    Nope Harper and the rest of the Rifles will come and break him out.

    Sh!te wrong show. People have to stop giving Sean Bean a sword :P

    Really feel this show is getting going and love the interplay with the main families. The Drogo Dany story is class and moves along well even though they dont get huge air time.

    Have to say though more Anya brilliant little actress.

    And more Direwolves or wolves in general :)

    Anya's actress is so good, it's kind of ridiculous.

    Wow, I hated all of that. Found none of it the slightest bit good or amusing. Not funny.

    oh hi superfanboy, its not that great, but i think it pointed out of a lot of inexplicably stupid decisions we've been talking about, easy pickings but its worth pointing out, like when ned using a magic eightball, because there can be no other possible explanation for his decision making process and when the girl forgives the guy that got her friend murdered.

    What.

    Once again, Ned Stark is the central catalyst for the story, hence his decision making not being perfect. He is primarily there to push the story in certian directions.

    That was the other girl, Sansa. Arya wouldn't forgive Joffrey or the Hound for her friend's death.

    What. Sansa cares about her prince, and getting married, not about her sister's friend that she doesn't even know.

    its a book you know and this is the real world so we can see ned's stupid decisions as stupid decisions and not be bound to a novelists tricks, and we can view ignoring how somebody caused somebody's death as psychopathic, and not simply see it through her eyes as written.

    Was watching the next episode preview when a poster gave a link to in this thread.

    God, those youtube comments
    Full of oneupmanship. "Ok that person isn't a true fan, I asked them about some obscure character and they didn't know. Not a true fan like us...."
    Get a life!

    Not to mention the spoilers

    Have to very careful about watching those previews. Lots of youtube users dying to show off their knowledge and give spoilers.

    Not unlike this thread used to be ;)

    I'm starting to think Ned Stark is a bit slow?, poor Ned Stark.....brave man, terrible decisions!, is he supposed to be this thick or just not cut out to play the game of thrones?


    Any book spoilers about Sansa?....does she get her kit off?

    At 13 years of age, Sophie Turner is the same age as the character she plays in Game of Thrones - Sansa Stark, the ladylike eldest daughter of the Lord of Winterfell.

    Wow. I always thought she looked grown, and thought they made her old enough so we could see a bit of totty at some point.

    ... could you (or someone that does know what you are on about) re-phrase this into something vaguely literate? I can't rebuke your points if they make almost no sense.

    Just 3 episodes left for season 1.

    Also season 2 has been confirmed at 10 epsiodes. GRRM will write the penultimate episode of Seaon 2.

    I'm a little disappointed by only 10 eps again but I'll trust in the decision. Hopefully it means a whopper CGI budget for direwolves and the likes.

    Oh, that's a good point.... she's 15 now. I'm sure the article was right at the time of writing that though, maybe she was 14 during the acting.

    Whatever the case we'll have to wait a few more seasons. :pac:

    Someone posted a spoiler pages back about the White Walkers and claimed it was "just speculation"....well after ep. 8 i call BS on that!!!

    Blatant spoiler, he should be taken out a flogged 50 times [or at least an infraction, not for the spoiler but for lying about it!]

    But,it was just speculation on what he saw of them at the start, and tbf it's not a gigantic leap to come to that conclusion.

    Sorry but it was WAY too specific, others said they hadn't considered that about the White Walkers, i never picked up on it....when ep. 8 dropped i INSTANTLY remembered his post and :rolleyes: my eyes, i might just create a meme for him.
