Game of Thrones *Spoiler* Thread
There's been some recent confusion with the old spoiler thread, so I'm kicking off a new one for tonight's premiere. This is going to be the one for folks who've read all the books. So anything anybody might want to talk about is in bounds. Suffice to say, if you haven't read the books, you'll probably want to stay out of here until you do...
I'll bump the old spoiler-free thread shortly in case anybody's interested. For future reference the link to that one is here |

Have they brought Kevin Lannister in to the series yet? I can't recall if he was in the books at this point.

I doubt it's true, but I really love the Cersei and Jaime are Aerys' kids theory, because of the many, many ironies it introduces to the story. Why did Aerys appoint Jaime to the Kingsguard? To take away Tywin's heir. However, it was his own son he appointed. Aerys told Jaime to bring him his father's head. Jaime did just that. After Robert died, who was the most legitimate heir to the throne? Joffrey, both his parents are Targaryens. |

And Joffrey may have been insane. Which was certainly a family trait.

It's been a few years since I last read, but I don't remember Cersei being mad.

Yeah, pretty clearly she isn't, in my mind. She has a somewhat warped worldview, but she's not mad/insane by any stretch.

It's totally normal to burn down buildings with wildfire, I'd say.

Cersei is mad as heck. Ever since she got that vision or prophecy when she was a child she's been paranoid as heck to the point of insanity. Also the Viper must live! And it's Kevan.

Just to let people know where I'm at on GoT I just finnished episode 5 of Season 3.
The old man told the midget and queen bitch they have to marry people they don't want to marry. A bunch of people fell off an ice cliff and died, the hero and his girl some how beyond all odds didn't fall to their death. That one dude keeps getting tortured on the rack. The pretty blonde girl has her kick ass army and dragons. The dude who gets his hand cuts off wants to have sex with the woman who has a bigger dick them him. The little boy has some acid dropping killer dreams. That bald headed advisor and the ugly old queen are plotting away. Everyone is taking the stark girl in the castle under their wing without trying to show it. That's most of it. Good stuff. |

Well, we didn't get the "trial by combat" but Oberyn and Tyrion was awesome.
I don't know how I could like Oberyn more at this point. It kills me that he has to die. |

Damn, I'm gonna miss Oberyn. Such a great character, and so well acted.
