Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Season 3 premier tonight! Any followers?

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Two minutes to go! Also Walking Dead season finale tonight. I'm thinking watch GOT first so that I can FF through the commercials on TWD.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Interesting episode.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Winter is coming.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Just saw some bad news. To me, Peter Dinkledge as Tyrion Lannister is the best character in the series.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

The only enjoyable Lanister

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Remember what day this news post is from.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Loved the episode

Jon Snow meeting the "king Beyond the wall" :tu

The Exchange between Tyrian and Tyrin Lannister was awesome.
You could hear and see the disdain The father had for son.
And the hurt the son was feeling that turned into Hatred and the look of I will

:gary then *bleep* U in the arse, when I get the chance!

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I have had a lot of LOL moments on this show, and suffice it to say that every viewing lasts twice as long
for me per hour, because I love to go back and re-watch things that were excellent. But last night, I watched
both the Epis.1&2 from the 3rd season and I got one of my best belly laughs yet out of Episode 2.

The "Blond Knight" is escorting the KingSlayer to his father, and when a fight breaks out between the two,
Lannister tries to body bump her to throw her off balance and gain advantage....and he just bounces off
of her and falls down, I swear I laughed for 30 seconds on that one...it was just hilarious to me. I am glad
they did not cut to a face closeup of him in utter disbelief, that would have made a serious show into a
slapstick comedy, but if you caught the moment, it was funny enough on it's own.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

great show. eagerly awaiting episode 3.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Heard great things about the show so I was able to get my hands on the previous two seasons and watched them in about six days so now Im all caught up to season 3 and can't wait for the next episode!

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Read the books, but didn't have HBO. Verizon gave me free HBO, so I just started watching the 3rd season.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I did catch that and laughed at that as well. It was like he hit a wall.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

great episode

The Look of shock and horror on Jamie Lanisters face was priceless

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I've been watching it too. The Daenyrus (sp?) and Mance Rayder storyline have been very intriguing.

Last season was a little bit meh. I kind of wish this was a 2hr show. We're already at 1/3 done in season 3 and nothing has really happened. When you have 5 or 6 storylines, they only skim the surface for about 5-8 minutes per storyline and then leave you hanging until the following week. But it's still a great show, can't wait to see how bad arse the dragons become.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Read the books and then you'll really understand how long you can go with nothing happening.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Even in the books, there are multiple story lines going and timelines that get out of order.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

IMO, one of the best episodes this season to date, was last night.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

:tpd:

Absolutely! Watch out for the Queen of Dragons

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

She is bad ass. Kind of figured she knew what that guy was saying the whole time and why she took that women along with her.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Battle of Astapor wad done so cheaply. Pissed me off. So much more they could have done with the material they had. Good but could have been better.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Yeah, but jason, YOU KNOW how much you hate all these storylines getting 2 minutes a week. A big battle
could have just made that worse. She got in, she kicked ass, she got out. After her time in that magician's
dungeon, I don't think she was playin' this time around. IN FACT, after watching 3&4 back to back, THAT
whole story was the only one I gave a crap about. OF course Jamie having his hand assed to him was good.
But when I was done watching those two, I thought, 'well, that was an utter waste of two hours." Good,
but not great by any means. I knew she was understanding his a55 from the first word. Any time a man curses
a woman like that in another language, SHE ALWAYS understands somehow. It's the law of TV drama.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Why have they abandoned the most important story line of the season?
For weeks now, all I want to know is, what did Podrick do to those whores?

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Lol Dom.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Gotta be the tongue.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Is this over???
I don't see a Episode 9 file around?

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Skipped one week. Last episode at the end, it said "in two weeks".

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

They decided not to air an episode on Memorial Day weekend due to the poorer ratings history of doing so.

This Sunday will be Episode 9

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

That's a relief. I am far behind, though, just watched 5&6 last night. I had popped in 7&8,
and they said "previously on GOT..." and I saw all kinds of stuff that I had not SEEN, and
it was only then I realized I was further behind than I thought. Dug around a bit and found
the disc with 5&6 on it and popped it in. 4 freaking shows behind.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Loss of words......

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

its a fantastic series if u have not read the books its highly recommended.

possibly the best book series i have ever read :tu

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Me too. Wow.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Definitely did not see that coming. I'm not terribly thrilled with the events of tonight's episode.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I'm dying on the inside right now...

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Agreed

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Wow! totally unexpected..

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

While I hate it too, it makes more sense for the overall story line with the continued rise of Dany. Her taking on the Starks just doesn't hold the same draw of her vs the Lannisters.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

That story line followed the book pretty closely ... and was pretty well done given the time constraints, although honestly, I thought the season would have ended on that note.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Well, that's not gonna buff out

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

For the most part, yes the series does follow the books. However there are some differences. The characters names were changed for the Queen of the North. In the book it is Jeyne, in the series it is Talisa. Also, parts of the 3rd book were thrown in at the end of Season 2, and Season 3 is covering about 2/3 of Book 3, with Season 4 covering the rest (that was previous confirmed by the producers). I suspect this is also to give Martin time to finish the series, however, he has already told the producers how the books will end, just in case something happens to him.

The Red Wedding was very brutal and even shocked me. It was more bloody than in the book.

The last two episodes of the season have been similar in their design. The the death of Ned, the epic battle of Blackwater, the Red Wedding, all have taken place in the next to last episode, with the season finale leaving the viewers in a cliffhanger of sort, more eager for the next season to get here.

-(P

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Wow! That was awesome, sad and unexpected.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I had some suspicions that at least the wife would be killed, but wow! My girlfriend has read several of books so she knew what was going to happen. That was some scene.

Just loving this show!

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

There's a couple of us at work who watch the show and another who's read the books. He's been waiting for this episode to see our reaction. Needless to say we were floored. I have to give Martin credit for not sticking to the regular convention that good always prevails.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I have to admit, I wasn't sad at all that Rob Starks wife died, that he died, and that his Mom died. Nothing. Not even the part where he was crawling to her. Literally no reaction. The direwolf dying made me sadder :sh

Great show though.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

All hail Kalesie!!!! (or however you spell it)

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Ha, I thought the same thing. Never liked his storyline. It's all about Daenarys. :tu

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3

Same here. -(P

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

Having read the books a little past where the tv show is currently I knew the internet would implode after last weeks episode. My dad went off the handle when he watched it. I'm curious to see what they include the the season finale.

Re: Game Of Thrones Series 3
 

I am always 2 weeks behind, since I put two episodes on a DVD then burn it and watch it that night.
But spoilers don't bother me, so I knew this was coming from you guys here. And like most people,
it didn't matter to me much anyway. I think someone said it best in the season 2 thread, there are
no good or bad people in this show, it is not set up to be 'the Starks versus the world', or 'the Starks
are the good people and everyone else is trying to take away their kingdom'. It's just a show, a story,
it is what it is and nothing more. NOW, that said, I am not thrilled knowing that the Lannisters
basically come out of this in control of everything, and yes, we know that queen sexy tit5 is a-comin'.
But that episode, combined with the yawner of a season finale, well, it just made me less likely to watch
next season. We'll see. I think it is a sure thing that Peter Dinklage is OUT, so any hopes that the dwarf
king will stab his nephew in the head and make it all right is kind of out the window. Surprised he was not killed
in the finale, considering the solid rumor that he is moving on to other dwarf projects. But we know Tywin's
actor has cancer and is likely gonna be gone, Tyrian is gone, so what the hell? I guess it could be worse
than 'Queen Sexy Tit5 has a peaceful reign filled with long bubble baths and thin dresses in high winds'.
