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.. |

And they're highlighting Renly's tastes a bit more in the series, it seems. Robert was busting his balls pretty good out in the woods.

I'll tell him what happens...
awesome is what happens. But most of it won't be this season. Although couple of events from tonight will take a whole different light by the end of June, sort of in the way that "golden crown" makes sense now. I loved that scene. I wasn't sure how they were going to pull it off. The sense of things turning on the show, so strong right now. The next couple of weeks... [evil laugh] |

WoW, this series is ****ing awesome. I wanna read the books but I don't want to take anything away from my seriously anticipated Sunday nights. I did watch episode 7 on HBO Go, and now the next two weeks I'm gonna be jonsin'. The last 2 episodes I was just like WTF! mouth agape when the credits started rolling.

What is the deal with the red haired whore Ros getting so much of a character line. Did the scene with her leaving on the turnip cart happen in the book? It feels like they are almost trying to turn her into Shae in the upcoming season.
