Noticed a lack of nudey bits from the blonde dragon lady as well this series. She couldn't wait last year now she's gone all frigid.

[Edward.]

You'd imagine that regional custom would demand that she had to have one breast exposed.

[Edward.]

I was thinking about her being 13 when she was getting shagged by Drogo. I don't know if anyone else knows but they don't name their children in certain areas until they are two. As it's seen as unlucky It's called their name day, so I would imagine she was actually 15? Doesn't make it much better but....

[SAXON]

Got hold of series 1 because of this thread and I must say but it is a bloody good program. Will watch all of the first series before I start on the second series.

That's the lot from north of the Wall - she's a Southern princess.

 

Having not seen any of the series, I assume they've added a good five years onto most of the character's ages? Otherwise Paedobear would be all over it like a rash...

[Edward.]

Fair enough I wasn't sure if it was a thing they did all over.

[Edward.]

...and I have two 13 year old daughters.

[Kevin D]

Parts, the Lannister's predominantly, of that last episode were outstanding.

 

The delivery on "Is that a woman?!?" was a thing of beauty.

[Hand Shandy]

I finished Dance with Dragons about a week ago.

 

What the fucking fuck?

[Edward.]

What the fucking fuck?

 

I read somewhere that he is going to finish some of those storylines in the new book The Winds of Winter.

And today's award for doing the bleeding obvious goes to...

[Carvalho Diablo]

Never read any of the books, and I only started watching GOT because of you lot raving about how good it was (thanks btw), but I have got to say, John Snow - what a fucking blert.

 

What a total fucking virgin spastic that bastard is.

 

Is he really meant to be so fucking thick, or is the guy who plays him genuinely mongy ?

 

Black Watch knob cheese.

[Redder Lurtz]

He is a right fucking tool CD. How hard is it in days of yore like GOT to take an enemy's head off with a sword regardless of the gender. The big soft twat.

Ha ha, dead right.

 

Fuckin Spartacus wudda killed her THEN fucked her.

I read somewhere that he is going to finish some of those storylines in the new book The Winds of Winter.

 

Trying desperately not to give anything away, it was more the fact that he spent so long developing one character's storyline and then killed them off.

 

I know he likes to keep people on their toes and isn't afraid to kill characters off, but I can't really see who is going to pick that storyline up and how?

 

And it's a pretty big one...

[silverlining]

I could also just read the books which i have.....But i decided to hold back on the second book "A clash of kings" until after i have watched the series. I'd normally read the book first but decided to change that for this series as i only bought the books after watching series 1.

 

Well, obviously I read the books first, as I have an unerring talent for knowing what will be cool and popular before it actually is cool and popular, but i don't think it ruins the enjoyment regardless of the order.

 

Fact is, though, that there's now 5 books and series 3 of the TV series has only just been announced, and apparently only gets as far as halfway through A Storm Of Swords, so you'll be waiting a long time for it to ever catch up with the novels. If it ever does.

 

So just read the books.

I'm halfway through the last one so I'm trying not to read that.

Some of the books have been split in two too, so does that means additional series?

[silverlining]

No idea. Only the paperbacks have been split, for the 3rd and 5th books.

 

I suppose it depend how much they're willing to chop out. Certainly feels like this second series is getting through "Clash Of Kings" pretty quickly, and I'm not sure of the veracity of the story about the third TV series only doing half of the 3rd book. Could be bollocks.

 

I just worry about how much the audience interest will hold up for, what, at least seven (expensive) series?

 

If audience interest wanes, which it almost always does, HBO won't bankroll it just to get to the end. Although I suppose the ad revenue from Sky and DVD sales may prop it up if that does happen.

We don't know definitely that said character is dead. All we know is that they were stabbed four times and did not feel the last one. Given that the character's secret history has been hinted at but not yet revealed I doubt very much they are dead.

He's not dead. He's going to be the real Azai fucking whatever it is, that Melisandre claims Stannis is.

 

Deffo.

Getting awfully close to spoilers there sl...

[JagSquared]

Enjoying the series and started the first book and it's superb so far I have been immensely impressed at the pacing and readability of the first book.

 

Back to the tv show, no way were bran and rickon caught by theon but all he will do now is piss off the Starks and his own family.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Just watched the latest episodend once again, Jon Snow - what an impotent, sackless sack of shit.

 

Take that fucking sword off the soft shite, melt it down and make a spoon or a paperweight or summat.

 

Puff.
