I picked up A Game of Thrones at the store this weekend, btws. I’ll do my best to finish by April. I’m preparing to let you all tell me, “I told you so.”
Finally a first video about this series that I can watch without being blocked by some regional crap!
An introduction about the different Kingdoms/places which looks very atmospheric:

At the end, this was shot near the Azure Window on Gozo (Malta):
I remember that scenery from my visit there last September.
Was that Sarah Connor (aka. Lena Heady) in one of the scenes?!
Yup. She plays Cersei Lannister, a rather nasty piece of work.
According to Martin’s blog, HBO has announced a 15 minute preview of the show Sunday April 3 at 9pm!
I can not tell you guys how excited I am for this. I just hope I don’t psyche myself up too much!
Also! The next book has a hard publish date of July 12! Martin says this is true for the UK as wel, despite what Amazon UK says!
WOO HOO!!!
There’s a promo website up called The Maester’s Path.
If you solve the puzzles, you’re rewarded with some advanced scenes. Someone put up the one from the first puzzle on youtube (technically a spoiler, but a really minor one.)
Lots of shirts available at HBO’s website. They’re a good $5 too expensive, even for “official” shirts, but they do have several major houses available, and that’s awesome.
New feature about the House of Stark: http://www.hbo.com/video/video.html/?autoplay=true&vid=1165247&filter=game-of-thrones&view=null
and a preview (the second video, since there is no direct video link: http://www.spoilertv.com/2011/03/game-of-thrones-new-teaser-featurette.html
Nice.
In that second one, did we get a glimpse of a Wight without blue eyes?
Two more preview vids from The Maester’s Path. (Not really spoilery)

And the third
I can’t wait for this show…
having just finished the first novel, I am now in agreement. It was quite excellent reading! However, now I have to be bummed out again that I don’t have HBO. Is there a DVD release date yet??
Not that I’ve seen.
Found a hole lotta more.
