I have actually seen Klaus in action back in the day when I used to watch Vampire Diaries as a teenager, Later looking back now as a veteran of shows with far more superior villains, I'd say the Klaus character was poorly written and very predictable. Also, the Brit portraying him was a terrible actor. Walter White from Breaking Bad makes him look like a baby in comparison.


If you actually rate a poorly written [PG 12] tv show villain/anti-hero above a well written villain from rated [MA] show, then you must have a very peculiar taste indeed. No offense, but your opinion is not one to be taken seriously.

- First of all, remember where I said "niche"? I will come back to this later.

- On Michael Jackson, he was a household name long before he broke away from Jackson 5. Furthermore, he perfected break dancing in the height of punk era, invented the iconic moon walk, and composed songs mainly targeted at the young demographic, whom let's face it, are the bulk of fandom.

- On Titanic, two words; James Cameron. The man is a world renowned movie director, and naturally, has a huge fandom. His name alone is an automatic box office success. Remember his last high profile work, Avatar? Fans did it the same justice they did to Terminator and Titanic, and the film is presently at the top of the list of highest grossing movies of all time. There have been many Titanic movies, but only the one written and directed by Cameron smashed the box office record.

- On Godfather, when the first movie came out, it wasn't that popular. Not a lot of people were particularly interested in watching violence been depicted on television. This was at the height of musicals (movies with lots of singing), but people behind the film persisted anyway, and when Part 2 eventually dropped, the audience finally started to accept it. The film was also revolutionary in the sense that it changed the way Hollywood make movies forever. Yet, it wasn't after several years, when technology evolved (social media improved), that Part 1 and 2 became known as the greatest movies of all time. So believed it or not, the Godfather movies owe social media a lot for their popularity.

To conclude, social media played a prominent part in all I have said above, and have always been integral to spreading awareness to interested parties at far flung corners of the globe. Before social media evolved into what it is today, there had been more rudimentary methods, and were ably utilized to hype those famous movies and popstars of yesteryears. Without social media, we may as well pack it in, and call it a day.

Coming back to Breaking Bad, it's a niched production. Like the Godfather films, it's targeted at a specific audience. There are folks that would enjoy watching lighter crime tv shows like Barry, but wouldn't spare a moment on Breading Bad because it doesn't tickle their fancy. Breaking Bad is gloomy all the way through, and like real life, is very unapologetic. You either love it or you hate it, there's no middle ground here. Thus, not very popular outside of it's target audience. Also couple that with the fact that social media weren't all up in your face like it is right now, folks that would have been otherwise interested, may never have known it existed.

However, if a show like that should start airing in this media crazy period, it would have been very different indeed. Superior marketing would have succeeded in ramming it down the throat of audience outside it's targeted demographic. I actually have two examples: Ozark and Better Call Saul. Two shows inspired by Breading Bad, but more popular today respectively. The power of social media, my friend.


On GoT, it's overrated for the fact it has an off season. Season 1 to 4 were the strongest, season 5-6 are also good but not as good as 1-4, and season 7 is straightup poor compared to it's predecessors. So, yeah, GoT is overrated. It's PR team is one of the best I've ever seen though. The way they jam it down the throat of everyone, you'd think it's the next thing since slice bread.


Anyhoo, lemme stop here, I think I have made my points well enough.

Great Graphics, Epic Blend of PUBG, Fortnite and MCVs... The game has everything, and unlike the others there is no Lag... At least for now


So Sweet Enjoyment

Says someone that has never seen Breaking Bad. If you had, you would be of different opinion.

Breaking Bad is the best tv show of the 21st century. Every episode was a hit back to back. No off season, and peaked in it's season finale.[b] It aired when the social media ain't what it is nowadays , thus, not well known outside of it's niche fanbase. All GoT has going for it is superior marketing, social media frenzy, [/b]and unabash fan service. GoT is kinda overrated tbh

The dude's question is weird because Breaking bad and GoT are too different shows. One is a crime psychological thriller, and the other is a medieval fantasy. It's like comparing Apple and Oranges.

And Merlin was never popular like GoT, not even close. It was only popular in some circles, pretty much like Legend of The Seeker.

All these anti-OLE fans and naysayers, hope you won’t run away when things improve.

The clear distinction between the two Manchester teams yesterday evening was quality. There were several instances in which we had a 2vs 2, 2 vs3 situation and Pereira, Lingard, Rashford made the wrong decisions. They either moved the ball too quickly or overhit the final pass.

Some of you just watch matches with a black/white mindset. The only thing you see are goals and mistakes.

Chaii but if Pogba leaves which player we go buy to replace am, that's my fear. It's not as if there's a prime young Kroos somewhere we can buy.
