Not everyone found Season 8 of Game of Thrones to be enjoyable. The fan base was split in half after the season finale. While one was happy with the conclusion, the other insisted on a remake. Some theorized the lack of source material due to George R. R. Martin’s slow writing speed. Meanwhile, others pointed the finger at the showrunners for sparking curiosity in a Star Wars feature picture trilogy with Disney’s Lucasfilm. And a lot of fans are still scarred by that experience.
Game of Thrones fans warn Hideo Kojima
Avid fans of video games are quite familiar with the name, Hideo Kojima. Kojima is the developer behind the famous Metal Gear Solid video games, and his game recently got greenlit for a live-action adaptation. He recently met up with Game of Thrones showrunner D.B.Weiss, and fans are warning him not to pick him for his project, recalling their own experience with the HBO epic. Some of them wrote on Twitter (X):
Do not do 8 seasons with that man.
