not difficult to follow but I found episode three both too dark (especially watching it on a laptop) and a tad unrealistic and over the top. Ok I know none of it is realistic but none of it stacked up really at times. Still loved it though. Was pleased to see who the hero of the hour turned out to be though. One of my favourite characters (Without giving anything away).
I have a feeling the last three episodes will be a good conclusion though then you can go and watch the entire thing again as I suspect there will be loads of stuff we all missed or didnt get first time around. Im trying to persuade Mrs D to watch a couple of episodes of the first season, see if she would get into it.
Seeing as all the people I know seem to think it's the dogs, I set it up on Virgin last night, got settled in to watch episode one series one, and we have to pay for it, err, no chance, so deleted the series link
But the build up of the stories of the families , the books are brilliant , G R R Martin
The wolves from the Beginning you would love as their lives are woven amongst the children of one family, found as abandoned pups and linked to each child and sorrow when the wolves die as a result of intrigue and an omen to their owners
Only two left now
The last episode was very much like the the battle in Lord Of the Rings
As light relief you could watch How to train your Dragon
Toothless is fantastic
I watched lord of the rings, the whole series, when my eldest grandson was younger,
Gained much kudos as I'd read the books and knew all the characters , J .R. Tolkien
And now he's 22, and sometimes arrives out of the blue to spend the night , and suggest we watch lord of the rings together , memories
But start with The Hobbits , film or book
Or not
I love fantasy, dragons
And there are no unicorns in Game of Thrones Barry
Couldn't possibly watch or read anything like that, although I did watch a couple of Harry Potter films a few years ago with a little girl and her Mum when they stayed here otherwise I wouldn't dream of watching it.
Funny that. I was just thinking of doing a rock cover of the theme tune this afternoon. Mind you I did Hawaii Five O the other week and it was a bit naff.
I thought the finale (if it can be called that) was shockingly bad and I see that many critics have said the same. I'm adding my name to the petition for a re-make to be done. To think that I've spent eight years watching it for that load of sentimental nonsense to be broadcast upsets me greatly!
I wouldn't say shockingly bad but definately disappointing, Jon Snow should have been King of the world! The finale clearly leaves it open for many spin offs, Aria becoming Christopher Columbus etc
It was bound to a bad finale. Firstly pressured by the networks no doubt to ensure it was finished in a rush (£15m per episode?) . Secondly written by writers who had no knowledge of how GRRM intended the ending to happen as he’d not yet written it. I can’t wait to get the final book. Disappointed as it was poorly written.
I think the problem is after such an epic and fantastic series the ending was never going to be satisfactory but I guess it had to end. 8 seasons is a long run for any top series. A spin off or a prequel would be good though. Like Kays idea.
