The over hype of this piece of crap is driving me crazy. I'm sure I'm not the only one. It's sexually and otherwise too violent for me. Pardon me if rape, torture, burning down occupied villages and slicing people till they bleed to death doesn't bring me pleasure. Yet nearly everywhere I look it's wall-to-wall free publicity for the damn thing. Just today I eliminated over 35 RSS feeds pertaining to it. When I turned on the TV at lunchtime MSNBC, FOX News and CNN all were featuring a piece at the same time. Much like last night's evening network news did.
Whenever I'm confounded about something my instincts kick in wondering if I should check the money trail behind the hype. Wow, is there ever! If anyone thinks any movie or series takes off on it's own, I got a bridge to sell ya. It takes a lot of money to turn the gears. Which makes me wonder where does ATT&T spend it's advertisement money for all it's other things? Could it be on a lot of those now helping to hype the series for them? Kinda like, "you be good to mama and mamma will be good to you".
Somebody no doubt will say if I don't like it don't watch it. Believe I'm trying hard not to. This 'Games Of Thrones' hype has become like a bunch of made for TV 'robo calls'. The harder you try to ignore them, the worse they annoy.
