| Game Of Thrones Official "Raven" Tease (HBO) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAZzCFPcLoo&hd=1#ws) |
Filming is taking place primarily in Northern Ireland..
Everyone looks so fucking perfect TT___TT
David J. Peterson, a conlanger (or inventor of languages) worked with the Language Creation Society and the creators of 'Game of Thrones' to design a full Dothraki tongue for use on the upcoming HBO series. The details of his process (which are pretty fascinating) have been reported around the web and picked up by fan sites like Winter Is Coming and Westeros. Here on "Making Game of Thrones," David will be offering a series of crash courses in the Dothraki language, beginning with this introductory lesson

I can't remember, but has it ever been mentioned that those two were romantically involved in the book?There were hints, but they were only hints... In later books the hints become more obvious, but you still have to be paying attention. It's definitely canon though!
In a sense, Littlefinger's equating prostitution as analogous to politics in form. Brilliant analogy. Both a political player and a prostitute have to fallaciously flatter the people they serve in order to be successful in their respective professions. Whether its a fake orgasm or a fake vote of confidence, they need to gain the trust of their clients in order to get ahead.
One thing I noticed, and maybe it's just me, but Daenerys seems like she's gotten hotter since the beginning. :)2
...the two men who turned it into a TV series, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, as well as stars Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryan), Jason Momoa (Khal Drogo), Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) and Kit Harington (Jon Snow).

Winter is coming ... this spring. HBO has announced 'Game of Thrones' Season 2 will premiere in April 2012. Can you hold out six more months?
No specific premiere date has been announced.
Production of Season 2 has had some weather-related problems. In early September, five people were injured by high winds on the Northern Ireland set. Meanwhile, the cast has been growing as more book characters prepare to make their appearance in the TV show.
The first season of the hit HBO series was honored with 13 Emmy nominations. Peter Dinklage took home the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series and the show won for Main Title Design.
After much wait, the highly anticipated release date of Game of Thrones: The Complete First Season on DVD & Blu-ray has finally been revealed.
On March 6, 2012, the first installment of George R. R. Martin’s epic tale of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros will be making its way to home video, with a listed price of $79.98 for Blu-ray and $59.99 for DVD.
Included in the release will be all 10-episodes from the first season of Game of Thrones (seven of which will include audio commentaries), a 30-minute “Making Game of Thrones” featurette, a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the series’ memorable opening title sequence, plus many more.
For those that option for the 1080p Blu-ray release of Game of Thrones, you’ll find four additional extras not available on DVD. On top of an exclusive guide to Westeros (a slimmer version will be available on DVD), the high-def release will also include “Anatomy of an Episode,” which will provide an in-episode experience for viewers to see how they made the memorable sixth episode, “A Golden Crown.”
By the way, Atlus is making a Game of Thrones game coming out next February.
2 chapters to read tonight and I'll be up to 200 pages. I've been reading GoT for 5 days. :panic:
With the Struggle going on, I could probably finish both books and maybe a bit of Book 3 by the end of the month.
I need a life. :nervous

N.Ireland represent!! :D
Hmmm.....
So I have 4 months to complete A Game of Thrones and A Clash of Kings?
*Challenge Accepted
And start reading already! You'll get hooked from the first few chapters alone!
I still haven't read or seen this series yet. :doh:
Six new Game of Thrones RPG screenshots have appeared on the horizon to herald the arrival of Cyanide Studio's forthcoming A Song of Ice and Fire video game adaptation for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.
The shots depict the game's two main leads—Night Watch devotee Mors and the red priest Alester—in various states of combat; as well as a few familiar faces and environments plucked from George R.R. Martin's fantasy novels. As detailed in the announcement from UK publisher Focus Home Interactive, both Mors and Alester will venture forth in their own separate “chapters”, with Mors' journey taking him from his post at the Wall to King's Landing by way of the unfriendly territory known at the Gift, and Alester's travels taking him from Riverspring to the Red Keep. Much like the books upon which their adventures are based, both paths will eventually cross in a flurry of sword-play, stabbing, and possibly one or two beheadings.
Game of Thrones RPG is being developed for a spring 2012 release, with publishing duties falling to Focus Home Interactive for European fans, and Atlus North America for Western Westeros enthusiasts. Check out the game's progress on the recently launched website, or in the newest batch of images below:
Book 1 down, now starting on Book 2 and it has even 100 pages more :bleed eyes:
That is my proposal. Saturday & Sunday. Wut up?
So here are details on all the special features you will get in the Blu-Ray set (the DVD set does not have the animated histories, In-Episode Guide, Anatomy of an Episode or the Dragon Eggs).
The Complete Guide to Westeros
A comprehensive, interactive guide of the houses, histories, and lands of Game of Thrones. The guide is broken down into three sections:
Houses – Contains six gorgeously animated histories of the great houses as told by characters from the series: Robb and Bran (Stark), Catelyn (Arryn), Robert (Baratheon), Tywin (Lannister), Viserys (Targaryen) and Jeor Mormont (Night’s Watch). Also includes bios of each member of the house and their various servants and vassals.
Histories & Lore – Nineteen animated histories of the Seven Kingdoms, as told by various characters from the series. Certain histories have multiple characters telling the same story from differing viewpoints. Here is the full list of histories with the character(s) that narrate each:
The Children of the Forest, The First Men, and the Andals – Bran
The Age of Heroes – Bran
The Old Gods and the New – Bran and Catelyn
The History of the Night’s Watch – Jeor, Luwin, Tywin

Lands – Learn more about the regions and lands of Westeros and Essos in this interactive map.
In-Episode Guide
The same content that is available in the Complete Guide, only accessible via an on-screen menu while watching the episode. The content available changes based on what is happening in the episode and certain aspects are only accessible once they are “unlocked” by the action on screen.
Anatomy of an Episode
A view into how they filmed episode six of the first season, with various behind-the-scenes features and interviews popping up throughout the episode.

A 30-minute look into the making of Game of Thrones. New interviews with Nina Gold and her casting associate Robert Sterne, Ramin Djawadi, Tom Martin (construction manager), Adam McInnes (vfx supervisor), Jim Warren (animal handler), and others. Of course, we also get quotes from David & Dan, GRRM, the directors and much of the cast as well. Some new cast interviews too, from Rory McCann, Alfie Allen, Kate Dickie, Iain Glen, and Finn Jones. The feature covers all aspects of the production from casting to set building, stunts and visual effects, costumes and more.
More Behind the Scenes Videos
Character Profiles – Short videos where the actors talks about the characters they play. Same as the ones released prior to Season One airing.
From the Book to the Screen – GRRM and David & Dan talk about the challenges of adapting this story to television.

The Starks. Quick tempers. Slow minds.
Only available from select retailers while limited supplies last, the "Game of Thrones: Visuals from the RPG" art book stands as one of ATLUS' finest bonuses to date, offering sixty-four full color pages of sketches, renders, photos, and screenshots from the game accompanied by compelling text and commentary from the game's developers. The book will also include rare behind the scenes materials, like a portrait of the development team signed with a special message from author George R. R. Martin himself. The art book--measuring 8.5" wide and 11" tall--is hardbound, meticulously composed, and printed on premium stock, a true labor of love worthy of the series and its fans.
A browser-based Game of Thrones MMO is currently development, publisher Bigpoint has announced.
It's sharing development duties with Artplant - the same studio it teamed with on Battlestar Galactica Online.
All we know about the game so far is that it will be built using the Unity engine, though more details are expected out of the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco next week.

Stannis looks too soft XD I mean come on, he's almost smiling in that still. WHEN DOES STANNIS EVER SMILE? ROFL Oh well I'll get used to it
So it seems we missed out on episode 2 rewatch last weekend on IRC >_> Wanna do both ep 2 and 3 this weekend?
I have a question though concerning Margery Tyrell. She has a bigger part in the series as she had in ACoK, is this purely to up the boob factor for the show or does she play a bigger role in the next book?She does play a bigger role. ^^
She's lovely! I like those interviews too, I hope they get Jack Gleeson (Joffrey) on at one point, just to see if he's as big a cunt as he is on the show :lol: Speaking of cunt, how many times was it used in the last episode? It's like they were going for a record!
I was pretty sure it was stated relatively specifically who Jon's mother was in A Dance with Dragons.. Shall have to re-read to make sure :\Yup there definitely was something. But the question is, whose information do we trust? Is GRRM just trying to throw us off, since a lot of people have picked up on the theory? We'll only find out for sure once there is something absolutely certain in the books about it - or if nothing special ever happens concerning Jon's parentage LOL.
Yes, it's official.
HBO has ordered a third season of GAME OF THRONES.
Like the first two seasons, it will be ten episodes long. This one will cover (roughly) the first half or thereabouts of A STORM OF SWORDS, the third novel in the series.
I'll be writing the seventh episode, with the working title "Autumn Storms."
Full details can be found at a dozen other places on the web, so I won't rehash 'em here. Just wanted to pass along the news to my faithful readers.
We had a grab event tonight at the Bloomsbury Theatre. Now I'm tired. night, all.
^And what are you doing man?!
Hmmm........ needs more Unsullied.
The world premiere of the Game of Thrones Season 3 Trailer debuts tonight on Jimmy Kimmel Live! For more on Game of Thrones, go to http://itsh.bo/HpR8b1. (http://itsh.bo/HpR8b1.)
You're only going for the bathtub scene, admit it ;)

Curious to know how hipsters here found it.
(http://s3-ec.buzzfed.com/static/enhanced/webdr01/2013/4/5/18/enhanced-buzz-wide-31634-1365200910-21.jpg) (http://www.buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/whats-your-game-of-thrones-name)Brandon Westerling, the Red Priestess. Something seems off there :P
Spoiler warning: I become the King.
Haha, was the Iron Throne uncomfortable enough?
Season 4 premieres April 6th!!!!
On the one side, I want April to come fast, but on the other... I really need to read ADWD before that, and I don't think I can pull this off.
Somewhere off in the far distance, a dying man was screaming for his mother. “To horse!” a man was yelling in Ghiscari, in the next camp to the north of the Second Sons. “To horse! To horse!” High and shrill, his voice carried a long way in the morning air, far beyond his own encampment. Tyrion knew just enough Ghiscari to understand the words, but the fear in his voice would have been plain in any tongue. I know how he feels.
.
Ooo yeah, they play parts of that video here in the UK in a horrid TV show after GoT called "Thronecast" ... I just want to throw stuff at the annoying presenters XD
I'm just most curious of all to see *FUTURE BOOK SPOILERS* how Balon gets killed. If I remember, it was just mentioned by another character as he was just swept away in some storm with some vague illusions of a faceless man being the killer.[/spoiler] Also, Bran's vision in the show seemed to throw in a couple of hints on what could happen yet. That was definately a dragon flying over Kings Landing. That was also Snow (or was it ash) over the Iron Throne?
Back on topic, Dany sounds well sexy when she's speaking in Valyrian right?
Oberyn and Ellaria's orgy at the brothel, including male-Ros (Does he even have a name :?)?He introduced himself as Oliver to Loras in season 3
Tywin beginning to shape re-casted Tommen into a king he can control?to me, it felt more like a slap on Cercei's face. Like she uber failed in raising Joffrey
RE: latest episode, it must feel great to get paid for writing fanfiction in Westeros universe especially when GRRM has been so against fanfiction in the past... :P
Can someone provide juz what is changing from the book and the tv? It's getting confusing for us mortal people here... :P
They must've saved their season's budget for that one episode, the fights in some previous episodes were really bad.
Looked like something from Xena..They must've saved their season's budget for that one episode, the fights in some previous episodes were really bad.
What do you mean, the Sand Snakes fight was great...

Iwan Rheon discusses how he wants Ramsey to leave the series:
I’d love see him meet a spectacular end – God knows he deserves it. And it’s something that could happen at any time. That’s the nature of the show – no-one’s really safe. That said, I’ve just bought myself a flat in London so I hope that day doesn’t come too soon. […] But that day is definitely coming, no mistake about it – and I hope that when it does it’s epic, nasty and preferably dragon-related. He needs to go out with the bang.
