Poll: Winter Is Coming - HBO's A Game of Thrones [READ WARNING]

[Creelers]

Gregor Clegane has also been recast, as Conan Stevens has schedule conflicts with his work in The Hobbit movie. He's replaced by 7'1" Ian Whyte, who appeared in Season 1 as one of the white walkers.

Oooh, hadn't heard about that.

The guy who played Gregor fit him well, I thought.

Sandor is the important one though

 

[Creelers]

I think Gregor is still important to plot events, but Sandor is definitely more important.

And more badass. >_>

 

[Gilly]

I mean in terms of story so far If the guy playing Sandor had to be changed it'd be a bigger problem

Don't think he's been recast just won't be in season two.. At least not without his helmet on lol.

Yeah but im sure I read an interview where they said he would be coming back in season 3. I'm bet they use smoke and mirrors to disguise it's a different actor. No tv show character swaps actors anymore.. Well with the exception of Sparticus for understandable reasons.

Rose Bolton and Ygritte are well cast.

Can't wait till april next year >.<. Might have to start reading the bookssss !

Finchy as Dagmer Cleftjaw? I thought it was Finchy playing Yoren in series 1?

Early march is the eta but no date set on stone. The HBO tradition is to launch it a few weeks before the following season aires.

My sickbeard setup has the start date as 15/04/2012, obviously it is just pulling that from an online database.

WARNING...contains NO spoilers

Really cant wait until this is out, really captures the feel of the books

The person they've cast as Melisandre looks far too pale and North European for my liking, when reading the books I saw her as more Mediterranean/North African.

Rose Bolton and Ygritte are well cast.

You'd be flayed for calling him that.

Really?

Looks almost exactly as I'd imagined

Damn you predictive iPhone text!

 

[DisrupTor75]

wow, truly epic!

Just finished watching the last episode of season 1 and now have to wait a long long time (mid 2012?) for the next lot.

Can't fault it

Okay guys i gotta ask i gave up on this after first episode (I know not a fair chance but it was so hyped up and to me wasnt even close to any hype) Does it get any better as it goes on?

Shows i watch/watched and like:

Supernatural/Fringe/Spartacus/Chuck/BSG/LOST/Nikita/Lost Girl/Being Human To name a few many more okay none of them are similiar but there isnt much close to this i dont think.

There are lots of twists, turns, betrayals and murders ahead. Keep on going, you won't be disappointed.
