《权力的游戏》拍七季还不够
英语课
"Game of Thrones" showrunners D.B. Weiss and David Benioff have said that they envision their HBO series ending after seven seasons. However, HBO has an appetite for even more Westeros.
《权力的游戏》的主创人员D?B?威斯和大卫?贝尼奥夫称，他们计划用七季来完结这部HBO系列剧。然而，播出方HBO希望维斯特洛大陆神话能够继续。
Entertainment Weekly got the scoop 1 from HBO programming president Michael Lombardo, who said the network would love to see the hit show extend beyond seven seasons. But Weiss and Benioff don't necessarily agree, saying their main focus is on giving the series a proper, satisfying ending, regardless of how many seasons that requires. “We want to go out on our absolute highest note,” Weiss said. Benioff added, “We know basically how many hours are left in this story. We don’t want to add 10 hours to that. It’s about finding that sweet spot so it works for us and for HBO and, most of all, it works for the audience.”
《娱乐周报》独家采访了HBO节目执行总裁迈克尔?隆巴多，他表示，该公司期待这部大热剧集播出超过七季。这句话，威斯和贝尼奥夫未见得同意，因为他们表示更加在意如何能给该系列剧一个合适的、满意的结局，而不是谁要求的播出多少集。威斯说道：“我们想要这部剧在声名最盛时结束，”贝尼奥夫补充说：“这个故事还有多少小时完结我们基本有数，不想再额外添10个小时了，我们要找到那个恰到好处的完结时刻，我们眼中或者对播出公司而言的最佳时刻，最重要的是，要是全体观众眼中最好的完结点。”

And what about a "Game of Thrones" movie? Speculation 2 first began last year when George R.R. Martin mentioned a feature film could possibly end the series. HBO isn't big on the idea though, since they want to stay loyal to their subscribers instead of keeping the ending exclusive to movie theaters.
那么，关于《权力的游戏》将会拍成电影的消息是否为真？2014年，原著作者乔治?R?R?马丁曾透露可能会以一部电影来完结此剧。HBO对此兴趣不大，因为他们想要对付费观众负责，而不是把结局专门留给电影院。
So far, "Game of Thrones" has only officially been renewed for a Season 6 and negotiations 3 have been made with the top cast for a potential Season 7 -- which may hint at a possible spoiler. We do know the upcoming fifth season will deviate 4 from the books, hence our speculation about where Sansa's storyline is headed and news that an unexpected character will die this year. Regardless, the future of the Seven Kingdoms is in your hands, Weiss and Benioff.
迄今为止，《权力的游戏》官方只续订到第六季，而这次讨论暗示应该会拍摄第七季。人们知道的是即将播出的第五季将会脱离原著剧情，此后我们对故事主线的推测将成为主导，有消息称2015年会有一个意想不到的角色死亡。无论如何，威斯和贝尼奥夫，七大王国的未来就在你们的手上了。
