or henry cavill

Took a peek at the cast, Maggie Q is in this

just finished GOT the first time thru. I’m ready for this s***

"Episode 1 of #HouseoftheDragon seen in cinemas. A full scoop of #GoT trademarks: politics, sex, juicy violence, hard-to-enjoy violence, intrigue, well-known houses, regalia, power struggles, dragons. A hopeful & a little too vigorous return to Westeros"

Promo kicked in real crazy for this over the last couple days

Nah it's cringe stuff, especially when the characters description matters to the story like in GOT where stuff like lineage is super important. These guys are supposed to be pale with white hair, a black person with white dreads just looks out of place and stupid let's be honest. Feels like they're just pandering to a certain audience.

Comissioner Gordon in the latest batman being black for example doesn't matter imo the character is just supposed to be a cop

I’m excited for this ngl. Have no clue what it’s about besides it focusing on the Targaryen dynasty tho

I think I heard they cover 30 years in this one season

Going to be interesting

So hyped 😩🔥🐲

is the og show really as good as people say ?

Yeah

Seasons 1-5 comfortably are absolutely amazing, never seen anything remotely close to them in terms of scale (movies or tv) before. Acting, directing, special effects, sets, etc all top notch.

I know a lot of people feel like it falls off after season 5, but I personally didn’t feel any fall off during season 6 and 7, still absolutely loved it.

Season 8 though…yikes. You’re gonna be hard pressed to find anyone that likes the end.

But again, the journey and the grandeur of it all is so amazing regardless.

Some of the best character and world building in any television series ever

You'll hear from a million people that the ending was trash. It was rushed for sure but I think people overstate how bad it is

If the author of the books actually knew how to finish the story the show would've been much better off. But both he and the showrunners ran into the issue of having a very concrete ending set from the beginning of the show and allowing the characters to develop organically, so some things towards the end feel off

im sorry but the ending is absolutely as bad as people say it is.

Hated that s***

If you were following it on a week to week basis, then yeah, the reaction to DO will be more visceral than of someone who binged it. Or maybe time heals all wounds, looking back. That ending is garbage tho and deserves all the hate and apathy it got

If they stuck the landing it would be the greatest show ever easily. That being said it’s still a top 2-3 show ever which says everything lol

Binging definitely helps. Did a rewatch last year and I found myself being pretty okay with everything that happens towards the end. There's actually a bit more setup for it than I thought, especially in the earlier seasons.

Second half of the final Episode is still the worst s*** I've ever seen tho.

It doesn’t matter in both instances.

my exact sentiments

I got this and the lord of rings release dates mixed up. Wanted to do a full GoT rewatch before this came out

Better get going lol

This comes out Sunday

Thought the review embargo was supposed to lift today? Guess not

Maybe it’s tomorrow
