It's way more realistic, man. Trust me - you'll end up loving it. :-)

Is this show really cheesy, like magic shooting everywhere and talking animals or not? Seriously I don't know crap about it and I'm guessing it is more realistic.

haha.

Game of Thrones is very much inspired by reality. Some deviations may take hold, but it still looks and feels real, and not "magical" at all in any Unicorny sense.

I didn't think it would be, can't wait it just looks so awesome. Buying it on Blu-Ray and enjoying it Spring Break!

Incredibly filmic.

Epic trailer indeed. Love the song. I've never heard of Florence and The Machine - will have to check them out...

Florence + The Machine are my new favs for months now, to hear them in the background of my favorite series... Daumn.

This show is sooo cool. The RPG game for this also looks like it's going to be really awesome, too (playing as a Red Priest = WIN). I don't like Joffrey though, but I didn't like him in the books anyways, so it's more the character annoying me than the actor (apparently, he was also the kid from the Narrows in Batman Begins).

Also, Alan Taylor is apparently going to direct Thor 2. That's.....interesting. I liked the episodes he did a lot, and I guess it'd make sense if they're aiming for a more fantasy angle. (EDIT: And the dialogue and pacing is being rewritten by Robert Rodat, it seems. Surprising 180 for Marvel. :twothumbsup:

)

It's really nice to see the books getting a big boost because of the series too. All in all, really awesome.

Welcome to the thread, Silverheart! :twothumbsup:

Official HD version of "SEVEN DEVILS":

BTW, if you are in the US and a HBO subscriber, you are in luck. Cos HBO seems to have edited the Power and Grace trailer. Grey Wind has been altered and Craster has been introduced. Here's a pic of Grey Wind:

Pretty good CGI, IMHO! :twothumbsup:

Grey Wind looks fucking sick!
