"Ice" does't need to get mentioned every season, they can simply rentroduce it briefly as "Ned's Stark's sword". I don't think it'll get lost since it's actually meaningful for Jaime and Brienne's storyine, which revolves around oaths.


 Maybe my memory fails me, but I don't think Ice has been mentioned on the show at all. What bugs me more is that neither have Dany's dragons. Would it kill them to have Dany talk to Missandei and go: "Check out my Dragons! These are...."

I guess everyone has their pet peeves, heh.


Cogman has said the dragons do have names on set, I guess the timing just hasn't been right. I am pretty confident Dany will talk about them some point in the future, Dany and her dragons are very popular with the audience.

 But then again D & D have hardly paid any attention to Lightbringer with Stannis so I shouldn't be surprised.


 Actually Melisandre does mention Lightbringer in S2, doesn't she? Oh man, nevermind the swords, I just want them to namecheck Honor (Jaime's horse) on the show.

I am with Al here. I really hope they do the oathkeeper scene, because it says so much about the how Jaime feels and how his relationship with his father has changed, I think it'd be a beautiful scene and it'd be a pitty if it was left out. However, I got this feeling that they'll leave it out, since they've downplayed the importance of the family swords so far. I do hope I am wrong. I'd love to see that onscreen.

If that's where they are going to shoot the duel that's a really great spot, the cinematographer should be able to shoot some gorgeous scenes there.

I personally look forward...the show will be making changes for adaptation sake.
For season 5 and onward it seems wise to work around the source material issues.

Eitherway Locke at the wall is going to give us a lot of tasty scenes with Jon, Sam and perhaps Stannis/Melissandre.

 By that I mean that they will use characters like Tycho who doesn't appear till book 5 in season 4 of the show. I shouldve known as it was telegraphed a bit when Tyrion explained to Bronn last season how the crown was in debt with the bank. Clever!

Hmm is Tycho the one looking for Stannis in ADWD?

I still think Gatiss should be playing Mace Tyrell.

I don't think it was because he hated Bran. Bran sparred with Tommen.

My recollection is that he did because Robert (his father) said something to the effect that it would have been a mercy if he had died in the fall rather than live as a cripple. So in Joffrey's screwed up head that meant he should send an assassin... out of kindness.

And I don't know if they will... It was cool as a book reader to find that out... but I don't know if the TV only viewer even cares or has thought twice about it. So I can see it being cut out... even though I think it would be cool if it was kept... but it is a small detail.

 

Thanks DonalNoye for adding the spoiler... that makes sense.

You know what I'm wondering? If they'll ever reveal who sent that assassin after Bran in the show. Because they never mentioned that spar in the courtyard, and wasn't that the reason Joffrey hated Bran? My memory is a wee bit fuzzy, but would show-Joffrey even have a reason to go after Bran? Other than that he's a dick. Which, at this point in the show, is a bit stale.

 Hmm I think you're right. I forgot about his motivation, I remembered Bran sparred with Tommen, but I couldn't connect the dots back to Joffrey, so I just thought he took the fact that Tommen lost to Bran as a family offense or something. But yeah, what you're saying definitely rings a bell. Still don't know if this would work on the show, since it was hardly referenced after S1.

From WiC, new set pics. Click on SLJEDEĆA>> to view the entire slide. There's some...erm...interesting bits to see. And they all involve Missandei.

I've gotten to number 8, Macha, and I have the feeling that there is a theme that doesn't reveal more than just Missandei.  In costume (out of costume)

How do you pronounce Hizdahr zo Loraq anyway? For me, he was one of those characters whose name I never said out loud or in my head. Along with basically everybody else in Meereen.

I feel Gendry might strike out with Brienne and Pod on her search, I also agree Bronn coming along with be awesome. But in the books Bronn abandoned Tryion as his trail champion, he will do the same next season so the Red Viper will do his thing, but what will bring Bronn back?

I like the theories suggesting that Bronn is going to take the place by Jaime's side that Ilyn Payne had. It will be a much different experience of course, instead of silent mocking Jaime will be experiencing Bronn's acerbic wit.

Yep, this is what I thought so too. Sending Bronn with Tyrion will add nothing to his character or their storyline, plus with Jorah there later on, Bronn will have nothing to do.
I think he's definitely pairing up with Jaime, although they'd do well to explain why someone who just earned a knighthood and is doing quite well for himself would just follow Jaime around.
