[GENERAL DISCUSSION] [SPOILERS] HBO's Game of Thrones Series

[Louis XVI]

But, who are hte two in the boat at 0:09? Is the castle Dragonstone, Harrenhal or Riverrun?

Me and my friends were wondering about that to, I think it might be the Dreadfort (with a big river besides it) but Storm's End and Riverrun could also be possible even though it doesn't fit the description of any of those castles

[Deska140]

0:20 Is that our poor Theon suffering , imprisoned by this bastard Ramsay ?;p
And the Unsullied... what a power ;d

[Feanaro Curufinwe]

Yes. After all, what can beat Lightly Armoured Eunuchs?

[Mhaedros]

I bet 1 rep the castle is Dragonstone and the people in the boat are Edric Storm and the man who saved him from Stannis madness.

[HannibalExMachina]

its dragonstone

[Mhaedros]

I guess that means someone ows me rep

[Inarus]

Bugger, I need to change my Strat Model -.-

[HannibalExMachina]

only for that obscure submod of yours

dragons, dragonstone looks like lotsa dragons!

[Toho]

I am guessing the dragons are missing because of how much of detail and extra work needed to be made to make convincing stone dragons.
they probably though the money is better spent on something we are going to see for more than 12 seconds in the entire season.

[HannibalExMachina]

ina doesnt have that excuse though

[Deska140]

Yes. After all, what can beat Lightly Armoured Eunuchs?

I know what you mean, just their appearence in the show impressed me ;p

I always imagined them like this:

And the music in the trailer really does it's job.

[Feanaro Curufinwe]

How were they dressed in the books? I remember imagining them with some kind of white tunic and not much else.And yes, they do have a deft hand for picking good trailer music.

[AndariusHaliusScipio]

I saw the trailer around 2am. My dreams were filled with it. Most haunting for me was the sight of Orell Sixskins, Tormungand scaling the wall, and wondering if Styr will be there too. Nightmares of the Long Night. Images of my local city, in twilight, with the sort of excitement of a weekday evening when you have the next few days off, oblivious to the coming night.


Also, I pictured the Unsullied more like Egyptian soldats in Rome Total War, with hats like this:

at trailer: 0:18 - 0:20 SAM THE SLAYER


But it would be far more sensible for them to be actually armored, though clearly not as heavily as the Knights and Men at Arms of Westeros.

[Deska140]

As light as it is, their armor looks pretty badass to me.

[Engie]

I'm going to light the biggest fire the North has ever seen!

[Inarus]

Wow! Impressive quadruple posting Túrin, nice to see you're really excited about the new season! Have a rep cookie, you deserve it after laggily breaking the rules

I thought 9 was to be Autumn Storms or was that merely a working title? Anyway, looks like Martin is getting the fun stuff to write, thought he hated that bit though Really hope there's as strong a musical element as the titles suggest.

[Túrin_Turambar]

damn it

[Deska140]

I would love to hear The Bear and the Maiden Fair ;p

[Heiro de Bodemloze]

Episode 7 was supposed to be "Autumn Storms" then it got changed to "Chains". A few days ago GRRM said on his blog he'd changed the title and gotten a song instead. Now it makes sense. (I totally don't feel geeky after saying this..)

Interesting episode titles imo. "Valar Dohaeris" follows up the season 2 ending "Valar Morghulis", which is a nice thing if you recognize it . It also seems there are a lot more quotes and songs in the titles, very different from the previous seasons and episodes - "Dark Wings, Dark Words", "And Now His Watch Has Ended", "Kissed By Fire", "The Bear and the Maiden Fair" and "Rains of Castamere".

Should be interesting to see who Mhysa is, I'm assuming it's a name. Can't recall anyone in the books named that, anyways.

EDIT: After a quick search on the wiki, "Mhysa" is the Ghiscari word for Mother. Mother of Dragons. You get the jist.
