Question: if there's a Robert's rebellion spinoff, which characters from the current series younger versions could we expect? hmmm Robert, Ned, Jaime, Tywin, Varys, Pycelle, Stannis, Cersei... Cat, for example, was like alive and present, but didn't actually do anything, so they might not even bother including people like that.

But then again if they included a Jaime, it would be weird not to include cersei considering their relationship. And I guess they would have to include tyrion too?

I don't need characters for the sake of having characters.

4 spinoffs would be a bit fucking insane. I'm hoping for an anthology though. I agree, the anthology seems like the best bet for a GoT spinoff.

I don't want a sequel series...not yet anyway. I think it's safe to say at least the Conquest is almost a sure thing. The Rebellion is also a strong possibility. I don't know if HBO is willing to go back to like Valyria. They probably want to kind of do more of the same, so more wars, scheming, big battles, etc etc. Besides, the Doom just kind of randomly happened one day, so idk how they could make a show out of that. I think The Doom could make for a great stand-alone episode in a season about the early Targaryens/Aegon's Conquest. It could work as an extended flashback/origin story. But I agree that making a whole season out of it (let alone an entire series) is fruitless. The idea of a series centered on Robert's Rebellion depresses me. I feel like I've already seen this story 300,000,000,000,000 times and that's just from listening to characters talking about it

I think it'd be an anthology. I can't see HBO airing four Game of Thrones shows concurrently. But I also can't see them only airing them one by one. The fourth show wouldn't be one for like a decade! And I do not have that kind of time lol.

It could a prologue to the conquest's first episode, for example, but yeah, there's only so much they can do with a city blowing up lol. And yeah, I don't want RR either, but i feel like it's inevitable.

I don't need characters for the sake of having characters. I see. Honestly I don't care that much for a spinoff in general. I haven't read any of the dunk and egg books and I don't ever plan to. But I did like the princess and the queen and a lot of the targaryen shit in a world of ice and fire. But I think a robert's rebellion miniseries is probably the most likely in terms of spinoff because they could include a lot of in-series characters for that. And haha yeah I don't know how it just slipped my mind that cersei would have to be included considering she married Robert lol

I don't need characters for the sake of having characters. If they did Robert's Rebellion, they would probably depict Littlefinger's origin as well, which means that they would absolutely have to include young Cat and young Lysa. His obession with Cat is an important aspect of his character. Petyr's duel with Brandon, and Catelyn begging Brandon to spare his life, those are important scenes that shaped Littlefinger into the man we see in Game of Thrones. Furthermore, Catelyn marrying Ned and Lysa marrying Jon Arryn to secure the alliance with House Tully, that's a pretty essential aspect of Robert's Rebellion, I don't see them leaving it out.

They might add in the LF origin story just to buildup to his actions later on. I don't even wanna see the Rebellion anymore. I mean, I'll watch it if they make it, obviously, but that's low down on my list of things I'd want them to make. But more Ned, Cersei, and Tywin is a good thing.

Am I the only one that is not really excited about GOT spinoffs/prequels/sequels? I don't know, I understand the appeal that could have for some people, but the story I love and I am invested is ASOIAF and that ends the day the episode 806 airs. I have spent many years in this universe, growing with the characters, being happy and sad with them... And I'm ready to move on after the show ends. No I pretty much feel exactly the same way. I honestly haven't checked out any of the spinoffs for other things I love either. Harry Potter was basically my childhood but I haven't watched fantastic beasts or read cursed child and have no intentions to. That being said, since I pretty much end up watching most HBO series, its possible that this time I might watch a spinoff or whatever. But I don't have any genuine investment or excitement for it. I'm not gonna be a guaranteed viewer just because I'm a ASOIAF/GOT fan lol

I mean, I'll totally watch anything they put out, and I'll probably stick around here and talk about it if anyone else does. But idk if I'll be as invested in it as I am in GoT. Since we already know how every prequel ends, I'm not sure if I'll be as compelled to speculate and all that, since there's no mystery left lol.

Anything but Robert's Robellion. We already know the plot of it and it's pointless to rehash it what the show already spoiled.
To be honest, i prefer them to do a spin-off elsewhere in Essos like Asshai, Old Ghis, Valyria, and Yi Ti. Kinda like what Star Wars spin-offs has already been doing.

If they are going to do anything, Aegon's Conquest would introduce us to people we've read about but are new in many ways. They already have the dragon technology down, which will help with production costs, and most of the locations are already familiar to casual or show only viewers.
I would love to see the building of the Wall and Winterfell, but my heart's desire would be for Valyria and the mysteries lost in the doom. Perhaps set in the days leading up to the devastation and the Targeryan permanent move to Dragonstone.

Glad I'm not the only one uninterested in a Robert's Rebellion show. Still maintain Dunk and Egg is the best choice. They wouldn't have to worry about huge battles or CGI dragons either.
