Mat Cauthon posted:Yeah it's not just reddit/SA/etc, a lot of people are disappointed with how this season has gone down. There was no way to satisfy every one but they've done a good job of burning a lot of good will. This is probably the reason D&D have been spending the past year saying the ending won't please everyone. It's not a statement about where the story goes but preempting criticism about the quality.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Who would she parley with? Anyone and everyone who runs the 7 kingdoms after the show if she wins? The idea that after the story ends, everything will be chill is even dumber than my posts. That is the last possible thing this fantasy suggests She'll be the queen afterwards, you dolt. She won't need to parley with her vassals, she'll summon them to the throne if she wants to talk to them. You didn't "read" the rest because even you can't think up reasons why it's not terrible writing. It's fine if you personally enjoy lovely writing, but your attempts to convince people it's actually good are laughable. Good zing though, you go back to whatever boring poo poo you do too. I have no clue who you are

Last Kingdom frustrated me because I despised Uhtred by the third season, but Wolf Hall looks good. Vikings I’ve wanted to watch but can’t find the Swedish original version anywhere Black Sails is new to me and looks like Frontier which was good...enough so I’ll check it out, thanks

If you haven't liked The Last Kingdom you'll probably dislike Vikings as well, cause Uthred is kinda Ragnar 2.0. Black Sails is only 4 seasons long and has managed to scratch the period piece+intrigue+pulp hitch I had.

nooneofconsequence posted:I keep watching because I know it has an end. Comparatively, I stopped watching The Walking Dead years ago. like eight years ago there were all these shows that people described as the platinum era of television and talked about things like we were entering some kind of cinematic renaissance. since then all of those shows became/have become baffling ordeals with like, a barely coherent sense of their own narrative and characterization. TWD, Dexter, Game of Thrones, uh, I'm sure there are some other examples but those are three of the inexcusable ones. it happened really early too, i stopped watching TWD at the end of season 3 because the gunfight was just too much (I was surprised to discover it was lifted straight from the comics when I read them this year) and recently tried to watch the fourth season. i had to fast forward through huge parts of it because like 70% of the show is inconsequential dialogue in too-dark rooms, 20% is walking in the woods, and 10% is extremely implausible action (which were the only parts really worth watching). how did all of these shows go so bad so quickly after making so much money? i guess Breaking Bad ended well at least That Italian Guy posted:Black Sails starts a bit slow but grows a lot; Vikings is probably the opposite. If you haven't liked The Last Kingdom you'll probably dislike Vikings as well, cause Uthred is kinda Ragnar 2.0. cool, thanks. i actually really like anything set in an underrepresented historical period, since most historical drama is predictably generic and eurocentric. unfortunately usually that means authenticity (nevermind accuracy which is less important) kinda goes out the window, what i really want is a show that treats a non-european setting with the kind of seriousness european medieval dramas often get. but pirates and fur traders are an acceptable substitute Frog Act fucked around with this message at 23:20 on May 7, 2019 |

Starks posted:It’s important to remember that the disappointment of the fourth book turned a bunch of people into internet hate-wraiths who actively told more people to read the books, slowly pushing them towards the same hopeless wrath that they felt during hundreds of pages about darkstar and Doran. Now that the show is insanely popular, GRRM actually found a way to spread this sickness into the real world by manipulating the low iq D&D into botching their own show, infecting everyone from blue checkmarks on twitter to the nice old lady at your office. He won’t finish the books and when he dies the true long night will descend upon us, the death of pop culture. Haven’t I seen you around my college holding signs about the end of the world

It's medieval Korea + politics + zombies, so it seems like it might scratch a Game of Thrones itch.

Black Sails is absolute trash (outside a handful of scenes) and nobody should ever watch it e: loving land pirates barely ever leave Nassau. One or two seasons into Black Sails they realized their machiavellian main guy was a completely unlikeable, backstabbing, friend murdering, crew killing piece of poo poo lying murderer and they try to clumsily, hamfistedly jam in this motivation that is absolutely laugh out loud pathetic Delthalaz fucked around with this message at 23:39 on May 7, 2019 |

I liked it better than Frontier - that was mentioned by the OP - and they are kinda similar in several ways.
