A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
The premier is April 17 at 9p.m!
For those of you unaware it is based off of George R.R Martin's series "A song of fire and ice" is easily one of the best fantasy series that has ever been written. Mark it on your calenders because it's going to be a good one! |

It looks too dark. I mean the lighting. Unnecessarily dark. I did like the books though (although I'll probably never finish the series).

Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
My friend loves these books and is strongly encouraging me to watch them before the series comes on.

Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
My room mate (who is a woman) has been looking forward to this show. About a month ago, she had a threesome with some hottie. Well on Friday night I had sex with the hottie and my room mate is now livid with me to the point of where "our friendship is on the line" - and she may not watch A Game of Thrones with me anymore. So my question is: Does she have a right to be upset with me? Do you think we will still watch the show together?

What did you guys think of the premier? Never read the books, but enjoyed the first episode.

Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
I had not heard of this series before last night, nor read the books. I was flipping channels, went to see what was on HBO, read the info, decided to give it a shot and by the end of the hour+ I was completely hooked. I will be watching the series.
Regarding the actual episode, I felt like they used it to introduce us to the characters and upcoming plot lines, so on its own it wasn't going to be anything too spectacular. |
Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
I just finished the book and was blown away. If the series is anywhere close to the books, you'll definitely want to keep watching!
However, I don't have HBO. Anyone know of a good site where I can watch? |
Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
Not gonna lie, that scene with the brother and sister weirded me out.
|
Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
Watched it last night. Decent pilot ep. I'm curious how everything will shake out now. That last scene made me jump. Also, let's hope we see a lot more of the blond chick that married the warrior guy. She's fucking smoking.

Watched it last night having never read a page of the books. Pretty decent. Lots of characters, though, so its going to take a while to figure out who is who (and who is where, and why). The opening scene was well choreographed and the cinematography was excellent throughout.
I thought the scene with the mother telling the boy to stop climbing was cheesy as shit and reeked of foreshadowing. It was obvious as hell how that episode was gonna end. Overall, though, well done. |
Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
I just watched the first episode last night and thought it was pretty good. I like darker shows.

Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
HBO has ordered a second season already.

I've watched it twice. I'm indifferent right now, but I'm going to keep watching.

I just felt like they forced that stuff into the show to make it seem less nerdy. Maybe they lifted the dialogue right out of the source material, but it just didn't feel right. The dialogue in Sopranos, the Wire, and Deadwood was definitely more crude, but it flowed better, because they always talked like that. EDIT: I think it can and probably will get better. In the pilot of the Wire, Rawls drops the N-word, which is totally out of character for every cop in the show. Maybe the creepy blond guy won't be telling his sister he'd let 40k people fuck her ever again. |
Re: A Game of Thrones (HBO Series)
Thought it was a pretty strong intro episode. I like how they relief rather strongly on the source material. A lot of the things that happened I remember very clearly. It looks like they haven't taken to many liberties with the work quite yet. I haven't read the first book A Game of Thrones in around 10 years but it was really interesting to see it happen on screen. It's my understanding George R.R. Martin (The author) had a strong voice in the creation of the series - so that bodes well.
