Have you tried politics?

I definitely felt like it was the weakest of the Netflix series, but I didn't really feel the hate. I know a lot of people were shit talking the second half of Luke Cage too, but the Netflix series have all just increased in popularity as they go.

I don't really know how much good will or momentum have to do with it, as others have pointed out casual fans don't even know which is which. When DC makes good movies they do as well as Marvel.

There's really no reason at all that WW wouldn't make more. GoTG are supposed to be a niche property. The comic book was constantly on the edge of being cancelled and went through multiple series that only lasted a few years before the movie came out.

That is like the epitome of the wrong format.

I heard Iron Fist was the most successful Netflix show so far. People watched it.

Marvel has still made more money at the box office with Guardians of the Galaxy than DC has with Wonder Woman. Imagine trying to explain that to a comic book fan 15 years ago.

Yeah, they want a catalogue of bingable shows so large that if you wanted to you couldn't binge them all in a single month. By the time these Marvel shows get through their second season they'll pretty much be there, and the extra three episodes per season will be like 30 episodes.

That's never been a problem for anybody.

Cruelty is an impulse, Jaime is just committed to a bad side. And it's not like the other side are saints. I still expect Jaime to wake up to the evil he's involved in, though if he had done it earlier in the story he would be far more sympathetic. I don't think he's a good person by any stretch, but he's always given

He fucked up both of those things beyond any repair like five seasons ago though.

I suppose a big part of it is that Jaime has never really been a cruel or unlikable person in the course of the story. He's done bad things, but the only time he really seems like a bad person is in the pilot when he pushes Bran before we know him or have any sympathy for him.

It's easier when you actually pay contractors.

The second response is a dishwasher job at Mar-a-Lago.

I don't really have any hope for Jaime, but I still expect he'll be the one who kills Cersei so he can't die yet. He's seemed to be right at the breaking point for seasons.

Yeah, that part of the review seemed weird to me. The only good thing Theon has ever done is finally realize what a piece of shit he was, and that only happened after he got tortured into it.

I think the problem with that is that forcing the dragons to not do their dragon thing is a death sentence, albeit maybe a slow one.

The state monopolizes force, but it isn't supposed to be a purely destructive force that can only really survive by ravaging the countryside. Unsuitability to peace time was why the dragons died out before.

They may not have any place in the world after the Long Winter ends, but they have to make it that far before that becomes a concern.

It looked like that was what Littlefinger was thinking.
