I have to admit, that I'm most interested and curious as to where Arya's story arch compared to the rest of the characters.

Spoiler

Katniss sucks though, particularly in the third book. I wanted to punch her in the face nearly the whole time.

Spoiler

I actually really enjoyed the new characters in Feasts. I found Arya's chapter not as groovy as ASOS, but I liked them. I was a little disappointed at how little she's in AFFC. Hoping to see her more in ADWD.

I'll agree that I wish Martin simply named the characters in the chapter rather than nicknaming them, i.e. The Queenmaker.

That's good to know. (AFFC)

Spoiler

I liked Arya's entrance to the House of Black and White, but found her time spent there to be pretty boring, especially given how awesome Jaquen/the Faceless Men are. She's just left to go work on the streets, so I'm hoping they tie the storylines together and it becomes more compelling.

 

[umberhulk2]

I loved those chapters.

 

[Trojita]

The extras in the Season 1 Blu-ray does an excellent job of fleshing out what happened before the first book began. Not as good as the book of course, but better than shown in the show.

That CE is too little, too late...

 

[Forsaken82]

Spoiler

I would love several episodes to focus on Arys and Rhegar when Jamie tells his tale. TV viewers really need to know more about these individuals.

I see something like this happening in a Spartacus: Gods of the Arena type deal perhaps if the series should catch up to GRRM's books but Otherwise I have my doubts of flashback moments in the show... they have already had moments where they could have done this and decided to instead have it come from the characters themselves...

Then again perhaps it could be interesting to see this stuff added to certain AFFC segments

Yep, I'm not double dipping.

Arya is one of those characters Martin always puts in his books

I think she is the only character to have had a POV in every book.

The Box for the CE looks really good. Might pick it up since I never bought the original release of season 1 on bluray.

Spoiler

Yup I think so too if my memory still serves me well. I hope they don't screw her over. Dany is already a lost cause.

This might be elsewhere on the forums, but I figured I'd post it here for the GoT fans:

Some scale Minecraft models of a bunch of the castles and places from the show.

damn that's gougey, i already got the first on Blu-Ray...

but this probably means they'll make one awesome box set for when the show is complete

 

[Steelyuhas]

Apparently this is at SDCC. How do I get it?!

Looks like it's being raffled off, judging by the empty bin and pads next to it.

Hodor.





Comic Con panel is tomorrow afternoon at 2:45PM PT.

 

[suzu]

Hodor is a brony? D:

 

[Iksenpets]

Hodor is a brony? D:

Maybe... he's just method acting? And his Hodor persona was lured into the brony lifestyle by bright colors and songs and friendship...? Also, um, bartending? Oh god I can't explain this away. I don't think I can watch this show anymore.

 

[DrForester]

And he's a fan of the best pony!

Hoping there's a round-up of the panel or a video since I'm out tonight.

No live video. A full vid should be available soon after.

Presumably there will be a ton of live blogs and recap articles, as well.

I...am...strangely unsettled.

Holy crap he's good! Love his Viserys, Littlefinger, and Pycelle.

 

[Cornballer]

EDIT: Here's the picture on twitter.

 

[gutshot]

That is freaking awesome.

 

[tirminyl]

That is freaking awesome.

Agreed!

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Indeed. That is quite cool.

Yeah, Hodor likes his drinks 20% cooler...

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Will there be a live stream on the Game of Thrones comic con panel?

 

[Mordeccai]

This is incredibly badass.

though the stickler in me wishes the blade was going through his throat. I imagine that is much harder to make as a costume and it is easier to anchor the shade to his torso rather than affix it to the back of his neck.

And holy SHIT at those minecraft castles. I was able to identify most of them on sight, Moat Cailin was easily the coolest for me, it looked just as I had pictured it and the swampy land surrounding it is great. But what do you guys think this one is? The Eyrie? I was having a hard time because there aren't seven slender towers like its described in the book.

I never noticed Renly winking in that gif before.

This should be starting up in a few minutes if anyone wants to watch the stream from Comic-Con.

Tuned in, who are these dudes?! Where is the GoT?

Oops, as I type this the video is transitioning hopefully to the GoT talk.

 

[Frost_Ace]

I can't find the stream on the ew site .___.

EDIT: chrome did not load the site correctly ._.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the deal is. They're probably just running a little late.


EDIT: They're on.

 

[Lakitu]

George broke the stream for me.

 

[gutshot]

I love how George has two outfits: the suspenders with light shirt and sailor cap and the purple vest with dark shirt and sailor cap.

 

[Angry Grimace]

I couldn't take the waiting in lines, so I skipped out on the panel this year =/

GRRM basically just confirmed that (all books spoilers)

Spoiler

Theon will be in the show (probably not featured a bunch though) in the next few seasons, and won't disappear until Dance events.

I suspect he will get

Agreed, that sounds about right.

Any other info than the one posted above? I'm done with EW's crap stream. Will wait for the panel recap.
