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 |

I agree w/the notion previous stated that even though I knew what was coming I'm still floored. Also, after reading that chapter I had to put down the book for awhile. Just amazing.

I think it's funny hearing how people put the book down after this chapter. This pulled me in even more.

I'm not sure that wasn't harder to watch than it was to read. The scene's so well written you don't know what's going on until it happens. Tonight I spent the last 20 minutes cringing.

A bit of brilliant programming by HBO having two weeks in between ep. 8 & 9. Also, The Poz,a job well done. My gf cringed in horror at the final scene. |

Needless to say I read books 1-5 in about 3 weeks so I rarely put them down once I started. |

Don't have the show, but they knifed Jeyne (or whatever the hell she's called in the show)? So...uh...that would seem to answer a question from the books, would it not? There still seemed to be some intrigue as to whether or not Jeyne was pregnant or if her mom had faked an abortion of sorts... I've been waiting for 2 seasons to see the reception for the Red Wedding. Like others, it's the first and only time I can recall being really rattled by a damn book. "Wait....nooooo.....surely that didn't just happen" {flip, flip, flip....re-read} "Oh what the ****, George Martin?!?!? You are such a prick!"

Yeah, Talisa was at the wedding and she was pretty brutally killed. So no mystery there.

I call Sansa 'speedbump', because that's what her chapters are.
