The Liberal Agenda – House of Boring Dragons Review – 2 stars
I still remember watching the excitement of the first Game of Thrones.
The internal dynamics of Muti-perspective, multi value, political scheming and machinations story telling was fresh and new to TV taste buds shaped by Luke Skywalker and the individual hero narrative structure.
Game of Thrones crackled with all the energy and intensity of early Twitter.
In fact, Twitter is just like Game of Thrones, 240 Characters and most of them are evil shits.
You were on the edge of your seat each episode wondering what twist and character would rise or fall.
The spectacular roller-coaster of Game of Thrones ended teaching us all that most important of lessons: The millisecond a woman gets absolute power like a bloke, she’s going to fuck shit up and go dictator mass murdering pschyo on us.
In a way, Game of Thrones was the ultimate in 5th wave feminism, that day of glory when women can achieve the same level of barbarism than men can!
Hash tag dragon feminism. Hash tag equality.
In comparison, House of Boring Dragons is so boring I fell asleep.
There’s arsehole Albino Dreads King.
There’s bastard Albino Dreads brother.
There’s albino Albino Dreads daughter.
There’s Albino Dreads boring.
It’s very slow.
Dull.
Like the Magicians Nephew from CS Lewis after he wrote The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
The ‘backstory’ is only interesting to the author and people who Plane and Train watch.
If I’m this bored by House of Dragons, God knows how bored I’m going to be with the new lord of the Rings series, that’s set thousands of years before the Hobbit even happened.
First question – why hasn’t there been any technological advancements?
I’ll keep watching House of Dragons just like I kept watching the second series of True Detective (and third) out of respect for the first one, but I’m not enjoying it.
2 stars.

Lol. I thought it was ok. I got excited at the end when I clicked he was the white walker so I’m looking forward to seeing how that transpires. I didn’t like the albino princess much, but maybe she’ll improve. There were some gruesome scenes (I look away) that added depth to the story line. No doubt more of that as war unfolds. Plus it had dragons. 4 stars.
Luke Sky Walker had flaws comment Ng in very late when a good was lost.
Anikin had flaws, hit head, trajic love story, lost mother tragically.
All GoT characters had flaws.
These lot with there new “rules,”
Female characters have no flaws
No backstory
Are instantly the best at everything
Can not be outclassed by male characters
I’m sure there’s more I just can’t be arsed rewatching any of this bullshit and neither can the 5th wave feminist these 5th wave movies are supposed to cater to be arsed watching this shit.
why can’t HBO make another series like “the Wire”? which was ten times better than GOT. i still don’t understand why people get all excited over dragons and elves…
“The millisecond a woman gets absolute power like a bloke, she’s going to fuck shit up and go dictator mass murdering pschyo on us”
I was having a discussion with my daughter while listening to Keb’ Mo”s “put a Woman in charge”
Her response – not anymore! Just as aggressive and overly competitive when driving; just as big egotistical ladder-climbing and ladder puller upper arseholes; and just as devious as spin and bullshit merchants as blokes
Funny ole Whurl eh?
