True, but that's also a major spoiler, and that's kind of a no-no for promotional material. Everything that they've put out has been very good at concealing the plot, such as Ned's death, as if that really needs a spoiler tag. Furthermore, even if they're Lannisters by blood, they're technically Robert's children, although still no one really knows that they aren't. Besides, they are still listed under the House Lannister, too.

Major spoiler? It's revealed in the first few chapters of the first book, and the first episode of the TV series!

She's a surprisingly good actress for being so young.

And if I remember correctly she's in a FP'ers class.

**MagicBurrito** · 3rd December 2011

Anyone know of a good streaming site for the episodes? I've really wanted to start watching this series, heard great things from it. This has probably been asked alot in this thread, but I didn't want to do much digging around in case of spoilers.

If they followed the book strictly there wouldn't be an awesome cliffhanger that'd ensure people returning for season 3. This way it works out just fine whike skipping ahead from book 2 by maybe ten pages.

Stannis is coming.

The last shot will be Sam pissing his pants.

**Zezibesh** · 12th December 2011

should probably spoiler that

**booster** · 12th December 2011

That was a pretty awesome teaser.

This must be the first time I'm actually really hyped over a TV series.

lemoncurry · 12th December 2011

Damn, going to have to keep away from this thread, only 100 pages into A Clash of Kings, damn good book, although I find it more difficult to become engrossed than Game of Thrones.

I love how they keep working in really significant things into the trailers in really subtle ways.

First the green fire and now the horn blasts.

**Trooper-guy1** · 15th December 2011

I recently finished A Feast for Crows and I must say the TV series is accurate enough when comparing the story and characters, along with some of the environments.

You are in for a treat with Storm of Swords then, twice as engrossing as Game of Thrones, there's very few chapters where something interesting doesn't happen.

**Beafman** · 16th December 2011

Just finished yesterday with the series. At first I was kinda "meh" but after the first episode I was hooked. Can't wait to show the series to my family and can not wait until series 2 is out!

**darth-veger** · 16th December 2011

Wish i could share it with the rest of my family and shit but its kinda to show when there is already sex and nudeness in the first episode

Not that they are against it but they find it "weird"

because sex and nudeness doesnt exist in real life right

This show is too good to be judged on the sex and nudeness, the books too.

**sp00ks** · 16th December 2011

watching sex scenes in movies and tv series with your family is always awkward.

I know, i know
But what sp00ks said its just weird showing them a great series and the first thing you see if some nude girls sucking the dick of a dwarf

Well, you could subscribe to a cable / satellite network and order HBO... Although I must say I'm quite pissed. I've been using Comcast Xfinity to watch my HBO programs on my laptop and iPhone the past few days and just last night I went to watch an episode of Deadwood and they're telling me I need to buy an HBO subscription? Wtf.

It gets easier after the first episode, it's so hard to remember them all in episode 1 because they're all in Winterfell and it's a bit of a clusterfuck.

yea, im up to episode 7 now and i know most of the characters. also, i cant help but compare westeros with skyrim, and keep imagining that ned is a jarl. i also think kahjiit when i see syrio forel because of his accent and the fact that he keeps referring to himself in the third person.

Skyrim was originally going to be A Song of Ice and Fire game before Bethesda chose to do the Elder Scrolls instead.

I was pretty much hooked after the prologue.

**Carne** · 2nd January 2012

What I like about these books is that you see characters grow throughout the book and you like them, then suddenly they're killed off at the end of a chapter

Not really a spoiler as it happens quite frequently, and I'm not talking about a specific character.

Though there's one character I really dislike; Daenerys.

I mean, her chapters are so god damn boring. I hope she dies soon.

Well you get to read a chapter that's about her shitting blood at one point, it's pretty entertaining
