short time, and an eight-year-old child for eight years.”

It was here that Martin played with the idea of ​​jumping time, which made it like “Stark’s Children”, John Sno and Denneris, so that everyone grows and are a suitable age for even tougher events that ahead of them. The problem was that when they grow, other adult characters remained twisted their fingers (either Littlefingers) to return to action. For example, five years could work in Arya, who went to Bravos only at 12 years old, which allowed her to become a deadly murder car until she is 17 years old. Meanwhile, Sergei, according to GRRM, would go through six different hands, all of them would come with their own bits that would be sent to Flashbacks. It just made things much harder than it was necessary, and would make the book adaptation just sad places.

Of course, there are arguments that need to be done for a jump that works in some areas, but if it switched to the show, we might face the same question that presented itself “Dragon’s house” when the show has reworked some of their key characters. Some, if not all bright children – after at least three four seasons – will be completely converted, which makes the transition to the main point in the storyline. Similar Rob Stark (Richard Medden), Theon Greyjoy (Alfa Alf) and John Snov (Keith Harrington) are fully remained as they are, but similar to Ary (Messi Williams), Sans (Sophie Turner) and Brian (Isaac Hampsted) would be all over There were, and heroes who have characters who have characters who have characters who have characters who have characters who have heroes who have heroes who were in heroes. For some time, completely different people have been viewed.

Speaking of John, it would also be even more on the wall, and he took the title of Lord commander and seemingly left nothing really. It would also make his betrayal from other night clock members. So far we need to be just grateful that Martin adhered to the plan and just gave the young people in “Songs about ice and Fire” some of the hardest childhood in the literature that became one of the Top TV shows last decade.
