God damn... I am so hyped for this... I can't wait!!! :ahh:

all these pics and pictures of these charcters mean absolutely nothing unless you read the books

all i see is a bunh of people i dont know

When does the new season start??

This !! is taking so long,it's almost off my radar.

Dope. I'm glad they showed Roy Dotrice some love. he's does the audiobooks for book 1, 2, 3 and 5.

and Liam Cunningham is PERFECT for Davos Seaworth... that is a FANTASTIC choice.

April 1st

Never read the books but watched the 1st season religiously, !! is crack.

Lots of !!s too

I think I got spoiled for season 2

Spoilers?
Does Robb die at his wedding?

Just answer yes or no please I don't want any more details.

Don't go to imdb bunch of wimpgets.

No he doesn't

I don't care bout these randoms, where's the nak3d !! wit dragons hanging off her !!s

yes, he does.

Robb doesn't even get married in the 2nd book...I'm like 15% into the 3rd book and he still has yet to marry, so my answer is no.

didn't say 2nd book, he said second season.

Well since I've already read who will be in the final shot of season 2, it sounds right on par with book 2. So unless they somehow manage to jump really far ahead while still keeping everything else in the 2nd book on track, I'd say you haven't been spoiled. Guess you never know though
