Game of Thrones TV series

Who is enjoying season 2? Anyone?

[Dustin]

I haven't seen the series at all, Josiah. We don't have HBO..

[[deleted user]]

Oh. Well I am getting impatient (view spoiler)[ Renly needs to die already (hide spoiler)]

[Char]

I am loving the series. It is surprising me at how well done it is. Peter Dinklage (the Imp) is filling out the role superbly. He struts across the screen.
It seems that the role was tailor made just for him.
And yeah SPOILER*****************

Renly needs to die. He's on my nerves.

[Donna]

I have yet to get into this series...plus I don't have HBO but I have seen the first season out on DVD. I have yet to start the book series but do plan to as soon as I finish the novel I am reading now. Is this series any good? And does it follow the books at all?

[Char]

The first season on HBO perfectly mirrors the books, except the Lannisters are blond and not redheads.
The second season just started and is continuing to follow along with the book.
There are a few secondary characters that do not seem to be making any appearances in the show. Probably due to time constraints.
Other than those few differences the show is awesome!

Yeah, we're halfway through the season and (view spoiler)[ renly hasn't died! (hide spoiler)]

[Donna]

Well I will just have to wait to watch any of it until I have at least finished book 1 so as not to spoil a lot. Thanks for telling me I appreciate it very much

[[deleted user]]

Donna, you should definitely read as soon as possible

[Donna]

I am going to read it next as soon as I finish Lonesome dove (which I am half way through now).

[Char]

Donna, I envy all that good reading ahead of you. : )

[Donna]

Can't wait to get started heard so many good praises about the series.

I am wondering about Jojen and Meera Reed...

[Donna]

I was just informed that the game "Game of Throwns" is going to be out on Tueday. I have it on pre-order. Yes I am a game junkie also...so I had to try it. Will take me awhile to play it for I am in the middle of another game and I would like to finish reading the first book before playing also..

A game of game of thrones? Awesome

That's pretty cool.:) Thank you for sharing.

I just got the latest Rolling Stone magazine. Peter Dinklage is looking good on the cover. He rules!

[Char]

I am so excited!!
The last two episodes of GOT are coming up. From the previews they showed last night, it looks like both episodes will be focused on the war. I've read in a few spots online that these are some of the most expensive and intense battle scenes ever shot. It should be great to watch!

[[deleted user]]

It will be!

[Char]

Last night's show was AWESOME! The invasion begins.

[[deleted user]]

I know! And the wildfire looks awesome!

[Char]

I know! It did look awesome, didn't it?

Do you think Tyrion will (view spoiler)[ lose his nose? (hide spoiler)] ?

[[deleted user]]

Well I know he (view spoiler)[ will (hide spoiler)]

[Char]

Yeah? How do you know? I won't be able to watch this week's finale. But I am definitely going to On Demand it as soon as I get home.
Do you think Dani (view spoiler)[ will unleash the dragons on Quarth by the end of the show? (hide spoiler)]

I can't remember if that happened in the second book or not?

[[deleted user]]

(view spoiler)[ Tyrion with no nose is too much of the story.

Dragons on Qarth is book 3 - seasons 3-4 (hide spoiler)]

[Char]

Darn, book 3 eh? I'm bummed. I'm betting that will make one heck of a scene on the show, though!

You're right about Tyrion too, probably.

[Char]

I was away for the weekend but caught the finale of season 2.
WOW!

[[deleted user]]

Oh it was great

[Dustin]

The season's already over!?!

[Char]

HA, Dustin, it is! The words next to your name were uttered!
I don't know which part I liked the best.
Dani (view spoiler)[ got her dragons back and the walkers are moving towards the wall. (hide spoiler)]
It was awesome!

[[deleted user]]

I think the Arya Jaqen scenes were the best

It was awesome!"

Indeed, it SOUNDS awesome!

[Donna]

Just started watching this series. I am on episode 5 and am enjoying it..My eldest daughter (19) is hooked on it also. So far it has been following the first book pretty well.

[Char]

I can't wait until you see the last one, Donna!

[Donna]

If its anything like the ending of the first book..then I am going to love it. I am sure that they will do a great ending for the first season!!!!
:-)

[Char]

I can't believe it. I was looking at GRRM's blog and HBO is selling a full sized iron throne.
It's only 30k too! Don't wait until they're all gone!

There are 3 campaign style attack ads against Dani and Joffrey. HILARIOUS!

[Repko]

Its one of the best show that I have seen. I watch it online. You can also watch it through it......http://game-of-thrones.otavo.tv/
