1296065 2012-08-22 00:53:00 Seen it. it is not any worse than most movies, just play it later on. Gobe1 (6290)
1296066 2012-08-22 01:41:00 Wonder if they will do the same for Camelot when it airs. Saw it last year . It's a bit raunchy in places..

Guess they want everyone to subscribe to Sky to get the uncut versions..

1296067 2012-08-22 04:27:00 Take out the sex and violence and all you're left with is a fairly ho-hum fairy story.

And, from memory, some of the raunchy bits are accompanied by dialogue which is necessary for the story to make sense!

I agree with dugimodo and Gobe1!!

That's probably fair, maybe it's what the scenes are about rather than what you see. Game of Thrones has more frequent nudity and simulated sex scenes than true blood and some of them are depicting incest. Of course anyone with a brain knows the actors aren't actually related and that it's not real, but the censors still feel the need to protect us from it.

I don't like censorship in general, but I kind of get why public broadcast TV has to do it to some extent because there's no telling who will see it. Myself I'd just say play it after 9:30 and leave it up to the public to decide for themselves. People who get outraged by the content of shows should simply not watch them and leave those of us who enjoy it alone.

1296070 2012-08-22 04:45:00 +1 Dugi, so how good is Camelot?? Gobe1 (6290)
1296071 2012-08-22 04:55:00 Camelot is pretty good, it had the misfortune of coming out at the same time as Game of Thrones and having a similar feel and it suffers from the comparison because it's not as good. I still enjoyed it though, my only negative comment is the choice of Actor for arthur, he does a good job and I know they wanted a young depiction of Arthur but I personally found him not regal enough.

It does have some very good actors in it though, one or two of which you'd recognise more from movies than TV which is unusual I think. And like many modern retellings it changes the classic story around to suit the series and comes up with a couple of inventive new back stories to explain the legend.

Take it or leave it. It only lasted one season..
