Dunk & Egg Take the Big Apple Seems like just a week or so since we got back from worldcon. Nice city, Seattle; I hadn’t been there in ages. And worldcon was a lot of fun. Low key, friendly, a nice mix of old friends and new ones. (And ghosts, too. Too damn many ghosts. Every time I go to a worldcon, […]

Show Runner on Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Upcoming NYCC Appearance Entertainment Weekly has the first exclusive interview with Knight of the Seven Kingdoms show-runner Ira Parker, ahead of the first public preview of the show at New York Comic Con this coming Thursday during the panel, “HBO / HBO Max presents A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms – Journey into Westeros with Dunk and Egg”. In the interview, a few interesting points come up. Front and center is the fact that for thematic reasons, this show will not open with the expansive opening title of its predecessors, but a simple title card before launching right into the story. Parker states to EW: “All decisions came down to Dunk, trying to channel the type of person he is into every aspect of this show, even the title sequence… The title sequences on the original [Game of Thrones] and House of Dragon are big and epic and incredible. Ramin Djawadi’s score is orchestral and large and beautiful. That’s not really Dunk’s M.O. He’s plain and he’s simple and he’s to-the-point. He doesn’t have a lot of flash to him.” Parker then goes on to note that he promised George R.R. Martin that, per EW, “he would never shift to a perspective of anyone in the upper class. Viewers will always stick with Dunk, Egg, and this lower rim of Westeros society: the armorers, the performers, the barmaids, the whores, and the like.” And then he says some rather interesting things about the state of House Targaryen at the time of the tourney at Ashford. More on that below, plus how to watch the panel livestreamed courtesy of Popverse! read on >>>

Ryan Condal Takes a Page from Peter Jackson, Wrap Farewell Gifts Over at the movie prop collecting podcast The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, House of the Dragon co-creator Ryan Condal recently offered a window into the show’s production as the third season filming is hurtling to completion, detailing a tradition he’s started on the show. Speaking with his co-host, David Mandel (Veep, Seinfeld), Condal confirmed that as the series moves into its later seasons, a growing number of principal characters are having their “series wrap”. Filmed sometime after the 13th or 14th based on remarks on a recent auction, Condal noted that in the last ten days or so of filming there were several such “wraps”. In the unforgiving world of Westeros, of course, we all know what that means. Condal, whose passion for props apparently amuses his show’s directors and writers, revealed that he has adopted a tradition inspired by Peter Jackson’s celebrated practice on The Lord of the Rings: sending off each departing actor with a significant prop tied to their character. read on >>>

Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Aiming for January Premiere After the Emmy Awards, where HBO Max shows took a combined 30 wins (including Best Drama Series with The Pitt), CEO Casey Bloys held court with the press such as The Wrap and Deadline) at an after-party and discussed a number of different topic, covering a wide range of their shows. But for fans of the universe HBO is making out of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire, the most interesting details related to the scheduling of both A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and the third season of House of the Dragon. On the former, Bloys revealed that they are planning to premiere A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms this January, so just four months from now. As noted back in May, originally the show had aimed for a 2025 release but was bumped. With this January window apparently locked in, it seems it only just missed the original target. read on >>>

FootBall… Hope springs eternal, they say… especially for football fans. I have not been paying much attention to the NFL during the offseason. Too many other things to do. Both of my teams did pretty well in the draft, though, so surely they would do better than they did last season, which was dismal to say […]

A Busy Month August was a busy month for me and mine, with two conventions on the schedule, a road trip in between, and a couple of guests afterward. Worldcon was in Seattle this year. The Brotherhood Without Banners were there in force, which I always like to see. Caught up with some old fan friends, made some […]
