Talking about all the money they're going to make? It's yet another reason for people to talk about their show.

Oh god drat it. The leaked episodes aren't even in 1080p, why bother?

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Well in all fairness, when I saw the season premiere the other night at an official HBO event at a local university, I don't think that was HD either. It was shown on an improperly-calibrated projector in an auditorium so the colors were hosed up at times and the whole thing seemed kind of blurry and lacking definition. drat, that's almost not even worth it then. I think I'll try my damnedest to wait every week and pray to the old gods and new that I don't get spoiled for a month.

They just need to start sending out screeners one at a time. I'd have thought they learned their lesson with The Wire seasons 4 and 5.

They should remake Lawrence of Arabia with the guy who plays Jorah. He is pretty much what I picture in my head whenever I think of that movie. Who's with me?

Lawrence looks nothing like Ian Glen, he did look almost exactly like Peter O'Toole though. Lawrence of Arabia is one of the few films that should never be remade as its just perfect in every last detail.

So, I take it that we've all decided against watching the leaked episodes? Or is the discussion mostly in the spoiler thread at the moment?

TVIV rules are to spoiler tag all leaked material, but I don't think anyone wants to see half this thread be black lines while the other half is "oh man I can't wait to watch the show legitimately so I can start reading these black lines." The spoiler thread is all spoilers, both books and leaks, so you'd be getting some big book spoilers while seeing us rage about the leaked episodes. If you want an unspoilered discussion, probably best to do it week by week in this thread. MrBims fucked around with this message at 18:26 on Apr 12, 2015 |

There's still some stuff book readers know are coming, even if the way it happens in the show is going to be a bit different. Non-book readers should still venture into the spoiler thread at their own risk.

I think that's a little silly and it's a shame there's no place to discuss the first four episodes without being spoiled on the rest. There's almost no reason not to watch the leaked episodes. I'm a bookreader though so it doesn't change much for me, but that's how I feel.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:There's almost no reason not to watch the leaked episodes. Apparently they're only available in 480p which isn't something I would be particularly bothered by but it makes sense that some people want their first viewing to be high-definition. Personally, as tempting as it is to binge watch, I'd have to wait another four weeks for any new content. Then again I guess book readers are used to waiting.

They won't find anyone and why should HBO really care anyway? They aren't losing revenue from ads, and unless there's a tremendous number of people out there that are going to cancel HBO for a single month then resub for the rest of the season they don't lose money from lost subs. And anyone willing to do that to save 15 bucks is already just pirating the show. This is like when the LOST pilot "leaked," it's free buzz. Releasing the remaining 3 after tonight on HBOGo in full 1080p would really be a nice push to get people to subscribe to their brand spanking new standalone service don't you think? What a coincidence that would be!
