Aye and the recklessness with which they're now breaking the carefully established rules. If it had been as consistently dumb as it is now, then no problem.MattyJ wrote:Tempy wrote:They can't sustain a whole season of marching and battling, it'd be prohibitively expensive and boring as all hell.

There's a rule where stuff doesn't just happen because it suits the story for it to happen. But that was tossed away long ago.Liveinadive wrote:I don't remember there being any established rules on undead dragons.

I'd take these interviews with a big pinch of salt, because they always throw a lot of misdirection into them. Just the other week, Kit Harrington was being asked about which dragon his character was destined to ride, and he waffled on about how he was sure it would be Viserion.
