What, you noticed something about shirts before you noticed something about sharts? Shame on you, you are no GRRM fan.

I, too, once knew a man with terrible flatulence. Also someone just sent me this. It's EW, so I didn't really read any of it, but it's a new casting for Oberyn. Pedro Pascal will play the role. http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/06/28/thrones-red-viper-oberyn/

That dude is not like I envisioned Oberyn to be like, but he might nail the actual acting part of the show and I've heard rumours that might be a large part of it.

Oh god, I've had these sitting here for about two years: Thrift stores, ehhh. Cool, cool, but can you try to get some sympathy with that? Writing is much like rape, you see, because

Oh poo poo just noticed that stealth spoiler, though I suppose it's vague enough. (bonus trivia: the author's name is Fish, for real)

"The first three books were sequential, each covering a year" Um, almost certainly less than that. Gilly's pregnancy makes it pretty obvious the second and third book, at the very least, are within months of one another. I would be surprised if the entire series so far spans more than three or four years.

Blade_of_tyshalle posted:"The first three books were sequential, each covering a year" A Game of Thrones is 298AL. A Dance With Dragons is 300AL, with Joffrey's wedding in Storm being new years day in 300AL. There's a maximum of two years in the time line, and depending on when in 298AL poo poo hit the fan, it could be closer to a year or it could be close to three depending when ADWD ends.

Yeah but Westeros has summers that last 10+ years, it's possible they've got long years or something.

Isn't it literally only the continent of Westeros that this bullshit with the seasons occurs on? No one ever seems all that concerned with impending winter on Essos.

This is why the show is hilarious. The books take up around 18 months of time, give or take up to six months in either direction, and yet the actors are all aging rapidly. By the time this show is done, Bran will be a 12-year-old boy being played by a 20-year-old Isaac Hempstead-Wright.

says if we ever see rear end'hai it'll be as vague as ROTK with some "people in the east are weird and ride elephants or whatever" bullshit then nothing will happen because GRRM. Rannos22 posted:Lots of poo poo happens in Essos! The best post.

We covered this a few hundred pages ago, I think? The basic gist of it is the 'free cities' and everything are south of King's Landing and only the northern tips / that ice island with whale hunters is affected.

Re-re-read bookchat: What is Littlefinger's motivation to pin the attempted Bran stabby stabby on Tyrion? I never did understand this, seeing as it was Joffry's idiocy. That and 'finger would have known nothing about the attempted stabby stabby until Cat is already on-site with the dagger. Fog Tripper fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Jun 29, 2013 |

He technically is a Lannister. Unless Petyr was oblivious and just being kind enough to point out the dagger was not his and Tyrion might know?

Because implying the heir to the throne did something is far more dangerous, and sounds crazy. An ugly dwarf with a vile reputation? Much more believable

http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/9102336/the-return-hbo-game-thronesquote:The story lines move forward and dig deeper as the episodes progress but rarely circle back and almost never pause for reflection. When I asked Benioff and Weiss if it was possible to infer any overall intentionality to the upcoming 10 episodes, they sneered. "Themes are for eighth-grade book reports," Benioff told me. So that's how we got Game of True Blood.

Everyone forgets Sothoros. Soon a dark army of half ape half men will pour forth and lay West to Essos as the Free cities flee to Westros, the last bastion of freedom and hope. I should post that as speculation in TVIV and see how many people start seriously discussing Sothoros as a potential plot device. Or freak out because I spoiled the name of another continent.

It took seeing all of the continental names in one place, but I just realized that Westeros is the "western" continent, Essos is the "eastern" continent and Sothoros is the "southern" continent. I bet there is a Nothros out there somewhere!
