Game of thrones series on HBO - Page 4

sexy

read the series so many time

i even jerked off to the part where the that one young character got a bj on a boat

spoiler free baby

lol wut?

honestly i agree with all the criticisms here, especially wrt catelyn. i feel the love between ned and cat was an extremely important part of the early part of the books, you're bombarded with all thats happening and it adds a really important human element to keep things a little grounded. i didn't really feel that here and it seemed to come from cat's end, she seemed to talk to ned more like a servant than a wife in a lot of the scenes.

never the less, it was an excellent first episode. love the actors for pretty much every single role so far except cat and maybe robert (pictured him much taller).

I agree. I'm monstrously pissed. They better fit every single detail of a 77 chapter book that if dropped off the empire state building would knock the world off it's axis in a 13 hour series or whatever it is.

It's been one episode guys. It isn't going to be exactly like the book because it's simply impossible to due so. Whining about every single deviation is silly.

The first episode was absolutely fantastic.

No one's whining about "every single deviation." I for one completely enjoyed and support the series. But if the casting of one of the major characters doesn't sit right with you, isn't this the time and place to whine a little bit? Not to mention, the casting has nothing to do with the length of episodes. I mean... we're all fans here, we all love this world and the story to be told. What's a little quibbling over little shit among fans?

just watched this one... wow. this is, i think, way better than the borgias and camelot.

Just picked up the book today. Enjoying it a lot. Can already see how much more detailed the book is compared to the TV show.

Hodor? (read: really)

few thoughts on the books
+ Show Spoiler +

Just stumbled upon the first book today while at the store. Will I ruin anything reading the book and watching the show at the same time? Or should I just knock out the book before watching?

^ u seem to be very convicted on your beliefs here hehe and i won't argue with ya .. i think in the end it just depends on what kind of literature one is used to reading

but

+ Show Spoiler +

i made the comment on the killing of heroes but it really isnt important.. in the end its the authors choice to kill.. it was very obvious from the get go that there was a trap being made by the freys after the wolf wanted to attack as soon as they arrived.. the author has a choice there for stark to get a gut feeling something is wrong and leave/or do something about it or let him be caught in the trap... its a choice and we can see he likes to go on the killing of heroes way which is interesting in a sense but also a bitch for the reader for we spent chapters/books getting to know the guy to see him die and start fresh with someone else sucks

thats not really my issue with the book though

i usually avoid fantasy books because it tends to be a compilation of good ideas ripped off and put together into something 'new' but in a poorly to semi-poorly written fashion.. id say that this book is in the top of the range in terms of quality but i personally feel its a bit lacking and am getting a bit tired/bored of reading it

maybe im just mad they killed the true king of the north FFS!!

i love the midget. i think he's gonna be one of the good guys

I'd read the book first before watching the show. I don't want to spoil anything but the way I see it is that by the time you finish the book, depending on how fast a reader you are, you can download all the episodes and go on a marathon . Best way to watch any series IMO. Waiting a week for a new episode for a great show is the nutlow .

The girl on girl scene was nice.

Great episode.

This episode flowed a lot better than the first, IMO. The actor playing Joffrey is perfect because he emits the inner bitch.

But was it just me or does Cersei seem a bit subdued? I always imagined her to be a scathing bitch whenever she was angry but I could barely hear her - especially during the scene where Arya was brought to the king.

Oh and Tyrion just owns. Perfect actor to play him.

I wonder how the direwolves will look later on in the season or in the next. They said they are as big as horses when fully grown.

Ya actor for Tyrion is great.

2nd episode was really good.
