I enjoy the show, it is well written, and they have some good actors.
I just got into it last year. had to binge watch all of it. Now I'm addicted to it.
Is it just me or is this season seeming very rushed. The first 6 seasons were so meticulous and methodical. This one seems like they are just trying to go through the paces just to get a a pay off.
Still the best show on TV, but I'm getting the feeling that they are trying to tie this up before the actors' contracts come up for renegotiation.
Yeah, it has come off a bit rushed. Still great, but I'm thinking they've got a lot to get in fast before there is a coalition of all the conniving groups to fight against The White Walkers.
Would love to see a little more realistic strategic maneuvering in the next battle scenes. I mean they are fun to watch and all but get tired of all the mindless screaming frontal assaults. I guess that's what you have to do to make a 10 minute battle. The sickle swords look cool too, but those were outdated before the Greek Hoplites, and Game of Thrones is set to look like late Middle Ages. Hmmm... a sickle sword would look scary coming at your throat, though.
I still love the show. I usually watch each episode twice.
I think this season is a little rushed too. I understand they have to tie up alliances before Winter hits, but still....
At least the Loot Train battle frikkin rocked!
I also thought Peter Dinklage (Tyrion) was a lot more fun when he was a drunken whore-monger. So many juicy, funny scenes ("Where is the God of tits and wine?"). Now that he's respectable he just stands around and...gives advice. Waste of a fine actor.
It's now football season and college bands are playing music from Game of Thrones when their team goes on defense. Finally, move over Star wars Empire music. Well, at least my alma mater doesn't play any of those but will play Bad Bad Leroy Brown.
I've checked out some of those spoiler 'prediction' sites but I will not post what I read.
I can't wait for next season. I hope they do get a budget increase because I'd love a long battle scene with a lot of tactics. And I would love to see more of those wolves.
What the fuck is there to watch on TV now? Well, football, of course. But I'd love to have a great series to watch until...
