George R.R. Martin Says ‘Anti-Fans’ Rule Social Media and ‘Dance on the Graves’ of Movies That Flop: ‘It Used to Be Fun Talking About Our Favorite Films’

"Game of Thrones" creator George R.R. Martin says anti-fans dominate social media with hate and celebration of movies flopping.

From war in Ukraine and Gaza to hate rising across America, Martin wrote that it’s ugly to experience the news and even talk about it with people since “the era of rational discourse seems to have ended.” Martin knows a thing or two about contending with “anti-fans” on social media given the extreme backlash that met the final season of HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” which is based off his ongoing book series. The author is also involved in the prequel series “House of the Dragon,” confirming in December that he got to screen the first two episodes of the upcoming new season.
