As an astronomical joke, I describe the world(s) of the Game of Thrones in my "technical" blog.
Seriously, one of the main attractions of the "Games" was its slow, "realistic" pace [GoT]. When the producers ratcheted it up more in line with the tempo of feature-length movies, it became more visually comprehensible but the charm is lost.
The Spring 2016 season was visually even better than the previous but outside of the scope of Martin's text, the dialogues were not as good as in the previous series. The producers should whip their writers into the line.
ReplyDeleteThere were few illogical scenes. A trained assassin does not kill Aria outright (this could be a deliberate idea of a god with Many Faces but this hasn't been explained). After healing by an itinerant actress with no magic skills, she runs from the assassin with the infected wound in her stomach with the dexterity of a track & field athlete. The turn of the tide of the battle by a suddenly appearing cavalry is appearing the third time in the series as it already did in the "lord of the rings" though the battle itself is a visual marvel. Producers and screenwriters are becoming lazy.
