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.

John Snow


It's been bothering me why that name was ringing a bell with me and I figured it out today.

John Snow was the father of some modern day technology you see every day. He used dot maps to trace a cholera epidemic to a public water well in London's Soho district in the 1800s.

I feel better now.

I was going to wait until the entire tv series had concluded in a couple years but it seems like the tv episodes would be a lot richer if there was proper back story. OTOH the element of surprise will be largely removed.

Everyone should also find and read/listen to the Dunk and Egg short stories. If you haven't read any of the actual series, it will give you a taste of the writing style and you will get some great back-story and relevant history.

This may be the perfect time to start, with the new book out in just over a month.

You won't be disappointed. Reading these books will make you feel like a junkie at a rave - you can't get enough and will blow through them.
