Now there is absolutely no way Netflix keeps bringing out this much bottom barrel flick without any sort of blowback because what the actual hell was this?.

Peeked into the storyline late and i instantly knew the movie was not serious cuz what is the hell was that plot?.

I'm this close to washing my hands of Netflix originals ..zero reward value 😩

I would love to see a new series that explores regions outside of Westeros and Valyria! Especially east of Essos
Same here bruh. I'm slowly tired of Westeros. I need more Valyria and Essos. That's why I'm hyped about the other projects like Princess Nymeria (10,000 Ships), The Seasnake, and animated Golden Empire of Yi Ti.

More exploration of other far away regions, like Rhoyne, Valyria, Essos, Summer Isles etc.

I swear my mind just dey pound make dey no kill dis girl oooh when she is talking to alicent..

rhaenyra 2 soft mehn chai her son is even tired of her everybody in team black want war she 2 soft, baela just dey vex likee maa release d dragon make we burn everything ..

Make d softness no make her lose dis war cus d episode 4 trailer I just watch d team green seem like leading in dis war..

Omoh we wait sha
Na lamba be that..... Baela didn't really want to hurt them or anything. She just wanted to scare them especially after noticing Criston Cole was among them.

There's no reason Baela shouldn't burn them up on that field or even when they hid in the forest. It's just an excuse for her ineptitude. She's thinking Rhaenyra still has feelings for Cole. That's the excuse for her hesitation.

Those lords ain't all about the war. They're trying to benefit themselves and claim glory for themselves. They don't see Daemon in the picture no more and think her weak.

Yup, mis interpreted would be the right word, as she saw signs but just mis read them.

But i totally hate how, The prince that was promised was such a huge concept in the books, and in the GOT series, it was just like a flinging afterthought ultimately leading to them leaving the true identity of The Prince that was promised in great ambiguity in the hand. TPTWP is supposed to lead the world from darkness, and at every stages of the show the most obvious candidates would have been Jon Snow and Danys, both from Aegon's bloodline, but in literal terms, I don't think any of them did lead the world from darkness, even though the Night King was an invention of the show, it was the most obvious darkness throughout the show, and he was killed by Arya, and it was infact Danys dragons that helped in bridging the wall for the white walkers. Jon snow or Danys would have been perfect with better writing, as their story is literally the Song of Fire and Ice.

After the show caught up with the books around season 5, they were kind of winging it from there, and ended up with a rather ambiguous ending. Mad over that S8 again.
Some of the elements of the final shows were hinted at by GRR Martin. He preferred if they were 2 additional seasons before the finale but D&grin wanted to end it quickly and move on to the Star Wars universe.

Some of the things in the last two seasons will most likely end up in Martin's book regardless. It's the details that may be changed or how rushed the show came to a conclusion.

She didnt deceive him in the sense that she knew her interpretation of what she saw in the flames were wrong and acted as if she was right. She was just wrong on her summation of what she saw and didnt realize. Same can be said about The Egg (Aegon V Targaryen) who saw the vision of Dany with everything burning around her and the birth of her dragons and thought the vision was about him and he ended up burning himself and his family.
Yeah, Egg... The Targaryen this new show the Hedge Knight is based about.

Love how everything is getting connected.

pls any update on Kingdom Season 3 ( k drama )
Wanted to ask this few days ago. We don't know if it's been abandoned.
But Netflix production rate has been slow of late.

That was fast
Somewhat fast.
Although, it's been in development for almost two years now. I was expecting shooting maybe December or early next year.

HBO rightly known they can't be skipping GOT content for a whole year. So they got to accelerate things. We should have had two prequels already showing by now if not for HBO canceling BLOOD MOON at the last minute, after a whole pilot episode was already filmed for $30mn.

Not GOT level of spicy but I will take it and rumors about an Aemond and Alys Rivers scene too since we aren't getting a Sara Snow and Jacaerys Targaryen scene
It's still early yet. Something fit still sup. 7 more hour-long episodes to go.

She's in trauma nah, she was forced to marry her brother at the age or 13 in the book, imagine if sansa was forced to marry jeoffrey or Ramsey for the rest of he life
I'm talking about that particular scene not her history. Besides their family are well known to marry each other, so shït ain't new.

I bet they have been fucking before viserys died
Who knows man. The way they just easily aligned after Rhaenyra's rejection suggests some earlier interactions.

lol The regular unavailability of top shelf movies these days has made my work easier. It gives me ample time to knock off my oldies. To put things in perspective, the only new flick i have copped this month and that i even think is worthwhile has been Hitman, and we are already passed middle of the month.

Plus, i have recently found out, i have lost the ability to even download and hoard media in large volume .They recently upgraded the internet around me to a fairly high bandwidth and each time i connect, i just lose all urge to download, cuz bro i have several drives with years and years worth of media, and i basically don't see the point of copping more without clearing the backlog that i have, maannn, i had files i got as far back as 2020, unseen!!.

The straw that even broke the camel's back, was a last month, Google changed policies to their unlimited drive option for workspace, and my admin was forced to delete one of my drives without prior notice and this drive had close to a 1TB worth of files, files that i have curated from way back, from torrents with seeds that are dead as of today or hosting sites that no longer exists, so getting them back is near impossible 😩

So bro, is all vanity downloading and hoarding unending without dedicating the time to see them, so what i do now, is to shuffle within my HDDs each week, and just pick out oldies to see, i have a priority list of which to see first too, then i follow a max 3 shows weekly, that's just 3 episode per week, and then the occasional good new flick that drops once a while.
Sorry about your drive. I know how it feels.

True, scarcity of top shelf films this period has largely helped me some what. I know my focus is TV shows this year. Cos over the years I've been focusing on solely movies and moving for event TV shows or few that really pique my interest.

The lesser amount of good films this period is helping me to balance my TV show watchlist vs the films. I know I'll still have time to get back on the movies. I just need to clear off some TV shows. The increasing amount of prestige TV shows In good numbers ain't helping. Part of the aftermath of the streaming wars.

Y'all don't come for me but have there been female nudity on HOTD this season so far? because most movies and series are delving in on male nudity which is because of our present culture shift but it's GRRM's universe so I expected some hmmm hmmm as the last season disappointed me in that aspect
There's a scene just above your comment. 👆🏽👆🏽

In the book, Alicent was even present on the scene and held at knife point and the mother, her daughter (King's sister-wife) walked in and was asked to pick one, she picked the two year old and they went ahead to kill the other one telling the one picked "your mother wants you dead"


We should be thankful they took liberties with that part of the plot, the original would have scarred some feeble viewers for the foreseeable future cheesy

SEUN, when will all this nonsense stop pls? It's getting annoying and unbearable. I no just understand this level of nonchalance. If you were not making money from it now, it's a different ball game, but this forum puts money into your pocket so this level of mediocrity is disappointing in 2024.

These numbers look really low for me. Furiosa looks like a $50-60mn debut in US to me. Over $100mn worldwide opening.

I thought Galadriel found out the human was Sauron in S1? Wtf am I seeing here?
Yep, it's Sauron. Heard it's hair colour change. It's still the same actor. Sauron can change shape and look I think. So he can look like elf.

I saw a thread on I think twitter that says modern Hollywood is one big money laundering machine. Fair points were made there

But my question is, why do production companies pay star artistes millions of dollars if they are still going to end up paying almost or sometimes more than the production cost to market a movie?

Why is advertisement/marketing costing up to $200m, I just read that the 2015 mad max ended up being a loss for the company and I was livid for no reason.
That's just straight up bullshít... No production company spends $200mn for marketing.
The average marketing budget for blockbusters is around $100-120mn. The biggest you'd see is $150mn for absurdly huge marketing over budget.

The rarity are films like Avatar: The Way of Water with $175mn marketing and Avengers: Endgame with $200mn. After these two movies you'd be hard pressed seeing a movie spend over $150mn for marketing costs.

As for Mad Max I ain't sure and I don't think it's a loss for the company. If not WB won't be bringing back the franchise.
