>>38415809
I get the "i'm a nerd lol" vibe, when they talk about this shit.
>>
Lol are you fucking mad white boy? Sorry you're too much of a brainlet to understand complex drama.
>>
>>38415809
Because they're told that they should like it. I can't believe that you browse this board and still can't figure this out by yourself.
>>38415939
>70% of all deaths are from getting stabbed in the back
>somehow the characters always end up getting saved just as they're about to die (probably not a single main character on the show that this hasn't happened to)
>complex drama
hahah faggot
>>
>>38416427
>getting baited this easily
God I hate retards
>>
>>38415939

i know you're baiting but the fact that there are probably normans out there who think GoT is complex is hilarious
>>
>>38415809
Because it's made for normies
>>
>>38416427
lmao you're probably too stupid to understand the plot so you prefer shit shows like the walking dead
>>
>>38416427
dumbass actually took the bait wew

This is a totally reasonable show if you enjoy high fantasy and political drama. It's not nearly as good as the books, but it's better than most of the trash on television. Why do you faggots have such a blanket hate anything popular? Why do you have such an intense need to maintain a 'weird' identity that prevents you from liking any of the same things that most people do?
>>
>>38415809
>tfw only watch YouTube clips of GOT

How are the books?
>>
>>38416882
Shit. They're shit entry level genre fiction for plebs.
Not as bad as the show, mind. But still shit.
>>
>>38416971
How are the books shit? Bad writing?

Just out of curiosity what's r9ks opinion on the following:

Player Unknowns battlegrounds
Popular music artists (e.g. daft punk)
Popular movies
>>
>>38417038
>Player Unknowns battlegrounds
Good but runs like shit
>Popular music artists (e.g. daft punk)
some are good some bad, daft punk is good
>Popular movies
same as above

>Sunset found her squatting in the grass, groaning. Every stool was looser than the one before, and smelled fouler. By the time the moon came up she was shitting brown water. The more she drank, the more she shat, but the more she shat, the thirstier she grew, and her thirst sent her crawling to the stream to suck up more water.
>Her cunt became the world.

>The ship groaned and growled beneath him like a constipated fat man straining to shit."
>>
>>38417038
I'm not an r9k cynic, but here's the deal with popular media:

Most of it's bad, the stuff that isn't bad is pretty entry-level. And that's okay. No one has the time to get into the deep tracks of every obscure genre or watch 3 hour art films all the time (except for, you know, NEET kissless virgins who spend 24/7 online).

It's okay to enjoy entry-level things. It's okay to enjoy bad things. Try not to judge others so much for what they enjoy.
>>
>>38417038
No opinion because I have no interest in any of those.
>>
>>38417108
Honestly I enjoy GRRM's silly inventive analogies. What kind of books do you read, anon?
>>
>>38417020
The writing really isn't that great. Once Martin realized he had a cash cow he started extending everything out to the point where he can't finish it
It just gets hyped up because "muh dark gritty fantasy"
>>
the first 4 seasons are entertaining and then it went to shit. after reading the leaks, this season will be even worse than season 5
>>
>>38417108
kek
truly the shakeshapre for a new age
>>38415809
HBO realized men would watch a soap opera if they put swords and dragons in it
>>
>>38417295
All sorts, I just like shitting on GURM because I'm an elitist cunt and his writing is really pretty atrocious.
I'm currently reading some Bret Easton Ellis.

>>38417301
It's fucking high fantasy, jesus christ. It doesn't have to be Tolstoy. There's good worldbuilding, trope-bending, and lots of subtext. What the fuck are you really trying to get out of a genre like this?
>>
>>38416823
that's a pretty good question

that I don't have an answer to

>i luv GoT so muchhh

>omg the books r so bad i dont understand anything xd
>>
>>38417038
>Player Unknowns battlegrounds
Looks fun but i have no friends i could play it with.
>Popular music artists
I don't think i like any popular current artist.
>Popular movies
I watch and enjoy movies that are popular.

i'm not really sure what you are expecting from a fantasy book. tolkien couldn't write for shit either and he's considered the pinnacle of fantasy

You're right, GoT is really fantastic modern TV drama and deserves most of its popularity. Almost any other TV show/movie/anime you could watch has less depth and nuance than GoT anyway, so it's incredibly silly to act as if one watches all this other deeper or more intellectual stuff. And I've consumed a LOT of TV over the years.
>>
>>38415809
What >>38415930 said, and the fact that for people that are only used to mainstream and trendy things, the show comes up as edgy.
>>
>>38417038

H1Z1 #2

>popular music artists
shit 99.99% of the time. daft punk is good though (unless their last album ofc). i mainly listen to indie people on bandcamp that don't event have their music uploaded on youtube

>popular movies
i don't watch / event know popular movies anymore. last big """hit""" i heard about was star wars 8, which i did not see
>>
>>38417541
The only good season is the first one, it goes to deep shit past that.
>>
>>38415809
the more she drank the more she shat

>>38417537
Fuck you nigger fucking niggers
>>
>>38417108
His writing is okay if you edit out all the sex scenes.
>>
>>38416823
Thank you for having a reasonable opinion about the show because it actually is the only good fantasy series out there. Most faggots on this board hate it for some reason. The world is good, it has depth, and the series has a lot of theory crafting
>>
>>38417735
No, his writing is bearable if you edit out everything about sex or shitting.
But then you'd be reading a shitty 200 page novel that fails at being The Accursed Kings.
>>
>>38417541

I get the impression everyone just watches it for the artsy erotica that just makes you feel uncomfortable.
>>
>>38417737
it's degentere as crap
>>38417768
this.
>>
>>38417889
Idgaf if it has degenerate qualities, the plot captures you, you get invested in characters, and talking about theories is really fun. It's a well made book and show series in general.
>>
>>38418032
Show is literally fan fiction after season 5
>>
>>38418032
so are soap operas, but no one pretends they are high drama
>>
>>38418090
This isn't true whatsoever
>>38418113
Yes it has drama. I feel like most of you haven't even watched it or read it
