Like I can't even recall any nudity in the first 2 eps of this season, I feel like the whole sex in GoT thing is a bit overblown.

Compared to the books, the show is a work of art. Weighing it on it's own merits it's embarrassingly bad softcore porn for Dungeons and Dragons nerds.

I'm pretty sure most goons just echo overblown complaints other goons had so they can look funny or hip in GBS or something. A bunch of people bitch that there's too much 'political bullshit,' and a different bunch of people bitch that there's too much violence and sex. You can't please everyone. There is a lot of sexposition though. cr05580n35 posted:I really enjoyed the books, but have become less excited with the show. Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Apr 22, 2015 |

Being hip in GBS is the cool thing, which is why I'm posting about this terrible show, Game of Thrones

there was some comically gratuitous nudity and sex in the first season, but it's been winding down as the show has become more popular

Poetic Justice posted:it's better than the books Yeah. First book was okay if only for its gimmick (people die a lot). It's a pretty good gimmick. Most people don't do it because killing off characters the audience care about is a good way to end up with a plot full of worthless poo poo-people, but it's still neat to have a story about a violent setting where people really can die. Then it just gets bogged down and slows to a crawl. Then the gimmick changes and it's suddenly all about "undermining your expectations", non-stop. You can pretty much hear the fat man who wrote it giggling in every paragraph. Bet you thought it was one way, but it's another. Bet you didn't see this coming. Haha, I tricked you! He just stops writing a story and starts playing assgrab with his fandom or something and it's impossible to give a poo poo. Then magic goes from being uncommon to hella overbearing and really ill-defined, because he needs to pull new magic out of his rear end for his latest expectation-subversion. The show is doomed. The books just get irredeemably bad.

The nudity and sex isnt even the point, the entire show is escapist pornography from dumb fetishization medieval culture to the list of 300 made up names for imaginary places

Bwee posted:Where do black people come from in the land of Game of Thrones According to book mythology they're descendants of the burn victims of the great war. That's why they're called "Dragon Crisps". Bwee posted:and why aren't there any that are main characters Because they're the only crisps GRRM doesn't like.

black people come from the summer isles and there's plenty of them in the books. HBO is just racist.

Moridin920 posted:black people come from the summer isles and there's plenty of them in the books. Basically this, too. Bwee posted:Haha does theshow have some weird obsession with eunuchs isn't that bald fat guy a eunuch It's even worse in the books every time any male character is hostage for even like half a minute someone's going to threaten him with gelding. Although tbpf the scene where the psycho pale kid cuts off the jerkoff kid's penis wasn't in the books, only implied. Moridin920 posted:*writes a fantasy book* "ugh what derivative schlock' Hahaha holy poo poo get a load of you.

Some elements of the show's writing don't really hold up to scrutiny, but overall it's really fun to watch/read.

Bwee posted:Ignoring the obvious problematic nature of "sexposition" and racism that is everpresent throughout the show, it is, in its very nature, a really poorly written D&D game made into an HBO series It's soooo hosed up that the white dude thinks badly about the other white dude because he's the wrong white dude. loving HBO.
