An update on the next Game of Thrones spinoff show, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms , eases concerns about it repeating mistakes made by a different fantasy franchise. House of the Dragon is the only spinoff show to make it to air since Game of Thrones' ending back in 2019, with two seasons under its belt so far , but that will change in 2025.
The Tales of Dunk and Egg are, like The Hobbit, much shorter, breezier reads than the vast tomes they are related to. Related Every Targaryen In A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms Explained The Targaryen dynasty was in full swing by the time of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and the upcoming Game of Throne spin-off will have plenty.
I've seen, quite disastrously, how that can backfire with The Hobbit itself. Rather than one fun fantasy prequel movie to Lord of the Rings, they were turned into three movies totalling almost eight hours in runtime for the non-extended editions. They made a lot of money, sure , but in terms of quality they were a bloated mess. Almost all the charm, wit, and lightness of the book was lost, in favor of trying to recreate the grand epic scope and scale of Lord of the Rings.
