Haven't watched it yet but omg no Varys and Petyr are like the best. So catty! Such assholes! So many strangely placed ys in their names! I <3 book Varys though. And I was surprised by how hot-yet-also-close-to-my-mental-image Petyr was. Confusing!
READ THEM YESSSSS READ THEM ALLLLLLL BOOK FIVE COMES OUT SOON YAY
Maybe it's just my initial impression of book Varys that's throwing me off, his description is just so subtly unpleasant, especially with the sickly perfumes and such. IDK. Oh man though aside from Aidan Gillen being kind of too tall as Petyr, his face is perfect with that fucking constant smug smirk. I BOTH HATE AND LOVE HIM.
I knoooooow, the next book is almost here! But then what will it be, like five years till the one after that? :| Reading Book 1 i'm like "hahahaha OH this came out in 1996. shiiiiiiiit"
I read the books a while ago (well, the first two and a half: I stopped mid-way through book three when I found out books 4-6 [now -7] weren't out yet *g*) so I knew what was coming a lot...but only in vague outlines, not a lot of specific details. I've decided I'm going to reread each book after the season it translates to...at least for books 1-2. I haven't decided yet if I want to be completely caught by surprise by the show so I may keep going after that. *g*
And I need an icon of Dany with her dragon (just the one on her shoulder, no boobage, please ;-) ) like RIGHT NOW.
Yeah i think it's a lot better to have some distance between the time you read something and the time you watch it so you've forgotten the details and you're not so nitpicky. But IDK, usually it's an easy choice between book/movie versions of things because one tends to be significantly better than the other and you want the better one to be the one you're most familiar with. But with this show they're almost equally good and i can't deciiiide which way to experience it ~first~
Oh my, i haven't made icons in forever, but i have been getting pretty screencap happy with this SO MAYBE.
That was not a request, btw, just a declaration of general WANT. ;-) Just in case it wasn't clear.
I'm about a third of the way into the first book for the second time now and I, um, may not be able to keep my resolve to wait until after S2 to re-read book 2, because I'm just as engrossed as I was the first time except with a dash of impatience to get to the stuff the show *didn't* recently refresh my memory on. *facepalm*
Marina, literally the only reason I come back to livejournal (this is apio/reen) is to read your blog and like, I JUST CAN'T, I WANT TO QUOTE EVERYTHING YOU SAY:
I'm honestly not sure which Stark i'd rather see brutally murder him.
So she's like Mulan now?!??!!!!?!??!?!!!!!!! And with Robert's bastard son, oh shit! Secret noble kids aw man.
CAN'T THEY AT LEAST HAVE A NICE FAMILY BBQ ONCE A YEAR, COME ON
Ugh, you are like, easily the most insightful/accurate/hilarious commentator in existence. That includes your replies and your tags on tumblr, I SEE YOU HIDING YOUR CLEVERNESS IN TAGS, you're not fooling anyone. SAY MORE THINGS MARINA SAY ALL THE THINGS.
REEEEEEEEEEN! I've been meaning to ask you what your LJ is/if you still use it and i guess this is my answer! I wish you posted over here because i hate tumblr's limited reply capabilities. :(
Anyway SHUT UP WITH YOUR FLATTERY. I don't understand how anybody tolerates my dweeby word vomit. I USE CAPSLOCK AS A STAND-IN FOR ACTUAL HUMOR, I KNOW HOW THE INTERNET WORKS!!!
You make me smile though. :} creepy bracket emoticon smiles, even.
