Oooo Rory DOES look like he's lost some weight! And, he looks a bit scruffier. ;)

Now, if he could just tightened his arm around the little brat's neck...

[alexandral]

I kind of like how he is all protective of Joffrey. I know the boy is evil reincarnate, but still??? Rory is hot.

I actually rather like that crown, but I had no idea who was wearing it. Didn't recognise him at all.

I got a brief glimpse of Dany/Jorah so I'm happy.

[alexandral]

The crown: I think for me it is the Abundance of Horns (I am going to call this the Crown of Horns) and the similarity with Prince John. I can't unsee what I see, sorry. And this is just as they made Renly look so much better with the beard and the longer hair!

I was going to edit my post just this minute - Jorah was looming behind Dany in such an attractive manner, don't you think?

[shapinglight]

Jorah was looming behind Dany in such an attractive manner, don't you think?

Ahem! Yes. :fans self:

[alexandral]

He is still wearing the same yellow shirt!

[stoopid_silly]

I thought Renly looked awesome and hot and amazing with his new hairdo and badass crown!! but that robin hood comparison is pretty hilarious!

i'm a little worried about the jeyne thing too. mostly because they wouldn't confirm she was jeyne westerling and so it seems like they might be making up some other story for her? we shall seeee. but the trailer looks amaaaazing. it's so exciting to see all the new characters, eee!!

[alexandral]

But!!! THE HORNS? I thought English was similar to Russian here and having horns means.. you know.. something?

Oh yes, that was set me worried - Jeyne doesn't even seem to be the same person? I actually liked the character in the books, we didn't see much of her at first, but later she was so heart-broken at Robb's death and I always thought she was going to be one of the characters that Martin will expand in later books, like the other Jeyne, Jeyne Poole. Sorry. i said I am not going to worry!

[stoopid_silly]

what's wrong with them, do you think they should be bigger? he has an antler crown in the books i think, right?

yeah i definitely think jeyne has a bigger role to play later on. hopefully they won't make too major changes for her.

[alexandral]

I don't know.. I guess I just never imagined a crown with horns? Oh, the power of TV. Again - I am sorry for ruining the glee!

Hopefully so! I will not worry. STANNIS AND DAVOS AND MELISANDRE.

Sandor!! He does look v.v. hot.

[alexandral]

And this is my favourite scene of his! I hope Stranger-the-horse won't be cut out off the show. I want to have that scene where Sandor is worried about his horse.

[lydzi]

*still squeeeeeing* For real, it's a neverending excitment imo! ^^

Ok you posted a screencap of Fabulous Prince Jean I... you're officially the coolest person ever!

[alexandral]

I must have watched too many Disney movies in my career as mother, but Prince John was the first thing I thought of when I first beheld Renly in his crown.

Yes, they must have made Rory do some physical training which has worked well. VERY WELL. I like his look so much that I am afraid I won't even be shipping him with anyone this season, I will want him all for MEEEEEEEE.
