I don't think so. ??? This particular woman has been advertising Aveda products several months now in alot of magazines. I think, with her beautiful dark hair, pretty eyes, and darker skin tone, she would be perfect to play the Arianne character in Game of Thrones.

The new Miss America is from India, or had parents from India, something like that.

Poor Margaery. So pretty, and sweet and has such bad luck with men.
First, she was married to a very handsome king who just happened to be gay. As sexy as she is, Margaery could not seduce him. Sadly, he was murdered. Then, secondly, along came King Joffery, who was quite taken by Margaery's beauty, and class. So, she accepted his proposal. They seem to get along well. However, as everyone knows, Joff is a psycho, and his sadism extends to the bedroom. Anyway, King Joff is murdered, too. And, then, thirdly, Joff's little brother Tommen(who is 10 years old) steps in to help Margaery save face and marries her. Since Tommen is just a kid it will be a few years before the marriage can be consummated so, poor Margaery is literally left in the cold again.........

A little dreamcasting there, Joe might be a realistic fit but not seriously, Kim. In looks maybe but I think she's too busy to do a series now. :wink:

Well, the people of Dorne are a darker skinned people--kind of like a mix of Spanish/Italian/Indian/Middle Eastern/Turkish. Whatever. :D They like hot food, hot weather and hot sex and not necessarily in that order. Actually, the Dornish are the most interesting people in the Game of Thrones. In my opinion. ;)

The big palace with the bronze domes is called Sunspear--its home to the Martell family who rule Dorne.

It's official! Emilia Clarke will play Sarah Connor in the Terminator reboot. Click the link for more info: http://imdb.to/IUFDiO

To people who have been living in a cave the past 3 years, Emilia is the pretty lady who plays Khaleesi Daenerys Targaryen, the lady with the beautiful silver hair and violet eyes.

I don't know if this is a Terminator remake(the original with Linda Hamilton) or a TV series. Sounds cool, though! Emilia will kick ass as Sarah! She will also be the prettiest one. :)

Another dreamcast. Truthfully, when I read the description of Genna in the books(full-figured, blonde, loud)my first thought was,"Dolly Parton!" lol But, I don't think they are hiring many USA actors, so I think Helen Mirren would be awesome in this role. And since Christine Baranski has said she'd like to be in GOT I think with her bubbly personality and blonde looks, Genna would be a fit.

Guess what President Obama's fav show is?
http://wet.pt/1d6pe32

Wonder whose side he is on? Probably Khaleesi/Dany because not only is she blonde and beautiful but she also freed the slaves. However, this little queen takes no prisoners and if anyone crosses her they usually meet some kind of hideous death...........Go, Khaleesi, go! A modern female in medieval times! :funhi:

My personal feelings are bittersweet because I do not have cable or satellite dish, so I have to wait for DVD next year and live vicariously through the experiences of ones who do get to watch! :D

Oh, speaking of DVD for season 3, it's out in just 4 more weeks! February 18th. Hubby keeps asking when, and I keep telling him so I finally wrote it on the calendar.

I'll continue to watch each episode the day after it airs in the US. :viking:

Because fuck you HBO (or any non-Finnish production company really) for not providing us foreigners with any (reasonably priced) ways to view your shows within, say, 24 hours after it's been made available to United Statians.

Well, I would call it blasphemy but, GRRMartin seemed to get a kick out of it and probably had to give his permission to do this thing. Seriously, I'm curious. The LOTR parody porn movie was actually funny, so was the Gilligan's Island one. So, I'd like to see it if nothing else out of curiosity. Some of the people actually resemble the real cast members such as the girl playing Margaery, and the couple playing Robb and Talisa. Some of them though look to be much older such as Cersei and Dany, and the lady playing Ygritte is a bit overweight, though the books actually didn't go into detail about her body size.
I don't know how some fans will react to this, hopefully with laughter which is what it is meant to be, but you know how it is, some want to kill others over spoilers, so I imagine those people might take this a little too seriously. A word of advice: don't. It is a parody and made in fun and, actually its a type of compliment to one of the best shows which has ever been on TV, and a wonderful book series. If GRRM seems to like it, then it must be cool! :D

lol Well, we did do that, watched the entire set! My husbands reaction to the Red Wedding:
"Oh, Shit!!!" "WTF!" "What an evil old man!"(Walder Frey) "Good Lord!" and other utterances............. :D

I have to say that the preformance by the guy playing Ramsay Snow knocked it out of the ballpark, as crazy as Ramsay is in the books, this actor aced it and made it even better!
Dany has became so powerful--she is not the shy, scared little girl of the first season. Matter of fact her aggressiveness has became almost scarey. She is a force to be reckoned with. A true leader, and Queen.
Tywin should be nicked, "Mr. Majestic", I mean it is obvious he more or less rules Westeros. But, I think Olenna Tyrell holds the hidden aces. :wink: I love that old lady! Very witty, and intelligent.
I missed the little spicy arguments Cersei and Tyrion had last season, though.

Well, more comments later.....

4.2 The Lion and the Rose
4.3 Breaker of Chains
4.4 Oathkeeper
4.5 First of His Name
4.6 The Laws of Gods and men
4.7 Mockingbird

And, allegedly:

This is going to be an awesome season. I am really looking forward to seeing it(and owning the DVD next year)! :bigok:
There have been RUMORS that GOT is going to run 7 seasons, then the finale(A Dream of Spring) would be a movie. Well, I have to say this may be the only way to go if they plan on doing just 7 seasons on TV because logically, it would take at least 8 TV seasons to finish the story satisfactory.
GRRM has not finished the last 2 books but he has said maybe The Winds of Winter would be published in mid-2015 in time for it to play maybe a season and a half. Its going to be a long book, probably the longest in the series. AFFC&ADWD would be combined, and unnecessary parts cut although the last 400 pages of ADWD are pretty vital to the story continuity. So, these 2 books would be probably one and a half seasons in length. that adds up to the 3 seasons after 4 for a total of 7. So, yes, a movie might be needed to have the finale which, I add would probably be a very profitable movie because fans would flock to see it. It sounds like they all have thought this out. Frankly, I am hoping still for 8 seasons with the finale on TV. Que sera sera, I guess.

Right, so apparently Jaime is a rapist now...
It pains me to say it, but this was probably the worst episode in the show's history.
