I hope it gets better
22 August 2022
Good news for all the post-pubescent masturbators - you only have to wait 25 minutes for the first sex scene. And since it adds zero to the plot or story line it must be just for you. But if that's not enough, stick around. Later in the episode you get treated to a stop motion brothel scene. Let the bells ring out and the banners fly. And look. There's a black man in the small council so you can check that box. Add to that the fact that, except for the prostitutes, all the women are virtuous and good while almost all the men are terrible, ambition driven scum. I believe that covers all the requirements for a modern, woke production. Fanboys unite! People rating this a 10 must have already had it ready before they even watched the show.

I hope the acting and story get better because the very first scene is one of the worst acted in the entire GOT universe. The jousting scene was ok and done pretty well. The birth scene was good, if a little over the top. The CGI of the dragon scenes was bad. Really bad. Ifans and Considine were good, but Milly Alcock... oh my god she's bad and totally miscast. The wigs also look ridiculous.

I know it's only the first episode and I expect the story will get better, but I don't know how some of these people ever got past their screen test.
