AIBU?

To be shocked at Game of Thrones - it's very rude!

I just got a copy of series 1 of Game of Thrones from a mate.

It's very rude. It's like Lord of the Rings, only with tits and incest. I had heard about it and thought DS 14 would enjoy something like that. After watching it myself, I think he would enjoy it a little too much.

I think it's fab, but I haven't seen any other TV series that feature so much full frontal nudity. It even has willies!

AIBU to be totally shocked at how rude it is?

we keep a boobage count. But there is plot. Its possible you may have to read the books to spot it however...

Grin YANBU. We are half way through Series 2, it just gets worse! I do think it is very, very good but I could do with a little less incest! Are you enjoying it otherwise?

There wasn't one single boob on show in Season 3, episode 2. DH was most disappointed.

Yeah, I wouldn't show a 14-year-old it.

It's very adult. It's a great series (the books are amazing too!) but there is a lot of sex and nudity.

My DP recommended his parents watched it, without thinking of the nudity. They made 15 minutes and were horrified. They treat us like we admit to watching hardcore porn now...mortifying.

I'm loving it Mimstar! Grin But it gets worse? The incest is a bit icky, but it's a good story. My DM has the books and said they were brilliant.

infamouspoo, I'm surprised you can keep up, There's more boobage than I could shake a stick at.

I actually find the violence harder to cope with than all the graphic sex. I mean, do we need to see a horse having it's head chopped off?

I won't tell DP, he might be a bit sad about that!

Guess they'll have a costume change, because in Mereen the women wear their left breast out.

There is quite a bit of violence, but as an avid Walking Dead fan I've become desensitised.

It's an 18 on DVD so probably not suitable for a 14 year old. He'd probably be embarassed watching it with you anyway.

The violence is horrid. I wince, and have to look away...I'm a proper wimp.

My favourite character is Tyrion Lannister, but I'm new to Game of Thrones.

I'm just starting book2 now. Seriously, anyone who hasn't read the books must read them. They make it so much easier to keep track of all the characters! Grin

Yep, the torture thing in Ep2 was a bit grim.

Tyrion is my favourite too (he's even better in the books).

I'm not sure that DH has a favourite, but he's probably going to be a bit (mock) miffed at any no-boobage malarky!

Oh yes I do love Tyrion Grin Blood hate Jamie Lannister though!

Anothing Walking Dead fan here and gory horror films too

Quite a few faves, Daenerys, Tyrion, Arya, Jon Snow...

I've read all the books which is driving DH mad. I keep nodding sagely when certain things happen on screen and drop the odd hint about various impending sticky ends.
