TYRONE GA!
Not really. Plenty of people actually liked the last couple seasons of GoT. The Walking Dead still does great numbers, somehow. There's a ton of popular trash out here. Dexter and Sons of Anarchy stayed popular until the very end. It just so happens you're on a forum of TV and film bluffs so it can become an echo chamber. Netflix only takes a monumental L if these shows don't draw in subscribers, which is the whole point of paying all this money to content creators

:ehh:

Sidenote, What was the endgame of the Confederacy show? A build up to a round 2 of the war and they lose? If this was the finality and nikkaz take over the old south, I'm all game. :yeshrug: Guerilla style nikkaz killing cacs. I know they had some of the black writers from Underground on board (and that shyt was flames).

Jews didn't cancel the Man in the High Castle and we know how they get down with throwing their weight around cancelling people and shows and shyt.

All i know is these 2 cats better deliver after that GoT shytshow of season 8.

Benioff wrote 25th Hour and Troy screenplays :ehh:
X-Men Origins Wolverine was bad though :huhldup:
He helped co-write the upcoming Gemini Man movie starrin Will. If it's trash, :francis:

Weiss pretty much only has GoT under his belt. :patrice:

Benioff isn't the only writer for X-MEN ORIGINS. He was rewritten. There were multiple writers on that script. Don't put that all on him.

They’re cashing in for sure but I’m not expecting anything great to come out of this.

I was all up in the GoT thread shytting on these cats, so I'm definitely not caping. I would think Confederacy would have some sort of "happy" ending because it'd be career over if they made a show solely about slavery and black people taking Ls:francis:

Despite what I said before, I also think these cats are fukked if they don't deliver. They don't have a ton of goodwill with diehard GoT fans and Star Wars die hards are already worried about them taking the helm. A hit in terms of numbers and quality would restore faith.

I thought Aaron McGruder was doing that.


Aaron Mcgruder is doing an Amazon show called Black America that is basically what it would be like if descendants of slaves got reparations through the South being set up as an independent region for black people. Pretty much bringing every black person’s fantasy to life


The GOT creators show was basically if the South won the civil war and slavery was still in tact in the modern day. Pretty much bringing every white person’s fantasy to life.

200 million? i mean GoT is one of the biggest shows ever and is one of my faves of all time but after s7-8 i would hesitate giving them some stupid amount of money. unless netflix has clauses and numbers those two have to hit to get the full amount. would disney or apple offer those two that much money? seems like netflix was bidding against themselves and got desperate.
