Game of Thrones

[akuma no uta]

The baby killing scene alone made it worth it, the set up of the 5 kings going on is nice, introducing the lord of light and the baratheon army. All in all, this season is gonna be intense. Only thing I was disappointed about was the total lack of khaleesi, and great north. 2 minutes with each of those groups? Gtfo

series has been faithful to the book .. so yeah itll be slow ... in the beginning

[evisu 2000]

i thought the first ep of thrones was really good

californication is so horrible this season

mad men has been good

eastbound & down has been good this season too

the new girl unfortunately still gets a few lols from me every ep, so horrible

damn near didnt show Ary.

[lil brown brother]

imo book 3 was the best ... great character developments on all the main characters ... 4 and 5 is 1 book which was split up

first episode was okay. I thought it should have started off with Stannis and what was happening on Dragostone. Joffrey's name day scene wasn't very well done IMO, and wasn't the story to kick the season off with. They're making some minor changes to the story, nothing to get nit picky about, but it looks like Riverrun might be completely left out and replaced with Robb's campaigns. Not sure if this will be a good or bad move.

Episode two was awesome. So many story lines... Couldn't imagine keeping the books straight.

[percy]

im not sure i did the right thing watching episode two already... two weeks to wait now!

[shufon]

^There's rumor that certain countries in Europe are releasing each episode one week early on HBO Go, which means you should be able to torrent all of them one week ahead of the US schedule. Not sure how true this is though.

poland and some other country are doing this.

[yachtrock89]

Just watched on demand. Not a particularly great episode, but god I missed it. Best show on television

this is true esp with all the characters

[evisu 2000]

never read the books, but i feel the pacing is pretty much perfect

[akuma no uta]

ep1 to ep 2 theres such an insane quality jump. this shit is perfect.

[akuma no uta]

i also unfortunately watched ep 1 on some super samsung led 65748326574839265 hz tv and that makes everything look like shit.

[chantheman]

i actually thought ep2 was just alright. kinda like ep1 more

[akuma no uta]

^^really? i thought the nights watch scene with the kings army was amazing, tyrion firing that guy was fucking priceless, lack of khaleesi really sucked again, but growing the a Arya story is pretty neat.

[devilish]

carice van houten, is all i have to say.

[DJ_Flame]

^ Initially I thought she was too old for the part. But yea hot damn.

[DJ_Flame]

Also random thought: Littlefinger has a superb barber. The sides and back of his hair are pretty much perfect.

[akuma no uta]

so did ep 3 come out today?

[deadendpro]

Maybe its just me paying too much attention to what was shadowed in the "in the upcoming weeks of GoT" that showed at the end of the first episode, but i think they are going to combine books 2 + and parts of 3 for this season and rely on what wasn't covered for the next season. For example, the mention of Robb saying "i love her" to his mom is something that will not occur until book 3. But this is just my guess. who knows how they will do it. We will have to wait and see.

Spoiler ahead for those who have not seen 2.2:

maybe it is the manner in which the changes are occuring in the story, but i think the viewing of the whitewalkers at the end of the episode changes the nature of the rest of Jon's story. As it occurs in the book it created a greater sense of tension as opposed to another conflict. I dunno, i am enjoying the season but wonder how the evidence of visible Others so early on is going to shape the series in a way that is different than in Clash of Kings.
