It doesn't even feel the same, like they're reading off teleprompters or something. Mostly the Daneris and Cersei scenes. Oh and the last one where Jon decides to go south, holy fuck that was bad.

I feel like I'm watching a high school play so far this season. What say you /tv/?
>>
>>85465428
Everything is substantially worse than seasons 1-4, but I've been watching for six years, so I'm gonna see it through to the end, regardless.

I almost couldn't believe what I was watching when snekbitch said "A foreign invasion is underway" or whatever. Compare that to shit like Varys and Littlefinger trading barbs in the throne room in the early seasons. It's just sad.

I think GoT in general is just shitty now. The show was better in the earlier seasons of 1 and 2, it was interesting, they had interesting characters and awesome actors. Now I dunno, it's just lame and instead the show is filled with the exact opposite.
>>
It's the difference between saying quietly to someone sitting across the table from you that you're going to cut their throat, and shouting loudly in a throne room that you're going to CUT HIS HEART OUT WITH A SPOON.

The actors are not portraying emotional discord anymore. That said we're doing pretty good on crazy. Euron is gr8.

Yeah I don't fucking get it. Suddenly this show is making me cringe so hard every other minute. I don't know if it's the sudden bad acting or the "lesbian girl power!!" "men are all awkward weirdos!".

I fucking loved the first few seasons of this show. Did it actually change, or have I just grown more conservative?
>>
that is what it happens when you kill all the good characters.

Every scene where the acting is bad it is because the point of the scene is to show how Jon snow reacts to X, or how Daenerys reacts to X, all the horrible scenes are "Character sitting in throne trying to speak to it's vassals", and when every vassal is a no name stock big guy, it gets dull.
>>
All the good actors are dead.

Kit Harington is awful Sophie Turner is awful. Maisie Williams is awful. Emilia Clarke is awful. Richard Madden was really the only one in that bunch that was any good.

Peter Dinklage is good, horrible fake accent, guess he can't really help that.

Any other good actors have minor roles now.

I think you should go back and watch the last 2 seasons; if anything the younger cast members have improved. Acting quality overall may have still gone down just because they keep killing the best-acted characters.

His horrible overacting?

You are thinking of Charles Dance, Sean Bean, and Michelle Fairley, anon
>>
>>85465428
It's because the character logic isn't there, and it leads you feeling as if it were artificial:

>CIA telling Jon he wants to fuck sis
>Sansa spreading dissent with open questioning
>Jon telling his people he doesn't want to be King, oblivious to the fact that he should have figured out Little Finger is planning to do something
> Euron teleporting right ontop of Yara's ship
> Random lesbian scene to pad things out
> Jorah conveniently located in the tower fat boy is training at
> A giant crossbow is revealed as the secret dragon killing weapon
> The snake girls can't sell a fight scene at all so it lowers believability

Probably missing some points.

Kit and Richard are on the same spectrum of shit acting, one just overreacts while the other has no reaction.

Joffrey and Theon were the only good actors

I watched season 1-6 in two weeks total, and the drop in quality from 1-4 to 5-6 is insane. Aside from it just being pure filler, it's also badly acted filler at that.

I'm still gonna watch it through but the difference is unreal, it's actually bad now whereas it used to be one of the best shows

the cast and crew are just waiting for their paychecks at this point. nobody really gives a shit. the plebs will cheer like it's a sporting event regardless of whether it's good or not.

All the good actors have either had their characters killed off or been relegated to spectators watching the plot armoured adventures of Jon and Dany. Now the focus is on characters that are both badly written and badly acted, amplifying the impact of each.

get da fuuuuuk outta here.

The blame isn't fully on the actors (even though they're totally phoning it in, they know they're irreplaceable).

The writers and directors are to blame with the shitty story arcs and wild changes to how characters react to situations. I expect this to happen when they past the books but I didn't think it would be this bad.

As someone who was born and grew up roughly where kit Harrington is from and then moved up to Hull (the north) his fake accent when he's trying to be serious is so shit it hurts. it seems to have gotten worse as the show progressed

>>85468861
Mostly this.
They played it good. They hired the great, expensive actors for the roles that were going to die either soon or at least before they run out of material. Those actors were the ones that carried the weight of the show. Had they hire someone like Kit Harington to play Ned this show would've never made it past Season 1.
Right now, a few minor roles disregarding, most of the actors that are left are horrible. But the fanbase is already huge, and at this point most of us want to see how it ends.
>>
>>85474460
It was ok but there was too much ass sex for me to continue watching it. Of course that was back when most shows didn't have sodomy in them.
>>
Maybe it's because when the show started they didn't know how big it would become so they got one high profile actor to play the character who gets killed off in the first season? For budget reasons?
I still think a lot of the season one cast is fine. Kit only truly struggles when the writing is bad like when it's a D+D written episode. Alfie Allen has done a good job throughout. Peter never gets good dialogue or scenes anymore.
It's what happens when a shows drags on for this many seasons. Everyone gets complacent and lazier. For all this talk of a TV golden age, no one has really mastered how to make a show consistently good for 6+ seasons, otherwise we'd see more shows like that.

>>85474354
I might have gone a bit overboard with the Sopranos. Could've used a bit of trimming though.
I thought the season 2 finale of the shield was the best. The shield and soa just came stale to me after a while. So many episodes were just turncoat events and then explaining to the crew why this new direction is better than the old even though it's the complete opposite. Which was the opposite of the direction before that to begin with. Repeat ad nauseam. Breaking bad suffers the same problem but to a lesser extent. You just can't do that shit and stay immersive for seven seasons. You see it coming a mile of, and it's fucking boring. But I'm writing from what I remember, So I might be wrong. It's just a general feeling I got watching these shows.

>>85465428
I've got a theory to delude myself into thinking the show is still good :

Danaery's war council is only constituted of politicians who don't know shit about war. Grey Worm is the only real warrior in there but no one cares about what he has to say and he doesn't know shit about Westeros anyway. Yara and the Iron Borns are notorious for being shit at land warfare, they only do raids.

During the war council scene, the only people talking are Danaerys, Tyrion, Varys, the Dornian woman, the Tyrell grand-ma. They're all politicians not military men and it shows. They take the decisions to make themselves look good in front of the population rather than achieve military objectives. Here are examples :
>send the Unsullied across the continent to Castral Rock when the Tyrell army is right next to it
>Send the Tyrell army across the continent to siege King's Landing when the unsullieds and dragons are right next to it because it'd be bad for their Public Image
>send Yara's fleet to Dorne when they know that Euron controls the seas (reminder Yara and Theon were fleeing from him)
>lay siege to King's Landing eventhough the city is by the sea and they don't control the seas

So really it shows that Dany's is surrounded by competent politicians but shit military strategists. Despite her superior army and Dragons she'll get destroyed and never sit on the Iron Throne because she doesn't know how to wage a war. It'll mirror Robb's war since Robb was an excellent military strategist but a shit politician.

It's almost as if without books to base the show on, it sucks.
I dont blame them though, George RR Martin is a lazy fuck

That's not the point. The point is that it was presented as the pinnacle of Qyburn arts, which is retarded

they've realised that no matter how shit it is people will still lap it up so they've stopped trying

This show since the beginning usually functions the same way. Make a character commit an unspeakable crime, so then he'll suffer a horrible fate.
So far the only one that got along with his way is Littlefinger.
But you have Theon betraying the Starks and killing random kids. What happens? He gets justice on the hands of Ramsay, is tortured and castrated.
Ramsay gets justice on the hands of Sansa. But since Sansa simply made justice against that guy and nothing else wrong she's safe so far.
Same will happen with this. The sand snakes and Oberyn's gf committed and unspeakable crime (killing an innocent girl and her innocent lover) so they are getting their due. Eventually Euron will get his due too, and so will Cersei and perhaps Jamie.

2bf you're bound to get that with a TV show like this with that amount of actors, most of who were previously used to bit-part/small roles

Was still a bit dissapointed though. It had such an awesome premise: chemistry teacher gets cancer, wants his wife and children to lead a comfy life after his death so he starts making drugs. When A friend sold me the show, I thought it was the most original idea I'd heard in a long time. And it was a fresh show, but I would've liked it if they approached it in the same way they approached The Wire, if that makes sense.

I'm mad the entire "sane side of Dorne" aspect got aborted.

As others have said all the good actors are dead. Even the ones that are still alive can't bring anything good to the show because of the absolutely cringeworthy dialogue and script. Just listen to Tyrion or Varys in the last episode and compare them to their banters in season 2.

And in the first seasons the bad actors could pull a line competently enough because of the good script and good directing. Emilia Clarke isn't a good actor but at least the directors knew how to utilise her.

Basically it's a mixture of bad actors, awful script and terrible directing.

the first few seasons offer a truly fantastic setup that feels like it's going places. the disappointment sets in when you realize that it's never going to actually follow through on the great setup with anything of note. seasons 1-4 are fantastic, but 5-7 turn into the most schlocky generic fantasy drivel possible. At this point I'm rooting for the antagonists to win because absolutely fuck everything this show has become. Burn it to the fucking ground.

between this and berserk both blueballing me by turning into generic shit I'm actually contemplating writing my own medieval fantasy where shit goes south and then proceeds to actually go south. As it stands I haven't found any of these stories that are sold as being dark to actually fit the bill.

would you guys read something like that described as having a grounded story with believable and ambiguous characters where good doesn't necessarily triumph over evil without a heavy cost? Something impactful, that feels hardfought?

i dont know about varys ever having really great bantz, but tyrion for sure. He used to have solid dialogue writing but since like S5 or S4 hes been boring as fuck.
>>
season 4 is where the rot set in. right from the opening you can tell something major has changed. 1-3 absolute high grade tv though.

>>85476120
You want Dany to look like a downy?

Tyrion used to be good before he became hand of Eyebrows. Now he has taken a back seat to her stupid campaign.

GoT was always shit tier you were just too much of a kid to realize it.

I mean the first season was decent if only for the novelty of a gritty fantasy show but season 2 it went completely to shit and devolved in a neckbeard version of a soap opera (which ironically is a perfectly apt description of the books)

There were fucking ballistas on the stannis invasion fleet during the battle of blackwater, so treating them like some radical new weapon is completely retarded.

Now if they invented one that could auto-reload and therefore pump out a far higher rate of fire, that might be a legit advancement that would threaten a dragon

Dany has been acting this poorly since forever.
Keeping the plot "moving" at King's landing is obviously the hardest shithole in the writing right now and the scenes show it.

None of it is unexpected.
I didn't expect the dickless sex scene. I ain't afraid of the SJW boogeyman like some are, but that scene gave me genuine chills.
