Please tell me how I, as a life long conservative and a two time Trump voter, am woke. You know absolutely nothing about me other than I am willing to give a show a chance before bleeding all over a message board about it.

Do i think the creators of the show are idiots for saying what they said, absolutely.
Am i going to not give a show a chance or bitch about it before seeing it because of a stupid comment, no.
If i did that i may as well just get rid of my tv and never go to movies because almost everyone in Hollyweird is that way and no amount of bitching about it on a message board is going to change it, its just making everyone else miserable.

GRRM was progressive as frick before woke was a thing.

I remember back in to day every few months checking his Livejournal for updates and all it would be was 3 page rants about George W Bush.


FIFY. Yes I remember all that too. Woke to me is a different thing. It’s pushing inclusivity, diversity and equity above all else

Don't think anyone in this thread is not giving this show a chance because of a black person or the stupid comment. That stupid comment was just a little lagniappe.

This thread was literally started because of the stupid comment about why there are black people



So why aren't people giving this one a chance? Is it because of GoT?

And what you take form that is OP isn't watching this show only because of that? Little lazy considering OP said nothing of the sort.

Yea, Because the end of the GoT was dogshit and killed any interest I have in the universe. Pretty much everyone that has said here they aren't watching it is doing so for that reason.

Well that dumb since the people who fricked up GoT have nothing to do with this. It wasnt HBO who told them to hurry up and rush to finish, it was Dumb and Dumber.

That's your opinion, and you're welcome to have it.

Signed, almost every thread of any popular show on this board where people bitch about these kind of changes

I guarantee with this one, the same folks who are here complaining will be in those threads complaining about the show after having watched it. It never fails.


Belle, Disney has sold more Buzz Lightyear action figures and Mickey Mouse dolls. It’s not even going to gross $300 million worldwide. That is simply incredible to put it mildly when every boy on the planet should want to see it.

I’m sorry, but people are putting their money where their mouth is at this point. These companies are fricking around and finding out. The people in this thread saying they’re not going to watch this are not bullshitting you.

Unlike Lord of the Rings which I’m staying away from because it’s woke, this show simply doesn’t interest me. This universe has been dead to me since The Long Night, and I only finished the show because I had come this far so why stop now? When the show starts and like these Star Wars shows/movie threads, you won’t see me in them.

I don’t have to. All I have to do is step into a Star Wars thread on this board to see exactly what I’m talking about.

The same folks will show up screaming for pages while still watching the show. Y’all can downvote that for days but it doesn’t make it any less true.

So keep a list from this thread and bet me anything you would like. Should be free money for you, yea?

Then you shouldn’t have any reason to post in the show thread then correct?

Again, I’m just pointing out a fact that has regularly manifested itself on this board. If that doesn’t apply to you, you shouldn’t be so rustled by it.

I’m not betting anonymous posters on a message board like a teenager.

Should be an entertaining read when they show up though.

Yeah. You pointed at people posting in the Star Wars thread. Save for general Star Wars threads, do you ever see me posting anything about the Star Wars shows or any Star Wars movie past The Last Jedi? I’ve kept my word on swearing off Star Wars after they slandered the fans, and a couple of people are joining me.
