Trivia
The Iron Throne has been greatly redesigned from Game of Thrones (2011). It is larger and more asymmetrical to more closely match the description in George R.R. Martin's novels, although it is still nowhere near that big: the throne in the books is a 40-foot, immovable, asymmetrical behemoth made from 1000 swords welded together, with the seat 20 feet above the ground, and only accessible by a flight of stairs; the person sitting on it addresses people down below from 40 feet away.

Crazy credits
The first season's title sequence is centered on a model of the Old Valyria citadel, with blood trails running across the land and marked by symbols of the Targeryn family.

Changed my rating from 9 to 6

Season 1 was awesome. I was still defending the show untill this episode 6 of season 2. Enough is enough, the writers have no new ideas anymore, they don't follow the book and now this season is just super boring episode after episode. It's a Mexican soap opera now. I find it disgraceful. And it kinda is a bait and switch as well. They baited us with a very good season 1 just so they now use season 2 to push all their propaganda and personal beliefs. Is it so hard to follow the original story from the book?

The western world is having a really big writers Crisis in the entertainment industry.

Anyway, I might still keep watching this, but not with the same excitement as before. Might put it on just as background noise and go check it out when I hear a dragon. A shame.
