A Game of Thrones - TV Show Discussion Thread

Why would I want to read spoilers?

[Dinner]

I haven't read the books but I like Dragon Chick's chances.

Joffrey need to die in the most grueome manner possible.
Stannis is a dick.
Reny is a smaller dick.
Iron Isles guy is delusional.

SPOILERS!

Spoiler:

Joffrey gets poisoned by little finger
Stannis is a major dick but not as bad as the others. At the end of book 5 we don't know if he is alive or not.
Renly is a usurper with dreams of glory and generally great at getting people to love him but he sucks at all things military and Melisandra kills him most evilly.
The Iron Isles guy is delusional but he dies shortly too. He lives just long enough to plunge everyone into war before falling off of a bridge.

[Dinner]

I guess so, but obviously one of the Dothraki was going to lead them across the Narrow Sea for Dany.

Naw, she's getting further and further away from the narrow sea so I'd guess the Iron Islands' fleet would take her there from the west side instead of the east. I mean it makes sense since Theon's uncle has such a hard on for marrying her.

I guess so, but obviously one of the Dothraki was going to lead them across the Narrow Sea for Dany. I guess it won't be Rakharo then.

The funny thing is that show people were concerned about book people spoilering things, but it appears the show is spoilering things for the book series .

And, I guess it is now explicitly stated (wasn't in the books, though implied) that Stannis and Melissandre are screwing.

[Koyaanisqatsi]

Not necessarily. Other than Drogo, they've treated the Dothraki as interchangeable throughout the series, so somebody else can easily take his (Jhogo's) place.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Wow... That is a big change. Well, I guess that means he won't be doing anything all that important further on in the book series.

[Guynemer]

Oh, and Rakharo dies? That's a big change.

[Guynemer]

Seems likely that Shireen, Patchface, and Jacelyn Bywater are further characters who have not made the cut.

[Guynemer]

That rabbit is dynamite!

[Dinner]

Remember. Easter is coming.

I hope that recipe works for you.

It's good with almonds.

No wonder the show is so expensive to produce...

HBO pays for Game Of Thrones fans to get tattooed by the House of Lannister

Here's a pretty rad event for Game Of Thrones that we're supremely sad we missed. HBO paid for a collection of die-hard Game Of Thrones fans to drop by the Wooster Street Social Club for free tattoos. They could be inked with one of five sigils from the warring families of Westeros. And they turned out totally awesome!

Hundreds of fans showed up, but only the first fifty were let inside. That is one gorgeous Kraken.

The five sigils available were (starting on the left, going clockwise) the House of Lannister's Lion, a Stag from the House of Baratheon, the Dire Wolf from the House of Stark, the 3-headed Dragon from the House of Targaryen, and the Kraken from the House of Greyjoy.

You can watch a video of one brave soul getting the House of Baratheon crest tattooed on his arm forever over at BuzzFeed.

That looks more like a Stark dire wolf than a Lannister lion.

The torrents are packed.

I use streaming video. The void created after the Megavideo take-down has been filled.
