  • Game of Thrones

    Does anybody like the TV-show as much as I do?

    Sile - impoverished free merchant, looking for her own happiness
    Lindi - wandering bard and actress

      I have had several people tell me the show is similar to The Borgias... which is currently the only show I am watching...

      Very big Jeremy Irons fan.

        Game of thrones is great, still trying to figure out if some characters are bad or good...
        My to-be toon:
        Shafiq Al-Mawt: Zakharan myrkulite.

        My tomb of old toons:
        Cruven Schlachten - Blood Reaver of Garagos, Blackwood Company Elite, Hellstrom Head of Security
        Marcus Waynard- Horned Harbinger, fear his best bud Frank!... and Jim, Bob, Sue, and Jane...
        Davlamin Frostfoot - Frosty Snowflake, the Frozen Fist of Auril, sworn enemy of the Second Wind fire pit.

            i find the appeal (at least the novels) is how the characters are complex with many shades of grey (they are all pretty much bastards in their own way). Oh and the brutality the author shows to his lead characters on a regular basis. Very Brave!

            The tv series looks amazing. i thought its screening was why sundren was quiet last week!

                Word of the Day: auspicious

                This is an extremely auspicious TV show compared to all other shows.

                  Love the books. The complex characters are awesome. No one is just "good" or "bad". You might think so, but then you come to understand their motives and can see why they did (or didn't do) what they did.

                  Only seen ep 1 so far and really enjoyed it. Stays pretty true to the books.

                    Sorry to necro this thread. Anyone looking forward to series 3? (out on sky atlantic in about a week) Lots to look forward to for anyone who has read the books.

                    Interested to see who they cast as Oberyn martell

                      I've only seen season one, but I thought the show was pretty good. I still stand to the opinion that the show isn't half what the books are. I am at the end of 4 now and I want MORE.

                          I remember you saying Oliver Ironhide was loosely based on Sandor Glegane minus the spectacular aversion to fire
