That is true. It has definitely got a breed of choppiness to it. Thing is, I'm not sure how much of a problem that is. It is possible to pull off a sort of mincing of prose styles. They're not doing it perfectly, but also not horribly.
I'm an insane dialogue hawk, but there's only so much I can say about this show's dialogue because the torrents I'm getting dont have CC so I'm missing about 1/3rd of the words. One thing I do know for sure is that the dialogue is 100x better than Battlestar Galactica. It's also better than the original Star Wars which didn't kill that trilogy
Like I said, dialogue is one of the things I pay the most attention to due to being born with a hearing impairment and how that disability has actually enhanced my minds focus on audio things because I have to pay more attention to it in order to get by, but I can't say too much about GoT dialogue due to no CC. So you may be absolutely right. The second episode smoothed out a lot of the dialogue that was disjointed in the first ep, and I haven't found reason to complain since. But I'll give it a strong look over in the next ep
I'm repeating myself (as usual), but your analysis is right, and I noticed it myself, but I'm not sure how much of a problem it really is. It is possible to mix and match antiquated and conventional dialogue. But it has to be done right, which I'm not sure if they're doing
