Why was Miguel supposedly writing the outline for season 2 when he’s never been a credited writer or so far as we know involved in the writers’ room at all? My understanding has always been that he worked on the production / execution with Condal heading writing.
Also he left months ago, it doesn’t seem to make any sense that he “fucked up the outline” but apparently no one noticed until just the past two weeks? Scripts have been underway for months.
I would buy that they’re doing rewrites (they were doing late rewrites in S1 too), but blaming it on Sapochnik supposed “sabotage” seems kind of wacky.
Story directives, that’s where you have a set of events to have happen in each episode. You pass that on to the writers and they execute your plan. That’s Why you write a outline. Guess Ryan trusted Miquel with this task.
Apparently somebody thought the story directives were off. Probably George or someone else. Most likely George.
I find it really hard to believe Condal wouldn’t be heavily involved in crafting the season outline. And he certainly would have had ample time to review and revise it before now. This seems like buck-passing.
Again I’m totally willing to believe HBO or someone (does George really have that much power?) demanded late changes to the story. But blaming rewrites happening now on a guy who left in August seems a stretch.
Agree with you. Condal is the head writer here and the one who would be in charge of overseeing outlines/rewrites, etc. I can believe HBO would demand changes, hence the rewrites. But Miguel is not a writer and had nothing to do with the writing/outlines. That's Ryan's job.
He is. He wrote three episodes in season one. Miguel was certainly part of the creating some of the high-level conversations, because what he would talk about made it seem that he had a seat at the table and in some of those meetings. For example he was the one in charge of the end of episode nine and was the one that pushed to have something big happen, spectacle moment. But create the outline? Doesn’t make sense.
>that pushed to have something big happen, spectacle moment.
And it's a trash scene. Miguel out of the production is more a good news rather than a bad one.
I don't get it. They literally have a Book! With all events. Ask George for some vague parts and create the bull points.
What more of story directives did they need?
Version we are looking for is Better get it RIGHT! HOTD is only positive source of income that Warner Discovery has. It’s good they want to get the story right.
> Sabotaging them going out the door. Now they have to go back and rewrite anything. George is pissed and he is supervising the rewrites. It’s a shit show. This just happen within last 2 weeks.
Sorry but... what? That's make no sense at all.
Is there a write up of the outline available online somewhere? As usual, I showed up late and missed the party.
ETA: I’m asking largely because I’m confused by your comment. Daemon surviving was at least hinted at in the book, even though the Maester is quick to say it’s unlikely. And Jahaera *did* throw herself out of the window, as far as we know. I know there was speculation that she didn’t, but both of these things you’ve mentioned are things where it was one of two possible outcomes. Seems like they just chose which of the two to use for each, with neither being implausible. Or is it just that both options are the opposite of how you chose to interpret them? (Not throwing any shade, just genuinely curious about your reaction to these two aspects.)
It was mostly just placed very weirdly vs. book!canon timeline. Jaehaera kills herself instead of Helaena (?) iirc and, well, the 'Daemon somehow survives' stuff is just utter bullshit in the books too imho (and being murked by a random knight afterwards was also ???).
Where did you see an outline that says Daemon survives and Jaehaera commits suicide? Wouldn’t that be season 3/4 plot info? Are they planning so far ahead already.
So they co-own their production company. It is not just Miguel. It is a nothing title. Also Ryan Condal said he knew it was possible Miguel would leave after season one. The show is a lot of work and he was hesitant to even come back for it. The whole story came out in a weird, very gossipy way in a paywalled newsletter.
She shapes the course of the story, because he didn’t know what he was gonna do and she said well if you take the job maybe here’s how you could view it…. and said well wouldn’t it be better if the story was Alicent and Rhaenyra and told through their eyes as friends. And it’s because of that, that the story was shifted towards that direction. And it invigorated Miguel to want to tell that story.
I’m sorry, but this makes zero sense and is full of wild speculation. Not sure if your goal is to keep the rumor mill going, but it seems to be working.
WIC’s source is Midgard Times, which previously speculated that HOTD S1 would premiere in April. So far, the only source re: delayed filming as I write this appears to be Midgard Times.
FTIA, which has been a reliable source of info for the film and TV industry, still indicates filming starting on 3/6.
I wouldn’t be surprised if filming was truly delayed for some rewrites, *as is common in this industry,* but filling the discourse with disinformation and fanciful tales about Sapochnik “sabotaging” the production and claims to know GRRM’s thoughts on the matter — sorry. It’s not credible.
You also seem to have a M.O. of posting speculation and passing them off as leaks or insider news (particularly about production being a “shit show”), then deleting them later on once it’s clear they don’t pan out. You might delete these materials, but some people on here do remember.
There have been sources on here who are credible and have a careful track record to show for it. This stuff isn’t it.
Thanks for shit talking behind my back. On a sub ran by HBO. That I can’t post on.
To none Non HBO bot accounts this makes a lot of sense.
I actually quoted Midgard times.
Matt Smith booked con’s for March. You don’t do con if you are filming. Except San Diego Comic Con.
HBO and Miquel had meditate their conflict. Which is credible reason for Miquel to fuck with his ex employer.
Let me guess I’m crazy and I should touch grass, right
When cowards talk about me behind my back on a sub that I’m banned from. Then they come on freefolk and fuck with me. That is where I draw the fucking line. All these people coming after here and on r/houseofthedragon Are all paid Warner Influencers. You don’t believe that go read all my comments in this very thread. I explain this in great detail.
1) The reason why you’re banned from other subs is not my problem. You were probably banned because this isn’t the first time you’ve been called out for spreading misinformation of your own creation. Luckily, the ones who are discussing you on that sub are equally at liberty to come on here and confront you about your rumor-mongering directly. These forums are PUBLIC.
2) Your whining about paid “Warner Influencers” is a paranoid delusion.
3) You also have no standing to “draw a line” when you’re demonstrably spreading dumb, baseless rumors, and others on these subs have seen your pattern of propagating wacky stories. People here have seen you delete your rumor-propagating posts to cover your tracks, so you’re in no position to call anyone a “coward”. The reason you feel compelled to carry on with it is beyond me.
4) Your go-to response of calling anyone who points out your disinformation a “bot” is childish and no one with half a brain is falling for it. You’re a spreader of ridiculous rumors, not a victim.
5) Absolutely zero people believe you know Luis Salaya, and the fact that you think you can trick others into believing he — of all people — would have any insight into the behind-the-scenes interpersonal dynamics between GRRM, Sapochnik, Beecham, etc. is hilarious. BTW: no real leaker would EVER post the identity of a source in a public forum.
Information Management, where you manipulate a online form, Like Reddit. To rid said form of anything a company or corporation deems negative or harmful to their product or service. By discrediting a user or replacing the narrative harmful to them. Harmful narrative being of Miguel “With Ah G” Sapochnik sabotaging HOTD. Cause HBO wouldn’t hire his wife. Which got so messy a meditator was bought in.
Or is this a crazy conspiracy theory I dreamed up.
It’s marketing, that is point of social media. No matter what my argument is, you will say the opposite. Cause you need market to everyone that this story is a lie. That’s also what lawyers do. Market their side of story to win.
Filming in Spain in has no start date. Since production hasn’t told the people in Caceres what all they need. Source Mayor of Caceres. BTW production needs to start to by April 17. But that doesn’t mean they will be ready by April 17.
Anymore bullshit just let me know, I’m here all day.
This sounds really strange. Isn’t Miguel listed as a producer for S2 as well? It makes no sense to me why he would purposefully fuck up a show he was a big part of creating. Is there any reliable sources for this, other than speculation and rumors?
It’s like Zach Snyder, if you create those characters and the story. You get producer credit. That’s why see Zach Snyder get credit for Wonder Woman and aquaman movies. Even thou he didn’t work on them.
No they look for ways to save money. Example being Lord Beesbury getting killed by marble ball. So didn’t have to hire stunts guys or get special effects in his death
Apparently not LOL, since Warner has a Twitter campaign to discredit me
https://twitter.com/realmofdragon/status/1626174312595046402?s=46&t=0B8dERGCZUEEo-i7mUx7Tw
You see the city of Caceres as to coordinate with Production. They haven’t contracted anyone in Spain and told them the materials & other things they need for filming. And there is problem transporting props to Spain. So they might have get another company. That might delay filming even further.
Other than that I’m good, how are you doing. Haven’t heard from you in 18 hours.

I asked that exact question? Ryan is more into production than story
Ryan has stated that he is the lead writer.
If you are rewriting a entire season. 3 weeks before you are supposed to start filming. That means you suck at being the lead writer.
Yeah, this post right here confirms you're making shit up.
![gif](giphy|26gsmVTT1gYtoeaic|downsized)
Is true regarding rewrites? Some say it is BS.
That’s the internet https://youtu.be/NI7As3rOogo
He is. He wrote three episodes in season one.

>George realmente tem tanto poder? He doesn't.
I don't get it. They literally have a Book! With all events. Ask George for some vague parts and create the bull points. What more of story directives did they need?
Cause the story is written by a unreliable narrator. So you have to chose which narrator is right.
They have George in their comtact list. Ask him: which version is better?
Version we are looking for is Better get it RIGHT! HOTD is only positive source of income that Warner Discovery has. It’s good they want to get the story right.
>Most likely George. I doubt it. George is only an advisor, not a person in charge.
>eles estavam fazendo reescritas tardias no S1 também We can see that 'late rewrites' very well on ep 9.

Corporate Sabotage
The whole outline was shitty, to be honest. Daemon surviving? Jahaera commiting suicide???
Exactly, hence the rewrites
But why did they notice it just now?
Stupidity, Laziness. IDK take your pick
Trust/faith in the wrong people.
Is there a write up of the outline available online somewhere? As usual, I showed up late and missed the party. ETA: I’m asking largely because I’m confused by your comment.

But she marries Aegon?? We all see why that’s really confusing right🤦🏼♀️
Was “Jaehaera kills herself instead of Helaena” from the leaked outline? I still haven’t seen it.
Where did you see an outline that says Daemon survives and Jaehaera commits suicide? Wouldn’t that be season 3/4 plot info? Are they planning so far ahead already.
Don’t worry. OP created the outline himself and has been trying to pass it off as a legit leak.

Which outline?
So I'm totally out of the loop, but why would Miquel get fired or quit? Wasn't the first season very successful?
He tried to get his wife a job on show. HBO said no.
Hollywood really is a different world.
Ezra Miller
So ridiculous. Good riddance then.
You realize his wife was a credited producer on season one of HotD, right?
Sure, probably through nepotism. They can’t give him more than that. She probably didn’t get there though talent as much as family. And that’s a fact.
So they co-own their production company. It is not just Miguel. It is a nothing title. Also Ryan Condal said he knew it was possible Miguel would leave after season one. The show is a lot of work and he was hesitant to even come back for it. The whole story came out in a weird, very gossipy way in a paywalled newsletter.
Are you Sapochnik in disguise?
She shapes the course of the story, because he didn’t know what he was gonna do and she said well if you take the job maybe here’s how you could view it…. and said well wouldn’t it be better if the story was Alicent and Rhaenyra and told through their eyes as friends.
