Das man sicht nicht mal sicher ist ob es nun Satire ist oder nicht sagt schon einiges aus über den Zustand der amerikanischen Gesellschaft. Wobei es natürlich immer irgendwo Spinner gibt.
Poe's law, named after its author Nathan Poe, is an Internet adage reflecting the fact that without a clear indication of the author's intent, it is difficult or impossible to tell the difference between sincere extremism and an exaggerated parody of extremism.
Danke Dir! Kannte ich noch nicht.

[...]The imagined historical universe of “Game of Thrones” gives license for unhindered bed-jumping — here sibling intimacy is hardly confined to emotional exchange.
The true perversion, though, is the sense you get that all of this illicitness has been tossed in as a little something for the ladies, out of a justifiable fear, perhaps, that no woman alive would watch otherwise. While I do not doubt that there are women in the world who read books like Mr. Martin’s, I can honestly say that I have never met a single woman who has stood up in indignation at her book club and refused to read the latest from Lorrie Moore unless everyone agreed to “The Hobbit” first. “Game of Thrones” is boy fiction patronizingly turned out to reach the population’s other half.
Since the arrival of “The Sopranos” more than a decade ago, HBO has distinguished itself as a corporate auteur committed, when it is as its most intelligent and dazzling, to examining the way that institutions are made and how they are upheld or fall apart: the Mafia, municipal government (“The Wire”), the Roman empire (“Rome”), the American West (“Deadwood”), religious fundamentalism (“Big Love”).
When the network ventures away from its instincts for real-world sociology, as it has with the vampire saga “True Blood,” things start to feel cheap, and we feel as though we have been placed in the hands of cheaters. “Game of Thrones” serves up a lot of confusion in the name of no larger or really relevant idea beyond sketchily fleshed-out notions that war is ugly, families are insidious and power is hot. If you are not averse to the Dungeons & Dragons aesthetic, the series might be worth the effort. If you are nearly anyone else, you will hunger for HBO to get back to the business of languages for which we already have a dictionary.

Bischen mehr kohle würde der produktion aber gut tun, ich meine gerade die schlacht mit tyrion hätte man ruhig inszenieren dürfen, ist ja eine der wenigen schlachten die auch im buch quasi "first person" erlebt werden. Und, dass ein 40.000 man khalasar immer aussieht als wäre es eine umherziehende zigeunerbande ist auch nicht so pro. Alles in allem aber ganz gut wird auf jeden fall weiter geschaut.
12 christian Reasons to boycott Game of Thrones
1. Sexual abnormality, including incest and lesbianism, appears in graphic detail.
2. Witchcraft is presented as empowering while Christian values are utterly insulted.
3. There is far too much violence and this prevents the overall plot from ever becoming compelling.
4. Emilia Clarke is such an untalented actress that her only role in the show is to be eye candy for pedophiles.
5. By depicting the traditional heterosexual family unit as dysfunctional and a socialistic revolutionary army as an ideal alternative, the show reveals its underlying communist bias.
6. Actor Peter Dinklage, who plays a dwarf on the show, has become the poster child for sodomy amongst America’s youths.
7. At times, the series appears to be little more than an excuse to display illicit homosexual scenarios.
8. The Irish actors willfully glamorize severe alcoholism.
9. Pet wolves and dragons mirror demonic spirit guides in pagan cosmology.
10. The show is incredibly difficult for adults to understand.
11. There are no positive role models.
12. The moody, dark cinematography will make teens depressed.

Irgendwie ist es wohl risky den THread zu lesen, wenn man die Bücher nicuht gelesen hat?
Fands cool, hab die Staffel verdammt schnell durchgeguckt. Eventuell les ich doch erst die Bücher durch. Wenn ichs gesehen habe, werd ich wohl nicht mehr die bücher lesen.
