Can't believe I once argued here TV Series>Books.


After extensive research... I can confirm that's a lie.

Books>TV Series.

Don't waste your time it's so dead

Too late. have already watched episode one. Whilst it doesn't exactly grab your attention if you're an action freak, there's something lowkey about it that's appealing..a certain edginess. like all hell's about to let loose or something....

Preacher Season 3 has been boring so far....

I must have been in a coma and missed SEASON 2 and year 2017 thus.

After class today, I'll start Animal kingdom. my coursemates have hyped the show to the extent if I don't watch it now, I won't feel whole.

Dygeasy:
The emboldened is the more reason why you should stop making a fuss about who was cast in GOT and who was not.

Truth is it does not matter and it doesn't change shyte!! A story is a story and the writer/owner of a story will use the kind of people he wants to. Now you mentioned that the same writers are writing another show centered around black slaves. That again is not a problem. As long as there are actors and actresses willing to play the part. Man, once again, it is a story and will be portrayed the best possible way.

So, tell me once again why we're fighting. Can we all just settle down and enjoy the stories?

you completely missed the point so I won't even bother trying to engage with you. bye.

Grey Anatomy and How to get away with murder ain't outstanding?
Bratking was right. Inferiority complex has fallen on you.

as in eh. I bet it never occurred to his mouldy mind that many top sitcoms out there have black writers. namely, Black-ish, park and rec, Brooklyn nine-nine, scrubs, two and a half men, psych, shameless et al.

bet he never heard of kenya barris, larry wilmore, shonda rhimes, john ridley, courtney agbo and aaron(forgotten his last name).

These are all quality black scriptwriters in high demand across the states and diaspora but no, the idiot would rather reserve his adoration for his white masters.

Don't be delusional, this is the problem of Africans

was it with this mindset that game of thrones was written or with this mindset that cars was manufactured?

we are blessed indeed, but here you are typing with something built by others(whites). How have your blessings helped others?

If Michael Faraday was thinking like you, he wont have helped invent electricity.

Lets be practical and stop believing in things like fate, grace, luck, miracle etc.

Lets wake the bleep up from imaginations and start being practical

Damn! the inferiority complex is strong in this fellow. why did I even bother? adios amigo.

Singapore1:
my last question is

SHOULD WE BOYCOTT ANYTHING THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE BLACK RACE?

like FIFA 14 15 16 17?

No one is born inferior to anyone, dude. In fact, all men and women are born equal. What people accumulate in the course of their life does not make them superior. people are not small or big because of inventions & possessions.

you become small because of what you think of yourself. It has got nothing to do with the next person, be they white or black,or yellow or what have you.

Look around and you will see many blacks who have achieved a lot. it's all about attitude. it's what you think of yourself and how you carry yourself.

black people like you must learn to be comfortable in their own skins. stop focusing on what y'all have and don't have....there is far too much time and energy wasted on the ignorance of the white man.

If you're going to be competing and comparing yourself with others, it simply means you are suffering from a deep seated inferiority complex. so you need to rid yourself of that, learn to love yourself and your skin colour. we're a BLESSED race.

Ozark.

Singapore1:
don't abuse na, it will be boring

you're even a bigger fool than he is. both of you've been so brainwashed by the western media that you don't even realized you're insulting yourselves, your family, your ancestors and your descendants. Massa mentality right here. smh.

skitkid2:
blacks and playing victims. Yet they are the ones spoiling america.

Most blacks are inferior.

I like how they depicted blacks in the sopranos, they depicted exactly what they are

Blacks always wallowing in self pity

Why didn't a black man write game of thrones and cast all blacks?

I dont know of any great show written by a black man

God! I wish there is a way I can reach inside the internet, clamp my hands around your scrawny neck and squeeze the life out of you. bloody fool!

sod09:
so the blacks are what
masters, slaves, friends ?

dude I don't think you're even getting the point. and why wouldn't blacks be masters? or do you think we're too subhuman to be that?

iamnlia:
Ffs!
Is your brain made of pap? Does the guy look purple to you?

You label me ignorant but you refuse to admit that the man is black?

dude,you can't force people to be what they don't wanna be. the guy himself identifies as multiracial. yes it's a thing. this rapper from canada who for the life of me can't remember his name right now identifies as same.

yes I just remembered...Drake.

sod09:
imagine where pple are taking argument to again, that we all know blacks were slave during medieval time,

Niggah I don't know where you got this baloney from but in medieval times, sub-Saharan Africa is an uncharted territory. the first white people to set foot on the shores of Africa are the Portuguese and it was in the 16th century(no longer medieval)

iamnlia:
Blacks just love playing victim, did you see any Asian there? No one in GOT looks mongoloid but no one is complaining. No black man can have a major role in westeros cos it isn't just feasible.

mehn you're dumb. The creators of GOT used british cast primarily because of their regional accents. the further you go north, the accent thickens. skin colour should be secondary cos a lot of black folks are british and speaks like the white folks. now since uk don't have any east asian actor of solid repute, any random asian actor would have had a weird accent that isn't british and people would have been put off so hence the asian snub. at least that's a very good reason in theory and people get it.

iamnlia:
Picture this, a black man having the means to go to westeros from Africa when the neighbouring dothraki haven't gone. The setting is in an old time Westeros which naturally should be set in an all white environment they probably gave blacks minor roles due to this kinda unsmart rant.

NIGGAH! what the hell are you even on about?? this is not history but fantasy. there are no rigid set of rules. and who said that westeroos is a white environment. where is it written? where the Bleep are you getting this shiit from? and you're not even bothered that the extras that are predominantly SLAVES are of black ancestry? mehn some people are just hopeless.

Coyotejack:
Some black people have been casted in GOT , although they were not main cast , example the pirate that the onion Knight was in cahoots with, the bodyguard of The King of dorne , the guy she locked in the vault in quarth (cannot remember his name ) just to mention a few they were all black people, please don't raise this issue again. If u Don't like it stop watching, and not saying they ain't casting black people.

when I say cast I'm not referring to EXTRAS, niggah. I'm talking about memorable roles not moving motions that make up the general background. and the past tense of cast is cast btw.

Singapore1:
it will be silly to have black people in a fantasy show based on medieval European wars ..also The world of Westeros is modeled after medieval England, so it would be inaccurate to have an ethnically diverse set of ruling families, now that is me trying to defend black race ..

What the hell you said it yourself, it's a FANTASY show! Fantasy been the operative word here. In a fantasy setting, any thing goes, no set rules; you have magic and dragons, leprechauns, trolls, Giants, orks, people of all race and sizes and shapes, etc.

This is not history, dude. it never happened, okay? This is merely someone's fantasy been played out on television. A bald black man would have gotten the role of Varys if the show creators wanted. ditto Lord baelish and other major roles.

In a show that have giants ffs and you're telling me it will be INACCURATE to have an ethnically diverse set of.....

WTF dude??!

Singapore1:
if you ask me, i dont give a sh!t about the kind of race they use simply because i'm tired of black people playing the victim all the time ... i mean it's risky fighting for majority of the black, it doesn't worth it ... they can't go out there and feature black simple because they want to "appease" the black community , world shouldn't work that way, it should be based on merit , i know you will want to ask me this so no exceptional black actor or actress out there? ... yeah i have thought about that too .. but why we are here defending the black actor or actress, what have they done ? .. sitting at home waiting for letter of employment from HBO ...

mehn....this is bad. real bad. your inferiority complex is too strong. the sad thing is you don't even know what you talking about.

do you know that every uk actor of any race and age MUST have a stage background. ie, they must be classically trained. which makes them very good and better than their american counterparts that don't have stage culture. There are several black british actors that would have set GOT on fire if only the racist creators have bothered. I won't drop names here for they're too many and have featured in many medieval movies and television series(fantasy & history alike).

HBO is not the problem cos they don't have problem with black people. in fact, they like to feature black people in their dramas if oz, the night of, the wire, et al are anything to go by.

No, the problem solely lies on the two white guys running the series. go ahead and google them and see how people reacted to a new show they are planning to launch; a show about slaves in an alternate universe where slaving is still legal. a show that would have shiit tons of black people in it but as as SLAVES. meanwhile, their present show doesn't have a single black man in a major or minor role.

So before you start defending what you don't know about, do your research first, okay? Don't be like Jon snow that knows nothing.

Cao's a draft dodger, she never fights.

That girl remains a mystery to me. Quiet, smart, devious, rigid, uptight --- but I bet she's freaky in a crazy way when ducked behind the curtains of privacy. Crazy enough to break bread with Lorenna Bobbit and Casey Anthony.
The church bells in my head start to ring when I meet such ladies. I just want to break them. Devour them. I mean break them the way Christian Grey broke Anasthesia. *Runs out*

There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the ANGER of a GENTLE woman.

Beware!

Singapore1:
the series is filmed on three continents and in six countries ( AFRICA (morocco ) , europe , and america )

And yet doesn't feature a SINGLE BLACK PERSON? doesn't that give you pause?

Game of thrones is criminally overhyped joor. I'm one for strong boring dialogue but GOT takes it too far. with them it becomes too tedious. almost a punishment to watch. This season is not making sense at all...just finished the hyper boring episode 2.

those that don't agree, I dey my house coman beat me.

This Ozark is really good. finally a good show from netflix after a series of continuous misfirings.

Kaycee7:
Actually I'm asking you why you think people will watch 55 minutes of loopholes & shitty storyline for 5 minutes of sex scenes? Do you think anyone is that gullible?

there is something MORE appealing in watching mainstream actors doing "the naughty" in a tv series than watching pornstars strut their stuff in a porn movie.

Cleanthing:
I haven't seen anyone with a better accent than Marton Csokas (Quinn - into the badlands).. I could be exaggerating though.

it's a southern New Orleans accent. if you have watched true blood you'd see a lot of the characters speaking with similar accent. hate the accent btw, it's irritating to the ears.

and one other thing....Martin Csokas is from New Zealand so his accent in ITB is fake.

akeeen:
have you watched - The Voices [Ryan Reynolds]?

I think so. vaguely. Something about a fire towards the end.....

akeeen:
wtf did I just read .. I couldn't even finish..


ted Bundy killed 30 people.. he even slept with their decomposing corpse..


that crazy..

crazier than Norman ..

and it's even non fiction.. damn!

Lolol. Norman is a learner compared to Ted Bundy.

akeeen:
I haven't actually watched a movie about someone this crazy..

when I heard Norman bates was a psycho .. (before I started the series).. I was expecting a full mode serial killer..

buh he's soooo nice and sweet..

you know?

Yup. The perfect psycho. you won't see em coming. google Ted Bundy.

akeeen:
Bates Motel is so annoying and interesting..

so fvcking annoying .

I hate that Norman dude..

I don't even know how to explain my hatred for him..

stupid boy. ! ..

he's a psycho, what did you expect?

Mekanus:
There's gonna be a season 8?

Of course! starts in october.

Mekanus:
Damn!! Just the first episode of season 7 and I'm like 'what dafuq is wrong with these people?' The episode is just a new definition of boring. How can AMC just add sand to garri when they have gotten this far. I just hope the subsequent episodes are not like this, else I will have to dump the shitt here. Damn!!!

Season 7 is a buildup to the WAR(season , so it's understandable if it comes off as boring.
