The time between the notes relates the colour to scenes,
A constant vogue of triumphs dislocate man, so it seems,
And space between the focus shape ascend knowledge of love
As song and chance develop time lost social temperance rules above
Then according to the man who showed his outstretched arm to space,
He turned around and pointed revealing all the human race,
I shook my head and smiled a whisper knowing all about the place
Jon Anderson & Steve Howe (Close to the Edge)
What is honor compared to a woman's love? What is duty against the feel of a newborn son in your arms… or the memory of a brother's smile? Wind and words. Wind and words. We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy.
George R. R. Martin (A Game of Thrones)
The measure of a life is a measure of love and respect,
So hard to earn, so easily burned
In the fullness of time,
A garden to nurture and protect
It's a measure of a life
The treasure of a life is a measure of love and respect,
The way you live, the gifts that you give
In the fullness of time,
It's the only return that you expect

Sono sincero, non me l'aspettavo.
Alla fine è una miniserie, nemmeno particolarmente pubblicizzata, su una serie di racconti minori di Martin.
Evidentemente il pubblico ha ancora voglia di Westeros
e forse non per forza di soli targaryen...
" A Grande Inverno giuriamo la fedeltà della Torre delle Acque Grigie. Cuore e focolare e raccolto a te noi doniamo, mio lord. Le nostre spade, le lance e le frecce sono al tuo comando. Da’ misericordia ai nostri deboli, aiuta i nostri inermi e fa’ giustizia per tutti. Noi mai ti volteremo le spalle. Lo giuro sulla terra e sull’acqua. Lo giuro sul bronzo e sul ferro. Lo giuriamo sul ghiaccio e sul fuoco. "

I hope George keeps writing these. The truth is—and I've pitched this to HBO with a couple very polite eye rolls—I want to do four or five now with Egg as a kid. Then, I want to come back in ten years and do four or five more seasons with Egg the Prince. And with real Dexter [Ansell] and real Peter, just the age that they are at that point. Then, we’ll come back ten years after that and do well, Egg the adult. So, it would be over the course of their lifetime. And mine too.

Io sono sincero. Baaaaaaaaaaasta Targaryen
I Targaryen sono figure centrali anche nelle novelle di Dunk & Egg, quindi AKOTSK non è che si discosti più di tanto da HOTD.

A domanda di un fan, Ira Parker ammette umilmente un errore. Chissà se D&D e Condal sarebbero stati capaci di uguale autocritica: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/knight-of-the-seven-kingdoms-showrunner-mistake-1236501913/
During a Reddit AMA, a fan chided Parker for omitting an exchange in Martin’s novella The Hedge Knight between Dunk (Peter Claffey) and the blacksmith Steely Pate (Youssef Kerkour). In the novella, Dunk is on his way to the joust — and, he assumes, his doom — and is greeted respectfully by several Smallfolk. Confused, Dunk asks the blacksmith, “Why? Who am I to them?” Steely Pate replies, “A knight who remembered his vows.”
“Many readers consider [this] to be the soul and the moral of the entire novella,” chided the fan. “The impact comes not just from the exchange itself, but its careful placement at Dunk’s lowest point, before he realizes any champions have answered his call … It’s an odd choice given how faithful you’ve otherwise been to the novella.”
It’s the sort of gripe many showrunners would have been tempted to ignore. But Parker replied, “Honestly it was a mistake on my part. Not my first, not my last on this show. That scene was in the script at one point, then fell out. I agree that ‘a knight who remembers his vows’ is the soul of this story, but I think that is still very much at the core of the show, even if I stupidly left out this scene … it may not be said explicitly, but Dunk’s actions remain the same.”
At the risk of suggesting Parker might be wrong twice, the cut is understandable as Dunk shows he remembers his vows, so it’s easy to see why the showrunner might have decided against having a character tell the audience that. But given it’s such a standout line and the show is often rather sincere, including it would have worked as well.
One reader praised Parker for his candor: “I have to say I think your honesty is really refreshing.”

Non so per Condal, ma D&D (giusto per fare esempio) hanno sempre ammesso di non essere riusciti a sintetizzare e rendere appetibile la trama di Dorne. Della serie "ci abbiamo provato, non ci siamo riusciti".
Se ne parla in Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon, c'è un capitolo solo su Dorne. In cui si analizzano le motivazioni che hanno spinto D&D e tutta la troupe a provare a inserire comunque Dorne, oltre alle motivazioni che hanno portato ad un risultato non soddisfacente.
