The Official *SPOILERS* Thread for Game of Thrones

[JamesI]

So, Margaery Tyrell has been cast...

I don't know her, but based on the picture she seems a bit old for the role. I assumed someone a bit younger I guess.

There's talk that Christopher Eccleston (of Dr. Who fame) could play Stannis Baratheon.

Working my way through Feast of Crows now (about 300 pages into it). Want to finish so I can go back and read this whole thread and not just bits and pieces. Definitely takes a while to get going, although after all the poo that hit the fan in Storm of Swords I expected that.

One other thing I forgot to mention earlier from A Storm of Swords was the trial by combat between the Mountain and the Viper. That was awesome!

[ChaosLex]

A couple predictions...

Stannis will kill Melisandre and/or Ser Davos will kill Stannis. I'm calling this one now.

Jaime Lannister and Jorah Mormont will join the Night's Watch under Jon Snow's command. This will really "endear" him to Daeny when she finally travles to the mainland. Haha.

I'm not sure if I am jealous or annoyed that a friend of mine already has a copy of Dance with Dragons.

[ChaosLex]

I'm going to make a separate *SPOILERS* thread for A Dance with Dragons under the "Book and Writers Club" tab. Drop by if you want to hear some "spoilers."

[JamesI]

I really don't like some of the spoilers I'm hearing. Ugh.

I know this is a SPOILERS thread, but I also know that most of you have already read the books. You can't really say the same about an upcoming title...

Anyway, PM me for details if you're interested.

Most of the ones I've heard were ok. 1 really annoyed me.

Brienne cast.

Brienne cast.

Asha too, from what I've heard.

Asha too, from what I've heard.

There are strong rumors there, but unconfimered.

Also Asha is likely to be renamed to Yara or something like that since Asha is too similar to Arya and Osha. I think we could tell them all apart anyway, but oh well.

Happened with Robert the runt. Changed him to Robin. So HBO is trying to make things less confusing. Like that will work.

[DuffMan]

Well I finally wrapped up A Feast for Crows just in time, some interesting stuff in there but definitely my least favorite of the books. Glad that I don't have to wait for Dance With Dragons.

BTW, a couple of the actors from the recently defunct Camelot (on STARZ) were cast in roles for next season.

IGN was saying they wouldn't mind seeing Eva Green play Melissandre but I hope that's not the case. That character would be way too similar to the role she just played on Camelot.
