It initially looked like a shoestring budget version of 300, I thought it looked terrible but a lot of people said it was great silly fun and surprisingly engaging (but people said that about 300: Rise Of An Empire and they were wrong).

Cool man i'll check it out
i don't like action scenes or fighting scenes when they get too corny or goofy i like it when they have just the right amount of gravitas which is why i still watch GoT

Not that it's surprising, but once you start bringing characters back to life, even in a world with thousands of snow zombies, then nothing really matters, does it? I only read the first couple of books, but it sounds like the show skipped/avoided the bizarro Lady Snowbrain or whatever plot, right? Just reading descriptions of that made no sense to me. So however he's brought back, assuming he is, and there is no reason not to assume he will be, then what the hell? Is he going to fight Zombie Mountain? Parley with the snow zombies? Bring all his ample dead family back, too?

Ian McShane:
“You say the slightest thing and the internet goes ape. I was accused of giving the plot away, but I just think get a fucking life. It’s only tits and dragons.
They asked me if I wanted to do Game of Thrones and I said, 'Sure, I’ll be able to see my old pals Charlie Dance and Stephen Dillane’ and they said, 'No, we’ve killed them off.’ I wasn’t sure whether I could commit, but then they said it would only be for one episode, so I said, 'So that means I must die at the end of it. Great, I’m in.’ ”

i've been rewatching s1 for some reason and this criticism of goole's
the nobility were hardly ever alone. they were surrounded by their relatives, their staff, their households. the show is underpopulated. everyone seems to be in transit or being abducted between one of like five places, wouldn't they just run into each other in the middle?
really is funny: there's a scene where sean bean and carcetti are walking in a vast garden containing not a single other living soul save the identically dressed attendants raking the gravel, about 50% of whom carcetti points out as spies for one or other of the three people who walk in the garden and scheme. it's like borges.

ha ha A contrast to Rome where there were always servants hanging around in the background even during the sex scenes
― Blowout Coombes (President Keyes), Monday, 14 March 2016 19:00 (eight years ago) link
king robert's fatal hunting party is also literally four people: the king, his ineffectual squire, his gay brother who hates hunting, and an old guy
unrelatedly, boy do people in this show do that thing where they walk away from the other guy in the scene and the other guy asks a weighted question and the first guy stops walking while a shot of his unhappy face captures his smug, blurry interlocutor over the shoulder
anyway i expect i'll be all caught up by the end of this week
― denies the existence of dark matter (difficult listening hour), Monday, 14 March 2016 19:03 (eight years ago) link
otoh Literally every scene in a royal palace is characters scheming so if there were a bunch of servants hanging around the internet would be complaining about how dumb the characters were for talking in front of them and so unrealistic and totally took me out of it
― Blowout Coombes (President Keyes), Monday, 14 March 2016 19:07 (eight years ago) link
not sure there's a better moment in s1 than when a conversation between carcetti and the eunuch (pretty sure this guy is the most reliable actor in the show btw) goes on and on and on with each line more pregnant with dramatic hostility than the one before it, until finally they get out of it by having renly bound in and yell WHAT ARE YOU TWO CONSPIRING ABOUT?

yeah the sense of scale is really small, way less than what i expected based on reading the books. maybe my mental imaginarium has been too influenced by the LotR movies idk
