You know, I will admit: I am not the world's most passionate George R. R. Martin fan. I'm not even in the running, given I still haven't read the fourth book. I kind of vaguely thought it was neat that there was going to be an HBO miniseries, you know, hooray genre getting on the telly (not TV, HBO, whatever) and so on.

Okay, so. I AM INVESTED NOW, OH YEAH.

Although this means Sean Bean will ONCE AGAIN die a big heroic death at the end and I will probably reprise my damn half hour of weeping from Fellowship of the Ring. So there's something to look forward to...

Oh, man, wow. I just read them for the first time within the last...what, six months, maybe? All four of them. So I am totally a new fan, and have not yet suffered through years of waiting for book 5 to come out, though I am tapping my toes plenty impatiently now! *g*

But yeah: if anyone's going to make these into tv or film, I feel like it ought to be Peter Jackson or HBO, you know? And actually HBO will probably do it best -- they can handle vast casts of morally-ambiguous characters. &hearts!

Also: did you see the central houses drawn as South Park characters?

Yeah - Arya was not so much younger than me that I didn't identify with her like mad, which. Well. Right.

And, ahahaha, YOU KILLED NED! YOU BASTARDS! ♥
