Watching that trailer reminds me how I've always thought the show doesn't have enough diversity. Pretty much all the boobs are that same b-c cup.

hahah...I'm pretty sure Ros was rocking a D cup, but she dead now

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Highest reviewed season so far.  Greenwald's review on grantland was pretty good.

spoiler here though - thumbs up or down on the r+l=j mentioned at the end of the video, for those who have gotten that much into it.

:yay

up

makes sense to me.  only Howland Reed knows for sure, right?

Yes, only Howland as far as I can tell, but who knows before then? Not sure how much you've read but I saw a contradictory story in early DWD. I'll still go thumbs up though.

Munson

I haven't read ahead, but I really hope Howland Reed comes into the story in Book 6, if he hasn't appeared yet. He seems like he's going to be vitally important to the overall story...especially if there's to be any redemption for House Stark.

I've read them all, but I wouldn't claim to know them very well.


It seems possible to me that Bran could somehow know it,  or learn of it, as well.  I mean, he could mind meld with Howland by now, right?

Also, Assuming Jon is dead, what's it matter anyway?  He leaves no progeny.  And if he's not dead, then farg this guy for constantly pulling that trick.

Been watching some of the marathon...the scenes with Tywin and Arya in Season 2 are still really damn good.

Yep Charles Dance is awesome.  Tywin is a great character -- one that is improved on screen IMO because of the strong portrayal. 

Season 2 reminds me how tedious Dany's story was then and how entitled she was, screaming all season about her dragons.


Munson

haha yeah, I wasn't a big fan of her story in season 2.....WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS

[spoiler]no chance he's dead -- Mel was right there when he 'died.'  It's my biggest complaint about GRRM and why I hope Stoneheart doesn't make an appearance in the show (though I think she's going to).  He became too reliant on cliffhangers (but not good ones) in the last two books.  Things like the ending of Brienne's chapters in AFFC, Jon's in ADWD etc are cheap narrative devices.  I have faith in the show to handle things better than that.[/spoiler]
