There's the funny thread but I didn't want to put random crap in that. Saw this album on Reddit (All book Spoilers): http://imgur.com/a/dO6dQ It's some person's top 10 bits of art about the series Here are 2 of the non-spoilery ones: They've probably all appeared at one time or another on here but it's nice to see them in…

I certainly would be... Croatia is one of the nicest countries I've ever been: the weather is glorious and the sea is crystal clear. I'd take that over filming in Iceland / Northern Ireland any day of the week!

I bet the other actors (esp Bran's little team and Arya) get a bit jealous of missing out on all the craic that must be had with the lively King's Landing cast...

I doubt it. They're too young to have much in common with a bunch of late 30's +

Sophie and Maisie are really good friends and they hang out whenever they can. Maisie mostly films in Northern Ireland and she was saying it's not very glamorous as it rains most of the time :pac:

Are Lena Headey and Pedro Pascal getting it on?! Any time I see a picture of them they're very close/all over each other.

They'd certainly produce good-looking kids!

Pedro Pascal did an AMA on reddit yesterday:

Rumour is that Cersei and Bronn have to be kept apart. Not very fond of each other.

Saw that video over the weekend. It shows how much of the budget is spent on CGI, not just on the major set pieces, but pretty much every outdoor scene uses it.

Definitely.

Usually I hate prequels but a Game Of Thrones one couldn't fail. So much brilliant backstory to work with.

It's unique in the sense that the history of Westeros is often more interesting than the current events. Even Dunk & Egg was marvellous and that was a very centralised story. Realistically though, if there ever was a prequel it would be ghost written. There's no way he could write a satisfying, comprehensive story about pre Roberts Rebellion considering a) he has other books he plans on finishing, b) he wants to venture into sci-fi and c) he says he wants to get into television in more than an advisory role.

Actually now that I think of it b) and c) could be the same project... Regardless, unless GRRM lives to be 150, I doubt a prequel will happen. And I really hope does.

GRRM must be really stuck, he's doing ads for AIB.
