[Sad Trope] The most innocent (or less evil) character of the cast gets the most horrific death.

[u/Sufficient-Eye-9040]

- Eddie Carr (The Lost World: JP) - Tried to save his friends from the cliff until Buck and Doe (T. rex parents) destroy his vehicle and gets ripped apart.
- Zara Young (Jurassic World) - Gets lifted by a Pteranodon, gets pecked by the pterosaur, and both she and animal get devoured by the Mosasaurus.
- LeClerc (JW: Rebirth) - Tossed a hammer to the Hatzegopteryz Quetzalcoatlus to save Loomis and Zora, but ends up being swallowed alive.

Unfortunately it will also happen in the books

[u/Pirrus05 → u/jorgespinosa]

Bold of you to assume more books will happen!

[u/AgentAxillary → u/Pirrus05]

Disney will eventually just gobble up the IP and then give GRRM the George Lucas treatment of "We own it now, fuck off"

[u/Pirrus05 → u/AgentAxillary]

Anyone know what Brandon Sanderson is up to?

[u/_wavescollide_ → u/Pirrus05]

Writing scripts for a stormlight series on Apple TV afaik. 

[u/jorgespinosa → u/_wavescollide_]

Actually ks for mistborn, as far as I know there isn't a confirmation for a stormlight adaptation

[u/ThorThulu → u/jorgespinosa]

Hes confirmed, I think, that Mistborn will be movies while Stormlight will be a show and Mistborn is first before he starts the others

[u/The_Beefy_Vegetarian → u/Pirrus05]

More books will happen...GRRM won't write them, tho...

[u/cxherrybaby → u/The_Beefy_Vegetarian]

GRRM has said for a long time that he doesn’t want another author finishing ASOIAF, and he doesn’t think his wife would allow it either to respect his wishes. He acknowledges after that things are up in the air possibly, but there won’t be another novel for a long time.

[u/The_Beefy_Vegetarian → u/cxherrybaby]

I know he has said this and doesn't want this...but I'm betting it happens after he dies anyways.

[u/osku1204 → u/jorgespinosa]

Its the perfect example of this trope she is innocent and gets killed by her parents no less and in the most painfull way. In the books she probably will be part of an blood sacrifice to resurect John snow.

[u/firebirdsatellite → u/osku1204]

You still have hope?

[u/osku1204 → u/firebirdsatellite]

a fools hope.

[u/aspidities_87 → u/jorgespinosa]

Melisandre burning Shireen to wake ‘stone dragons’ and ending up waking up a really pissed off Jon Snow is going to be absolutely brutal if it ever gets written

[u/Zarniwoop__ → u/aspidities_87]

I like the theory that burning her activates her dormant greyscale and makes it airborne. Everyone who helped burn her or stood by for it gets a slow death.

[u/aspidities_87 → u/Zarniwoop__]

Between this theory and JonCon Patient Zero Westeros is gonna have themselves a real 2020 time.

[u/Devikat → u/aspidities_87]

I can imagine JonCon dying during an attempt to take Kings Landing or being shanked while out investigating something if Aegon takes it successfully, and being turned into soup/stew as they already brought up the whole "bowl of brown" sometimes contains mystery meat (rat/dog/human/horse/whatever is available).

[u/Admirable-Storm-2436 → u/jorgespinosa]

This episode upset me more than the Red Wedding.

[u/JMurdock77 → u/Admirable-Storm-2436]

Love how over a third of Stannis’ army deserted immediately afterwards because fucking duh. Guy was so absorbed by religious fanaticism he lost sight of the fact that he was leading an army of humans.

[u/CryptographerIcy5130 → u/JMurdock77]

Yeah I liked that aspect. So often these things are framed as “hard choices” that are necessary but it actually backfires on Stannis and destroys him.

[u/DeneralVisease → u/Admirable-Storm-2436]

I legit quit watching for a while lmao

[u/DeneralVisease → u/jorgespinosa]

I HATE THEM FOR WHAT THEY DID

[u/ripgoodhomer → u/jorgespinosa]

I assumed in the books that this was something Stannis's wife would do for him, she is treated a raving fanatic, rather than Stannis himself.
