    Have you read the books Deebz?
    Well, Your Honor. We've plenty of hearsay and conjecture. Those are kinds of evidence.

    Only watched up to ep 4 of Season one, might knock the rest of them off slowly over the next couple of months so I can jump straight into season two.

    Nice shot for the video too. Emilia Clarke <3

    Just finished ADWD

     
    Starting to get concerned that we'll be bogged down with a boring as fuck Dany + suitors finale. Martin has an amazing ability to open these plotlines and then ignore them for 2000 fucking pages while boring the fuck out of us with immense detail about the running of Meereen. With Jon dead, Tyrion and Littlefinger are the only really brilliant characters, and Tyrion has been dull in Essos while Littlefinger didn't even appear. Hoping for a lot more action in TWOW or this will be the biggest bust of a brilliant start to a series of all time.

    Don't want to turn this into a discussion about the books as there are some who haven't read them, but:

     
    I don't think we'll ever get the full conclusion to the series. I've long believed Martin has lost control of it and made so massive in scope and whatnot he's no longer able to properly tie it all in together, it's what caused the massive delays from ASOS to AFFC and ADWD in my view. I think he'll die before it's ever finished.

    I reckon you could be right. When you see POV characters like Davos pop up for 2 whole chapters in 2 books you know it's beyond anything reasonable - 2000 pages between AFFC and ADWD and Davos appears twice? Sansa wouldn't be much more than that and she was one of the first characters we met. I loved having a lot of Jon in ADWD but the Dany and Greyjoy x 4 chapters are getting too much for me


    Also, have you ever looked on any of the fansites? Some of the theories are hilarious.
    Well, Your Honor. We've plenty of hearsay and conjecture. Those are kinds of evidence.

    Just over half way through book three...

     
    I'd been spoiled that Robb would die, but was shocked at the way it happened at the hands of the Freys... and Catelyn at the same time(!!). And then the DireWolf head being attached to his body...truly epic stuff...and totally unexpected on my behalf...Was sure it would be at the hands of the little cunt (or his men at least). Also, was not really a fan of the Denearys storyline, but the arrival of Barriston the Brave has intrigued me.

    Safe for you to read Fwoy:

     
    I didn't have it spoiled, but deep down I suspected it given he was never a POV character and given the Melisandre curse. Was utterly shocked with the way it happened though, and like with Ned I was searching for a loophole for Robb. But Catelyn was utterly shocking being the first POV character to be killed in their chapter (Ned was killed in Arya's IIRC) and so brutally.

    Surely things like this don't need spoilers? Can't spoil an ending that hasn't been written yet. Guess whingers are going to whinge though.

    Anyway, the good thing is that if he doesn't finish the books HBO will finish the story now. Or just drag it out into some immense number of seasons.

    So I just read the next couple of chapters Stanton, and the funny thing is...

     
    ...As I was starting the Tyrion chapter, I thought about what you said re: POV characters, and who else is not one...Laughingly I thought to myself, "I guess Joffrey isn't safe then..."

    several pages later...







    I can see why people rave about this book...it just keeps on giving!
