I can't be anymore cysed for this.

[drizzle]

previous trailers went in the old season thread so lets keep this live

i'm about 20 pages away from finishing the first book, and rapidly rewatching the last season while at it

kinda really torn on whether i should keep reading and follow into the second book and then watch s02, or just watch s02 as it starts to air.

[Positive A]

Just getting into s01. Me likey.

it was pretty much a recap of season 1.
can not be more excited

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

SPOILERS
joffry get raped by dragons

on the real though stark spirit may inspire scottish nationalism to the point that they secede from the UK

[Tommy Bunz]

So excited.
Insane how much better the show was watching it a second time, just catching all the small details that are hidden everywhere and knowing who everyone is in advance makes for a much better experience overall, even when subtracting the initial wow factor of the first watch.

Fucking stoked for dragons and to see the Nights Watch go beyond the wall.

[Gregg Popabitch]

OMG WHITE WALKERS!!!!

I CANT WAIT I CANT WAIT I CANT WAIT

[Gregg Popabitch]

btw, we can all admit that this is 3 million times better than the Lord of the Rings movies so far, right?

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

ya

lord of the rings is boring after part 1
they had doper monsters tho

[drizzle]

not even close

lotr is cinema on the grandest scale, and as much as i love thrones it's small screen limitations are obvious at every turn. if you pay close attention scene by scene it's shocking how cheap some of the sets look and amazing that HBO gets away with it. the story and acting carry this a loooong way

Were you able to figure out who Jon Snow's real parents are?

I could understand why you wouldn't want the book to spoil the show for you, so after each episode of Season 2, it might be a good idea to read the corresponding chapters in Clash Of Kings.

too early and not really fair to compare them, tv is an easier digestible format and one has the advantage of tits and excessive violence

understandable.

However, story wise....I just find Game of Thrones so much more entertaining. I feel like there are a million things happening at once and all of those things are engaging.

[Tweak Da Leak]

LOTR blew besides the 1st movie in the trilogy, I would go even so far as to say Matrix Trilogy(Which also blew after the 1st movie) > LOTR Trilogy.

[Tommy Bunz]

Almost should create an entire separate thread for people who have read the books and keep all that shit in one place.
Last year we were tiptoeing the spoiler line way too often.
Thoughts?

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

necessary. maybe even put the book thread in a separate forum to obviate cross contamination.

[drizzle]

make it so

[Employee]

Cysed.

[Tommy Bunz]

OK the thread for the people who have read the books and want to discuss spoilers has been made and I renamed this one as well just to make it more obvious.
Thread will be modded judiciously from here on out.

pretty excited but i think i did get most of the eps from megaupload last season, hope i can find some linkages

Can't you download torrents from eztv.it? This is how everyone I know gets their episodes.

i've never messed with torrents

[Random Sample]

If I get the time I will see what I can do about setting up some kind of share for the new episodes. I pay for a download service and can get the episodes right after they air usually. I will try to figure something out.

[LilLeftBrain]

rapidshares not too shabby nowadays
probably the best of the free services since megauploads demise

is there anything else in the further books about this? i'm guessing no, since anyone who might actually know the truth is dead after the first book. if that's indeed the case then i think i have a good guess about what you're implying. i haven't read that link you posted, but i have been keeping an eye out for random mentions in the book that could be helpful.

[wheels]

It's all over the place, in all the books. Once you realize you should be asking who Snow's parents are, you'll pick up on it a lot more. I made it through three without really caring about it, then I noticed a couple things in the TV series that made me go back and pay attention.

You could really just read/watch the whole thing without ever giving a fuck if you were so inclined.

[drizzle]

my guess is he's a rapespawn of ed stark's sister and that targayrean prince that kidnapped her

[Cash Rulz]

So yall like confusing as Game of Thrones more than LOTR????

And yall say my taste suck? This shit is like a coalition of wack movie/tv show lovers muthafuckas.

Yeah, I said it.

Will watch this on On Demand tonight. Please be better than last season.
