A full-page ad, located in the Monday, February 25th edition of the New York Times, seems custom-designed to light up fantasy fans’ pleasure centers. The clever Game of Thrones ad features what looks unmistakably like the shadow of one of Khaleesi’s dragons, cast across a series of dummy articles, with headlines like “Lost Film Returns.”
Because George R R Martin doesn’t have anything else to occupy his time at the moment.
Game of Thrones Season 2: A Clash of Kings Blu-ray cover.
“What Martin had going for him when writing A Clash of Kings was a lifelong passion for medieval history and a decade or so spent living and breathing these characters. You can’t fake that. If Season 2 of Game of Thrones demonstrated anything, it’s that the show should stick as closely as possible to the source material, since every time the show deviates, the illusion that these characters and places are real begins to unravel…”

China Doll centers on a successful California construction subcontractor, his Asian American wife who is a university professor, and a robot as they straddle both sides of the Pacific with extended families on two continents. Despite the presence of a robot, “this is not a sci-fi show,” Scheffer said. “It is ambitious but is set in the present day.”

“This first round of casting clues for season two has been confirmed by George R. R. Martin to reveal Gwendoline Christie has been cast as Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones.”
“HBO’s Game of Thrones has made its first casting hire for season 2.
“Natalie Dormer, who memorably played the seductive and doomed Anne Boleyn on Showtime’s The Tudors, has been added to the fantasy drama’s regular cast.”
Lovely.
“The Wall. On the Northern border of the seven kingdoms stands The Wall. It’s 700 feet tall and 300 miles long, made up of ice and rock. It’s manned by the “brotherhood of the Night’s Watch,” a collection of lawless men. If you’re sent to The Wall, you will spend your life starring out into a big cold nothingness keeping watch for days, months or years.”
