Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss made the news earlier this week, after speaking at the Austin Film Festival and casually revealing they had no idea of what they were doing at various points during the creation of what’s still the best show on television. The two came under fire for the way they handled the final season of the show. The writing was sub-par for most of the show, and fans trolled Benioff and Weiss with the help of Google and started two petitions that went viral. The most popular one was asking HBO to remake season 8 with more competent writers, while a second petition targeted Disney, asking the studio to put a halt to the Star Wars trilogy that D&D were supposed to make. While HBO will not remake season 8, Star Wars fans should be happy to hear that Benioff and Weiss have officially stepped away from the project.
