there is joy in sucking dick
I'm fine with everyone being different shades of ugly on this show since Margaery Tyrell is all the beauty I need (seriously so in love with Natalie Dormer).

Something else I keep forgetting to mention: Melisandre's thin wrap she's wearing in her sex scene with Stannis. Mother fuck.
Yes, I am.
(yes, I hate Tumblr gifs, but I'm working with what I've got!)
Between Dormer, Clarke, and Van Houten, we have the hottest female cast on TV right now.

finally some potential sexposition I'm looking forward to

nailed it.
Wow. Really? Margaery is the biggest butterface on the show except for maybe Theon Greyjoy. I thought maybe it was just a bad picture in the OP, but she looks scarier in motion when I saw the preview. I was like Oh lawd.

Her face is...odd. I think it's the nose. I ain't even mad tho
Most looking forward to [series spoiler]
Irri and Dany. I have the worst feeling that this scene will be either short or nonexistent. If so I'm going to be even more annoyed by the sexposition scenes than I am now.

She's an aquired taste, most definitely. Her upturned nostrils and sour puss were the first things I noticed when I saw the Tudors. But her attitude and personality win you over quickly and man, she's just very sexual. Even just looking at someone.

Can't really put my finger on it but I find her extremely attractive. I can see why people would think she looks odd though. I agree with PD that her nose is a bit upturned but she has an unconventional sort of beauty to me. Physically she has beautiful eyes and lips and her way of talking and mannerisms sort of reminds me of Kate Bush.
I'm sure she'll look a bit more homely in this series though

I'm thinking [Series Spoilers]
She wasn't actually a virgin, and surprise tv reveal she is a huge whore and everything cersei said about her was right

Possibly. I was wondering how they were going to do that, too.
Series:
it's one of the biggest debates in the book whether she's even a virgin still and if so, who she has fucked.

But we already know that Renly is gay so I think she at least (AFFC spoiler)
hasn't slept with him. And if I'm not missing anything, in the books she didn't sleep with any of the people Cersei accused her of sleeping with.

Well, what's interesting is that in a very recent Q&A George said (possible light ep3/4 spoiler?)
that they're not "gay" as "gay is a word that was made in the 60s". He said they were "lovers". I wonder if he's hinting that one or both are only casually fucking each other and Renly may in fact swing both ways, much like how some people in the dark ages did.
Just read the book for the first time in the last two weeks, so it's all still pretty fresh for me. Wasn't finished with the whole thing by episode 1 of this season but was ~200 pages into the third book by episode 2.

Wow, she and her hair look amazing here. They really need to put more money into the wig department on this show. Lol
agrajag, label your spoilers please.
She looks much better here than in the series. Well I guess (ACoK)

it doesn't matter since she's just a beard anyway for now. I can't remember if that was established in the first season, so I put it in spoiler tags.
That's possible, but I remember in ACOK
how they were at a feast, and Renly was kind of ignoring Margaery and kept giving Loras glances. That makes me think that he is in love with Loras and couldn't give less of a fuck about Margaery.
What spoilers? Renly being gay was revealed in Season 1. Whoever is watching Season 2/reading this thread is already spoiling Season 1 for themselves.

AFFC
They are trying to make Cersei more sympathetic. It wouldn't surprise me if they went with, and that she was right all along, Poor Cersei angle to achieve that. I don't like the trend, and I don't think they are succesfull at it. The only rehabilitation of her character I liked was her added scene with the King in Season 1
I'm pretty sure Yara was cast immediately before the show started filming, so that might explain why she isn't in better shape. Or she just might not care. Loras really was a twig, but I can get over it.
I am not a fan of Margaery's actress. I think she is a pretty woman, but she just has a face that I find irksome. I also hate her Garrus dress.
I realize I have fallen into the trap of nitpicking characters, but oh well. I'm still on board, and I don't think being critical of casting is a problem.
People are probably inferring things based on the general flow of the conversation you are participating in. Nothing major, but I spoilered you in my quote to avoid offending.
No. I mean label your spoilers, so we know what book you're talking about inside your spoiler tags, so people know what to highlight.
Like so:
(ACoK)
omg yay.
I see you're doing that now though.
Sorry, I thought if I spoiler tagged it was all gravy. I'll edit my posts.

Is there a thread for book discussion with marked spoilers?

Thanks for the link, but the general discussion in there is still way too broad for me. I'll just wait until I finish AFFC and ADWD.
Yep.
And the gifs don't nearly do her justice. I can't bring myself to complain about Yara when Mel is filling out the show's hotness quota so nicely.

Theon Greyjoy is Lily Allen's brother? wat
(this isn't a spoiler for the series or the books btw)
He has a nice penis.

He's a compelling character because he's practically invincible due to his intellect and self preservation. He climbs ladders and destroys the rungs on the way up. Even when he seemingly gets the raw end of a deal, he still ends up on top. That Cersei exchange with him is a great example.
Littlefinger in this show is a weird amalgam of Al Swearengen and Gaius Baltar.

I think this is from episode 2, someone inform me if not.
It is.
I understand the age increase of the Stark children but why is Margaery Tyrell so much older in the tv series? In the books she is sixteen but in the tv series she looks to be in her late twenties. I understand that marrying a sixteen year old girl to Renly seems pedophilic but
And it seems they totally changed her character too, understandable though because of the age increase.
she is to marry Joffrey later and Jack Gleeson is 16/17?

I imagine that it's a product of casting Natalie Dormer. Besides, they've aged up everyone.
Everyone is getting aged up. Sansa was what, 13 in the books? I think she's 16 in the show and even that'll be skirting the borders of what you can show on TV.
Wasnt that chick in an episode of the Wire in season 5? She played like, another cop that Mcnulty knew in the morgue or some shit. She didnt look to bad then.
Yeah, Natalie Dormer has a weird face. Totally not Margaery material imo.
I know, but that 3 years older than in the books. Margaery has a major age increase, from 16 to 28? Or how is old she supposed to be in the tv series?
But i understand it now, as somebody on Westeros.org pointed out. The age increase is done because they want to change Margaery to someone who opposes Cersei. And the age increase makes that more believable than a sixteen old who plays a game of wits with a grown woman.
John Dunbar
correct about everything
Question about season 1, but involves A Storm of Swords spoiler:
Did the Hound kill the butcher's kid in the show like he did in the book? If he did I totally forgot about it. If not, it would alter the dynamic between him and Arya quite a bit.
^Yes

shit i didn't even realise Carice van Houten was Melisandre...
she's a great actress.

So... can we finally agree that Carice makes a great Melisandre?
As a side note, what's the deal with human trafficking in Westeros? I know that slavery is a big no-no in the mainland, but how come pimps like Littlefinger get to purchase women for his brothels? Isn't this a little bit contradictory?
