'Game of Thrones' series Greenlighted

Posted by Jack S. Pharaoh on Tuesday, March 2, 2010

Holy fuck, yes. I know this means nothing to almost everyone here, but I've been waiting for this since the book series was first optioned three years ago. They even released the first production still, a shot apparently from the prologue of the book. So, yes, people, deal with me starting random threads and forcing irrelevant knowledge upon you. This is how Jack does business, aggresively and in a pompous third-person. Pray I never decide to educate the lot of you about pregnancy.

That's just one way he can do it.

So I finally got the first episode watched. (Yay, me!) So there were a couple things I missed from the books: the fight in the prologue between the captain and the white walker (instead of just being killed instantly), Theon kicking the head of the decapitated dude (without that I can't believe anyone's going to remember him. I don't even remember hearing his name), the hidden clue in the gift from Caitlyn's sister. I didn't really like them saying "Winter is coming", and then they said it twice. And they kind of hammered Bran not supposed to be climbing about on the walls. That aside, I did enjoy the episode. Most of the characters I felt fit well into their roles. (I wasn't always convinced by Lena Heady's wig). I didn't have to know a thing about the story in order to hate Joffrey on site! Highlights for me were Jon Snow, Dinklage, and the scenes with Dany and her brother. And damn, but they like the doggie style!

Have to say, I was pretty goddamn disappointed that my favorite Stark brat Rikkon was nowhere to be found. I'd almost hope he'd been written out altogether, but they said "5 direwolves for 5 Stark children", so I know he's in the woodworks somewhere.

So I thought they slowed things down considerably for the second episode. Some nice dialogue between all the major players. Those direwolves still don't come across as very menacing, despite have attacked people twice. Cat is really coming across as a big ol' bitch to Jon Snow. Don't remember her being that horrible to him. And Joffrey may be an even bigger cunt then he was in the books. Got some good Hound moments, though he repeated his "He'll remember that" line from the pilot. We heard you the first time, Houndy! Also, wasn't sure where they would end the episode, but it made sense where they did. And I STILL haven't spotted Rickon. Guess I should re-watch the first ep, because apparently he's in there.

He's mentioned in the first episode, but I don't recall seeing him.

He's standing in line when the King arrives at Winterfell. Not that you'd really remember him.
