    They have already started mixing books and will continue im sure through the season breaking the story up different than the books. They also need to consider the children characters and how fast they will grow through the years. should be interesting.

    Well, considering they've done a good job aging Arya and Sansa appropriately (the actors are the same age, but don't look it), that they aged Robb, Jon, Theon and Daenerys into adulthood, and that
    Spoiler:
    everyone else pretty much fucking dies
    , I don't have too many worries on that front. I think it will work out.

    When did they mix books? I have a hard time remembering which action happens in COK and SOS - they kind of blur - so I might not have noticed.

    just basic character viewpoints not used until later books have been used already and other subtle views.
    I don't see how they can keep from mixing books three and four in the next 2 seasons and keep the shows continuity.

    The picture above is funny because...

    Spoiler:
    When it's all said and done, I think it will be Danny and Jon Snow ruling the realm as husband and wife. I truly believe that Jon Snow is not Ed's son. I believe Jon is the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark. There's a lot of little hints everywhere. Since Dany is Rhaeger's sister and Jon is Rhaeger's son, that would mean he has a great claim to the throne. Since Dany lived with the idea that she had the best claim to the throne, it's only natural that the two would wed to create a powerful rule. As we know, the Targaryen's practice incestuous marriage and have for centuries.


    I could be wrong, but there is a whole section of people that believe as I do.

    There is. I think Erin Henry and I discussed this on here a while back. I think you have a point. The question is, ......well, i won't *ask* a question, I will jusy say the dragon has three heads.

    Maybe it's something you know already.

    he was only stabbed, not killed. And tyrion is the third head as that is the reason his father hated him. He was from another man. dun dun dun.


    please nobody ask GRRM if this is going to happen as I think this would make the perfect ending and I don't want him to have to change it if he really is planning this. I will sleep better at night if this is how it ends
    I know the writers of lost kept changing the plot because fans were figuring out what they 'were' going to do and they ruined the end as far as I am concerned. anyway I probably just worry to much

    As long as you have read all 5 books, you are free to read it. If you are following the show, it's best to avoid it.

    Tito:

    Spoiler:
    There is no way Jon Snow is dead. Even if he is, there are ways to bring him back. We've seen this in numerous ways so far in the series. Also, while I'm talking about the dead coming back to life, get ready for Zombie Mountain. Yup, you heard that right. I believe that Qybyrn has created a frankenstein like monster out of the Mountain. I think he is the one that is hinted to fight for Cersei.

    StillServant, this happened already, he became of the Kingsguard. Also,
    Spoiler:
    I doubt Snow is dead, and I've also thought Tyrion is the third head, I'm pretty sure in the books it describes him as having lighter colored hair than his siblings.

    I could be wrong
    Spoiler:
    and my memory might be faulty, but I thought we were introduced to Ser Robert. A huge, silent member of the kingsguard. I don't remember them ever stating it was The Mountain for sure. It was certainly implied and everybody thinks it's him, but I wasn't aware it was definitive. Did it ever state for certain Ser Robert is The Mountain. I might have missed it. I will have to go back and read it again.

    I tend to think
    Spoiler:
    Daenerys, Tyrion and Aegon will be the three heads, with Jon playing some other part. He wouldn't break his vows for Winterfell, he won't break them for anything else. Besides, he's got Ghost for his magical animal deal.

    And yes, I know he got stabbed, but he got stabbed about five feet away from a red priestess. He's coming back.

    Alternately, Tyrion and/or Aegon is going to bite it early on (PLEASE not Tyrion) and Jon will fill in for the third head.

    Qyburn is the one who brought him in, Cersei asked Qyburn if he was ready. I'm 99 percent sure of that. Ergo, frankenmountain.

    I have just started watching the show but have read all of the books already. The show seems good but it will be tough to live up to the books.

    On a related note, Martin was just at Texas A&M this past weekend for the opening of an exhibit featuring his manuscripts and early writings that one of A&M's libraries has collected. The night before he hosted a feast and afterwards he had a screening of the first episode of season three. Unfortunately I could not attend but because I helped setup for the event I was still able to get a signed copy of A Game of Thrones and a booklet from the grand opening of the exhibit. I may post a pic later.

    (Here is the link to the exhibit event:

    Nothing? No one? You fuckers asleep?

    Let me go first. LOVED the series premiere. Loved everything about it. Love Tyrion and Cersei's scenes. Love Bronn wanting to fight the kingsguard. Loved the Dragons, loved the intro. Loved Jon's scenes. Adored Daenerys's scenes. I can't wait until she speaks Valyrian. Was really looking forward to Brienne and Jamie, but I guess that'll wait. Wondering about the kids, too.

    All in all, so glad I watched this before Walking Dead, that show was a disappointment.

    I just found out my tuition is providing HBO and Showtime for students living on campus, while I can't afford cable... because I am paying tuition.

    Which is my way of saying, I can't watch it yet.

    Sorry, Ka-mai. Do none of your friends have HBO? You can probably find a stream of it online. On FB i liked a page called live streams or something like that that posts streams of shows. That's how I watched Walking Dead from work last night.

    My friend sent me a link to a website, but I'm afraid of viruses. Tomorrow I have some free time, so I may brave it.

    On the bright side, I heard HBO may soon offer subscriptions without buying 300 channels. I would be all over that, as long as they use my money to keep making GOT awesome.
