Too old. She's pretty, but in her first audition she dosen't seem inocent enough. I don't think she has the acting chops to play Dany. If you give her a hair cut and dye it I can see Shae.
I have all kinds of faith in HBO's alredy there fan base. I thought True Blood was corny when I first watched it. I didn't hear any hype for it either. I just saw new show on HBO and I watched. As I said I thought it was corny. That didn't stop me from watching it. It was still done right even for the bad acting of Sookie (she is so fine). Plus HBO is still upset for giving up on DEADWOOD and ROME two fabulous series that they pulled the plug on to early. They'll do just fine. After all.
It's not T.V. it's HBO.
I'm pretty sure people will get the idea that this is not a show for kid as soon as Ned takes off Gared's head. Ondy 2112, I don't know why you wouldn't want to see Martin get the respect he deserves. He is often reffered to as one of the greatest fantasy writers of our generation, but he doesn't get credit for just being one of the greatest writers for his originality and unpredictability. Personally the more people who read ASOIAF the happier I am. It's too good of a story for just us to know about.
I think the characters grey personalities will be o.k. Deadwood had these types too and it worked for them. I'm just hoping that the show goes through ASOS. This series has a plot where there is always something going on, so as long as they choose their clifhangers with care they should have the buzz they need to build a huge following. Besides with so many reviews talking about the potential for this series imagine all the attention it will recieve when people actually see Dinklage talking shit to Thorne.
I thought that Aidan Gillen was awesome in the Wire, but to me I think James Callis looks the part of Littlefinger. There is something devious about him. Aidan Gillen is a terrific character actor, but I don't know if he can pull off the ruthlessness of Littlefinger.
Hey guys long time reader first time poster. WIC, I really enjoy this website. I've been a ASOIAF fan for a long time. My mom and Grandma originally tried to get me to read the series. It wasn't until my buddy's older brother got out of prison that I actually did. At the time I was reading The Camulod Chronicles by Jack Whyte, a great series. He saw me reading that and recomended AGOT. I thought it was strange that these people who are so opposite love the same books. Needless to say I fell in love with them and have been hooking all my friends since. I just wanted to know if any of you have heard anything about Brian Thompson being in the series. I saw it on IMDB, but I know that it's not a reliable source. Anyone?
First.
