"Game of Thrones" - HBO Series Coming in 2011

Think the world is full of people who don't read the books.....

I just bought the first book a few weeks ago, and was planning to only read each book when the events within had been depicted on the show.  I'm thinking the series is up to the third book now?  I am rethinking this, now.

Yeah, so far it's been simple.  Three seasons covering three books.  After this season is where it will get more complicated.  This season only covered about half of book 3, so the majority of next season will cover the rest of that book.  Then the next season or two will probably be books 4 and 5 simultaneously, as those two books were originally meant to be one book, and most of what happens in them is happening at around the same time.

We had a big viewing party for Sunday's episode, and only me and another friend of mine had read the books, so it was pretty fun.  During all the wedding scenes at the Twins, we just looked at each other.

Even though i knew it was coming, i did get chills when the "Rains of Castamere" played.  Everybody else just sat there in stunned silence when the proverbial shit hit the fan.  And even when the credits rolled, it took a few seconds for them to react.  Then it devolved into pretty much every twitter feed there is on The Red Wedding.

Also, i found this entertaining:

That reveal was hilarious.

[Bob]

That actor is terrible, his comments are terrible and the pointless scenes go on forever.

Just kill him please.   It kills the episodes until his crud is over.

[Rainbow Dash]

Theon or Ramsay?  Because Ramsay is perfect.

(Like anyone's name is one that I will remember!)
