But the series is in the news all over again as HBO gears up to launch the highly anticipated prequel spinoff, \u201cHouse of the Dragon\u201d later this year.<\/p>\n<p>Diehard \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d fans were shocked and disgusted when Daenerys Targaryen turned evil and torched King\u2019s Landing with the assistance of her dragon during season 8. Ultimately, her nephew turned lover Jon Snow killed Dany and fled back to The Wall. But cast member Peter Dinklage, who played Tyrion Lannister, said the whole sequence of events were inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know a lot of people were supposedly surprised by the ending, but if you paid attention, the clues were there,\u201d Dinklage <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/arts-entertainment\/tv\/news\/peter-dinklage-game-of-thrones-finale-b1988063.html\">told<\/a> The Independent. \u201cWe told you not to name your dog Khaleesi.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The actor had some advice for prequel creators too, cautioning them not to mimic the original series too closely.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you try to recreate it, that feels like a money grab,\u201d Dinklage said. \u201cWith a lot of sequels, the reason for them is that the first one made a lot of money, which is why they aren\u2019t as strong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Previously, the \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d alum defended the creators\u2019 decision to melt the iron throne, calling the scene one of his favorites from the whole project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of my favorite moments was when the dragon burned the throne because it sort of just killed that whole conversation, which is really irreverent and kind of brilliant on behalf of the show\u2019s creators: \u2018Shut up, it\u2019s not about [who sits on the throne],\u2019\u201d Dinklage said during an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/12\/22\/movies\/peter-dinklage-cyrano.html\">interview<\/a> with The New York Times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey constantly did that, where you thought one thing and they delivered another. Everybody had their own stories going on while watching that show, but nobody\u2019s was as good as what the show delivered, I think.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During the same conversation, the actor chastised fans who were still complaining about how \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d ended.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Fans] wanted the pretty white people to ride off into the sunset together. By the way, it\u2019s fiction. There\u2019s dragons in it. Move on,\u201d the 52-year-old actor said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, \u201cGame of Thrones\u201d author George R.R. Martin had some positive things to say about \u201cHouse of the Dragon\u201d after screening an early copy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve seen a rough cut of the first episode. And loved it. It\u2019s dark, it\u2019s powerful, it\u2019s visceral\u2026 just the way I like my epic fantasy,\u201d the fantasy author wrote on his <a href=\"https:\/\/georgerrmartin.com\/notablog\/2021\/12\/29\/most-anticipated\/\">blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRyan [J Condal] and Miguel [Sapochnik] have done an amazing job, and the cast\u2026 just as with \u2018Game of Thrones,\u2019 most viewers will only have heard of a few of the actors, but I think you are going to fall in love with a lot of them. (Only to have your heart broken later when\u2026 but no, that would be telling).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continued, expressing support for the story that\u2019s set 200 years before the action of the original series. \u201cI think the Targaryens are in very good hands,\u201d Martin concluded.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
