    Maybe the 8th and final season of Game of Thrones will help break my deadlock. On the flip side though, we have End Game coming out for Marvel.

    I'm starting to lean towards the blue pill... but that just might be GoT fever kicking in!

    With the release of the underwhelming final season of Game of Thrones, I've made my decision. Going with the Marvel, Star Wars & Walking Dead combo.

    I voted against the zombie show. Because zombies.

    Never seen more than a trailer for Game of Thrones so it had no effect.

    I wish Star Trek and that zombie thing switched places. Then it would be easy.

    Then it would be no fun. Such an easy decision would defeat the purpose of the exercise.

    Yeah I know.
    But it is basically Star Wars vs. Star Trek now, and we have that one already. :D

    DC and Marvel are pretty strong contenders, I wouldn't dismiss them. Recently, the MCU has been outperforming either of them. Game of Thrones was also a power player until they botched the last season. I'm not a huge Walking Dead fan, but hit has a large number of devoted fans.

    All big franchises.

    GoT is one of the great things of recent years (haven't watched the 8th season so I cannot judge that), but in my view it isn't even close to the 50+ year awesomeness that is Star Trek or the Legend that is Star Wars.

    As for Marvel vs. DC.... that's a personal thing of course, for me Marvel is way better, almost no competition there.

    The purpose is to pose and contemplate a choice between two well balanced group of franchises.

    Even if I find Game of Thrones Series 8 to be bad, it’ll still be miles better than the Walking Dead

    I recently finished the GoT 8th season and while I agree that it is bad _in comparison_ with seasons 1-6 I think it is still pretty good in many ways.

    Yep, it was somewhere in between.
    I wouldn't call myself a huge fan, but I liked most parts of GoT 1-6, then 7 was a step down, and 8 was another step down.

    I agree, but the poor end to the series makes the franchise a very far cry from the other power players in the groups (Star Wars, Star Trek, DC, Marvel). That said the Walking Dead is the weakest link in my opinion.

    The cinematography was still top notch (except for episode 3). The acting was great. Only the story and pacing sucked, but those are kind of important.

    Is that where they had the siege of Winterfell in too realistic night-time so that, like the defenders, you couldn't see a thing? ;)
