wow Modern Family is the new juggernaut, huh

also ppl should not be rewarding Melissa McCarthy's hilarious "Bridesmaids" role by nominating her terrible, terrible sitcom

Isn't the entire premise of Mike & Molly "LOL, fat people"?

online pinata store (Nicole), Thursday, 14 July 2011 13:47 (twelve years ago) link

from what I could tell, yes; I only made it through 10 minutes

Maybe I am being unfair because I've only seen the promos for it, but that's what it seemed like.

Melisandre will be payed by Carice Van Outen and Stannis will be played by Stephen Dillane.

"Carice Anouk van Houten is a Dutch stage and film actress. She won four Golden Calves for her roles in Suzy Q (1999), Undercover Kitty (2001)..."

lol

have they cast Davos yet? he seems like the best candidate for a "bigger" name actor out of the new main characters

ciderpress, Tuesday, 19 July 2011 19:40 (twelve years ago) link

he's going to die isn't he?

i don't think i spoiled anything by simply naming a new character?! we've been talking about season 2 casting for the last 10000 posts

ciderpress, Tuesday, 19 July 2011 19:48 (twelve years ago) link

not saying anyone spoiled anything! just, you know, be mindful of stuff

g++ (gbx), Tuesday, 19 July 2011 19:49 (twelve years ago) link

Aerosol, Tuesday, 19 July 2011 19:52 (twelve years ago) link

i like them movin pictures

Aerosol, Tuesday, 19 July 2011 19:53 (twelve years ago) link

was that directed at me? i haven't read anything either! i just assumed a big name would be more prone to getting killed.
i'm pretty much expecting minor spoilage on this thread at this point. and with my memory i'm going to have forgotten anything said here by 2016 when season 2 comes out.

xposts books make my head hurt

They're making my WRISTS HURT right now, because I'm re-reading this damn series on the subway.

hardcover?!

This series has made me so glad I bought a Nook.

Well, I had Books 2 & 3 in paperback, but I'm afeared my copy of Book 4 is HC.

if a film ever gets made of The Wasp Factory the kid that plays Joffrey needs to be cast as Frank.

these new castings are cool. stannis guy is great. melisandre would ideally have been a little older maybe.

Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 02:01 (twelve years ago) link

i am obv talking purely about physical appearance. i have no idea if these folx can act worth shit.

Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 02:01 (twelve years ago) link

carice van houten can act her ass off. she was great in the mega underrated Black Book

Just want to reiterate what I said earlier about Dillane in John Adams. Totally awesome.

Gukbe, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 03:17 (twelve years ago) link
