IS anyone really lying awake at night pining for a show about a cult of drug-addled church ladies in space who are really REALLY into eugenics?

IDK, personally I thought it was an interesting concept but they never really had the money or the space to pull off “colossal, terrifyingly powerful, infuriatingly bureaucratic cosmic Police force”. RTD’s original concept for The Shadow Proclamation in The Stolen Earth was epic and chaotic with every alien species…

Why it’s almost like that was method in the madness of making the Battle of Winterfell a literally grim-dark mess where you can’t really see how many “people” (extras or TV-grade CGI) are on the field or what they’re really doing.

I’m impressed you saw anything in that murky shit show.

Perfectly happy with the cut in the episode order if the quality control goes way up.  Bigger is better a lot less often than they’d have you believe.

Uh, I really doubt it. Martin hasn’t exactly been shy about lawyering up and suing people who don’t honor contracts, try to fuck him out of his due or try to insert themselves in his affairs when they’ve got no business to.

How exactly? This scenario makes precisely no sense because (not) sorry, Martin is right. A manuscript sitting in a drawer gathering dust is earning nobody nothing. And frankly I don’t think his publishers give two fucks together about HBO’s profits.

Thing is, Beth, you can back-fill any random grinding murderous plot token character lurch from anyone because well...Westeros is full of murderous shitheads who do terrible things for stupid reasons.

Wow, I’m honestly shocked how bad that was — everyone got idiot plotted and nothing that happened is properly set up or played off.

Do you go to the movies much? If it wasn’t for children and teenagers being incredibly stupid the horror movie as we kinow it wouldn’t exist.

And I’ve asked you repeatedly to try adding something to the conversation, or quit fucking trolling and get the hell out of my notifications.

Dude, do have any kind of counter argument to make or are you just working towards your Boy Scout “Internet Asshole” merit badge? You’ve got it - get lost.

Jesus, please be a little more condescending. I watch plenty of serialised television dramas; I even have no problems following very long films. I also really like watching comic book movies where I don’t need to be familiar with every damn nuance of 20+ full-length features produced over a decade to follow a…

Fair enough - I enjoyed it a lot in a ‘perfectly decent popcorn movie, and a damn sight more enjoyable than 99% of what’s coming out of Hollywood these days” kind of way.

In Endgame, did I hallucinate Rocket saying that Thanos’ snap put Earth at the center at a unimaginably huge burst of cosmic comnicbooium energy or something?  Yeah, I don’t think you should have to be intimately familiar with an entire decade-spanning franchise to make sense of a movie but at this point the good ship…

Well, I’d reverse the polarity on that question. What in the name of all the Gods - Old, New and Miscellaneous - was Daneyris expecting? She’s not stupid, but her raw sense of entitlement and the lack of good judgement that flows from it hasn’t done her any favours. For better and worse, Nedd went home after Robert’s…

OTOH, what I think is much more plausible is that Jamie intends to kill Cersei... but she kills him first.  At this point, does anyone seriously think being her incestuous baby-daddy is an immunity idol after you very publicly defied her and rode north?

Well. I think we can put a pin in Cersei then because the only thing you can rely on her to do is over-play her hand because she’s too busy gloating and spite-fucking over everyone around her to be smart.. Oh, well... at least she’s run out of children to get killed when one of her schemes goes horribly wrong. Oh,…

Honestly, it really pissed me off - I love the character of Brienne but it’s really grossed me out how so much of her story has been pulled into the black hole of suck that is Jamie’s bullshit “redemption arc”.  Of course, this being the show that introduced “sexposition” to the English language he of course has to be…

Nope - remember the meeting last season in King’s Landing where Cersei played him like a cheap fiddle?  She told him she was pregnant.
