The SONG OF ICE AND FIRE Thread

[First Blood]

I need to pick these seasons up soon. Been having an itch to watch them ever since the season three promos started.

Here's a 14 minute long recap for Season 2.

Also doing a rewatch of the first two seasons.  Halfway through the first one now.  While doing so I introduced a friend to the series...he said he raged pretty good when The Ned was killed...

He better save some of that rage for the future, especially for...

Oh, I know...I'm not saying anything about it...I think it will be even better that he will be seeing it onscreen for the first time instead of reading it ahead of time 

And I felt the same way, still do.  I think the only way to get over it is to share it with others...

He said it would have been worse but he had season 2 jump right into afterwards, meanwhile I'm thinking "Just you wait.... "

With her hair like that, Ygritte looks a bit closer to how I imagined her in the book.

She knows it will just turn on Jon even more. Can't wait to see their banter continue from where it left off.

Great pics - I want mooaare.

She's aiming for his heart.

The unforgiving irony... considering I've almost finished with book 3...

HBO have released an official synopsis for Valar Dohaeris, the first episode of Season 3.

http://winteriscoming.net/2013/03/hbo-release-confirms-season-3-premiere-title-and-synopsis/

As Blackwater Bay cools, the victors consolidate their power and rebuild King's Landing. But new challengers for the Iron Throne rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all – survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn.

Based on the bestselling fantasy book series by George R.R. Martin, GAME OF THRONES is an epic story of treachery and nobility set on the continent of Westeros, where summers and winters can last years, and only the lust for power is eternal. The Emmy®- and Golden Globe-winning series returns for its ten-episode third season SUNDAY, MARCH 31 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO, followed by other episodes on subsequent Sundays at the same time.

As season three begins, the Lannisters hold absolute dominion over King's Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon's forces. Yet Robb Stark, King in the North, still controls much of the South as well, and has yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder has united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only the Night's Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms, but nobody knows what happened to its Lord Commander and the force he led beyond the Wall.

Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver's Bay in search of ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.

I never thought Rose Leslie was particularly nice looking in Season 2, though she played the role so well that I found her perfect. In that picture however, she looks like the Ygritte I always imagined!
