yeah, i torrented the first few seasons and subscribed myself for season 4.
making quality fucking television is how you make money, not by trying and failing to stop piracy.
Yes.. that’s why made so many seasons of the show.. of course..
It was supposed to be 10. They crammed the ending into season 8 after they decided they could make more money off some other bullshit that ended up flopping. That's why the writing felt forced and the acting/production was shit and none of S8 made sense.
Pretty sure HBO was willing go to for multiple more seasons (why would they not?), but Dumb and Dumber decided to rush the ending.
Just clarifying because it looks like by they you mean HBO.
Uh? You mean they didn't profit at all from the insane merchandising? Maybe they need to have a conco or two with George Lukas than, because the GoT merchandise was off the rails
Hollywood Accounting LOL
I did pay for all seasons, but we could only get it legally through a horrible HBO Nordic app with insanely poor quality, so yeah I did also put in some effort in watching the series in a little more decent quality, but it’s just weird how low quality all streaming options were.
They destroyed themselves faster than the pirates ever could.
Didn't the FTC just post new rules about sponsored content.
If it's true that pircay nearly destroyed GoT, that means that we as pirates have power. We're a counter balance against ridiculous payment schemes and arbitrary limiting of content.
I wasn't able to access the show when it was around so I downloaded it. Sadly I also downloaded the last season which the show runners raped
They should have canceled it after season 4, we all would be better without the abominations that followed.
