    Re: Game of Thrones

    I always knew Charles Dance was inhuman but this is ridiculous ..

    if you notice the giveaway ,it looks like it all takes place on the Millennium Falcon in the future , does this mean Tywinn is the only survivor after the books end ?

    With Gregor it would be bit boring I think because it would be tank vs tank and no trash talking or jibes ,just straight up metal on metal Conan.

    Gregor vs Hodor !! now that would be some fight

    Hordor is clearly the superman in the show holding back his powers , the 1 true King , just wait and see , it will be like that Indian in One flew over the Cuckoos nest , hes got them all fooled , and will reveal his true identity at the end !!
    Hodor Hodor Hodor.

    True, i guess i'm a sucker for revenge fights, for example, i want that bastard Walder Frey dead.
    But i think the writer of the books isn't objective to a certain house.

    Loved Bronn's fight in season 1, would like to see more of him fighting.

    Haha Hodor. If he was superman, why didn't he save Winterfell from being sieged
    And would you really want a king who can only say Hodor?

    The best I can hope for is some back story for him, but that probably won't happen since he can't even speak words (other than Hodor). I want him to be a child of one of the Giants. Or maybe I want to see zombie Hodor. Nah, what I want is Walder Frey's head on a pike.
    Have you seen the Season 3 finale? (If you haven't, then don't read the spoiler)

    Spoiler:Did you see what the did to Robb's body... so sad..

    Re: Game of Thrones

    Finally got caught up so can post in here

    Penultimate episode was WOW. Season Finale felt a bit michael jackson Earth Song for my liking

    Still loved it and cant wait till next year. Although I have now got the books for my kindle so I`m wondering do I sack off the rather large pile of other books I have to read and read GOT instead....

    Re: Game of Thrones

    Watched season 3 in on sitting yesterday with the fiancee, epic might not be a big enough word to cover it!

    When the show eventually finishes I think I'll sit down with the books like a lot of people will, until then it's going to be another few years of telling people to shut up if they try to spoil anything!

    Yes , I didnt know it was his body at first .

    Hodor becoming the ultimate tyrant king right under everyone elses nose would be epic but he needs his own battle chant or song first. and an army of giants to call on and chant his name..

    Re: Game of Thrones

    I'm not sure whether to start reading them before finishing the TV adaptations. I have the books, unread, and have watched seasons 1-3 with great pleasure. I didn't read the whole thread, so I don't know if it's been said, but Y'gritte is enough to turn any man Wildling

    I think it's best to watch the adaptation, then read the book. If you read the book, then watch the adaptation, you get annoyed that they left bits out. I.E. I watched Trainspotting, loved the film, then read the book, and enjoyed the extra detail available in that.
    If I'm correct, the first three series are 1 series per book, and they're not small books, so it might be that by the time you've read all 3, the 4th series will be out.

    Re: Game of Thrones

    Hang on, I thought book 4 was when they started splitting in two?

    I haven't seen the 3rd series yet, so I don't know where it ended...

    Edit: No, you're right. HBO split the 3rd book into 2. At this rate there'll be more episodes than Lost!
