I'm still working on my fantasy lit post (stupid grading keeps getting in the way, but in the meantime, I had to say something about this:

Personally I don’t think Momoa is that bad a choice. I always saw the Dothraki as being similar to the Mongol warriors of Genghis Khan’s day. Given that it’s unlikely we’ll find any Mongol actor to play the role then a Pacific Islander or a Maori (I think Momoa is a Maori, he said a version of the haka clinched the role for him) is a good option. If they’d cast the ‘net a little wider then Temeura Morrison (Jake the Mus in Once Were Warriors) or Jay La’gai’ai (sp?) would have been better (on reflection Morrison looks a little old now, but Jay is still young enough looking to do it). Anyway I think Momoa will give a credible performance, you guys deliberately selected the least of the Drogoish shots that have been circulating

I think Momoa actually looks the part, but I don't think he is a good actor at all.

Troy, the Scottish one

Does he really even have to "act" for this? All he has to do is look menacing, say "moon of my life", and plow some jailbait.

Also, be sure to catch the next episode of "Dirty Jobs" where Mike Rowe takes on the job of Dany's body double.
