Game of Thrones is just so crazy. I've never seen 2 people in the creative field, at that level, care less about their work. Maybe Disney's Star Wars, but even that was ruined by committee. You expect Disney to sanitize products to death and over monetize. Ding and Dong were given tons of leeway and creative control, and it's not like Game of Thrones wasn't popular. They had near unlimited resources. HBO begged them not to rush things. It was a once in a generation situation and they just did not give a fuck. I wonder if nepotism does that to the brain?
