Whilst listening to Storm of Swords I think I heard the most disturbing thing I have ever come across. Roy Dotrice graphically describing Tyrion's cock. Pretty sure "It was as ugly as the rest of him" would have sufficed?"

I thought it was a pretty appropriate depiction of the horror she was experiencing. But by the end of the chapter I mainly felt bad for Tyrion.

Tyrion and Davos will be simultaneously knocked unconscious and the entire event will be from Sansa's POV. Speaking of Sansa, I'm curious how they're gonna handle her and her tits in that one scene where Joffrey has one of the lame kingsguard strip her and beat her up in front of everyone. The actress is actually 15 or something

They probably just won't show her breasts and instead will have her in underclothing? You can see that scene in the teaser and that's basically what it looks like.

They've already slapped her and broken the skin, remember. That sounded dirtier than I intended, somehow.

Or do it from weird camera angles that suggest nudity but don't actually show any.

I'm sure Gurm lobbied heavily (ha!) for the "artistic nudity" angle.

Cannot wait for the bread riot scene, it is pivotal from both a narrative and thematic standpoint. I think the directors will play it up given the recent Occupy movement, almost giving it an Occupy King's Landing feel. Can't wait to see the resonance there as the smallfolk show their strength in numbers against those with wealth, such as Lady Lollys and the rest of the court. Though overused in today's lexicon, I feel the term "epic" would succinctly describe this moment in literary and television history.

Not a big fan of the series, but Blackwater, directed by Neil Marshall, should be amazing.

1) That owns, because Neil Marshall owns. 2) That's unfair : Neil Marshall could direct an elementary school nativity play, and it would be amazing.

The language was a strange dialect of his own and he read it as best as he could. "Fevra Dream," he whispered. "Hello?" came a nasally voice from behind.

The show writers probably shat water and blood when they realized how little they had in the way of interesting stuff for the show in DWD. Just a bunch of cuts to meanwhile at the Wall, meanwhile in Mereen, meanwhile on the way to Mereen, meanwhile in the North, meanwhile... FREY PIE, meanwhile in Mereen... Needed at least a Darkstar.

Wouldn't it be crazy if the series just diverged from the books at the end of the SoS arc and told a better story?

A... better story? Perhaps you should take some courses down at the Learning Annex, expand your horizons just a bit. A better story, my god. It's as if there is a tin of Alpo between your ears, where normal folk have a brain.

Doesn't Dany sack Yunkai in AFFC? That's the yellow city where they let her in, she buys the Unsullied, then lets Drogon melt that guys face as she orders the Unsullied to slaughter their old employers, right? Plus I'm sure there's more moments that'll make Feast a good season besides that one (borrowed the books when I read them, don't have it in front of me to think of any other ones). Can we talk about that preview chapter of Winds of Winter that GRRM posted on his website in this thread? Or is that something that needs to be put in spoilers?

Nope. That was SoS. Here's a good rule of thumb for pivotal story events: if it was either pivotal or a story event, it happened in the first three books
