Game of Thrones (Official Thread)

This season has been a big fucking let down. Nothing ever seems to really happen, and when something does happen it's fucking stupid and done poorly.

That seems like a fairly predictable consequence of killing off 50% of your main characters while stretching a planned trilogy into seven books once they became popular.

I also recall being bored for large stretches of the books due to characters just moving around the map with not a lot happening.

Old ones, but still funny...

Just a shit season so far. Very disappointing.

For all the bad/boring stuff I've heard about the 2 books that this season is covering I think it's been pretty good. I'm still dragging my ass out of bed at 5:20 every Monday morning to watch it.

They are certainly much better at seduction than being intimidating seekers of vengence.

 

[Saw31]

Oh shit!

Best battle sequence the show has done yet. After 5 seasons of non-stop fear over the White Walkers, they finally delivered and the fear is warranted. Badass mofos. The kids were the best part.

I loved aFFC and aDWD. Loved. I know they're slower paced than the 1st 3 books, but I loved the dialog and small folk perspective. One of my favorite characters in any books ever is Manderly. The Dorne plot, The North Remembers, the (likely imo) GNC, Reek and fArya. Stannis, etc,etc...they were all some of the best written portions of the entire series, even if the head chopping and rape slowed down a bit.

Anyway, it's clear imo, that as soon as Beinoff and Weiss get outside of anything already on page, they fucking struggle and it fucking shows. It's pathetic honestly. They're taking a damn good series of books and fucking it up trying to stand on the shoulders of giants and tell the world how tall they are

Can't comment right now, busy Googling pictures of Birgitte Hjort Sørensen.

Dammit. That chick needed more than 25 minutes of screen time.
