Couldn't properly tell the story in an 80 hour show; it's okay, though - a 2 hour movie will do the trick.

Hey! It could be 3, we don't know yet.

Apparently it's just about another Targaryen, not about characters in the show.

Not sure how many written by ggr Martin books they still can adapt, but if they come close to A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms that would be a great movie.

Should’ve just not ruined the show

I don't know who this is for. The show was 8 seasons and even then it felt rushed at the end, and each episode of it was close to a standard movie runtime. Then we have the spin-off shows. What exactly can get done, storywise, in even a 2 & ½ hour fillum? You'd spend the entire runtime just explaining who the fuck everyone is. And even if watching the OG show is a prerequisite, it's still not long enough to get through more than 2 or 3 monologues.
