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.. |

Would it be a good idea to start up a spoiler free thread for talking about up to the current episodes? There is a lot I'd like to talk about with people that have read the books, but don't want to mess it up for people. Might be good to change this title to say there are spoilers here, and another that is supposed to be spoiler free.

This might be a good one to talk about spoilers, I know early on a lot of people in here talked it up as they were reading the books. Anyone in here that can change this title to say Spoilers in it?
Then we can start a new thread specific for no spoilers. |

Sansa, much like Dany, grows on me by the 4th book.
Hell, I even like the Kingslayer now. The character development in the series is second to none. |

I got about 30% through the first book and then said **** it and decided to wait for the show. I think I have one more episode of shit I already know, but then it will be all new to me.
The thing I want to know most (and I don't want anyone to spoil me on this) is if Viserys (sp?) will actually go for the throne and if he'll have a formidable army behind him. |

Alright, I'm hooked now. Understand the charectors mch better now. Some problems with the superficial aspects of the charectors. They kill the brother or try, kill the daughter dog, probably killed his sister. The Lassisters are bad people and need to die. If they are so bad to everyone how did they achieve any power?
