Game Of Thrones: Series Two

[Frutos]

Hopefully there are some other fans here of the HBO/Sky Atlantic series "Game Of Thrones" based on the books by George R R Martin. The first series is out on DVD in a couple of weeks, and series two, based on the book "A Clash Of Kings", starts in April. A new trailer has just been released for it, and I can't bloody wait:

read all the books years ago (except the latest one) and thought series one was very good after a couple of shaky first episodes.

they are going for it in this season by using drubovnik in croatia too - looking forward to it

the skirt in the show is incredible it has to be said ;-)

Huge fan of the show. can't wait for it to air.

Can't wait for this to start. Thoroughly enjoyed the first series and now ploughing my way through the books (half way through vol 2 of book 3). I seem to remember reading that the first series was the most expensive tv series ever made so they are going to need a very supportive studio/network if they intend to do all 5 books.

Looking forward to this, enjoyed the book. I've heard they've used a few story lines from the next book as well.

Cam't wait, i'm sure of whether to read the books or just watch the series though

Love the books and loved the series but will it survive to season 5? Think once we get past the Blood wedding it may need padding out for tv.

I agree, it will be interesting to see how it works as/if we get into the later books.

Who is everyone's favourite character, by the way? For me, it's actually Stannis.

Excellent this and mad men coming in march!!

read the books as there is alot more going on in them than will ever be on the tellybox. I got the first book when i saw the first episode and have read all six books so far. Great read

Read the books some time ago, and thought that the series would be rubbish to be honest. Very pleased to be proved wrong, just a real shame that our hero died so early!

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

This is a big reason(ok maybe small) why I love this show. He steals every scene he's in.

Its all down to the viewer ratings they get in the US , decent ratings at the beginning of S2 will give S3 the green light. S3 will decide if there is going to be a S4 and it only needs the launch of a blockbuster on another network to screw things up.

can't wait!! have just seen the billboards going up across LA for it this week... favourite show on TV in years!

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Books do give u a better understanding though. Enhanced my enjoyment of the tv programme no end.
