I wouldn't be shocked if in the actual books Drogon was the one that would burn the leaders to a crisp. Possibly they just did it with Dany because she's been such a weak character for a long time now and its cheaper than doing all the dragon CG."Probably not" unless I can't write fast enough.
Drogon burning them all would have a been a lot cooler than the retarded scene we got.I wouldn't be shocked if in the actual books Drogon was the one that would burn the leaders to a crisp.

I think most show watchers have been lead to think Dany is for the most part immune to fire. Hell her hair doesn't even burn in the show but it does in the source.
I would hope he writes the story true to how he wants, regardless of the differences in the show. That said, how many more books are there supposed to be? Only 2? 3? I'm not holding my breath.IF, and its a big IF GRMM manages to spew out the books to finish - I bet he is going to screw over HBO by totally going different directions just because - regardless of the fact that HE game them major points / major character happenings and the end destinations of all those characters and the completed story... and hell maybe even all his notes on things to come. But I think he will do it "as a gift to the dedicated book crowd" if he can manage to get something out anytime...
In the show its a rehash of the end of S1 and gets her the followers who are in awe of her and worship her, the dragon burning route would get her the same followers most likely, but in a fear and oppression kind of following.Drogon burning them all would have a been a lot cooler than the retarded scene we got.
Of course it won't be an easy endeavor. She's not going to ultimately fail though as far as human conflict. Who knows what wrenches the white walkers throw into any theory but putting that aside she is the most powerful person in control of the most powerful army plus 3 dragons. She's also apparently very hungry to rule everyone.On the After the Thrones show they did bring up a good point that Dany is good at speeches and riling up a crowd but rarely can she execute her ambition quite as cleanly. Just because the Dothraki are now bowing to her doesn't mean she'll have an easy time juggling management of the Dothraki, management of Mareen and laying siege to Westeros.
Except it clearly is based on the books, numerous times its been shown people who know a great deal about magic can not cast it (Maesters). In addition, even people that can cast magic, not all can do all spells. (For example) You have an entire religious order who are clearly comfortable with burning people alive attempting to complete the spell, and were never able to execute it.And not so much that whole "your a wizard now, dany" explanation that Lithose gave. great fan fic but not actual basis from the books.
Can she call on him when she needs help? It was kinda implied that there's a link between the two with how he came during the Sons of the Harpy attack, but I was never clear on whether she called him or he just happened to show up.Drogon burning them all would have a been a lot cooler than the retarded scene we got.
In the books, there is a bit more detail; he was drawn by the blood in the arena. A boar I think was the catalyst, he came down for a snack.Can she call on him when she needs help?

I don't see how that screws over HBO. Most show watchers don't really give a shit about the books.IF, and its a big IF GRMM manages to spew out the books to finish - I bet he is going to screw over HBO by totally going different directions just because - regardless of the fact that HE game them major points / major character happenings and the end destinations of all those characters and the completed story... and hell maybe even all his notes on things to come.

We can discuss that in 2050 when the last book is released if we are still alive.IF, and its a big IF GRMM manages to spew out the books to finish - I bet he is going to screw over HBO by totally going different directions just because - regardless of the fact that HE game them major points / major character happenings and the end destinations of all those characters and the completed story... and hell maybe even all his notes on things to come.

Sorry to disappoint, but I don't think HBO is planning to show pegging in GoT.I just want to see Brienne and Tormund in an intense anal scene
Such an optimistWe can discuss that in 2050 when the last book is released if we are still alive.
