this reveals why western media sucks now. It's all about careerists doing cute little things that will impress their colleagues.

That's unironically a good thing if it leads to more creative risks being taken

The audience doesn't know what it wants or doesn't want until somebody tries something new and presents it to them. Art would only stagnate if it creatives focused entirely on giving audiences what they already like.

I really hope it will be good and "experimental" means something like an episode fully devoted to just one character in a mostly silent adventure as he fights several foes (basically giving us a live-action Dark Souls episode).
But after Severance s2 in particular, and knowing how out of touch hollywood writers are, I'm scared it will be something like an episode where literally nothing happens and one of the characters struggles to read a book as a metaphor for her inability to convince people that war is bad or some shit

Actually true. This is the true casualty of the hollywood bubble. Too many filmmakers/writers are swayed by what their idiot friends/contemporaries are saying at dumbass parties. It's why you end up with shit like TLJ.
>>211687086
Half true.
The audience knows it wants the same but different. That's all any audience has ever wanted since media boomed.
But exposing the audience to things it didn't realise it wanted can make them realise that there are other interesting things. And it can help art grow. However, the hollywood circle jerk is less focused on pushing the medium forward and more focused on proving to the audience (and their friends) how smart they are.
Choreography is the best example. Hollywood fights have been terrible for decades. It's especially frustrating since The Raid came out over a decade ago and was almost perfect in that regard.
But what makes it astonishing is that if you watch the behind the scenes, the choreography is actually often quite impressive. It looks terrible because they focus on flashy moves that wouldn't work, filmed with stupid jump cuts. In the filmmakers' minds, as long as they have a decent choreographer on board (which they normally do), they're doing their job right. They have no comprehension on ideas like less is more, or that audiences are more affected by things that feel believable. Perfect example of this is The Fall Guy. Choreography is impressive as hell on a technical level. On a visual level, it looks bland. And it's not especially engaging.
They wasted all that money on practical effects that look just as terrible as your average cgi capeshit slop because they didn't think about what they were actually trying to tell the audience in the context of the film and were just focused on impressing their friends.

Probably a gay "one take" shot of an abortion or something.
I remember there was a scene last season that was too "experimental" for GOT, it was just a silent scene of Rhaenyra looking at her kids and you had to figure out what she was thinking

This is the sick lesbo dyke they're talking about, with the shit eating grin that's ruining your HOTD.
Let's have a look what she has to say or is responsible for:
>Is responsible for the lesbo romance
>Hess hated Daemon for his "toxic masculinity", and she also hated that Daemon got in the way of the Alicent/Rhaenyra romance due to his existing connection to Rhaenyra.
Hess stated that she couldn't even understand why Daemon has fans
>I didn't watch Game of Thrones, and I haven't seen it. I think it was actually a plus... I think I was able to come at it sort of with fresh eyes.
>There's so much in play, there are armies, there are dragons, there's castle strongholds and political maneuvering, but at the end of the day, it comes down to these two women trying to figure it out.
>We've already had one person die, sort of, in their childbirth bed, and I just felt like Laena doesn't go out that way. She's gonna go out like a warrior
>History is often written by men who write off women as crazy or hysterical or evil and conniving or gold-digging or sexpots. Like in the book, it says Rhaenyra had kids and got fat. Well, who wrote that?
>Reason for Sharako Lohar focus in the final episode, played by a literal who youtuber

Inside her here, it will be a modern day Planetos episode taking place thousands of years after the main story, featuring borderline 21st century level (but still analog) technology. There will be a not!Bran character introduced who is having dreams around the time of the HotD story, and influencing events subconsciously. A high school girl is interested in the history of Westeros and is a big fan of Arya (famous historical explorer, the Targs are comparatively obscure at this point.) She has a romance with not!Bran and eventually persuades him to meddle with the events of the past to advance feminism. She finds he has a massive porn stash of targs, hand drawn pictures of monke, Helaena, and various targ girls like Rhaella and Alyssa as teenagers. They have a falling out and the not!Bran becomes an incel and starts working against feminism in the timeline.

Alicent is boring. She doesn't have a dragon, she's just a hole and making her one of the two main characters in a show about dragons, compounded with a lesbian backstory with Rhaenyra doomed this show from the start.

This. Doing this kind of shit is fine in a 26-episode-season kind of show when you've got room for trying plenty of risky or niche ideas for scripts because if it doesn't hit its mark it'll be a one and done that no one will remember... but when you're doing eight episodes it's fucking retarded.

Modern TV writers are failed novelists who piggyback off of much more popular IPs to tell their own stories. TV writers need to learn their place.

I was drunk when I watched this episode, and I was dumbfounded with all the time they were wasting of Alicent in the wild.
