George R.R. Martin holds firm to his position: Dragons have two legs, not four

Recently, author George R.R. Martin expressed his critique regarding the way dragons were illustrated in both “Game of Thrones” and “House of the Dragon”. Specifically, he pointed out that some dragon symbols on these shows portray dragons with four legs, whereas in his “Song of Ice and Fire” series and the book “Fire & Blood”, Martin consistently depicts dragon sigils as having only two legs. In essence, Martin commented that it seems someone made a mistake or, perhaps, someone glanced at a heraldry book, grasped a bit of information, but ended up confusing everything. As he put it, “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.”

Katey Sagal joins One Piece season 2 after Jamie Lee Curtis passes on role

Netflix has been filming the second season of “One Piece” for approximately two months, as reported by Deadline. The first season, which was based on the globally acclaimed manga by Eiichiro Oda, was a huge success when it premiered in 2023; unlike many other anime-to-live-action adaptations, it managed to maintain the whimsical flexibility of the animated version while providing a thrilling live-action adventure that resonated well with viewers. The characters Monkey D. Luffy (played by Iñaki Godoy), Zoro (Mackenyu), Nami (Emily Rudd), Usopp (Jacob Romero) and Sanji (Taz Skylar) will all reprise their roles as they embark on a perilous journey across the Grand Line to find the One Piece treasure, with the ultimate goal of becoming the king of pirates.
