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.

As is most threads here specualtion by people who don't know is tolerated. If you know for sure, its spoiler tags. At least thats the way other threads in the media cneter have worked that I participated in, Lost, 24, Entourage etc,

Dude, I'm not following you, but before the show even started Cersei was married to Robert Bartheon, who is the king.

not focuesd on your comment or any other comment. Just trying to make sure the "etiquette" of this threads in the media center have been, If you guys don't want that, thats cool too.

Oh ok, I think Keg might have made another thread in the Media Center for non-spoilers because most people in here have read the books.

Um, I'm not 100% sure but from what was said in that tomb it sounded like the King was in love with Stark's sister. Not sure if they ever got married, but they were going to.

I don't know how she died.

The Lannisters didn't kill Stark's sister. The Targaryens did, along with Ned's father and older brother. I could go into detail about what happened but only these basic facts have been revealed in the show so far.

Also, there is another thread that is 100% spoiler-free.

The Lannisters are by far the wealthiest family in the kingdom of Westeros. Obviously the wealth helps raise formidable armies. The leader of the house Tywin Lannister (Cersei, Jaime and Tyrion's father) is also a shrewd and ruthless tactician.

Great, GREAT! episode. I love this show so much. They are really handling the source material well. I do miss some of the talk/argument about who is going with Ned and who is staying behind. That all happened so fast and weakens some of the characters, to a small degree. But whatever. I think everyone is getting the basic point.

Also, I loved the final scene.

Spoiler!

Yeah, wondering how they are going to do the Warg stuff. I am guessing they will show POV of inside the wolf, along with some of what they are doing. Won't be able to show the tasting blood and all the smells but should all still be really cool.

Leaving spoiler tags off since they separated out a spoiler free thread.

Also, something that bugged me about this week's episode was the scene where Jon says goodbye to Ned. Every map shows the Kingsroad running north/south with Winterfell on the west side. In this scene, we're looking in the direction of Winterfell, which means that right is north and left is south. However, Jon goes left (south) and Ned goes right (north). They're both going the wrong way.

And yes, I realize it's an asinine thing to nitpick about, but it still caught my attention.

Arya also threw the rock at Nymeria with her right hand, but she's supposed to be left handed. **** HBO!
