RE: 6 Reasons Why Game of Thrones is falling apart in the latest season

in #blog7 years ago

Well as far as medieval romance goes, that may be it. Still, you can't help but think this is what the fans wanted, two souls never meeting since Season 1, finally cross. Hostile at first, then starts to fall in love. This is a common plot line in most stories and that's called "Boy Meets Girl"

They were teased from the beginning, by Davos to Jon, then by Missandei to Dany. A lot of scenes were kind of forced, like the scene where Jon came back from the North, Dany waiting for him on the wall, Dany waiting on him to get well in the cabin.

If those scenes somewhat make you shriek for joy, then that's what the producers wanted at the expense of the story as a whole. Love cheapens, and I got that from an interview from a certain Japanese animator when asked why his characters doesn't have love interests.

There's a term, we use in our country, it's rough translation would be a Mexican soap opera, combined with fantasy and that is what GOT is becoming.

Haha, I guess you are right. I was indeed pleased about that whole thing. So much that all my buttons where pushed. Not just by the two of them meeting but by all these ruinions in this season. It was a list of many finally! moments.

By the way, I also wrote an article about GoT but in a way that you probably don't expect. Check it out although I assume you don't need it considering the level of nerdness you radiate. ;)

oh for sure! will check. many thanks! :)

My "finally" moments were the reunion of Jon and Sansa, and probably the first meeting of Dany and Jon. Both of which you can attribute as fan service but at that point it wasn't as glaring
