I think this has gone from "it'd be neat to see this onscreen", to this might actually be a show worth watching.

I'm not watching any more of these. They look f'ing AMAAAZING though. I have added the premier date to my Google Calendar

Looks sweet, shame they'll never have an ending as he'll never write another book.

Looks so good, production values are off the chain

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #250 on:** March 07, 2011, 01:22:26 PM »

Guessing they haven't finished the sound/score yet; when Marllion slaps the table you'd expect some type of sound.

Catelyn looks much better than I thought she would initially; still liked the original actress more (she looked exactly like I had imagined Catelyn) but this one seems fine, and early reports suggest she knocks the role out the park.

Finally started reading the book. About 100 pages in. Like it quite a bit already.

"Incest level"

Game of Throne

Sex

Tons. Incest sex, reluctant sex, little person sex, sapphic grinding, party guest sex

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #257 on:** March 28, 2011, 12:17:05 AM »

sapphic grinding is the word of the day

HBO understands the beauty of scissoring

Diunx · « **Reply #258 on:** March 28, 2011, 12:18:48 AM »

I like the fact that the show has dwarf sex, I was afraid I would have to wait till season 2 of Spartacus to enjoy that on my tv.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #262 on:** March 28, 2011, 09:08:03 AM »

Yes. And it was good. I like the world he's created, and the whole multiple viewpoints gimmick, even if some of the female ones are awful. The female characters in general are kinda terrible.

At least Daernys finds redemption at the end.

GRRM is ballsy with his willingness to kill off characters, but I've heard this comes back to bite him later on. Guess I'll see. I can definitely understand why people are ready to end themselves if the next book never comes out, as I imagine he ends each installment much like he ended the first.

I'm really looking forward to the show. Just the few clips I've seen definitely influenced my reading, as I imagine Eddard Stark as Sean Bean the entire time -- which was great.

If the HBO video doesn't work, I'm sure a youtube version will be up very soon.

Amazing. Gonna watch it again

They changed the prologue but certainly made it more thrilling. dayuum

Pirates are usually quite fast with HBO shows, don't know what the fuck is going on with this preview.

I'm hoping they are slow by a day. I have my robotics final on the 18th.

Just watched the preview on the incredibly slow and choppy hbo stream, was fucking great the body parts arranged as some some of symbol was pretty awesome.

Nope, two more, so the last one should come out roughly nine years after Martin dies.

Kinda torn about whether to start re-reading before/while the series runs. I have a ton of other stuff calling me so probably won't. But the urge is strong.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #282 on:** April 05, 2011, 12:23:18 AM »

I've just been listening to the audio books, which are really good. Roy Dotrice elevates them from a simple reading to something quite entertaining. Shame his health forced him out of GoT, he would have been a great Prycelle. I wonder if the DVDs/Blu Rays will feature some footage of him in the part.

Diunx · « **Reply #283 on:** April 05, 2011, 12:50:14 AM »

That should be the correct version. There are a couple other e-books out there with different narrators.

I shouldn't be listening to this book at work, I got a raging boner during dany's first sex scene

to bad I have only being able to download the first part since my fucking phone company still hasn't come to fix my internet, part two is downloading pretty fast on my neighbor's connection so hopefully the connection won't drop and I'll be able to download a couple more parts before bed.
