All you Game of Thrones fan may enjoy this new TV series as well called Black Sails http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pvxpv_fycl8

Been trying to get into this because I dig the whole pirates and rogues scene. It's alright so far but hasn't caught my undivided attention just yet. Gonna keep watching it and see.

In other TV news.. Walking Dead is back for second half of season 4... and it doesn't suck! My personal opinion is that season 3 and first half of 4 were pretty boring.

Another new show that I'm starting to get into is True Detective on HBO. Last night's episode was great. I suspect it's starting to suck me in. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The comments on the trailer are funny. People on the internet are such raging assholes. So glad I've read the books!

Just seems odd to have a single walker there in a shot like that. I know they never really describe Cold Hand's face in the books (at least that I remember), but I wouldn't be shocked if they changed Elk --> Horse for reasons of not wanting to CGI the damn thing he's riding.

i actually wont link friends to youtube GoT stuff unless theyve read the books for that reason.

as far as the elk>horse, fine. but the fucking cloak? they need a way to show hes different than the other walkers as well as hinting at him being a former watch member.

theyre cutting strong belwas, i pray to the old gods and the new gods that they dont take away coldhands

That Cold Hands at the end of the trailer? A man must wonder.

i dont think so. Coldhands is surrounded by ravens, rides a giant elk, and wears a black cloak like the old nights watch use to wear.

but who knows, im gonna go crazy if they cut Coldhands out of the show

So this is topic is haunting me because I can't read it. I'm only on book two. All I want to do is come in here and have all the secrets of the universe unveiled, but alas, I must show restraint. ASOIAF deserves that much.

This series has secrets within its secrets. Sometimes I feel like none of us will ever be able to know everything. Lol

its much more rewarding not to have it spoiled for you. guessing whats to come next, going over theories in your head just to have GRRM shit all over them. keep reading. try to finish book 3 before the series. Book 3 is the best, the RW is only about halfway into book3.

I agree. I had the whole Ned Stark thing spoiled for me in season one (tv show) because of poorly marked spoilers. When the episode came, it was still [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] but lacked the surprise.

I've watched through season 3, I'm just trying to catch up in the novels because of how much more expansive they are. Lesser characters have much clearer histories/motivations etc.

One thing is for sure, as addicted as I've been to EQ since I was 14 years old in 2000 is how addicted I am to this damn story. It's absolutely geek heaven.
