HBO adaptation of Game of Thrones - will this be just for nerds? (NO SPOILERS PLEASE)

I CAN'T READ! there. i said it. i hope your'e happy.

TBH the road ahead exists less and less for book people, too, as the show increasingly goes its own route. But I will police myself carefully.

no, sorry, i will post in any thread i want

contenderizers secret shame

and guess what, you cant do anything about it, because if you keep whining i will start posting tons of spoilers

yeah just like... before posting in this thread ask yourself "could i have written this post if the books didn't exist?" and if the answer is no, go post it in the other thread

Nobody has spoiled anything at all about Bran. We're all cool guys, let's put away these spoiler threats. We're all a bunch of Fonzies.

i'm actually dyslexic so reading can be ridiculously difficult at times and time consuming. i work a fuck load and already have two books on the go (one has taken me a year and a half to get to the point of being almost done). so when i read sentiments like "JUST READ THE FUCKING BOOKS" it seriously makes me want to hulk out and smash the shit out of some assholes smug fuck face.

don't say that thermo he will ruin it for us just for shits and giggles.

yo everyone was cool in this thread till contenderizer started complaining, dont blame me

also if i wasnt here youd all still be spelling rickon wrong so

can you just email the spoilers directly to contenderizer then pretty please

I am in the limbo-like position of having read far beyond the show, but not yet up to the current end of the books, so where am I supposed to meet my posting needs huh?

i think it's a reasonable request (not that book people have to go away, just that it'd be nice if they followed ciderpress' advice). and there's no reason for anyone to get huffy about it.

i apologize for fantasizing about a world without book people

i just feel sorry for you if you think "lancel's kablooie" is actually something that might happen in this series

it's too late. i've turned green and torn all my cloths off.

xpost (fun with dyslexia - i brutally misread "a world without book people" at first"!)

i just feel sorry for you if you think "lancel's kablooie" is actually something that might happen in this series

well, ILX people often have comical ways of referring to things. you never know.

once i posted on this thread that everyone you like will probably die and ppl rended garments and wept in the streets

max: stop threatening
contenderizer: stop worrying
GRR Martin: stop adding letters to normal names because nobody's buying Robb's full name is Robbert.

it's just robb iirc

It's actually Robbeerrtt and don't make fun of the Dutch language it's older than English

spoiler!

why do they call him ned, his name isn't neddard

there's no reason for anyone to get huffy about it.

It's a perfectly reasonable request, I was just being fake huffy.

Brief rebellious period where he grew a soul patch and asked his girlfriends to call him Bobb

Ooooo deary me,
My little brother's in his bedroom smoking weed

why do u all care abt spoilers so much they've been scientifically proven to not matter, and like obvs bran isnt dead duh

I didn't see Ned's death coming, and I was kind of blown away by it. That wouldn't have happened if someone had spoiled it. You know?

sure but no one is spolierizing anything big like that its just like so and so is maybe alive at some point in the future

it kinda sucks the danger out of it if you know a dude is still around in book 4

think abt this the books havent even been completed yet... no one knows

some people knew renly was about to die, whereas I only suspected it. but I'm glad I didn't know how he died, or when.

that guy was just not hardcore enough for the GOT life

I was really shocked by that because they seemed to go to pains in the previous ep to set up the the triangle with him, Margery, and the squire/brother guy.

yeah it was a nice twist for sure

when Ned died people on here were saying that it was nothing and that this series goes like NEXT LEVEL BONKERS AWESOME in books 2 and 3 so now I want to experience that fresh.

woah

It's so hard not to mercy-spoil when she's like (e.g. most recent ep) 'NO IS JON SNOW GONNA DIE?' 'DID HE KILL BRAN?'

The best response I've seen is to say, "Anybody can be killed," ideally while staring into the questioner's soul.
