Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.



There were a half dozen adverts for WoT during NFL RedZone yesterday. Wife was thinking it seemed far fetched that there'd be significant overlap between people who'd watch 7 straight hours of football and prestiege-ish high fantasy fans. Then again, GoT became water cooler fare, so *shrug*

yeah, beyond anything else i think game of thrones showed that people were much more willing to get invested into weird fantasy poo poo than they'd let on before. i guess the question is if it'll hold true for things beyond game of thrones but obviously being on a specific video streaming service wasn't exactly enough of a hinderance to keep it from becoming a thing you couldn't loving avoid hearing about for years.

The screenings tonight aren't invitation only; all you have to do is sign up and request an invite. They'll mostly attract diehard book fans, who are fairly likely to be your most *negative* reviewers if you've hosed it up, or even if you haven't. Opening the doors to the public like that indicates a lot of confidence in the production. We will see in a few hours anyway.

On my way out the door to go to the Chicago screening. Presuming I get in, which is not guaranteed, how detailed a report are people looking for, anyhow? Play by play? Simple good/bad? Detailed review? I'm curious where the thread wants to draw the line between detailed analysis and remaining spoiler-free.

Speaking just for myself, please put any specific details in spoiler tags. What I'm mostly curious about is quality of the performances and production and whether or not people who haven't read the books will like it.

I'd be interested to hear from any early bird viewers what you think of the writing & direction - I don't care about much else, after all production values are likely to be good no matter what, and they are unlikely to have picked any really terrible actors (maybe excepting the Matt guy, who know though).

Agreed that details about plot stuff etc being in spoiler tags would be preferable.
