The movie was greenlit fairly quickly in 2014 with a planned release for 2018 that I've since learned has now been delayed to 2019. For a good idea of what major western animated films' production schedules can be like, consider that director Pete Docter was splitting time between work on Wall-E and Monster's Inc.…

This is why I've thoroughly planned out five separate versions of the DA universe with different lineups of Warden, Hawke and Inquisitor. Dorian may be committed to one Inquisitor, just like Leliana is to two different Wardens, but there are four other Dorians for the picking!

If I remember correctly, Schrab said that he was leaving for an extended period to work on the movie at the end of 2016. It won't be out until 2018, they're still doing scriptwork now, animation production can take quite a while, so that all adds up to me.

I sympathize with where you're coming from, your side of things needs far better representation too, but I don't like seeing these works with strong support from us queer women and representation of us being dismissed as not for us and not of value.

Plus she was great as Katara, which may be a different energy than SG but does even more to show her range.

My thinking is that they mean main villain, which Nebula wasn't and likely won't be in the second one either, although she might've worked better than Ronan.

That's not true, he's left the show but he actually beat his cancer diagnosis and is still alive.

Pycelle is old enough to have known about and been able to warn people about the Wildfire, given his service to Aerys and Tywin, so he needed to be dealt with separately. Also it's just immensely satisfying for him to get his own special death scene, has more impact than it happening to Kevan like it did in the books,…

I believe the number Carice Van Houten gave was around 400, for Mel's age.

It's what happens when you have so many roles to fill and are taking out of the UK's casting pool, like a mostly B-list equivalent with the Harry Potter cast.

Cat's sister Lysa and that one Ironborn who f*cked everything up in season 2 were the parents in The Witch, it was a little weird but they were excellent.

The poison was in the season 2 premiere.

The Brotherhood also tried to kill him in a brutal fight, and look where they are now.

Waititi's earlier films like Boy and Eagle vs. Shark also come highly recommended.

3 was mostly even worse, with one or two episodes that came close to season 1 quality. It also helps that despite the cliffhanger they desperately shove in the middle of the finale, they've ran out of story so hard that the back half of season 3 feels like the ending of the show, even if not an especially good one.

It's been bumbling pointlessly along since season 2, unfortunately.

I definitely agree. Back when it seemed that Bran might be permanently helping from beyond the Wall in tree form, keeping Rickon around seemed like it could be necessary, but now I'm confident Bran will actually have a leadership role when it's all over, whether or not it's specifically Warden of the North.

Me too, and that's why he and Tormund should be saved for right now. Plus Jon and Sansa care about him even if we don't.

I think Rickon getting killed is more/just as likely, it'll give an effective bittersweet edge to their victory given how part of the motivation was rushing to rescue him, and he doesn't really have a role going forward, while Wun Wun and Tormund should last until the final Walker battle, especially since Wun Wun is…

I had honestly expected Bran to be stuck in the tree helping from there for the rest of the story, but now that he's not, I think he might actually have a role in leadership when all is said and done.
