HBO gave Dumb and Dumber an unlimited budget and unlimited seasons because the show was the biggest success they had ever had and Dumb and Dumber were like: nah, let’s finish this shit and move on to star wars.
As a result of this action, star wars dropped Dumb and Dumber from their deal and their careers were destroyed. I have seen their names pop up in writing credits on a few projects since GoT ended, but it’s never something that is mentioned or used to promote the movie or show they are working on. Hollywood knows to keep these losers’ names out of the spotlight.
I cannot imagine the entitlement of these two, to have pretty much won the Hollywood game to the point that they had unlimited budget, unlimited seasons and episodes to continue making the most popular tv show in the world and they thought they were too good for it.
And everytime I heard people blame George for them running out of material I remind them that these two fucks skipped and ENTIRE BOOK in the ASOIAF series because they thought it was boring.
