I'm hard pressed to see how they could do better than they already have. But power to them.
ReplyDeleteOoo interesting choice
ReplyDeleteGRRM just posted this about Marshall directing:
ReplyDelete"For those of you who have been living under a rock for the past ten years or so, Marshall is the director of CENTURION, of DOG SOLDIERS, and -- especially -- of THE DESCENT, which I think may well be the best horror film of the past twenty years or so. (Do NOT confuse it with the sequel, a much weaker film). GAME OF THRONES will be his first foray into television.And my comment? That sound you hear is a high-pitched squeal of delight. I love Marshall's work, in case you couldn't tell. And what makes this especially exciting is that the episode he'll be directing is... mine. Yes. He's going to directing episode nine, "Blackwater." The Battle of the Blackwater.I still don't how the hell we can possibly afford to do half of what I put into that script, but if anyone can pull off my budget-busting battle, it's Marshall. "
Too funny...GRRM squealed!!!!
Not sure what to make of it as I am not a big horror fan but GRRM seen excited so he must be good.
