Game of Thrones *Spoiler* Thread
There's been some recent confusion with the old spoiler thread, so I'm kicking off a new one for tonight's premiere. This is going to be the one for folks who've read all the books. So anything anybody might want to talk about is in bounds. Suffice to say, if you haven't read the books, you'll probably want to stay out of here until you do...
I'll bump the old spoiler-free thread shortly in case anybody's interested. For future reference the link to that one is here |

GoT doesn't get bumped, not for any show.

Every episode 9 has been a big episode so far: Ned dying in season one and the Battle of the Blackwater in season two. 10 has always been the hanging episode to make you come back.

I can't wait to see my roommate's and my girlfriend's reaction to the Red Wedding. I kid you not, when I read it, I just put the book down for about a week.
I just hope they can capture the feel I got from that moment in the book. I was just skimming along thinking all was going great, Arya was on her way to meet up with her mother and brother and it was looking great for the Starks, then BAM! Arrows flying all over the place. I had to reread a page or two just to make sure I was reading what was occurring properly.

That was about as well as they could have possibly done it, for people who hadn't read the books. Played it like everything is fine right up until the last possible moment. Starts the Rains, Cat knows, and it's all downhill from there.
One of those moments where I wish I could un-know what happens. And man was her throat-cutting graphic rofl I did like them knifing his wife's belly. That was a great change from the book (she's still alive last I recall) |

I don't know what other event in any other book I have read had an equally strong emotional impact on me as the Red Wedding. 'Brutal' doesn't do it justice.

This is the last book I read. Kinda gave up waiting for George to write them and decided to wait until he was finished and then start at the beginning again.
People are shitting their pants right now. And come season 4, I won't know what's coming anymore, and I think I'm kinda looking forward to that. |
