Good job on not mentioning that they didn't rush the last two seasons with 13 episodes so they can move on to making the next Star Wars trilogy. Were their hands force to do that? Do you really believe that they put forth an honest effort in the last two seasons? Or did they just half assed so they can move on?

They did a great job with season 6 when they had a proper full season.

I am of the opinion that D&D are not the bad writers that was that clearly demonstrated in season 7 and 8 and that they were fully capable of delivering a worthy ending to GRRM's story, had they did a 10 episodes season, all the way up to season 10 with those damn "bullet points". But they kind of got tied of doing the show and wanted to move on.

I think Benioff and Weiss thought they could have their cake and eat it too.

They probably thought they could rush the final season of "GOT", still produce a high quality product, then move directly onto Star Wars. Because the interviews leading up to the final season, they kept saying things like "we want to go out like 'Breaking Bad', that's our goal" and how they only want to leave fans satisfied.

At some point it became obvious they fell short of that mark....maybe in post production, or editing. Who knows? But their tone changed in interviews. They did one....I think it was Conan, and they said something like "we aren't gonna be anywhere near the finale when it airs, we're gonna be drunk and off the internet."

So yeah....they are talented writers but obviously not talented enough to pull off what they tried.

Honestly I noticed the decline in quality in season 7. When they started to time travel around Westeros it really ruined my immersion into that world, then the forced romance between Dany & Jon...

I think Jon & Dany could have been great but it wasn't really sold to me in the series. Unfortunately I have no desire to watch this series ever again, which is a shame because I really got into the lore when it was at its peak.

stayed tuned for hbo's maleficent : Game of thrones

anyone who collected comics in the exact min nineties from 1996-1999.
to now, if they are crazy enough to buy comics presently.
could have, would have and should have told you this was going to be some bullshyt.
yet this board always gives this global headfake like they in the know.
when anyone in the knows,..knows they globally do not.


welcome to maleficient meets any and every female trash lead comic from the independent creator's revolution in comics during the mid nineties.
also,...if you can not see kids all in fastfood establishment unison.
holding an action figure flying playset shaped as anything from a dragon to a plane.
Along with and the accompanying male and female hero.
that shyt is some bullshyt.
also don't give me the r rated bullshyt either.
when i know for a fact i owned r rated film property action figure toys as a kid.
such as the r rated movie lone ranger action figure.
plus the playset riding figure silver with ranger's female love interest.
or clash of the titans with Pegasus, the girl in peril to the kraken and Perseus


with anything hbo or Disney inspired.
I know from back in the day.
as far back as sword and the sorceror to shogun assassin.
airing esrly in the morning on on tv and spectrum boxes. That most shyt on HBO does not translate to this high quality end marking franchise. let alone one that warrants this type of fan fare. That really is as great wholely like critics pan it to be. Nor, does hbo typically have in house shows that end on a great send off ever in general. Example, sopranos.

so again i cram to understand in this day and age of honor the villainess after maleficient did inhouse Disney changing landscape numbers.
did anyone ever weigh those factors together and realize they were watching some softcore Emmanuel meets maleficient ass shyt.
that would of course after the adult direction of starz on sparticus.
did numbers and gained cult to mainstream fame.
that GOT as a pre-req, to THE FOLLOW THE SOURCE MATERIAL EDICT.
easily descend into ratcheted up incest and Pedo to gay content as well.
that easily overshadowed any and every critic who watched the show globally. That shows that globally all the critics are paid off to fool the general collective you.
or, and in addition.
the critics and the global mainstream do not know the quality dynamics of the era of the properties they claim to know so much about. In the whole follow the source material fan boy nerd ideal. That globally and ideally illustrate this so called source material fanboy nerd ideal is really a bunch of fukk'n posers. Who really did not and still have not done any discovery zone on the era and time. As real talk.
there are not many properties left that can be directly translated via straight nonmovie magic conversion using just the source material.
plus, Lucas already showed what to do with any property regardless.
which is to infuse it with components of discovery to the age bracket concisely you are trying to market said property to.
so either the fan base is not as well versed as they say.

or the business owners who own this shyt know most people are some bandwagon following dolts. Where they can fake like they are giving you a high quality product. When they were never going go give you a high quality product tone well in full scope and execution at all.

how this so-called well versed contingent of nerd fans. All fell for this obvious mid nineties meets hbo low quality series ploy, slash maleficient.
I dunno.
well i do know.
I know mostly all of the people on the bandwagon of this show.
were some fukk'n i read and know media and books face ass posers.
when anyone who read anything in the midnineties could easily see this was some.
at best some half assed done scantily clad nineties babe book meets the soft core romance novel section.
Complete with a Michael o hearn and midajah cover of your choice low quality romance novel waste of time. With no real redeemable hero or heroine to ever be found anywhere in the material whatsoever.

if you fell for this maleficient softcore porn HBO low quality take on a id-nineties comic babe type ideal with no redeemable heterosexual characters in sight worth a cot damn. Then it shows you really not as well versed as your comic book guy meets media nerd self would lead us to believe.

anyone who was really in a comic book shop from 1996-1999. Could have easily said this GOT shyt was some bullshyt.

glad i did not waste my time, but i know as a carnal rule.

if that r rated shyt.
does not have kids playing with it's core hero's, and the female love interest and the hero's flying playset toy.
that shyt is some bullshyt and gonna have a completely shyt ending.
especially if it comes on hbo and they say it is supposed to be good.

Breh all due respect but you have no idea what you're talking about.

Tonally "GOT" was closer to something like "The Wire" or "Sopranos" as far as it focused on the characters and the inner workings of the various factions, etc. with things like magic and dragons making appearances sporadically.

And :dahell: at "it had no redeemable heterosexual characters". There was a ton of them. Only like 1-2 characters were gay and they wasn't even around in the later seasons.

The show fell off because the writers got a bag from "Star Wars" and rushed writing the final season. That's it. Prior to that it could've easily went toe-to-toe with any prestige drama in history. Saying "I knew it was some bullshyt!" when your whole reason is predicated on things that don't even apply to the series....and the reason the show fell off objectively has nothing to do with what you're talking about....is odd as fukk.

first off from the jump.
the series has no redeemable heterosexual actual hero.
to create any energy to plausibly create a female heroine or effective villainess. As this show clearly wanted to do in maleficent style fashion.
nor did it feature any redeemable heterosexual character and male hero.
Who plausibly looked or even acted remotely like he was of the snuff as a moral figure. It featured mediocre characters with ratcheted up mid nineties garbage antivillain semantics. Straight out of a rob liefeld at image with no editor meets hbo Cinemax Emmanuel playbook. If the show had any redeemable hero who was it?

I will wait.
I notice you never mentioned or replied in simple kind.
who that character is. As that character never existed.
or you would have fan boy mentioned one by now.
including that character would resoundly in popular relevance.
ring true to you mentioning them by popular resounding opinion. That character has never materialized in simple fandom.
plus and was never there.
to warrant this series really being of high quality.
like it was falsely reviewed.
The show was bulllshyt off top.
that anyone well versed in the range of content from the time period I am taking about.
could easily Ascertain that from one viewing anywhere in the shows continuity.
or at the very opening episode in the beginning.
or if they were dumb enough to watch it till the end.
to get the ultimate this was a bullshyt waste of all my time conclusive finale.

sohh,...
for some So called media content experts.
who all flodge'n, and pose'n
like i said,... I cram to understand.

how so many people fell for this obvious mediocre mid nineties comic scantily clad anti-hero turn villainess meets maleficient style bullshyt.

now,....and especially since you mentioned the wire.
I have to point out how close to but not thorough you are. As anyone who really watched the wire from the beginning. Knows the series was originally a well done better take on the a typically hbo urban pisspoor quality stereotype cop and blow drama.
originally to turn it into a gritty urban world drama into a standard hbo real world premise meets strict cop show. Which was to bait and switch the viewership from its original barksdale origins. That had to be re-righted after the fan turn in the direction on season two. For this cop drama only based dynamic. Back into the barksdale origins content directionwise. Which was also glossed over by this so called contingent of experts on HBO content. Who have selective memory. or really do not know the crate like they allude to So again,...for So called media expert signing his name at the bottom of his posts.
yet clearly missing what makes him not:


art barr

I cram to understand.
how you and the general youse's.
Can not ascertain.
that hbo will bait and switch its viewers in its series mid season to finale as far as quality and direction. When you open speaking of the wire and sopranos. Which shows you clearly skimmed the material and any rant attached like you know. When it is obvious you assumed and do not know what you really talembout. As in my rant. I mention the ideal that hbo will do this and have done this with the sopranos. Not to mention, in any wire thread and discussion of season two is brought up.

I came back to this this thread several times and couldn't bring myself to open that wound back up. I will carry this pain to my death bed. And all of my friends and family will too. Cause I will remind them of this bullshyt right before they die. And prolly even GRRM's ending woulda been trash too cause bran becoming king is just garbage. and then you send Jon to go live in the forest?.....after all that character build up?....smh. I've avoided every GOT related discussion since that finale. What's really funny is how little discussion there actually is. It's almost like people just wiped GOT from their memory.


But all in all I still loved episode 3 despite the criticism. It should have ended right there looking back. That scene with the night king walking up to bran is prolly still the GOAT scene of the whole series. And we also got this all time blassic out of it. This could very well be the GOAT music piece of all time. fukk what anybody says:wow:

You are not going to sit here and rewrite history man. God damn. You really tried though.

If you go check the season 8 thread....nobody gave a fukk about "getting what they want". If that's the type of fans "GOT" had then nobody would've watched after Ned died.

The problem was the rush job they did and the execution of pretty much every major plot point. Not the plot point itself.

Dany is the mad queen? Ok cool. The way it was handled? Amateur hour.

You can take that and apply it to virtually every plot development in the last season, big or small.

If you liked the final season ok cool....but don't lie about this shyt. Because what you're saying happened....is a bold faced lie.

Fred.
I liked the final season, but this is 100% true..i guess i expected it to be pretty rushed and them saying “dont worry, 3 episodes will be feature film length” didnt really help deter me from feeling that way. They fukked it up as clearly that last season should have been 3 seasons worth of material....but with them not being great writers in general that may have put this show in Walking Dead seasons 7&8 territory. But at the end of the day, it is what it is.

Thank you for your reply. Although your reading of my post betrays your bias.

I didn't say she went Mad Queen. Never even mentioned. I said she went Targ, big difference. The Mad King didn't have to conquer anything.

Dany returned to Westeros to conquer. The fires were still burning and she jumped up and started talking like she wanted to conquer the world.

That's what Targs are, genocidal conquerors and enslavers. So Dany went Targ.

All the best.
