gotta say, bam watching the entirety of GoT within a week and posting about it in this thread is not something I knew I wanted, but now that it’s happening… oh boy. I am so down with this.

Dany is classic centrist. All good intentions, but when it comes to it can’t resist releasing some WMDs with massive collateral damage in the name of peace.

i’m confident you’ll be able to get through enough of it to wade into the last thread and post constantly about how it’s awful and we’re all terrible people for watching it

Started watching before it was cool :sunglasses: Downloaded the first ep straight after it aired in the US. Remember being very confused about what was going on but Jaime throwing Bran out the window happened and I’ve been hooked ever since.

Actually think it might have been because pocketmouse was raving about it before it started.

so far the thing that’s annoying me the most is how hard they are going in on the Arya “wow she’s a girl but acts like a boy!” thing. Feels pretty heavy-handed. (I know she goes on to kill basically everybody)

no this was before I watched anything.

I did this with Dune too. Never watched the film or read the books but spent basically a day reading up on all the characters. Quite fun to do this

characters actually seem more interesting in wiki summaries than in most fiction. You can imagine they are really well written/acted etc

Already decided I’m staying away from Monday’s thread. Man, that’s going to be an absolute horrorshow.

I’ve already picked out the card I’m going to use to summarise it. Not based on leaks or anything, I’m just reasonably confident that it’s going to be apt.

why are they doing that weird thing where some of the people have normal blokely names and others are like lord of the rings? Robert, Bran, Tyrian, Jamie. Should have gone all one way or the other I think
