Umbra Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Oh gods, Season 3 will be downright [i]epic. [/i]Words cannot describe how amazing it will be. Looking forward to Episode 9, as always. If you thought "Baelor" was bad, you haven't seen nothing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ｍｒ．Ｒｏｂｏｔ Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Heard that they're splitting the books in half for season 3 and season 4. That's a good thing since book 3 is massive but I hope they follow closely to the book this time around like season 1 did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umbra Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 They're expanding a bit more on the story - we'll be seeing what Littlefinger is up to in the Vale, as well as what "Reek" is having done to him. Show watchers will have even more of a reason to hate Ramsay, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Crimson Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 To be honst, I can't think of ONE thing that would make Game of Thrones any better than it was during series 1 & 2, on top of its accuracy to the book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non existing character popping up, character name's being change, sub plot being cut off(this is totally justified though) and some scene that never happened, happened. Quite disappointed with season 2 expect for episode 9. That was awesome because George R. R. Martin penned that episode himself . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umbra Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Sure, it wasn't exactly like Clash, but you can't honestly say that Season 2 was a disappointment. The plot which saw the most change - Dany's storyline - was objectively changed for the better in S2. She didn't do [i]jack [/i]in Qarth in the books, other than going to the House of the Undying for little to no reason. Prophecies, sure, but I can see why they had to cut that. Blackwater demanded the most of their budget, which is understandable. By the way, which "nonexistant" characters are you talking about? Ros was in S1, and is more of a compilation of all the whores that already are in the story, to minimize an already huge cast and focus on the main actors.

It's disappointing to me personally because season 1 follow the book closely with some minor altercation of course but they change a lot in season 2 and after countless of unfaithful adaptation I've seen then saw season 1 of GOT in HBO I had high expectation for season 2. That and I'm a nitpicking a******. But all said and done, GOT is still one of the best television series. Other than Ros, the one I could remember clearly was Talisa Maegyr. Sub plot being cut of is I said, understandable and The Battle of Blackwater was pure epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umbra Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Talisa only replaced a character which was pretty non-existant in the first place. Jeyne Westerling appears, like, twice in ASOS, and displays all the personality of a dried salmon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Colonel Remo Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'm waiting for a certain wedding Also, I wonder what they will do with Books 4 and 5, seeing as they happen at the same time but with just a geographical split. I could understand them combining them into one large season, but with the seasons being off from the books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Avian Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 To be honest, I didn't find the second season as enjoyable as the first because there were a lot of changes from the book. Still, waiting for season 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umbra Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Book 4 and 5 will probably be rearranged into two or possibly three seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Crimson Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Umbra - Honestly I do hope they get as many seasons out of it as possible, GoT is great television and anyone who says otherwise clearly hasn't seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umbra Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yeah, but I don't see Feast and Dance dragging on for more than three seasons between the two of them. There's just not enough material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel Crimson Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yeah, Game of Thrones = not harry potter. You remember when they had basically a whole film with them camping?

Volcanism Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 My god the trailers 0.0 I liked the scenes with Tywin walking in on Geoffry (sp?) and Deaneris (sp?) with an army. The dragon is also beast. I'm pumped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umbra Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 The spellings are Joffrey and Daenerys, respectively. And seven hells, the trailers are amazing. So, so many scenes to look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
