Spoil me

*waves at flist*

ok, I have an odd request: has anyone here read 'A Game of Thrones' or seen what's on TV? 'cuz I wanna be spoiled (I just don't want to read any more - not a fan)...

*bats eyelashes hopefully*

I'd be interested to see the first TV episode for curiosity's sake, but the reviews have so far put me off reading the books.

Yeah. I'm not impressed with the book(s), not interested in reading child POVs and angry at the author for having made every single woman an utter bitch...

But yeah, I'd like to watch the first episode for curiosity's sake.

I think the idea is that 'strong woman' equals bitch - especially in fantasy. Women either kick ass, or ... um, cater exclusively for the alpha-male's desires.

These do neither but are unpalatable to me all the same.

The review I read went on about the whinging Bran ... and various weird relationships. I am not tempted

I do abhor all the children's POVs *shudders*
