This seems to have gone off flawlessly on Foxtel's streaming service.

6 eps.
Some play it safe on the merry-go-round, others go for the thrills of the roller-coaster.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
I thought the last 6 were due this year, 2018?

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
I've decided to read the books. Up to book 5 now. The variations in the TV show are interesting and to my mind some of them are improvements on the books.

Oh, I read/listened to them before watching the first Ep.
Every time a new book came out redid the old ones first.

I expected more. Not more story as such but more punch in the story portrayed. I’m wanting another red wedding moment

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
I thought it was alright. It's ending so that's a good thing. Other shows have my interest like Narco's Mexico atm so I'm just seeing this series through to the end and I don't think I'll ever watch any of it again.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
WTF!!! This show is now so far up it's own ARSE it is lost (much like the books from what I hear). After the first 3 episodes I feel they don't know how to end it without it being a complete balls up...
I really hope I am wrong about this but with only 3 more episodes left til it ends I'm not expecting much from it anymore.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
I saw a Tweet with all the records they broke in that ep. So that would explain most of it.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
So in other words pointless other than to break records. I think my fears are being confirmed...

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
They're in the impossible position of having to wrap up an incredibly complex world in a way that both keeps the audience happy yet retains the brutal twists and turns of the show. I don't think there's a way you can deliver those two things.

How on earth was it pointless? The whole show has been building up to that battle. "Winter is coming." Of course they had to make it big.Duke wrote:So in other words pointless other than to break records. I think my fears are being confirmed...
Being the longest battle is the only record in the tweet. The others are just stats.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
Of course the outcome was a given. When was the last time you watched a movie where the bad guys won?
All the info I posted was in the show as well.

Re: Game of Thrones (TV series)
The thing I most liked about GoT early on was you didnt know who was going to bite the dust next!
I really expected some of the big stars to go tits up this time around, but it didnt happen. I know we lost some players. The firey little girl. The smoke out the twat lady. The bloke that never dies, well he died! (yes, it shows how much I am invested in it all by how well I know all the names)
And I respect people like Darren that have a handle on things better than I know my own life. But I am still disappointed with that ep. And this season to be honest. But, it hasnt deteriorated as badly as some shows. (Im looking at you Dexter!)
Now, what do we think will happen next? Will Jamie strangle Cersei while doing her from behind? Will Tormund finally get to hold hands with the Knight Lady Brienne? Will Bran sprout wings and gain mobility again? Will John Snow Targereon Sand Bastard Aunty Fucker pump some dragons into the Queen of them? Will Arya say to Podric "Stick me with you pointy end!"? Will the Hound catch up on his "c**t" quota? Will Tyrion manage a 5 way with 4 whores?
So many questions!

Norbs, I'd really like you to do a commentary track to the whole thing.
