Will the end of Game of Thrones keep you away from House of Dragons?

[John R Davis]

I loved the last season of Game of Thrones, so no issue for me.
I'm keen for the spin off even if I don't think it will be as good as the original series.

I too am a reasonable human being so understood and enjoyed the reasonings behind season 8.
I liked ep1 HOTD, wasn't overly confused by all the nouns. Good appeal to most of the characters. Dragons looked nice. All the nudity was a bit pointless though.

The end of GoT won't keep me away from HotD. The streaming location, coupled by a complete lack of free time, might do it, though.

Just watched the first episode. It was a decent enough start. I liked the pageantry of it. The dragons were cool. The choral version of the GoT theme during the end credits was a nice touch. I appreciated that Viserys is being cut by the Iron Throne.

Will keep watching for now.

It's actually the sexual violence of GoT that's keeping me away from the new show. I'm just not interested in putting that kind of stuff into my brain right now.

The "murder porn" was what had me drop off watching GoT, long before it was over.

Oh, I don't recommend picking it back up then.

Yeah the new show has that and it was entirely unnecessary as were the gratuitous whore scenes. I actually liked that later sseasons of GoT had less and less of those but it seems that the new writers have chucked them all back in

 

[Ryujin]

Thanks for the update, guys. Seems that it's not for me then.

I'm sure I'll watch it eventually, but it's not something that I (currently) am excited about. Maybe the quality of the show will change that, but I am just not feeling any hype for it.

No. Ramsey Bolton drove us away around Season 5.

So assuming the new show is like the old show, we prolly won't see it.

Why would I assume that? It's the same bloody setting.

Well, you only have the first couple of episodes to make an impression. I've noticed a number of series have opened with fan-service heavy first episodes (or two) to hit you with the shock and awe before easing off the titillation controls.
