I don't get the fuz about GoT. They've got a fantasy universe, knights, monsters, and every scene, even when it involves a full army walking in the background, is the regular "Why did you cheat on me?/I don't wanna discuss with my mother/we were best friends/and the like" dialogue that we get in ANY tv show from Mad Men to Sex In The City, from Dexter to True Blood. What's the point is spending that much money on a Dungeons & Dragons universe to just do a very very regular tv show?
The worst thing about GoT is that it's addictive. Not-so-good and addictive: makes you feel like a moron.
Game of Thrones: Season 1 - 6/10Really not that impressive. Decent entertainment. HBO's Boardwalk Empire is the far superior series.
But making one addictive is a sign of quality.
I wouldn't say so. Soap operas can be addictive and I wouldn't call them quality TV. In my eyes, GoT is a soap opera.But just to make it clear: I'd rate the show around 7.5/10 maybe 8/10. So it's not total bullshit. It just makes me feel dumb every time I watch it.
Five Easy Pieces - 9/10 - Easily Jack Nicholson's best performance. The rest of the film's pretty good, too.
Niagara 9/10
