Jenny Doombringer Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I wish I had HBO. I won't be able to see it until the DVD set is released. At least I have all five books, so I already know pretty much what's going to happen. Though they always change a few things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just buy the box set later and it's fine IMO. I did that for Season Two and am now the proud owner of two pretty looking box sets next to my collection of hardcover main series novels and my bank where I save money up to buy a Longclaw replica next Montreal ComicCon Still, I'm really excited for this season, as Storm of swords is easily the best book in the series, and it's split. In. Two. Which means we won't have the Season 2 problem of 'not enough screentime'. Also? MAJOR SEASON 3 SPOILERS/RUMORS NO SERIOUSLY IF YOU HAVEN'T READ STORM OF SWORDS DON'T OPEN. I cannot wait to see the Red Wedding televised, because we all know that's going to be the final episode (Or maybe Episode 9). My family has never read the books but watches the show with me, and their favorite character is Robb Stark. Mwahahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's practically confirmed for episode 9 (some band tweeted that they had just finished filming a certain song for Episode 9 or something) Yes I am very very excited for this season and it's breaking records again again which is always nice.

Excellen Browning Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) I enjoyed the first season a lot, much less so the second one which seemd to make less sense and sometimes was just random to me. I hope the third season will be better. And more like the books, because second season took liberties I did not like at all. Like not doing the proper siege of King's Landing Edited February 25, 2013 by Daigoji Excellen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That entire book has so many badass things happening at once. Oh god I hope they actually show them sewing Grey Wind onto Robb's shoulders. It will ruin so many fanboys/girls fragile little minds.

They didn't have Tyrion's Chain, which is the big thing I can think of. Oh and It was Loras instead of Garlan Tyrell leading the Highgarden forces. I honestly can't recall if he was disguised as Renly or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau of Isaac Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Oh god I'm having so much fun talking about this with friends. They'll say who they dislike, who they like. It's great to hear them say how much they hate Tywin when I know about Roose Bolton. "You think Tywin's pretty ruthless eh?" with a smile is the most I've said. It is getting harder to resist as time goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Relatively speaking, Tywin is a fucking saint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau of Isaac Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 In terms of rulers he would probably actually be the person I most prefer. He's about order. He's not afraid to stoop to disgusting means to get the job done, but he's definitely about maintaining a well-oiled machine. If he were the guy in charge instead of psychos like Joffrey or drunks like Robert, the kingdom would probably be much better off. He's one of the better written "bad guys" of the story, I think.

Gone2Ground Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 that depends on which book you read True, I guess. Jeez, how much of this thread is spoilers? But yes, Tywin would be a competent dictator. Still a dictator, but actually good at his frigging job. Y'know. Not Joffrey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I can't wait till Joffrey uses that power from book 11 and transforms into a dragon so he can part the sea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Spoilers exist and I aint hiding them. Neither wedding will be the season finale or even close to it. Let's not forget Oberyn's death, Tyrion's escape or Arya's romp with the Hound. These are things that came after both weddings, never mind the Red Wedding.

Let's not forget Oberyn's death, Tyrion's escape or Arya's romp with the Hound. These are things that came after both weddings, never mind the Red Wedding. Seasons 3 and 4 encompass Book 3 (and perhaps some of 4), so the RW can easily be the Season 3 climax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrhesia Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 We could set up a seperate thread. I mean, the having-read-the-books crowd is basically nothing BUT spoilers, and it's kind of ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
