What Did Clay and Buck Say About House of the Dragon?
13 Sep 2022
On this show, weโre Game of Thrones fans. We loved it.
The final season was deeply disappointing, but we gave the new one a try. Itโs House of the Dragon, and itโs pretty good.
It hit the mark far, far better than the Lord of the Rings prequel. You remember the original, right?
Now itโs The Rings of Power. How can you spend so much money on something and have it suck so much?
J.R.R. Tolkien has enthralled Buck since the third grade.
Not suprisingly, he loved all that Dungeons & Dragons nerd stuff.
Oh, and there was a cartoon, too, as was the style at the time.
So taking such a rich and vibrant world of story and ruin it? Donโt waste your time. The Lord of the Rings thatโs streaming on Amazon is trash.
Buck, by the way, has given up on nagging Clay to watch Peaky Blinders . It just makes him too sad.
The book Endurance, however, Clay picked up on Buckโs recommendation and it was fantastic.
By the way, season 5 of Cobra Kai is out now on Netflix.
For those of you out there who enjoyed the Karate Kid movies in the 1980s, your kids today are going to love it.
The โ80s showed how to make movies, and weโre seeing how you can still take great story, great characters and add to it. This was done really well in Top Gun: Maverick.
It was done really poorly in the all-female Ghostbusters.
No, it wasnโt sexism that made it flop. It was just terrible. It sucked.
The pitfalls are clear. For example, Black Panther 2 is gonna come out, and if you donโt say itโs the greatest movie ever, youโre gonna be racist, as you were with the first one.
Itโs like when Buck didnโt care for Hamilton, and he just thought, โThis isnโt good. People can yell at me all day about how much they love it. I donโt care.โ
Speaking of classic shows, do you remember Quantum Leap?
Well, itโs getting a reboot.
Sadly, Gen Z and below have not known the greatness of that show or of MacGyver.
That could definitely be rebooted again, although they tried in 2016.
Murder, She Wrote, too. These are endless reboot opportunities.
And weโre still holding out hope for Hollywood to dramatize the Lewis and Clark expedition. Itโd be a huge smash hit.
