Game of Thrones (HBO)

I read a quote from him that said, "I don't enjoy writing. I enjoy having written." So I really don't think he is motivated to sit down and finish his saga. He is probably having more fun with tv right now.

this sounds like every writer I've ever known/worked with...including me!

I am halfway through season 2, when does this show get good?

You might as well stop. If you don't think the show's any good by now...wow. It just isn't in your taste range then.

I really like some of the story lines, but some drive me crazy. Move it along, people. And Dinklage's accent is magically delicious, but not British.

He's Westerosi, not English

I'm not buying what mulli's selling. Typical Mulli trying to get a rise.

Good casting choice for Ellaria, but she isn't the Red Viper. They cast Pedro Pascal as Oberyn Martell, Ellaria's lover. I don't really know him, but she's a solid actress.

Typo. Meant to say Red Viper's Girlfriend. I missed that they'd cast the Red Viper already. Good catch. I pictured her a bit older.

No problem Actually, since I haven't seen her for a while, I bet Indira Varma is older, and more like we'd picture her. Who knows? They've done such a great job casting. Did you hear they're re-casting the Mountain That Rides?

For a third time? They are already introducing so many new characters that adding new actors to play established ones will probably confuse casual fans.

They changed him a first time? I wasn't aware.

Yep.

Conan Stevens in Season 1
Ian Whyte in Season 2

Cannot wait!

On a side note, the webmaster of Martin's official website needs shot. I went there the other night and it said something like, "The wait is over! Preorder now, due out October 29th!" Yeah, it was for the paperback version of Dance with Dragons

April 6th! I've marked my Calendar. Cannot Wait!

You mean you weren't waiting for the paperback to come out? Pins and needles over here!

I am excited about this season. The third book was the best and we only got to see half of it play out last year. I've been dying to see the resolution.

Here's hoping the get a bigger budget for one of the biggest battles in the series. Blackwater was okay on TV, but it did suffer from money problems.

I had no concept of how detailed the costumes were until I saw this.

The sets and costumes should win Emmy's by default until this show goes off air. They have some real talent to build such a large, detailed world.

Oh man, I cannot wait! I wish I had made it as an actor. As a former stage combat actor specializing in the broadsword, I would have fit right in.

Keep trying, man. Plenty of big time actors out there that didn't break into acting until late in life.

That ship has sailed, at least for now. Injuries and money drove me away.
