Oh yeah, now I vividly remember him doing so, and his mom objected it, a minor plot in the book
but it seems GRRM didn't tie up that end til now, or he forgotten about it already, like so many plots he still left hanging

since it wasn't mentioned at all in the TV version also, then we can assume safely that it wasn't an important plot.

Well... albeit House Bolton did play a major part in the downfall of House Stark
but neither Roose Bolton nor Ramsay has POV in the book, which makes them a minor characters in the plot

Next season we might see a bit more of the House Greyjoy, and lets hope


I'm interested to see who they'll cast as the Red Viper, and his paramours

cool!!

didn't know they already cast him

anyhoo... James Purefoy has the sly, playboy look, but he's too european

The Martell are desert people, so first one, (dunno his name) fits well, as he got those middle eastern look
and looks dangerous too


Also since they have killed Ros, together with using her as the excuses for naked scenes, we need more paramours of Red Vipers for those scenes

Well... the Spider and Littlefinger are kinda playing espionage game

having their POV IMO will totally ruined the surprises & mysteries

Also, not much plot involving the Boltons anymore, not until the winter campaign in Winterfell, which is still a long way from the TV series, 2 or 3 more seasons

next season we'll still see Ramsay with Theon, heck, maybe they'll add in a new plot of Asha's encounter with Theon earlier?



It seems the writers for the TV series will have a hard time squeezing all of the major plots in the few short episodes per season, somemore they have to fast forward some of the future plots as well

Future seasons will be no longer possible to be filmed by a book per season

you can get the books from any major bookstore, MPH, Popular, Times all carry it, or you can just buy from Amazon

reading a book is very different from watching it on screen
on screen you're viewing it from a third person perspective, whereas in the book is written in first person POV, where you can read the thought of the characters, but not on screen.

also screen version they changes some of the minor plot, and add in extra plot, had new characters, removal/merging of existing characters
The plots are slightly different, but nothing major, yet.

read the book

As a cameo in Dannie's dream maybe

oh man... what a agonizing wait for both the new season and the new book!!

Mark you calendar!

Winter is Coming on April 6th!

in S4, looking forward for:

Warning: Heavy spoiler for S4

Official trailer is out



Love the new OST
Love the new Mountain (finally they cast him right )

they'll have to fast forward certain plots from the book
as they need to include all the main character's plots in the series
they can't really omit out a certain character's plot like in the book, eg: Jon & Daenery's plot is totally missing from Book4
imagine HBO omit their plots in next season, the angry fans will burn down HBO

still the same actor, this time he's wearing the white cloaks hence looks much cleaner compared to last season's ragged look

also this is where he transform into a "you'll not want him to die" likeable character

I got a feeling that GRRM will kill off Jaime in his remaining book

i guess that plot will be in S5 liao

I think S4 just about how she venture across the sea

Jaime looks more manly macho & matured now
no more the gigolo look in S1

Also... judging from what happen in the book
seeing Theon in armor on a horse is quite intriguing

Arya has gain some weight, she looks more plump, compared to the original character who is supposed to be skinny and scrawny
an issue with child actor/actress, they can change drastically when reach puberty

Y U NO READ TEH BOOK?????

go read the books now!!

it depends on publisher

UK & Aussie publisher split book 3 into 2 volumes (Steel & Snow, and Blood & Gold)
hence you'll get a 6 books set

but a 7 books set??
that I haven't seen
maybe some publisher decided to split book 5 into 2 volumes also, since it's kinda thick also

I think Ep402 should be the Purple Wedding
and Ep409 will be the Trial by Combat episode

GRRM better be fast with his remaining books
the TV series are catching up fast!

it seems the last scene in the trailer is faithfully reproduced from one of the morally disturbing scenes the book
