    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 1 place.

    The young Robert Baratheon, as described in the books, sounded cool. But jaysus he looks like a fückin badass in those pictures. Imagine him rushing towards ya with that warhammer. Poor oul Rheagar didn't stand a chance.

    Robert looks class in those pics.

    Going by his casting in the TV show, he must have got shorter as his stomach got bigger, he looks a giant there.

    He's supposed to be 6ft6 and built like a brick ****house.
    So is Renly.

    Presumably Stannis is around that too.

    I thought Addy nailed it in terms of character and it's fair enough scaling them down a bit (Gregor Clegane is supposed to be nearly 8ft tall) but having the Baratheons sub 6ft makes it harder to believe that they were these Collossi on the battlefield.

    A Tale of Benjen Stark

    A fan made short speculating on what Benjen Stark got up to north of the wall after leaving Jon Snow at Castle Black.

    This is purely speculation based on what we've seen on the TV show to date.

    Book spoiler

    1st clip looks like we'll have that duel after all :D . Looks similar to that scene in Troy. I might be wrong but that's what it looks like!

    I wonder who Dany's warrior will be :)

    I really hope it's Strong Belwas, but I'd sure it'll be Barristan or Daario. I always thought Dany's idea of not risking throwing out someone too valuable showed maturity on her part though. Plus, Belwas is awesome.

    Strong Belwas was cut (no pun intended) from the show. Whoever champions Dany is likely already in the show
    ..edit Shìt Im on the phone, will someone censor what I said?

    Could be the giant Mag the Mighty. He managed to get into the tunnel system under the Wall during the Battle of Castle Black.

    Looking good but there looks like there are more changes! Just hoping it doesn't stray away from the book too much!
    Looks like Daario is the one doing the duel for Dany as he's the only one not there before you see the horse charge and we know Strong Belwas isn't in it

    Yes but we knew that would be a change. Im more upset over actors changing tbh. The third change for the Mountain and a change for Daario, I dont know how well thats going to pan out.

    To be fair to the mountain, his only scene of note was killing off his horse at the hands tournament. I think he appeared for about 20 seconds at Harrenhall in season 2 or 3, all his other mentions have been when he's offscreen. The change from one giant bearded bloke to another isn't going to be that much of an upheaval!
