A TV adaptation of George R R Martin's 'A Song Of Ice And Fire' heptalogy from HBO.
Have not read the book, but HBO is pretty keen on the project.
So it could be good.
And it's Fantasy...They are rare species on TV.

Too bad...we live in a world of innovation, thus, lack of creativity...

Anyway, this looks good to me.

Fears & Blood


Still slightly more than 1 month away.
Btw, just gone through 1/5 of the first book, it is quite an entertaining read.

If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read it, LOL!
Based on the clip, the series is 99% faithful to the book.

Anyway, the first 14 minutes can be viewed here

1 week to go.

Wow, very faithful to the book.
Not an easy adaptation.
I'm glad that I'm not disappointed with the introduction of the characters so far.
If you have not read the book, you may find there are quite a lot of characters to get to know.
And there are MORE to come.
Can't wait for next week instalment.
Because it will get better and better (if it is done right, of course).

The opening credit is very impressive, I must say.
It brings the Westeros alive.

The Killing + Game Of Thrones = Super Awesome TV night for me, LOL!
I have not watched two shows on one night for a long, long time.

The Imp has the best lines of all characters so far in the book. (Just finished the first book.)
He is so funny, even funnier if you could hear his thoughts.
He is a good comic relief with so much going on in the Westeros world.
Too bad, no one is safe in the series...
Apart from him, Arya Starks is another lovely character in the book.

Lena Headey is meant to be a b**ch. I mean her character, the Queen.

It is promising.
Hope it is going to be really great because the first book is amazing, I must say.
I have not read the remaining 3 books, the fifth book due this July.
Just started the 2nd book today actually.

I'm afraid the show will catch up with the book before the book finished.
It took the author more than 5 years to finish the fifth book.
Imagine he takes the same amount of time to finish the 6th and the last.
Let's hope it works out well.

Yes, there are a number of scenes.

Added on April 22, 2011, 1:26 pmIt's good to see the red keep, the heart tree and the wall in the opening credit.
And I never thought Pentos could look so good, in the book, things across the narrow sea always take place in plain grass, desert or mountain.
It was really hard to imagine these places from the book.
That's what makes the opening credit awesome.

Yes, but he needs to go back to his book,

It's just the pilot, anyway.
It will become clearer what is happening.
A few plots are running at the same time too.
Of coz, more boobs will be featured too.

u missed incest,

Joffrey is ugly indeed. Why Sansa thinks that he is very handsome is beyond me. Guess the vision of being the queen blinds her.
Yeah, the opening is very interesting, Vaes Dothrak has its beauty. I can't wait to see how Eyrie, Riverrun and Dragonstone looks like. (Okay, I'm only up to the 2nd book.)
I wonder why Daenerys sigil is a lion instead of a dragon while Sansa sigil is a dragon instead of a direwolf btw. They must have messed up the actresses.

Yeah, but not knowing the end until the series catch up seems like a good idea after all.
But what if...Let's hope it works out well.
And Book 3 and Book 5 can easily being adapted into 1.5 to 2 seasons due to its length, IMO.

It started last week.

So far the sex scenes in the show are not just sex scenes.
They have a reason there.
For plot and character development.
And they are in the books.
Later on, rapes during war is even harder to take.
Did I say brothels as well?

All good shows must have this kind of trailer.

Watch 720p version here as well.

Guess it's worth the wait.

Very fast paced, and a lot of plot and character development.
I can see the purpose of the scene of the Queen and Prince though it is not in the book. Very interesting set up.
Love to see Littlefinger and Vary. I thought Vary is a much gentler eunuch though.
Old Nan with scary story scene is well done too. Very tense.
A few things missing here and there as well, would love to see Jon bonded with Pyp and Grenn.
Hope they don't cut off all Bran's dream.
Anyway, there goes 58 minutes easily.

Syrio and Arya scene is perfect in the end.
Hodor and his basket comes later, maybe next episode.
