Glad I can finally click the spoiler tags, but fuck the world.

(ACOK/early ASOS):
Given the show's disregard for subtlety, I think they'll just move the ASOS prologue up to this season's finale. So you won't just get the three horn blasts, you'll get the beginning of the camp attack
ACOK/ASOS
Nah. Sam made a point of stating outright what it meant the last episode, and they lingered on it for a few beats. I think the 3 horn blasts will definitely be in, even if they have a shot of Sam saying "Walkers" under his breath immediately after or something.
And though it's probably more fan-service then any definitive proof, the first teaser for S2 ended with the 3 horn blasts anyways.

Did anyone else love Jorah's little speech to Dany?
Something along the lines of:
Centuries come and go without someone like that coming into the world. There are times I look at you and still cant believe that youre real.
I just thought that it was a perfect reminder that Dany is something special in the presence of other awful, terrible kings and contenders.
Man, 20 scenes or so in this ep. Is that a record for the show?
I never mentioned this before but I really like the guy playing Jaqen. He has just the right level of mysteriousness when he speaks.

I enjoyed Stannis saying "sir davos". His accent is coo'I love the way the following words sound when they're said by certain actors
"King"
"Joffrey"
"Baratheon"
"God"
"Grace"
"Winterfell"
"Stanis"
"Direwolves"
It's like a Scotsman is making love to your ears.
You mean the whole "I am a hair stylist from the 24th century." vibe?

LTTP party here on this series. Never read the books and just got caught up on all of the episodes., friends kept reccomending it, so I caved in.
I love everything about it except I was disaapointed to see the low budget the cgi was and the lack of a big scale combat scenes I always expect from a medievle setting show or movie.
Seeing how I thought the show and the books are so popular I expected a bigger budget and ambition on those fronts, hopefully they are saving it all for a one big scale finale war with dragons flying around, like out of LOTR or something.
I can dream, because Dragons are koooooollll. Want more of her character, so sexy, enough of that bastard Ranger, more sexy dragon girl please.

Yeah that damn Dave.If only I was a rich man, I would throw money at this series so it could please me.
If only Dave Cameron was interested in something awesome like this instead of stupid ass 100 year old sunken boat. OK WE GET IT, ITS WAS A BIG SHIP AND IT SANK. THATS WHAT SHIPS DO. Now get the fuck over it and move on.
Sorry about the rant. the Titanic annerversary last week forced me into watching hundreds of documentaries about a ship sinking. I almost blew my brains out at my cousins place.
The budget is actually pretty high right now, something like 70 million.

The Pacific doesn't have to go on for 7+ years, I guess it's easier to commit to only ten episodes with that kind of funding than to having to commit to that kind of budget per season for what could easily end up being more than 10 seasons.HBO spent 200 million on ten episodes of The Pacific and averaged about a million less viewers than Game of Thrones.
Just wanted to say that the lack of shown battles so far is actually not that far from the book. In the book, up until the point we are right now, it's very similarly done to the show - we hear about the aftermath of battles, but don't read the battles themselves.
This gets more complicated as the books go on because battles start being shown, so we'll see where it goes from here.
I don't think so, I'm pretty sure Renly got his throat slit. I recall Loras even saying that he tried to cut through a gorget like whatever it was that killed Renly had done and couldn't do it.
On the ground, Renly's head rolled sickeningly to one side, and a second mouth yawned wide, the blood coming from him now in slow pulses.

3.9M total viewers for the first airing.TVBTN said:Game of Thrones rose a tenth vs. last week and tied the NBA playoffs for the Sunday lead cable with adults 18-49 with a 1.9 rating.
- Ratings up slightly this week3.9M total viewers for the first airing.
Damn! Raise that budget HBO, the viewers demand it!
Don't start reading again. Judging by the amount of whining I see from people who have recently read the books about the tiniest changes made by the producers of the show your enjoyment will probably be ruined. Or maybe it's just the mindset that some people watchThis episode made me realize how much I've forgotten. Which makes sense I guess since I haven't read the books in like five years (still waiting for ADWD MMP).
I feel like some of this stuff happened way later in the books?
Gotcha, yeah. The scene was definitely built to imply (at first) that the Vault was still a problem for Xaro, and Dany might have been the solution. I honestly thought he wanted her dragons to melt it down, or something. Can dragonfire melt Valyrian steel?

Xaro's actually claimed his vault was made of something called Valyrian STONE. Did anyone else catch that? I'm pretty positive that there's no such thing in the books and they just made it up.
Budget and more episodes
HBOs Game of Thrones matched its series-high performance on Sunday night.
The fifth episode delivered 3.9 million viewers at 9 p.m. and 4.7 million viewers total for the night (in fact, digging deeper into the digits, Thrones had more viewers than ever for a premiere episode, but not quite enough to roll over the rounding from its previous high of 3.9 million to 4.0 million I bet it will happen this season, though).
Is it just me or was there no nudity in the most recent episode?
