Should be able to get through it, seasons aren’t that long. How many episodes in a row you usually doing? I did the same thing with Prison break, but those seasons are like 24 episodes long!

dain11279 926 Posted April 10, 2019 Only have the season 7 finale left. Might watch it right before the premiere Sunday night if I can hold out that long I pretty much have been able to keep up with everything that's going on although I think when I watch the second time around I'll pick up a lot more. Shame there's only 7 episodes left. This show is the focking GOAT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For every John Snow or Dragon Queen, there are a few average joes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldMaid 1,838 Posted April 15, 2019 Dear god, it’s been ages since I posted in this thread... I was super annoyed at George RR Martin for his lack of progress on the books, and tried to swear off the show, but of course, I lacked the willpower to stop watching. Liked the new opening credits. I need to go back and rewatch them, frame-by-frame, as I feel there’s possibly some clues hidden in them. Otherwise, pretty solid first episode. My highlights: Got a little misty eyed by the Jon/Bran reunion. And I loved having all the "Starks” back together in Winterfell. Jon riding a dragon! Interestingly enough, it’s the one named after his true father Rhaegar Targaryen. Jamie/Bran stare down, at the end. Can’t wait to see how the Kingslayer gets out of this one. Not to mention he killed Danny’s father. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peenie 1,690 Posted April 15, 2019 When Jamie and Bran stared at one another: Me: I wonder what Bran sees? Why is he staring at him so hard? Why is Jamie looking at him like that? They never even met right? Then everyone on the room yelled at me in unison. I completely forgot! I wonder if this is the first time they've worked together in years. Probably most of them have never been on the same set like this in years. Glad my man Tormund is alive and well. I don't like how perfectly everyone is in Winterfell, but glad nonetheless. Like how did Varys get there? When did Brianne get there? Everyone and their Momma is in Winterfell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sderk 1,040 Posted April 15, 2019 Game of Thrones is racist. https://www.publicmedievalist.com/game-thrones-racism-problem/ Game of Thrones doesn’t just have a “diversity problem,” it has a racism problem. The casting and the lack of well-developed characters of colour that attract most critical attention are the visible tip of the iceberg of racism that lies under the surface of the show. That iceberg doesn’t just reflect the race problems of modern-day America, it reflects white privilege and a racist Eurocentric way of thinking about the world that goes back to the Middle Ages.

Kind of like the opposite where Cher wants illegals in the country but no illegals in her hometown L.A. because they have homeless and can't take care of them, but Cher herself doesn't have homeless in her home and doesn't want any illegals in her personal space..
