I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

No idea, but with his TV background I have all the confidence that the showrunners will roll out the remained of the series staying very true to his original intentions.

GRRM is around to steer the overall story more broadly so it comes to the conclusion he's always envisioned, but otherwise, the showrunners have quite a bit of freedom as to how they get there.
