I went up stairs to the family room TV and used the V-chip thingie to rate PG and below. Comes to find out the "Gladiator", "Sparticus", the Starz movies are NA. Thus by passed the rating system.
Then realized that he has a Laptop, and friends with Laptops and nothing really that I could do.
So goes the Sears catalog with the bra and panty section.
BTW, the Game of Thrones movies are awesome...just not for a 13 yr old. I have not read the books. I don't think I could remember all the names and houses

It's actually a LOT easier to remember the names and houses when reading the books because there is more context and detail, plus seeing them written down helps memory.
For non-readers who watch the show, I think it would help to have a little more background. This site is excellent, it has a brief summary or "scorecard" for each episode:

If you read the scorecard after watching each episode there's no spoilers but it helps give some extra background and context and helps identify and understand the characters better.
