HBO / MAX Game of Thrones - Brace yourselves, spoilers are coming

[Mook]

fucking in

based on a huge book series (4 books) called A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin. reminds me of a much darker lord of the rings. i guess the tv adaption is staying pretty faithful to the books as well.

first 12 minutes..

HBO.com

premiers april 17th. i guess its a good thing i get hbo free for 6 months.

Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom’s protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. Sweeping from a land of brutal cold to a distant summertime kingdom of epicurean plenty, here is a tale of lords and ladies, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and bastards, who come together in a time of grim omens. Here an enigmatic band of warriors bear swords of no human metal; a tribe of fierce wildlings carry men off into madness; a cruel young dragon prince barters his sister to win back his throne; and a determined woman undertakes the most treacherous of journeys. Amid plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and terror, the fate of the Starks, their allies, and their enemies hangs perilously in the balance, as each endeavors to win that deadliest of conflicts: the game of thrones.

I think it was a shout out to the way the writers think the world is and the way they think they want it to be.

.... How could it have been when the season was filmed damn near a year ago...

Because Bran the Broken 3 Eyed Raven told them that the fans would be starting a petition!

What was the fucking point of this scene?

 

[Broke EF]

What was the point of 90% of the show? To think, they left out so much from the book too!

I feel a lot better about the ending now.

Love the Trogdor reference

I feel like an idiot when I make Trogdor references and no one gets them.

I just haven't seen the posts to appreciate them

 

[Broke EF]

I know like 2 people who get any Home Star references, and that's really sad. Lucky for me, my wife knew all about Trogdor the burninator before I even met her

Hence why she is a wife.

Whenever I see weird errors on anything I work on, I say it threw up Linux or something. Nothing. Every time.

The media couldn't even let us enjoy/dislike GoT without turning into some pile of political garbage....

https://www.chicagotribune.com/g00/...ones-conservative-tv-kass-20190522-story.html

I loved “Game of Thrones” when it was a left-leaning political fantasy, as creator George R.R. Martin admitted when he told The New York Times — while feeding the appetites of the beltway media collective — that the mad boy king Joffrey was indeed the mad king Donald Trump.

I loved GoT when it was the most popular program in the blue liberal states and less so in conservative red states. The inner, hidden nerd in me (perhaps the nerd is no longer hidden) loved it even as HBO prudently herded its cash cow away from a sexist mashup of female breasts and dragons and political revenge in tights into something else again:

A epic feminist saga with strong, proud and ethical women (OK, forget Cersei) dealing with the world not as they wished it would be but as it was. And most of the men were either too narcissistically evil, stupid, venal or cowardly to do much good.

Oh, men!

But now our watch has ended.

And it’s obvious that as it ended, “Game of Thrones” was not the fantasy of the socialist left that it started out as, but a reaffirmation of conservative/libertarian beliefs.

It rejected the left’s cult of personality and worship of central authority that would decide what was best for us whether we liked it or not.

And it transformed itself into a show that William F. Buckley would have loved.

What the actual fuck? I feel like they were trying to just get every buzzword or phrase into a single article. How can it have anything to do with trump and current politics when (besides it being based in a fictional medieval world) it was written starting in the mid 90's? I hate the media.
