@BlackAsSnow: Without spoiling too much, the battle in the book is a lot more extensive, something on the same scale of the Lord Of The Rings. You should have a lot of fun reading that part in the book, the best part of book 2 for me.

 Si, es la verdad.  It still seemed as if Cersei was behind a lot of the battle preparations on the HBO version, at least eluded to it, and in the book she's not.

I really, really really hope that they will add a scene where Tywin slaps Joffrey.
I would just jump for joy.

But oh man...just wishful thinking here.

 Lyanna, I didn't see it that way at all.  I thought Cersei and Joffrey were making some effort but had no clue what they were doing.  (Which surprised me -- Cersei should be smarter than that.)  I thought it was clear before the battle that Joffrey, and therefore Cersei, had no plan.  I wondered why they didn't notice and act on Tyrion interference with their wildfire procurement.  Wouldn't they at least have given orders to move the wildfire at some point, to discover Tyrion had taken over?  In any case, it looked to me like Tyrion was the only one with a real plan, and I didn't know why others did not contribute more to the planning and leading various portions of whatever the plan was going to be.

It sounds like reading about the battle of Blackwater will be most enjoyable.

A woman would like to see some skirmishes in S3, not full-fledged battles but more hints of battle since the war continues. It will also be interesting that "Winter is Coming" at the same time that Spring is really coming in the USA. Odd, no?

I know there are budgetary issues to consider, but a few skirmishes or brief scenes of larger battles would be most welcome. Other than Blackwater, season 2 only talked about battles, but didn't show anything but their aftermath.

It's was done that way because 90% of the budget went into Blackwater. Depending on how and where they split the next two seasons they might just be able to do that.

We should add that to the drinking game!  ANYONE slaps Joffrey: two shots and jump for joy.  That boy doesn't get slapped anywhere near enough.  Let's hope for lots of that next season.  Actually, I hope they just kill him.  Death by slapping wouldn't be a bad thing...

Years ago there was this game where you could beat up either George Bush or Osama Bin Laden, really wish they would make a GOT version, with Joffrey on one side and Linda on the other! Teeheehee!

Okay, let's not. I can think of plenty of other people as alternates in the slapping game. Theon would be a good candidate. It seems that some wouldn't mind throwing Ros in there as well.

A woman agrees with you, there could have been at least HINTS of skirmishes since this is supposed to be wartime and usually that means battle after battle after skirmish until a victory is at hand. Even that scene with King Robb waiting on the horses, then Grey Wind attacking the Lannisters, then seeing the aftermath of that battle was very effective without going overboard showing the entire fight. There are numerous ways to indicate that battles are still going on, so it will be interesting if they move the focus to the war activities more than to the behind the scenes plotting for S3. If you count Mance Raydar, they still have 5 kings so there has to be more battle activity.

Five? They're going to have to kill some kings this season! Preferably starting with Joffrey. That would be a terrific first episode if someone sliced off his head. Someone could whack Balon Greyjoy too. He looks so miserable sitting in his damp, crumbling tower, going on about the "iron price." Then his daughter (Yara?) could take up where he left off, so we could have a second woman clamoring for the throne.

Though a woman has read the books, it's so cool to know that they may change a few things around a little and that there will still be surprises even for the book readers.You never know what D&D have in mind for us!

 I saw an interview with D&D where they said they were doing the HBO series on the ASOIAF series, and not necessarily book by book.  So, it seems they are looking down the road to determine what can be kept, what is left out and what is going to be added later, i.e. Reeds, Rheagar, etc.

It's nice to think I'm not the only one here who will be in for some surprises. Of course, we're likely to be surprised by different things, but at least we'll all be in the same boat.

There are a few scenes with my favorite characters from the books I'd like to see, but otherwise a woman is really hoping to be surprised a few times this season. The dragon-napping in S2 was new and surprising, and it actually made a lot of sense in the context of getting Dany to the HOTU, so maybe there will be some surprises in S3 as well.

 In a way I'm kind of glad they're rewriting much of Dany's story. I found it very tedious at times in the books and it keeps things new and fresh for me on TV.

 I echo your sentiments, Ser Cary.  I glossed over several of her pages because it was just lagging.  I understand GRRM's detailing is for a purpose, but I don't see HBO taking that route.

A woman was thinking perhaps we should take bets as to which episode Dany's new friend Daario Naharis will appear for the first time?

Hmmm, I'm thinking the second half of the season, but I'll throw in a number once we get the titles for the episodes.

 I don't know who he is, but I'll go with Episode 6.  That seems like a good time to introduce yet another new character.

Yes, we have little enough information on S3 to make a guess, but since it's just a guess a woman will guess episode 3. She needs more numbers in her support system and should waste no time in getting that help IMO.

 Shireen IS blonde...............Fact. I was on set with her in the Dragonstone dungeon. It did not cross my mind at the time about the Baratheon seed thing, ( part time geek..confuse).  Well spotted Tir, that is sure to bug a lot of peeps.
