Thanks!

The best is when they ask questions because they think they missed something. I am all "no you didn't miss anything really. It wasn't on the show but here is what it means...."

One big thing is Gilly's baby being switched in the book but not the show. Sorry if that's a spoiler for the show RRRM (by the way that is your new nickname Roseanne)

Yep! Absolutely!

No official date has been announced although I saw "121 days to go" on Facebook. Not sure if that is correct or not.

I do know they said the premiere would be in the Summer not the Spring because they neededto film during the winter time.

Lol

I am surpised you have never seen it accidentally before anywhere.

Haha!!

Cuz good things don't need to be big; look at Tyrion there missy Roseanne RR Martin.

Roseanne RR Martin!

I have no idea what that even is???

If you want threads set up let me know and I can do some research.

I am in! I started The Game of Kings once but I got sidetracked with crap and set it aside.

But now is the time. Come on March 1st!

Is anyone soon ready to read this? I was in the library and saw it so I grabbed it. I have the ebook as well in case I dont get to it within a month.

If anyone else is going to soon read it I will do it at the same time.

Yes I agree Roseanne. I watched the show, read the books, then rewatched. (A bit of overlap but basically that's what I did)

As I started reading I soon learned that I had no understanding of what the hell I had been watching on my first go at the show.

I went to "The Great Wall" and here is my mini review:

All I knew about it going in was it had Matt Damon and "Oberyn Martell" from Game of Thrones. Had I known any more than that I would not have wanted to go at all. So I am glad I knew no more. It was about some creatures trying to attack the watchers of The Wall. I quite enjoyed it. It had kick ass female characters too. I wish I went to the 3D version. It would have been even better. It was action packed. I give it 6 out of 10!

Has anyone else seen it? What did you think?

No, me either.

This was sort of interesting. I am not sure which books they are referring too though. Mine sure as hell had no pictures!

Any ideas?

I hope that link works properly. It is a video.

They are making it into a movie too. Not sure if you knew that or not.

Yeah. That is a good idea. I should have done that to start with.

I am planning to re-watch Game of Thrones season 6 starting tonight. That will help.

I started The House of the Scorpion a little while ago. I think it is going to be pretty good. It seems WTFish.

I guess I just needed to whine and complain for a bit.
