Just finish it through the TV show. (Like they will anyways if george doesn't pick up the pace)

Has it been said that they will? They seem extremely book accurate so far.

They will run out of books after the sixth season at present; I doubt actors of the caliber included will want to do seven consecutive years of work on this.

Actors can work on multiple projects in one year. I assume this is why you are saying this?  Leonardo has done 3 movies in the last 12 months for example.

Filming on GoT was July-November for the last season. I don't think more than one other project would be possible, at least some of the key actors will find this limiting eventually. Eight years? I mean the child actors will have issues portraying their age as well.

Targaryan scenes only took 3 weeks to shoot if i remember right.  The show in a whole is huge however for each actor it is much smaller since there is soooo many actors.  Most of the work will be flying, directing, putting scenes together, editing etc.
