Let me think about... the "Game of Thrones"

Usually rather popular things are thought to have no hidden meaning or rather good things are not popular enough.  I`m going to take sometimes some of them for a discussion.


The Fourteenth - "The Sopranos of the Medieval". Monologue on the "Game of Thrones" series.


I don`t like it.  I didn`t almost from the start and I`m not going to watch the 2nd season. What don`t I like what other people do? Let`s see...




1) Sean Bean. I haven`t seen him for a lot time, so decided to watch only because he was starring here. But he was killed in the end of the very frirst season, so why would I watch further? He just introduced the cast and left us making acquaintances with them.

2) Fantasy. The genre is very popular in Russia, lots of Russians read russian and foreign fantasy books. Besides this series is made by a book too, so you may proudly say, that you watch a screening version.
I can`t say that I don`t like fantasy, but this kind of series is really endless: they can continue the story with the characters, then with their children, then with their grandsons and so on. But when you watch CSI for example, you don`t have to remember everyrthing that happend before, as every other episode has its own story. To be short, I prefer double-lined series to one-lined.

3) Sex. A lot of. There really is. You can make a porn movie of several scenes of the first episode. Which pose do you like? Mm.. with parthes of one gender or both? Oh, if you still didn`t saw the pose №6, be sure, it might be in the next season. Just wait.
Right, this is just not a family movie. I didn`t mean I like only family movies. It`s just... You know, I still feel a bit nervous while watching a sex scene in a film, especially when I watch it with my parents. Even if the couple is covered with a blanket or something like that. Here you might won`t see a... mm... cock, but deffinetely with see everything else.
I`m very-very dissapointed. This is a big disadvantage for me.

4) HBO. I`ve heard a lot good about the studio already. It`s like a sign of quality. Series such as "Sex and the City" is world known, others might be familiar to you too: True blood, The Sopranos, Rome, Boardwalk Empire etc. and all has critic`s reiting over 8 and 9. But they are all so... correct, so popular that it makes me sick. The series of HBO just bore me after a few seasons. The same thing is with MadMen for me: a lot of history links, beautiful decorations, magnificent Christina Hendricks, but you`re just tired of all that after some time... Actually, I`d like to take a look on "The Newsroom", heard about it by the radio.
