So close, yet so far!

Tonight, HBO going to release the first 15 minutes of the first episode, can't wait.

Some reviews/impressions out, of the first episodes, all i've read is good things! Seems like HBO got a big thing in their hands, now let's hope people subscribe for HBO. Wish i could, will make my part buying it when releases on bluray/dvd :)

Just saw it, looks very top notch budget and not some low budget like Legend of the Seeker.
I will definitely follow this one, looked pretty cool.

So I have a question, is there any fantasy stuff in this like magic, monsters...etc.?
I dont know anything from this series.

Well this is HBO, they usually do top quality stuff, good budget (what might end up killing show, if not enough people watch it).

The magic is light in the books, as for monsters too. There's no orcs, elfs etc.
Main thing in this are the (great) characters, it feels like medieval Europe, lots of families fighting for a throne; lots of plots going at the same time.

Can't wait to see reactions of the show, from who didn't read the books, on stuff that happens.

So its not that much of a fantasy at all, kind of dissapointing, would be nice LOL

But anyways, I will check the first few episodes and see if I get drawned into it, so far it looks pretty interesting.

It's still an imaginary kingdom with thought up characters and events. Fantasy isn't about magic and goblins, it's about just that: fantasy.

It's more subdued, but there is magic stuff. I'd hate to ruin it if you want to read the books, so Magic, it seems, is tied to Dragons and there hadn't been any for a long time. In a later book, 3 dragons are born and magic is making a slow come back. It's not overt though. There are Trolls and wights, and some nasty undead creatures called the Others, or White Walkers.. So yeah, it's a grounded fantasy, but there is still some pretty fantastic stuff. The Unsullied(Unsoiled? can't quite recall) are cool, and there is a bit of Mysticism. Dire Wolves. It's original and feels extremely tangible as a believable world...

Do you mean its more like say, 300? like the dude with a mutant looking body shape or like the undead warrior stuff that had masks on?
If so, then nice, no problem there.

But from your explaination in the "spoiler" it doesnt seem that bad, light or not, I take it hehe.

This series is defined by it's twists. You never know who will die or live. It's not predictable at all...

Over a year waiting better be good. So lame i won't have a chance to watch this legally, wanted support it :(
AMC did rly nice, Walking dead aired in channel Fox here in Portugal (made some deal i guess), only few days after original debut in USA, wish HBO did same.

Does anyone know how long HBO usually takes to release Bluray/dvds? Hope doesn't take long.

Americans better watch this! Hope it's big success, and see tomorrow news for a season 2 greenlight. :D Will be watching episode tomorrow *cough* harrrr :P

Indeed. Loved it.

Plenty of characters were introduced, and it's impossible to get to know in only one episode, hope people tune in for more, as it gets so good.

Arya, Tyrion, Dany(:O) are so perfect :), most of the cast infact is great.

And oh good news:
Following strong critical and viewer response to the series’ April 17 debut, HBO has renewed GAME OF THRONES for a second season, it was announced today by Michael Lombardo, president, HBO Programming.

The gross audience for the premiere night of GAME OF THRONES on the main HBO channel was 4.2 million viewers.
Quite good numbers, didn't touch Boardwalk, but GOT didn't have ads during ture blood, wich helped boardwalk.

And hurrah! Season 2! Can't wait to see Stannis, Brienne (lol) etc. Man if this gets to season 3, so much epicness to witness on TV.

This.

I'm not familiar with the book(s), so it wasn't totally clear who everyone was in relation to everyone else. I'll definitely keep watching though as the overall quality was top notch...and that Emilia Clarke is damn fine.

dat ass.

Yeah i imagine it might be too many characters, for who didn't read the books, just need time, to let them grow. As someone who readed the books, it's so cool see them become alive.

Really liking Viserys more than i was expecting, and i already hate Joffrey, that fucker :D

Here's a cool picture, showing the houses, who's connected to who. Some characters still didn't appear too. http://cdn.screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/Game-...

And HBO got viewers guide here too: http://viewers-guide.hbo.com/game-of-thrones/

Shows all map, with extra info, all houses families line. Cool site.

Can't wait for next week.
