Not to watch something just because DH thinks its the best thing ever?

AIBU or is DH for getting in a huff with me?

DH is massively into Game of Thrones. I have never watched any of it, it's not my kind of thing at all. There's a battle scene called the battle of the bastards which he has gone on about several times about how it's the best thing he's ever seen on TV and it's like Saving Private Ryan but medieval. I'm in the middle of working this evening and he says, "Come and watch for 10 minutes" because it's this scene he loves. I say, "I'm not interested" and he insists, saying, "It's only 10 minutes" and "But it's like Saving Private Ryan but medieval" I point out that I wasn't that interested in Saving Private Ryan either. I'm just not that bothered about watching people killing each other.

Now he's got all huffy with me because I wouldn't stop working and watch it. If I asked him to watch something I was finding fascinating or lovely e.g. the Three Girls documentary, the film Lion, he absolutely wouldn't watch it with me. So why should I watch his stupid battle scene?

I love GOT but wouldn't expect someone to watch it if they weren't bothered.

Also definitely looking up Suzette Stitch immediately....😂
