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.

Excellent!

Season 2 should be a good showcase for Tyrion, he could win another award if things go right, maybe even for best actor as opposed to supporting actor because his character has a bigger role in book 2.

Oh yea old Robb receives quite a reception everywhere he goes. Jon has a rather magnetic personality. But in the end it's Tyrion by a nose.

They had to wait to see what kind of reception they got for the first episode before they would commit to start filming on Season 2. All doubts, were of course, completely unwarranted, but with the budget needed to create the immersion effect of this scale, you don't play fast and loose with that kind of money.

I hope not too. But not really worried about it, if you think about it, seven is the perfect number for this series to end on.

Haven't come across this any where so I'll go ahead and post it. Found it some time back and I think it is pretty frickin' cool. I've tried the mulled wine recipe and really enjoyed. Some where down the road I'm going to attempt some of the more exotic dishes.

I think Ice and Fire was originally planned as a trilogy that later expanded to 5 books and then ballooned to 7. It would not surprise me at all to see it grow to 8. If there's time.
