Got the first episode watched and it’s ok? I still feel in a slightly bitter mood about the franchise after how poorly it went towards the end so probably being slightly harsher on this than I should be probably. Thought the cgi looked quite poor in places, the overhead views of the tourney looked the worst in my opinion. As I’ve mentioned before I’ve not read the book but I’m guessing
the Targaryen’s knowing about the Long Night is basically a bit of a retcon? I was under the impression the Doom of Valyria was a natural disaster that caused the Targaryens to flee to Dragonstone and subsequently Westeros when they wanted more land? Also does that make Cersei a secret Targ as she was sat on the Iron Throne at the time of the Long Night It’s definitely not all bad though, some great casting and subsequent acting performances, I’m liking the return to the more political side of things which the early series of GoT thrived on as well. Not 100% sold on it but it’s worth a watch at least.
