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 |

Cracked has a neat article on shows [GoT among them] that have insane details.
http://www.cracked.com/article_21544...y-noticed.html It's long with a lot of pictures, so go to the site. Basically, although it looks like Khaleesi's outfit hasn't changed, it has gained [dragon] scales on the tunic from episode to episode, and Sansa's wedding gown is an incredibly detailed tapestry of her story from Tulley to Stark to Lannister.

It's not a fast read, but it's a really great one. Picture Martin's world but with much more magic (and capricious gods running around being unpredictable and... capricious).

Does anyone read the tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser anymore? I gulped those down like oxygen back in my early teens.

Never heard of it. Will check it out, though.

Ho-lee crap, what an ending for season four...
Tyrion got even like a bauce. Its been nice seeing Jaime Lannister grow a heart the last few seasons, and I doubt we've seen the last of The Hound. Khaleesi the "breaker of chains" has become a slave owner in her own right by disciplining her wayward dragons, its all becoming something she cant control. The skeleton warriors coming out of the snow on Bran and crew at the tree took me closer to my Dungeons and Dragons days than anything else in this entire series... that was sooo badass looking. Such a great show, each one its own movie quality production. |

Brienne is chasing Sansa, Sansa is stuck with Littlefinger, Littlefinger is conniving his ass off, the kracken guys are fighting amongst themselves and then for sea domination, Jon is on the Wall letting wildlings through, Aria (sp?) is heading to learn how to be an assassin, Stannis is trying to win the north, Cersi is getting her shit pushed in by the holy septon, Jamie is off winning the Riverlands Who am I missing and where in there is any revenge? Edit: I did forget about the Martells in Dorne. I guess that could be the vengeance they are talking about maybe. But by the end of the fifth book they really haven't gotten any vengeance of any sort. As a matter of fact they think Dany is coming with their son and landing in Westeros already and they are gravely mistaken.

It seems like either there are rewrites, or they will be going into TWOW. If it's the second, it could be Ramsay or Roose. |

What about the Tyrells? I'm sure the rose is there for a reason.

Yeah, I've read that too, because I've read the books. You may want to stay out of the spoiler thread if you don't want the entire story to be, you know, spoiled.
