I hope its done right holohuze,

You familiar with how HBO and Terrence Winter handled Boardwalk Empire's final season it was very ugly. Borderline unwatchable.

I made a big mistake with the final season there and regret going into it blind and getting let down after let down with forced plots, cheapened plots, cheapened characters, abrupt and ugly conclusions, and just ugly editing and pacing compared to the 5 star show that the first 3 seasons were.

HBO and Winter had similar discussions that D&D are having, and disagreeing low key, so I am worried about a bumblefuck fizzle like so many other HBO series have had happen.

While I only vaguely recall Boardwalk's last season, I understand your concern perfectly. Only wanted to point out the possibility of fresh source material for showrunners. Whether its 7 seasons or 8, my biggest concern is showrunners inventing story.

I could probably live with that, but would still prefer Sandor.

Him and Arya's roadtrip through the Riverlands was probably my #1 favorite thing on the show. The first time I saw the scene where they finally reached the Eyrie, only to find out Lysa was dead.... ROFL. Between the look on his face and Arya laughing her ass off...

Priceless. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The hound is played by one of the best actors I've ever seen. The scene in the inn, with the chickens....

Lol. The only cinematic scene i've enjoyed more was Russell Crowe in gladiator saying, "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius.... Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife, and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."

Well, actually, there's the scene between Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in Heat, where they're sitting at the diner:

lol me too, so many quotable moments in that scene. I would rewatch it now but I already played the fuck out of it months ago.

In the vein of what Patriam1066 said, hes a natural character actor. For someone who doesn't have much experience, given the performances hes turned in, should be able to find continued character acting work I would think.

This is where I am hoping D&D's fanfiction works the magic, and brings the hound back in fuller capacity. In the books he's sidelined indefinitely. If they make this happen I'll forgive the rest.

I'd watch anything Rory McCann is in, forever.

Wait a sec... (BEWARE, possible season 6 spoilers ahead)
 
So I just read this article about GoT season 6.
Quote:
...when the first casting calls for GoT Season 6 were announced, these notices included a part referred to simply as "Priest," who's described as, "a no-nonsense rural priest who ministers to the poor of the countryside." The popular assumption is that this priest is Septon Meribald — and if his small part is being included, then it's probably to set up Sandor's "resurrection." The final hint came last month, when GoT fan site Watchers On The Wall reported that McCann had been spotted in Belfast, where filming for Season 6 is currently underway and that he was staying in the same hotel as all of his former GoT cast mates.

^^if someone else already posted this info, sorry about that. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
