I know the ASOIAF universe pretty well. I posted a pic a few pages back in spoilers but no one recognized it I think.
Here it is

Anybody know this event?

I didn't realize your first posting of the pic was a question

Figured it was pretty obvious from the context of the discussion and the posting of the song...along with the banners in the background.

 

[Blackfyre]



Yes, and Rhaegar had an affair of some sort with Lyanna Stark, which is what started the war that ended the Targaeryan dynasty, and also

Spoiler

resulted in Jon Snow's birth, if the fan speculation is to be believed

It is known.

The Blackfyres are the Targaeryan bastards who led a couple of rebellions trying to gain the throne.
I've definitely noticed there is a lot of variation between how closely people read. Those people on the wiki are extremely close readers, all of whom must have read the books three or four times a piece. My neighbor, on the other hand, read all of the books but can't remember the names of some pretty major characters and big events. He always brags about how fast he reads, though, so I think he was just skimming the books for some reason.

These things are good to know

Spoiler

It's Cat. In the books she and Ned are much younger than they are on the show -- like mid 30s.

Do you know the two men holding the swords?

 

[Ataturk]

Spoiler

The guy on the left is Roose Bolton (the pink gives it away). I have no idea who the other is supposed to be.

 

[Blackfyre]

You might wanna spoiler that

 

[Kajak]

I assumed that anyone who had recently read ASOIAF would recognize Blackfyre as the Targaryen bastard name. Anyways.

I'm surprised about the barium, it almost felt like a post production filter being applied but that's so cool.

speaking of Jon Snow:

Finally watched Sunday's episode. I'd have to say it's my favorite ep so far this season.

Some insight on the nudity and lack of chain in GoT http://winteriscoming.net/2012/06/b...on-nudity-and-creating-the-battle/#more-18317

 

[indesertum]

they should've done the one boob dress

the one time where gratuitous nudity would have been justified...

 

[Reggs]



It is known.

I find myself saying this in real life more often than I would like to admit.

Bingo. Did the banners give it away?

That, and its one of the few battle scenes taking place inside.

Finally managed to watch the last episode. Good to see clegane take sansa with her. As soon as he saw the wildfire, it was obvious he didn´t wanna be there.
I suppose Tyrion will only have a big scar instead of half of his nose being chopped off. Though it seemes as it his nose could fall off at any moment.

While waiting for the last ep. I found this. Think there are some very vague "name-drop spoilers" in there, so if you're sensitive, stay clear.

Way better than I would've guessed.
