Game of Thrones-Observations

[chipbennett]

I tried to watch a couple of times but I think if you don’t watch from the beginning you are lost.

Quite true. I recommend starting with the books.

Never seen the show. Maybe some time when I have a few days it would be an interesting binge watch.

You will need at least a week or two

Haha. Take a week of vacation. A few days isn't going to cut it.

And no, deo, there is NO point in starting other than at the beginning and even then it would help immensely of you read at least the first book, simply to get all the players right in your mind.

I was doing the books. Got to the red wedding (fans will know and understand) threw the book at the wall and never picked it up again. Watched none of the episodes until 2 years ago. That's how pissed off I was...and such is the power of George RR Martin's storytelling.

I think most viewers responded about the same to “The Rains of Castamere” and the Red Wedding. I got a great laugh out of reaction videos on YouTube. Speaking of which, I’m off to see reaction videos to Arya’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Assassin takedown...

Starts off slow but it builds as you go along

Frankly, I was kind of disappointed in episode 3. it was way too dark to pick out much on my tv screen most of the time. Guess that makes it easier of the CGI?

I had heard it was dark. We waited until we could watch it on our projector in dark basement. It was enjoyable. We paused it near end of fight when it looked like they were hiding behind a burial chamber. My wife was in bathroom, hallway was dark. I turned light on my phone on my face, made a zombie face and waited outside the door. She shuts light off and exits and about dies

Good thing she doesn't carry in the toilet...

 

[hoosierdoc]

yeah. I got some profanity and several air punches

New episode drops and nothing? The sea battle seemed a tad rushed

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Lot of things seem rushed. Like leaving a cup of Starbucks on camera.

Pretty much the only bit of good writing in this one was Varys/Tyrion conversation. Everything else just... as it has been... felt like it made no sense.

Who doesn't see an entire fleet, while airborne?

Don't swoop around behind them and torch them.

Don't hit them while they're reloading.

Nevermind, I know it's all just fanservice. I just wish it wasn't so shallow.

Edit: Apparently not enough budget to pet the damn dog.
