The chinese photoshop with the same quality of work as their other manufactured products.
I hope someone is actually making these and selling them for cheap. I could scratch so many people off my Christmas shopping list who wouldn't even realize I just bought them a doorstop for a Christmas present.

I think it looks really lame. But there are lot of doorstops on the market that have a lot of work in them.

This was cheaper than the other sculpted ones I have seen.
Definitely fits the bill - thanks. Now I'm kind of amazed at how many of these things there are out there.

first four seasons are gold, everything else is me slowly coming to grips that once I loved is not what it used to be.

let's put it this way lach, there comes a time(s) in a man's life when entertainment (distractions) encourage him to keep living, to see the end of it all. and well, this series has been going on since 1996. so, don't get started is my advice. but also the books are great, but they will never be finished. wasabi says I'm a pessimist, I say I'm a realist. old fat man gurm doesn't know what to do, he's done put so many gatdanged plotpoints in there he don't know how to fish em all out. speaking of which, let's go fishing one day.

Its definitely watchable and overall highly entertaining. Like anything else, it's not perfect,but it does far more things right than wrong. It has a few mediocre seasons, but if you're catching up, you can zip through them.

Martin doesn't look to be in the greatest of health. Im worried it's going to be another wheel of time all over again. Hopefully they get Sanderson to wrap up GOT as well.
Also, Sandersons Stormlight archive is better than GOT.

agreed.
wooo, them fighting words, greedo, lol. never heard of the stormlight archive. now you got me interested. might five it a go once i've gotten through the songs of fire an ice which i recently just started reading.
My brother would love the show but hasn't started it yet, so I told him to just wait to watch everything after it's all over. That way he's not invested during the long wait ahead. The only problem, of course, it the possibility of spoilers, but he might not even have enough context for the spoilers to actually spoil anything.

GRRM is very protective of his world, I wouldn't be surprised if he explicitly states in his will that no one can finish his story.

By what I understand, not at all, they've completely broken off (or, mostly broken off). With that said, I haven't read the books so someone who has can probably chime in on this one. HBO can't make the show for the next 10 years, nor do they want to put the current cash cow on ice until the next book does/does not come out.

i guess that's a good thing, because i just started reading the books recently and so far the story is almost a carbon copy of the tv series.
