Game of Thrones & GOT Spinoffs

[Frederick]

Not to nitpick, because I do like the series overall, that being said I do wish there were some better Black men characters. I could be wrong but out of the only ones I can recall, there was a pirate who loots other ships and ports, a complete fraud who was passing himself off as a rich guy to try to trick Danerys, and now the new guy who was a mindless drone who was chosen as the leader for Danerys' army who's name is "Grey Worm". Of course there has not been even a hint of IR, while it seems like almost every other character is getting busy as often as possible. Ok, feel better now, will get off soapbox...

Mindless drone and a neuter. "The unsullied" are all eunuchs.

Show is boring.

You crazy.

Then you have white people outraged that certain entertainment sources are being "pc" ie Thor and The Hunger Games.

The characters that people got pissed off about being cast with black actors in the movie were black in the books.

Show is boring.

The first few episodes are very tedious and frustrating if you have no frame of reference or appreciation for the mythology & history of G-O-T. HBO GO or On Demand can catch you up if you have Verizon FIOS - By episodes 3-5 you'll be very happy with the action-packed scenes of medeval battle and magical events. The opening episodes are predominantly for plot and setting because character development takes time to really be effective and compelling.

Just cowboy up and gut it out until you get past episode 3 my friend and the show is extremely rewarding - each and every season I promise you - but without those 'boring' opening episodes you newbies and G-O-T virgins would not know what all the action-packed scenes (typically beginning about episode 4) are even about right?

this past weeks episode was one of the best episodes they have done

 

[Young Herschel]

This week's episode was actually better because they put so much plot value into each scene. Two week wait for episode 9 is gonna be tuff but its guaranteed to be worth the wait!!!

Peter Dinklage/Tyrion Lannister - "I'm the God of tits and wine!!"

I've loved seeing Noah Taylor as Loche, he's such a brilliant actor

 

[Mighty Quinn]

I find Ms. Khaleesi frustrating. She looks way too much like Piper Perabo.

I just don't see the hype. Looks cookie cutter to me.

So... you haven't really watched it I take?:freehug:

 

[Morning Star]

Watched one episode, and concluded that it's no different from any other TV show of that kind.

What other TV shows of that kind?? What is your definition of "that kind"?

 

[Morning Star]

A [slightly] better looking TV show you can find on the sci-fi channel.

Are you high? Dude watch a couple more episodes there is a reason why everyone loves this shit so much. I have a feel you'd really like the imp character in particular

 

[Morning Star]

I'll probably give it a pass since it doesn't do much for me.

[Morning Star]

Hmmm, not really. I rarely watch a lot of TV and when I do, I'm usually into the likes of Dexter, Nurse Jackie, Californication, True Blood, and others. I thought the clip was okay, but nothing that spells "watch me".

I'll give this show a chance when I have the time, but now...I'll need to divert my attention to other things.

Naw dude. Put in the time. Shit is real with this show. It just takes a while to get going. They take the time to school you on the characters. It's all a about the story telling here. And the story telling is good. SyFy Channel don't have, and ain't never had, shows of this calibre.

 

[Morning Star]

It's just not my cup of tea. The same way how Trekkies go into utter spasms over the next Star Trek movie or series, I don't find a remote appeal to TV shows of that nature anyway.

Even the new star trek?

Its weird because you post in this thread a lot and seem to very knowledgable about a lot of the geeky stuff. I guess you're more sci fi and a lot less fantasy?
