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 (fourteen years ago)

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 (fourteen years ago)

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.

Is Stannis like really rilly interested in talking about swivel chairs?

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

lololol that's because oh.

Well, yeah

What happened to Alan Rickman? I thought he was all super-rumored to be cast as Stannis. Or maybe that was another character?

She Got the Shakes, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 10:57 (fourteen years ago)

alan rickman was never in the conversation - you're probably just thinking of some fan speculation. he's got other shit to do, and besides that he's like 20 years older than mark addy (stannis' older brother on the show)

DEHUMANIZE YOURSELF AND FACE TO BLOODSHED (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:10 (fourteen years ago)

i don't really understand what it is with alan rickman and americans of a certain persuasion

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:15 (fourteen years ago)

he's so dark + moody!

Mordy, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:22 (fourteen years ago)

ha i was gonna say alan rick is too goth for game of thrones

max, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:24 (fourteen years ago)

maybe he could play a braavosi banker or something

max, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:25 (fourteen years ago)

has he ever been in anything actually good

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:28 (fourteen years ago)

yes.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:29 (fourteen years ago)

die hard

DEHUMANIZE YOURSELF AND FACE TO BLOODSHED (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:29 (fourteen years ago)

you feeb!

DEHUMANIZE YOURSELF AND FACE TO BLOODSHED (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:29 (fourteen years ago)

yes, but has he ever been in anything .. actually good

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:29 (fourteen years ago)

Quigley Down Under

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:29 (fourteen years ago)

Galaxy Quest

Number None, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:30 (fourteen years ago)

die hard is legit a really good movie. have you seen it man

DEHUMANIZE YOURSELF AND FACE TO BLOODSHED (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:30 (fourteen years ago)

he was the only good thing about the last HP movie. he has one line-reading in it that's so juicy you basically have to laugh

DEHUMANIZE YOURSELF AND FACE TO BLOODSHED (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:30 (fourteen years ago)

He was also in Smiley's People.

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:31 (fourteen years ago)

i've seen die hard but i was fourteen and it's all bound up with the sequels and the psone game for me, so maybe it is better than i am giving it credit for

i am entirely willing to believe that he is A Good Thing in the middle of harry potter eight or galaxy quest or whatever! that wasn't my question tho really

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:32 (fourteen years ago)

he was in rasputin: dark servant of destiny

max, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:32 (fourteen years ago)

galaxy quest 2nded

remy bean, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:33 (fourteen years ago)

lolol rasputin:

remy bean, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:34 (fourteen years ago)

yeah i admit outside of die hard i dont have much to say about his filmography. i havent seen ang lee's sense & sensibility, he's in that and it has a veneer of respectability

DEHUMANIZE YOURSELF AND FACE TO BLOODSHED (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:34 (fourteen years ago)

He would be a terrible Stannis tho. Quite apart from his age

Number None, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:35 (fourteen years ago)

he's more of a lannister senior type

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:37 (fourteen years ago)

i mean, he'd be okay as pretty much anyone in the books in the right age bracket except stannis tbh

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:37 (fourteen years ago)

yall pretending u dont luv harry potter is p cute

ice cr?m, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:42 (fourteen years ago)

walked past some americans in oxford the other day, in gryffindor scarves, complaining about how they didn't show some character repairing his wand, because it was An Important Moment. we need some kind of south africa style cultural embargo imo

thomp, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:50 (fourteen years ago)

Alan Rickman was also one of the few things that doesn't make me want to shoot myself when my wife wants to watch Love Actually for the 2.4 billionth time.

Also, I loved him as Metatron in Dogma.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:51 (fourteen years ago)

bill nighy vs. allan rickman

remy bean, Wednesday, 20 July 2011 12:52 (fourteen years ago)

Fair enough, as Bill Nighy helps save Love Actually a little too.
