- Time for my Stories is a podcast about analyzing TV shows hosted by Matt Christman and Felix Biederman from Chapo Trap House. Previously only available through a now-defunct app, this show is now at risk of becoming lost media.
In the mythical continent of Westeros, several powerful families fight for control of the Seven Kingdoms. As conflict erupts in the kingdoms of men, an ancient enemy rises once again to threaten them all. Meanwhile, the last heirs of a recently usurped dynasty plot to take back their homeland from across the Narrow Sea.
Just rewatching the battle episodes of GoT is like trump fast forwarding movies to get to the violence
Great minds think alike
Trump probably doesn't watch tv
Yeah, you have to skip the entire first season and most of the second to get to any battles
The idea that Game of Thrones had vague enough politics for any ideology to see itself in is absolutely correct. The Others aka the White Walkers simultaneously represent the threat of climate crisis and a wave of mysterious foreigners that are going to irreparably change the land.
I just realized that game of thrones, the marvel movies and the star wars sequels all ended in 2019
Damn Matt read the books out of impatience
Thanks forbidden fruit you are new Acid marxist
to their point that the show's success is proof that TV is bad compared to film, I disagree that it's the point. The reason GoT had the success it had as a series when the same story would have been kinda forgettable as a film is that the runtime makes the world and characters more believable, where a movie, even a hrs one would have had to skip so much taht the whole thing would feel like carboard, the same way, say, the recent star trek movies felt insignificant.
the same way the hobbits eating and smoking pipe were what made the lord of the rings world believable, the endless conversations in GoT made us immersed - and they get to do it with more politics, geography and morally conflicted characters whereas a movie has to do with broader archetypes and a more linear plot.
I literally know a couple who named their daughter Arya. Complete trash 😂
I worked in a portrait studio. You wouldn’t imagine the number of baby aryas robs and kalessies popping up mid 2010s
There has to be an 8th grader named Khalessi now
My fucking cousins kid, and yes, we are black 😢😢😢@@TheJadedJames
@@493HZ I’m so sorry. I feel especially bad for those kids after the final season
@@493HZbetter than Devantay
I'm sorry you can criticize book Dorne material without giving the showrunners a pass on the garbage they did with it
Felix fumbling the ending and Matt getting pissed was chef's kiss 🧑🍳💋👌
frankly, while I read a lot of fantasy as a kid and teenager, the general geeky discourse around the show and books really made me not want to watch and read them
Nah give them a read they’re great
@@OttoVonBizmarkie Well the first three are. After that, ymmv.
@@Shadowman4710the story essentially "ends" at the end of book 3, "a storm of swords." GRRM probably should've done a giant hard STOP there and then reevaluate like a volume II and III or whatever from there. But, unfortunately, he didn't. And we got very weak, meandering books 4 and 5 and then he gave up because, yeah, the story isn't going anywhere really.
@NoName-lq6vw what really makes me kind of wonder why the books are still well regarded, is the fact that GRRM hasn't written a universally praised book in the series for over 20 years. He has only put out 2 books that were originally one before it got bloated into the meandering messes that AFFC and ADWD are. I can't imagine getting excited for anything else in his series after reading those two, so God dam bpring
@@markbunst5961if you pretend book 3 was the end of a stand alone volume and forget that books 4/5 exist (and 6/7 should but never will) then it's a pretty good little trilogy that ends with the red wedding. A horribly tragic ending, sure, but an ending. Starks lose. Lannisters win. Dany? Who cares. Game over, gg. GRRM has been basically riding on those first books being pretty good reads up until HBO made his books into the show and then he was golden forever. Just participate in some screenwriting and rake in the millions. Can't blame him for that
29:54 You underestimated the sisterhood. I died. Very funny.
the more time passes, the more i am convinced D and D ruined GoT on purpose, a Conspiracy that we will probably really never know the answer to... but yeah it's almost impossible to 'want to' rewatch GoT. Young Zoomies will never understand the Cultural Togetherness/ Chill Vibes popular art used to give to Society.
Life used to be so chill and culture used to have Cool Celebrities.
Now they have people like Mr Beast to look up to...
Dany is still muh queen
Stannis the Mannis
@@MrDukeSilverr that was my king until sir twenty good men destroyed him
@@MrDukeSilverrI for one welcome our insane eldritch Viking overlord
@@Carlosdreamur book stannis is alive and waiting for boltons army to step on a lake filled with holes
@@MrDukeSilverr your right but winds isn’t coming out so I was just referencing the show
i'd like to try a bowl o brown
Absolutely amazing art GoT was... Until it wasn't
Gambo is back, baby. Gambo is back.
gambo to the polls
HotD is to GoT what Jaehaerys is to Maegor. The predecessor may have fucked up in the end, but the successor is doing pretty good so far
Game of Thrones being a TV series version of Marvel movies is an interesting take but a really dumb one.
Watching house of dragons makes me miss watching this thru the first time
48:31 ee eeee oo ooo :')
Wow, these guys are so much better when they're not fixated on being edgy and obtuse.
Aren’t there some Chapo uploads that you should be bitching in the comments section of?
How many episodes did you have to angrily listen to to get here?
Chapo are just not great at media analysis. Listening to the most cynical take imaginable can be funny sometimes, but this is far from good analysis overall
Yeah. Reddit incarnate.
what's gambo?
Matt’s nickname for Game of Thrones
Damn maybe we should let this be lost media
I heard some people say things like the white walkers or like global warming
So we just need to stab the clouds with silvery daggers
It fits though. Yes it's an unnecessary thought to have, but it does fit
Game of Thrones completely ripped off Wheel of Time.
wheel of time sucks though
Meh..... nah
@@carsen1GTFO the TV show definitely does, the books are much better. Though Robert Jordan fell into the same trap that GRRM is still mired in, not knowing how to finish a story and writing meandering nonsense. At least Wheel of Time is finished, ASOIAF will never be finished and I will not be the least bit surprised when GRRM croaks
