So do we all. Hopefully the ratings stay strong or even improve (like True Blood's did) and the international sales/ratings remain strong.
Book 3 is likely to require an extra-large season or even two seasons by itself. Rumor has it that Martin (the author) has suggested that Book 3 be two seasons, and Books 4 and 5 together be three seasons (since HBO is already planning on "intermingling" the two books since they happen at the same time). Of course, this would also conveniently give Martin more time to finish the last two books...though I hope he's sincere when he says it was just one particular plot point that was giving him such a hard time with the latest book, and that with it finished the other two should be set-up to be easier for him to write...we'll see. |

That's cool the HBO has already greenlit GOT for a second season.
I have been waiting for next books to come out to but I guess I could wait a little longer now this show is on . Plus the occasional gratuitous nudity is always welcome.;)

It's funny because these are the kinds of things I gloss over in the books, but I'm sitting there watching the movie with my wife and she's like "what the heck are you reading?"

I am really hoping a series of action figures comes out of this, I would drive all over town to get a Thoros, or a Lem Lemoncloak with out a single complaint.

Yeah, I can see it now. GoT action figures with "realistic incest action"!

I...don't recall HBO doing much in the way of toy tie-ins. I suppose there's a slight chance that NECA or somebody like that might pick it up, but you'd likely only get "main" characters and particularly colorful types (Gregor Clegane, for example).
The chances of an action figure line reaching the point where you'd get Lem Lemoncloak or Thoros of Myr? Well...I wouldn't hold your breath. Maybe in the paint-your-own miniatures line, though. After all, this isn't a kid's show, so toys are likely the last thing on most folks' minds (including Martin). |
