HBO greenlights A Game of Thrones pilot! (spoilers)
EDIT: Changed the original header to mark this as the thread where spoilers are allowed (but not necessarily recommended...). Created a new, spoiler-free thread for Ice and Fire virgins...
This is awesome... Huge, Huge News Nov. 11th, 2008 at 10:29 PM HBO has given the production order. They will be filming the pilot episode of A GAME OF THRONES. It's just the pilot so far. They'll need to see that before they decide whether to proceed with a full season's episodes. So let's all hope the pilot will kick serious ass. It should. David Benioff and Dan Weiss did a terrific job with the script. And yes, all of you can relax, it's very faithful. Dan and David will be the executive producers for the pilot and (we hope) the eventual series. More details when I have 'em. The news is very fresh. HBO just issued their own press release, which should be up on their website soon, if it's not there already. Winter is coming to HBO. Hot damn. Last edited by keg in kc; 04-25-2011 at 03:58 PM.. |

HBO's done an amazing job with this. As excited as I am to see the finale, I hate to see the season end. It's been "event" television. Something I make sure to have time for.
Gonna be a looong wait for season 2. |

LOST was that way for me. This is the first thing since then that I've felt tht way about. And even though I've read the books, I still look forward the new episode every week. It's gonna be weird without a new episode next week. |

I bought the set of the first 4 books and I can't put the shit down. Finished the first book in a week and haven't read fictional book in years. Can't get enough of it.

I was hoping they wouldn't leave that bit about Snow and his black brothers out. Glad they didn't. I love Commander Mormont on this show.
I wondered how they'd handle that final scene. Pretty well, I think. |
