Game of Thrones - SPOILERS INSIDE
 
Has anyone been watching this? I've just watched the first two episodes and It's pretty bloody good, Apparently it's based on a series of books called 'Stories of Fire and Ice' which I havn't read.

It's a bloody good program though I'm completely gripped and cannot wait till episode three. I kind of feel like I did at the beginning of Prison Break.

The acting, costumes and sets all look brilliant. Sean Bean is obviously great and theres some fit women and sex and nudity in it to.

I endorse this program and will gladly discuss it with all of you.

Requiem 04-29-2011 12:58 AM

Yes, it's been wonderful. I'm really looking forward to the rest of the season.

El Vaquero de Infierno 04-29-2011 06:13 AM

If I had Sky Atlantic I would watch this show. I'll wait until it comes out on DVD.

Brigstocke 04-29-2011 09:02 AM

You could always d/l it illegally from the interweb or watch it on Daily Motion or something?

El Vaquero de Infierno 04-29-2011 09:33 AM

i will look into this

Brigstocke 04-29-2011 09:43 AM

If you have A torrent program there are plenty available.

I downloaded these ones

http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/2...01?tab=summary
http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/2...02?tab=summary

Both work well, You just need VLC Media player to view it due to most versions of Windows Media Player not recognising the file type/not having the correct codecs to run it.

You can get VLC Media Player here.

Also, if you haven't watched it, watch Rome. Only 2 seasons, but it is :heart:.

Fignuts 04-29-2011 03:16 PM

Yeah, loved the first two episodes of this.

Buzzkill 04-29-2011 03:21 PM

Watched the first half of the first ep and really liked it, need to get on this "asap"

Nark Order 04-29-2011 03:21 PM

Almost done with the first book. I'm in a trance

Miotch 04-29-2011 03:25 PM

I'm almost through the 2nd book. I resisted reading Game of Thrones but I now love it.

Narc, who is your favorite character?

CSL 04-29-2011 03:30 PM

Missus bums it being a history teacher and all that, 'right up her street'. I've caught bits, the blonde bird looks great with no clothes on.

El Vaquero de Infierno 04-29-2011 03:34 PM

Pics or GTFO :roll:...:shifty:

CSL 04-29-2011 03:44 PM

It's really a tough call, to be honest. There is so much character development in this fucking book. There isn't one character that I really "dread" or anything when there's a chapter in their POV. Some of the Catelyn chapters are a bit dry, but usually end on some fantastic cliffhanger.

This might be a bit of an odd choice, but the Daenerys chapters probably hold my interest the very most. The way she transformed from this scared little helpless girl to the feisty wife and "keeper" (of sorts) of a blood thirsty Doth'Raki savage was pretty tremendous and it happened so quickly. The way her relationship with Viserys basically flip flopped over night was a pretty cool element to the story. She was scared to death of him and respected his "power" for the first part of her entire life...and now... not so much.

Also, Tyrion is a little shithead and I love him.

Brigstocke 04-30-2011 02:02 AM

Tyrion is the shining beacon of greatness in the first two episodes.

whiteyford 04-30-2011 04:36 PM

Is the series following the books closely so far, fancy reading them now but i don't want to spoil the series for myself if that makes sense?

St. Jimmy 04-30-2011 06:50 PM

Fantastic so far.

The Destroyer 05-02-2011 04:00 PM

Seen the first two and I'm just about to watch episode 3. Excellent stuff so far.

Good cast as well.

Brigstocke 05-03-2011 01:03 AM

Jolly good show, I hope Tyrion isn't killed off now over this dagger business.....

Downunder 05-05-2011 06:15 AM

Yep, three episodes in and I'm hooked (actually I was hooked at the end of the first episode)

Requiem 05-05-2011 07:57 PM

Where the hell did my other post go in here?

Requiem 05-16-2011 03:17 AM

Just bumping this thread to say holy fucking balls that was an awesome episode (ep 5)

Miotch 05-16-2011 01:39 PM

Yeah that was pretty fucking incredible.

Brigstocke 05-17-2011 03:31 AM

Best episode yet. It all seems to be coming together at the series midway point here.

Snowden 05-19-2011 12:58 AM

Amazing amazing show...best thing HBO has put out in quite some time.

Brigstocke 05-20-2011 01:02 AM

Since Sex in The City no less. :shifty:

I think we should all start using characters from the show as avatars and having their names as Customer titles like all the 'Ghostbusters' ones from a while ago in a daft attempt at growing the 'cult' of people watching from the boards.

Snowden 05-20-2011 02:18 AM

I was thinking the same thing, but going w/ the different houses instead. Though if I'm going character, Jon Snow is mine.

Regardless, here's where we'd go: http://www.hbo.com/#/game-of-thrones...d/avatars.html

Requiem 05-20-2011 02:18 AM

Done.

Brigstocke 05-20-2011 02:36 AM

Epic lads, Epic.

Snowden 05-20-2011 02:36 AM

Done as well, though mildly sad to see Req's avatar gone.

Brigstocke 05-20-2011 02:44 AM

Here you go Narc,

The Destroyer 05-20-2011 04:02 PM

Good episode, as always. :y:

Good idea on the avatar thing. Who to choose though?

Requiem 05-20-2011 04:55 PM

Your current avatar makes me think of either The Mountain or The Hound

You are Khal Drogo.

Miotch 05-20-2011 06:56 PM

I'll claim The Kingslayer though I'm not changing my avatar.

Brigstocke 05-21-2011 01:57 AM

Well then fuck you.

Fignuts 05-21-2011 02:00 AM

My avatar is far too iconic to change for a tv show.

Brigstocke 05-21-2011 02:35 AM

This TV show is too Iconic for your avatar more like.

Fignuts 05-21-2011 02:48 AM

Brigstocke, clearly misunderstanding the depths of my greatness.
