Winter is Coming

Not seriously...

Today, we speak of Game of Thrones.
George R.R. Martin's masterpiece of a series has been made into a television show, and is now part-way through season two.
Of course though, it is an HBO Series
For all of you fools out there who are unfamiliar with the works of HBO, the majority of them tend to show a lot of... well... boobs. Oh, and sex scenes, but boobs are way more common.

I have fallen in love with their choice of actors!
I mean who better to play Lord Eddard Stark, than Sean Bean?












He looks exactly the same as he did when he played Boromir, except aged a bit with a fluffier cloak.


 Joffrey, son of King Robert Baratheon  is so well done as well. Absolutely amazing, and such a brilliant actor... if I ever met Jack Gleeson (who plays Joffrey), I would probably not hesitate to punch him in the face.
He plays the child who is given way to much power, and is quite the little asshole at that!
Peter Dinklage plays the part of Tyrion Lannister (aka. The Imp). He is one of my absolute favourite characters, and Dinklage plays the part perfectly!
Uncle of Joffrey, he is a powerful speaker, and an intelligent man who stands apart from the rest of his nut-job, incest-filled family.

 Okay, so enough about the actors. To sum it up, all of the actors are freaking amazing.



I find the way to describe this show is quite simple... and is usually to be taken in a joking manner.
It came up in a conversation with my father. Due to all the nudity (mostly boobs), and semi-graphic sexual scenes, we have dubbed it "soft core porn... with a really, really good story line."
One scene,we also decided, may have been directed by a really hormonal teenage boy.
It was during a monologue by the character Petyr Baelish (played by Aidan Gillen),
someone decided that the best possible thing to be going on in the room, and the main focus (besides his voice of course), was a lesbian sex scene. It was two prostitutes going at it in the brothel (which owned by Baelish).


I'm sure some might take offense to this, and not want to watch it, but I swear, it is one of the best shows ever made.
However if you would prefer not to see constant boobs on the screen, I highly recommend reading the books instead.
It is honestly one of the best series I have come across.
