welshbairn Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I binge watched the first 4 series then got bored with the 5th and stopped watching. Worth getting back into it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 The later series are not bad just nothing like as good as the earlier ones, which were often close to being masterpieces. If you found the 5th series boring because it was too slow paced, you might find the next few better again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth getting back into it?AyeThe 5th and 6th are still good. 7th and 8th are just rushed which makes them not as good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmen Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 No matter what they did with this series people would be complaining. With the 2 years between the final series’ it has built it up and up and they were never going to be able to deliver on people’s expectations.Me? I’ve enjoyed it, but then I appreciate it is only a TV program. The only thing that’s annoyed me was the iron fleet battle bringing down the dragon and only kidnapping 1 person. After the battle the week before this one was felt with in less than 5 mins including travelling back to kings landing.I’m looking forward to tonight’s program, I want to see how they finish it. Part of me what’s it to be Sam reading a book because people will really lose their heads over it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoonTon Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 4 hours ago, Christophe said: Um yeah, pretty clear insinuation that she wasn’t pregnant at that point Really? She says at the end, "I want our baby to live." There's no indication that she was lying to Jamie when she first told him, and no indication that they conceived at a later time. Or did I miss something? They've made a huge world seem incredibly small. It's like Tyrion telling Dany that Euron's fleet could be anywhere round a vast sea, but then Dany traveling half the continent in no time at all to rescue those beyond the wall. Which makes it even sillier that no-one went to check for an ambush on their last return to Dragonstone, which is relatively very close to King's Landing. I've been very good at ignoring these things, but it really has undermined things a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I'll miss reading the leaks and live episode discussions of this season. They've been just as entertaining as the show. Surprising how accurate the leaks have been considering this season was supposed to be locked down like Fort Knox. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Spose in the interest of perspective it’s worth remembering most people found AFFC and ADWD majorly disappointing too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 The books are definitely heavy going in places, such as the Slavers' Bay, Iron Islands and Dorne content. I suspect a much tighter focus on only the King's Landing-Riverlands-Winterfell-Knight's Watch portions of the story would have been appreciated by most readers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I’d imagine trying to read the leaks and spoilers would devalue the actual show, given by that point you’d have completely burnt any kind of suspense and twist value. What a bizarre thing to do! And further more to actually complain about! Edited May 19, 2019 by Christophe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bizarre thing to do! And further more to actually complain about! Like how if you've read the books would devalue the show? And complain about what, that there are leaks. More surprised that there were given how tight security was supposed to be this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
