Starting to feel like it really wont get going until about series 4 or 5, lots of seeds being planted and not much going on. Liking it though. I reckon Joffrey will have pubes by the time it finishes for good.

I love watching this but never have any idea what's going on outside of the particular storyline they're focusing on, the big picture is going over my head and I never have any idea who is who. think I'm gonna give the books a read before the next season, should help me figure it out

+1 to all this apart from the reading bit. There seem to be lots of little things going on everywhere and I can't keep up. Might help if I concentrated a bit more I suppose. I'm going to guess that by the end the bird with the dragons wins.

that's what you'd expect from a normal series but after the rather unexpected death at the end of season 1 I'm not assuming anything. hope she does win though, she can rule me anyday

Mantis - I would like to thank 77dave for his more realistic take on things.

Cant stand the Dragon bird. I reckon Sean Bean's bastard son who is trapsing about in the snow will be the winner in the end, and that the little girl who pretends to be a boy will be the one to kill Joffrey. Also think the massive blonde bird in the armour will get it together with the massive bearded bloke in the armour.
Peter Dinklage is the best thing about it (and the violence and the boobies).

Well it's called A Story of Fire (Dany?) and Ice (Jon Snow?) so I reckon those two will either be knocking boots or knocking swords by the end of the series.

fwiw, I could've watched a whole series of Arya and Tywin or Tyrion and Bronn, both pairs have amazing chemistry. Brienne and Jamie looks a promising pairing too.

I don't think its that hard to follow. Maybe in the final eps they didn't explain very well that Robb Stark's chief advisor guy Roose Bolton: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/File:Roose_tvseries.jpg had his son Ramsey Snow (Snow is the surname for all that are bastard born) take 500 men to Greyjoy and his crew in Winterfell to deliver the message. And it was poor that they said that the boys had to move North because "they might come back". Could've come up with something better than that I thought. In the books I believed they left much sooner. Is it right that magic and the walking dead ppl at the end exist again because of dragons being alive again? My least favourite part of the story is all the Danaerys parts (the girl with the dragons), but I love all the rest, especially the bits with Arya and Tyrion (supposed to be everyones 2 favourite characters I guess). Lord Varys is pretty com too.

tbf Brent, Dany's story is so good in the first book that it takes a while to get going again after that. The Boltons are gonna get very interesting in season 3 imo.
Because they need to keep the narrative going and there are characters that don't appear in whole books they have to stretch out storylines so you don't forget about them. They've already said that from series 2, it's going to be less 'directly from the book' and more 'based on' so that they can move stuff around to fit a TV narrative.

Good point about stretching the storylines out, I guess they have to do that. Martin hasn't written the 6th book yet and will probably take another 3 or 4 years to write the 7th and probably final one (wants to keep it linked with seven kingdoms etc.) so they will have to space the series' out to a certain extent It'll be like Harry Potter, some of the characters (the minority that never die) will have to be in it filming in it for like 10 years!

There is no better feeling than rocking up in a city for the first time, with nowhere to stay and everything new - so liberating.
