Didn't seem overly dark to me, maybe you should turn up the brightness on your tv :p

Jon's story seems to be diverging from the book quite a bit. Also looks like they have cut out some characters which is understandable but still :(
 
It was pitch black! And i was watching it on a CRT, which tends to deal with low light situations well :p

Stop it FFS

Gilly


What did i do now‽

Cool it guys or you're off on holiday.

No problem, end of from me, apologies it turned into a personal quarrel. My final say on the matter is this, spoiler tagged so you don't have to read it if you don't want to.

This is the exact post George made... http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=21655091&postcount=1950
...which would be an epic, if rather dark, note to end on.

I feel sorry for the Starks :(

I can't believe anyone who has read the books and even some of those who haven't don't see this as a spoiler. I wasn't even the first person to post I thought it was a spoiler, Huw was.

Anyway, i've read the books, didn't spoil it for me, just don't want it ruined for others. Peace out and good night :D
 
How so? He's gone North past the wall with the Night's Watch and that seems to be in line with the book IIRC.

The whole bit with Craster and Jon isn't in the book. Also, I think it was only rumours in the book about what he did with his sons. Can't go into any more detail until I've seen next weeks episode but unless nothing meaningful happens with the cliffhanger then it will be a pretty big change from the book.

Yes, you're right. I see what you mean.
 
Anyone else a bit disappointed that old man Craster managed to sneak up on Jon? Doesn't say much about his ranger skills :p I hope they don't make him a pansy who gets beaten up by that perv.
 
That doesn't happen in the book, so artistic license taken by the writers. I really wouldn't worry about it ;)

Anyone else worried that the writers are taking a little too much artistic license?

My main peeve of S1 was the fact Tyrion gets knocked out before he even fights with his Vanquard, in the book he does fairly well in the fight and in return earns respect from his father, Tywin. I have no idea why they changed this, it could have been filmed on minimal budget.
 
Well i just watched episode two, were we actually supposed to be able to see anything in the last scene? I mean i know directors seem to have a thing with low light shots lately but i say maybe a foot and part of a face. Who was it and what the hell was going on?

noticed the same, all of a sudden I had to sit up in bed because I thought I lost picture. My plasma can be sucky for dark scenes though :mad:
 
What point in the books is the tv series at? I want to read so I'm always behind the tv series but wasn't sure if a series equated to a book?
