All things "Song of Ice and Fire" (New HBO series - Game of thrones)

Who's watching this tonight?

I've been a hardcore fan of the books since I first picked up A Game of Thrones 15 years ago.

Now, the TV show is premiering tonight and A Dance with Dragons is coming out this summer (tentative). Amazon.com "A Dance with Dragons"

HBO: Game of Thrones: Homepage

They really did the book justice. I'm glad it's an HBO show and not crammed into a movie trilogy.

Liked the books too, read the first couple when they came out. Above average. So i was a bit ambivalent to the show since i figured it could ruin it. But it was better than i was expecting it to be. When you read the books first than it takes a while to get use to seeing the actors faces as opposed to the ones you had imagined in your mind. Fortunately it was over a decade since i read them so i had forgotten the details. There are a few things you notice different but it is expected to be when converted to the screen.

I think an HBO series is about right for it since they can have the complex details of the politics involved. If it were a movie(s) the story would of been cut down and they probably would not have been R rated which this story needs to be.

Game of Thrones!!??

Can't believe noone has really said anything about what could possibly be HBO's best show in a long time.

Me and all my friends are hooked, anyone else a fan? if you aren't watching this show, you should be.



dude who plays Khal Drogo (the leader of a massive race of warriors) is also playing the new Conan.


SERIOUSLY, WATCH THIS SHOW!

I was just looking yesterday to see if Zilvia had a Game of Thrones thread!

Show is good! I'm loving the intrigue of medieval politics and combat! But the hint of mysticism flirting around each episode is whats really exciting me!

For real. That molten gold shit was raw as hell! Dude was like "oh I can't spill blood in the sacred city? I got other ways of killing your ass without spilling blood..."

That is one seriously creative killer.

Sidenote: Everytime I see Lord Stark, I want to yell FOR GONDOR!!!!

Boromir ROCKS.
