I feel like a guy that just got out of a long term relationship and was hurt really bad.

I’m finally back on my feet and now a pretty girl gives me her number. I’m tempted to call but don’t know if I have the stomach to get hurt again.

Even if it actually turns out to be great I have a feeling the people who are boycotting it will still be in denial unfortunately

Local theater here the Silverspot is actually doing a free watch party every Sunday. Of course the food and drink are not free but may it enjoy it on the big screen

Is this based on any source material or is it an original screenplay? I’m worried it won’t have all the political maneuvering that made the early seasons of GoT great since it apparently revolves around one family. I will watch though because dragons and shite.

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the dragon involvement on GOT. Going into GOT, I sort of watched it despite the fact I knew dragons were involved. I kinda figured it would be silly. I was very wrong.

Does the "series" itself (other than various trailers) not show up on HBO Max until the 1st episode officially gets released? I searched for it and the only thing that pops up are the trailers.

Will be watching. Interested in seeing what all they actually cover from Fire and Blood. Especially since we’re getting younger versions of the characters.


Don’t want to post spoilers for non-readers. The trailers make it pretty clear. Also look at the cast list.

I will watch but the trailer is not encouraging. Single focus and no real intrigue. Looks very predictable.

And the lead female looks creepy as hell.

Hopefully Martin will eventually finish the books and change this result (knowing how loathed it was) and change the official canon.

Wonder if we get a Mushroom appearance.

Guess I’m in since my 15 yr old drug himself through GOT in the last month and is excited. I will say his review of the show wasn’t as bad when binge watched. Other than the Bran must be evil if he “came all that way” and let it all happen or the Varys had a secret jet pack to get him around quickly.

Letting it go for a few weeks to see if it’s worth diving back into. I’m glad D&D aren’t involved but I just don’t see this being worth my time.

Be sure to tell him the showrunners “didn’t want a bunch of white people on the screen” so he knows why they made certain creative decisions

Didn’t want a bunch of white people so they chose the Targs is one of the dumbest and funniest things ever from HBO

Who has a better story than Bran the broken?

Literally anyone. Bran was so important he got to take an entire season off

Then bran comes back to the Starks and he’s all “ I’m the 3 eyed raven” and Arya and Sansa are like uhhh ok bro whatever the frick that means… anyway
