I haven't seen Game of Thrones, but from what I've read I gather its some sort of misogynistic gang-rape fantasy that Elliot Rodger would have enjoyed.
SPOILER WARNING: Prestige Television Discussion
No ggw, that is not correct.
If I was you I would suggest actually watching it, and not forming an opinion based on internet articles.
There ARE rape scenes.
Their society IS misogynistic.
But isn't our own society that way?
Wasnt it WAY worse during the dark ages?

Women are not allowed to be knights. Wow much misogyny.
Sounds like feudal England, or modern day USA.
Should a fantasy author be limited to the social norms of our society?
What about Sci-Fi works?

I haven't seen it either. I don't like fantasy and I don't like that midget guy so I have never given it a chance. I feel out of place on here as I don't like boring cable dramas and don't eat bacon.

Women aren't allowed to be knights in modern day USA?
Do we have knights in the USA?
Are you a knight?

the knights of columbus
I like it, my friend told me how book 4 ended… or how this season ends. However that works… I was kind of indifferent to this season until I found out the different ways this season COULD end and they're all pretty awesome. Everything with The Wall is friggin boring. Weren't they on the verge of attack at the end of last season? Did I miss something?
Anyway. I like it.
Anyway. I like it.
How about that timely Vice episode regarding forgotten vets… poor guys.
the one thing i would love about game of thrones, besides if nobody ever called it g.o.t. anymore, would be, the fact, if i, could undestand, half of the shit they are saying. and their decolletage, is distracting.

NO the USA doesnt have knights. We do have military forces though. And until recently women could NOT be Special Forces, or Infantry. Also I doubt there are many, if any, women currently serving as Green Berets; Navy Seals; Marine Force Recon; or Air Force combat controllers.

walky, I will say this. After seeing every single episode, I still only know the names of about three characters.
Do you at least know all of the familial names of the various factions?

Yes… familial names is all about all I know and Khaleesi.
Does this show discussion belong in the nerd thread?

I can spell zero character names. I think Arya is the only one. Every time I Google a character I'm way off.

Possible return of Breaking Bad… Never say never…
