Gwendoline Christie is 6' 3"!
Agree with you. I was afraid they were going to case someone who looked as ugly as Brienne seemed to be described in the book, but Christie, while no great beauty (at least here), is a much more pleasant looking Brienne.

Just watched the 4th episode. Remember Conan Stevens who played Gregor Clegane aka the Mountain that rides last season?


The Mountain returns in the 4th episode but he's now played by a different actor, who Is quite tall (Charles Dance looked small next to him, yes Tywin also returns :p ), but not as imposing. I know it's just a small role, but still....it bugged me :p

Other than that I thought it was quite good :p

Some of the fanboy contingent are complaining about how parts of Season 2 deviate from the narrative in the books, particularly the Arya and Daenys plotlines. Personally, I think that most of these changes are for the better, since one of Martin's literary flaws is narrative incongruity and illogical character motivations and actions. As long as he keeps the main plot points moving forward, the little changes are fine with me.

Season 2 will probably just finish book 2. Now, if the producers don't pander to commercial concerns and instead leave the important set pieces from Book 3 as they are, Season 3 could be the best one of all. Everything that happens in the books after it pales by comparison.

Considering that this season barely made it through Book 2, and I've heard that season 3 is only going to cover half of Book 3, it's going to decades before they finish the whole series. Little Arya will be a Playboy centerfold and Tyrion will have shrunk to only six inches high by the time this thing is through.

I assume they'll split book three and book 5 like they did for the paper backs so they'll get at least nine seasons out of it all . It'll take George that long to finish the next two books anyway :rolleyes:

If you're thinking of buying the GOT DVD or Blueray set, do it now.

HBO says that future editions are going to cut out a shot in an episode where of a 'piked head' that used a George W. Bush mask.
