The Official Game of Thrones [A Song of Ice and Fire] Thread (includes spoilers)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Bunch of good potential here... Robert's Rebellion seems most obvious. Blackfyre Rebellion would be awesome.
 
Robert's Rebellion is definitely the most likely, I think, as it would involve a lot of characters we already know, albeit with different actors portraying them.

There's a lot of great content, though. As Chris said, Dunk and Egg would be awesome as well, and there's already a little source material for that.
 
I think the events leading up to the building of the wall could make for a great series.

The only issue with going in the direction of Robert's Rebellion is that the aftermath/result already has been shown, including the birth of Jon Snow. We know Stannis gets in a siege, that he holds out, that Aerys has the Starks burned alive in their armor...and it's not just in a book, but actually on a show already where that has been disclosed.

I'd really prefer for them to do something where the show/book historical record is vague enough that we can be surprised by much of what happens.

"An inter-dimensional rift opens up, merging Westeros with Middle Earth. Soon the Armies of Gondor swarm into the North. Boromir leads his forces against Warden of the North Eddard Stark in a fight to the death! It is Game of Thrones vs. Lord of the Rings!"

Well, we knew what was going to happen in each of the first five seasons of Game of Thrones, but it didn't necessarily hurt the enjoyment. I guess season five kind of hurt at times, but that wasn't the book's fault.
 
Rob's Rebellion seems to be the most mainstream topic. The story contains characters we are familiar with. I know that Sean Bean and Mark Addy would likely have to be replaced by younger counterparts but i bet Nikolai could still be in it. You also get to feature arguably one of Westeros' most sadistic rulers in Aerys. Watching him become The Mad King would be dastardly compelling TV.

Valyria has me intrigued too but it would definitely be a much more fantasy-based series, which i am not sure HBO is comfortable with.

I think it is different where a show is "spoiled" by another show rather than by a book. But that's really a personal preference. I'd just thought Season 6 was fun as hell not knowing where things were going, and would like to see something less well fleshed out that Robert's Rebellion would be. Blackfire Rebellion, maybe, or even the idea mentioned above about the original Bran the Builder, the building of the Wall, etc.. You'd have the First Men, the Children, etc....

Which Sean Bean dies first?

Is that interdimensional rift opened by a certain NASA Flight Director...?

All the Sean Beans.

Unless the Cavs win the title again. The reverse karma means all the Sean Beans live.
 
Seems especially long because we're used to show starting by now. Thrones season is in the air.
