Don’t watch all of the last season, believe me. It’s good for the first three episodes, but the rest of it is utter rubbish.
Levenrack · 46-50, M
@Ducky Well GRRM stated that the books are not going to end like the HBO series, so I guess that's something to look forward to, if you enjoy reading.....

.....and drink a lot!

@Ducky George RR Martin took his sweet time writing the sequels. They blew through the material for the 5 books around Season 5 and 6 and took "notes" from Martin about the ending and major story beats upcoming in the books.

The 2 producers, D. B. Weiss and David Benioff got distracted by their fame, and they were excited to take over the Star Wars franchise.

Unlike the earlier seasons, where they took their time and were able to focus on the important story points and characters, the later seasons were rushed and little contradictions, mistakes and stupid decisions ruined the ending.

I don't believe Martin will ever finish the books, and they will hand it over to a ghostwriter to finish when he dies.

@SumKindaMunster Fuck! I'd take an "as is" version if he'd hang up his cap and retire from it, if he absolutely can not complete Winds.

It gave me all the feels. I laughed, I cried, I was scared, I was repulsed. It kept me wanting more..That show was amazing from start to finished.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@AngelUnforgiven That's how I'm feeling about it so far.
AngelUnforgiven · 51-55, F
@HowtoDestroyAngels good I'm glad that you are enjoying it. I'm going to rewatch it some time soon
I wasn't really a fan in terms of watching the whole thing but some scenes that I caught were epic and I could tell that it was a good show for fans of that particular genre.
Levenrack · 46-50, M
Well, if any of you are big readers, I can't stress enough about reading the book series. When you have to reset yourself because it is too... intense. I had to get up and walk away, to try to psych myself up, to keep going. Most of the time, I'd go and reread a few pages back, before moving on.
Levenrack · 46-50, M
The first 4 seasons are amazing, S5 is more like eeerrr ok I guess I can hang with it, but it's starting to taste funky. S6 through S7..... I could have gone without watching. S8.... just like @SumKindaMunster pointed out. Don't do it, but we know you probably will anyway.
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
Criticisms of the later seasons are not unjustified, but they are overblown. I thought the ending was generally satisfying, other than a point or two.
4thdimensiondream · 70-79, M
It’s still on my “to do” list. I did watch the prequel and loved it so I know I will love GOT.
FreeorLonely · 51-55, F
I loved it and also watched it way after everyone else.
MistressChloe · 36-40, FNew
I enjoyed the movie as well
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@MistressChloe What movie?
MistressChloe · 36-40, FNew
@HowtoDestroyAngels Game of thrones
Levenrack · 46-50, M
@HowtoDestroyAngels Yeah like duh..... You know cause like, GoT was just a really long movie, so it was broken up and shown as periodically scheduled installment pieces, to make it more inclusive and feasible, allowing the kiddies more chances to watch explicit sexual debauchery and gore. 😋

As usual, I am joking. 🙃
SumKindaMunster · 56-60, M
What season you on?
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
SumKindaMunster · 56-60, M
@HowtoDestroyAngels My experience was that Seasons 1-4 were fantastic, cracks started showing in Seasons 5 and 6, and then it really started to go downhill in Season 7 and finally the last Season was trash.

I hope you enjoy it. If you are a reader, I recommend the books as well, they were excellent.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@SumKindaMunster My son is going to let me read the books when he's finished with them. He's the one that told me that I needed to watch the show.
stayfickle · 26-30, F
Which season are you already?
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
stayfickle · 26-30, F
@HowtoDestroyAngels oooooh. Things started taking real good phase around season 4-5. Although not promising that it will be same on the remaining seasons - I do hope you watch it til the end :)

Who’s your fav character so far? I just love Arya hhahaha.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@stayfickle My favorite character is John Snow.

Good stuff - crazy really.
MoveAlong · 70-79, M
You have to have really dastardly villains for an epic series like this to work. GOT is chock full of dastardly villains.
HowtoDestroyAngels · 46-50, M
@MoveAlong Halfway through season 3.
MoveAlong · 70-79, M
@HowtoDestroyAngels Awesome. Having all seasons available is the way to go. I saw it when it first came out. Between seasons I would forget so much of what happened the season before. I often had to look back and read a recap of previous episodes to keep from being lost.
MoveAlong · 70-79, M
@HowtoDestroyAngels Season 3 episode 9 has one of the most pivotal and shocking scenes of the entire series. Buckle up.

I don't think this is a spoiler. If you think it is please delete.
redbottomgirl24 · 26-30, F
It's trash. The books are better. The show doesn't follow them
SpectralMourning · 41-45, M
@redbottomgirl24 They did a terrible job adapting the parts from Winds of Winter.
sabertooth10 · 36-40, M
@redbottomgirl24 I enjoyed the early seasons
tenente · 36-40, M
