    I saw that the other day, region free too if i remember correctly. bought a copy myself. should arrive soon.

    -on a different note without spoilers i fully predict, having gotten up to date on the books, that Tyrion wins the game of thrones. 'A short man casting a big shadow' being foreshadowed so often.

     
    i wouldnt be surprised if he was mellisandres predicted champion of rh'llor and not stannis

    so....i set the DVR to record the entire series (which was airing all at once last night), and woke up today to find that only the last half of the season was recorded....WTF.

    anyways, seems to be a lot of good reviews on this show, and i plan on getting into it as soon as i can pick up with the first episode.

    Shouldn't be a problem--HBO and its variant channels play the hell out of the series, and will continue to do so right up till the 2nd season premiere in April.

    Tonight is the night! I finished my blu-ray rewatch yesterday, and I don't think I've ever been this hyped for a premiere.

    Edit: LOL clang, how did I just notice your avatar? So awesome.

    Not had time to watch the first series again... I'm tempted to wait and start watching the new series in a couple of weeks when I've built up a nice buffer of new episodes But then I can't chat about the new episodes

    not watched it yet, currently rewatching the first season on blu-ray, which looks fucking stellar by the way, before starting season 2.

    At this point my brain is so saturated with the characters, world and lore of Ice and Fire that it's really hard for HBO to put out a bad episode, imo. They really nailed the casting and location shooting.

    All of the characters seemed to have settled into their roles, particularly Lena Headey, who showed more range this episode than the entirety of last season.

    Loved it, but there were so many bases covered in the season opener that it just flew by.

    Neil, if you do not know the books well or have not read them recently, you may want to re-watch the series. Because of the expanding of the story line, you will want to be familiar/have excellent recall of where things left off, even with what you may have previously considered second tier or background characters.

    That's all I'm sayin'.
