Apologies if it has been discussed already, I just found this incredibly interesting. http://www.vulture.com/2015/02/game-of-thrones-george-rr-martin-original-plan.html Some of this sounds almost more interesting (and certainly less bloated) than we actually got...some of it I'm glad never actually happened.

Not gonna come with any theories just say that it's interesting which characters that where there from the start and what other characters has been branched out from them. There's also some stuff about who will survive in the end which I'm not gonna mention because that could definitely be a major spoiler.

Pete Martell February 23, 2015 Share February 23, 2015 (edited) Archie Comics released a one-issue homage to Game of Thrones, called...Game of Phones. Archie was Robb, Betty was Daenerys, Jughead was Jon ("Snowhead") Veronica was Cersei, Reggie was Joffrey, Moose was The Mountain, etc. etc. Of course this is Archie, and not their "adult" line either, so it was all tame and in good fun, but still, it's a cool little homage, and you could tell whoever did it really was a fan of the show, just through certain lines and some odd moments here and there (for instance, Mr. Lodge was as chilling as Tywin was in those first seasons). http://www.nerdspan.com/comic-review-archie-664-game-of-phones/ Edited February 23, 2015 by Pete Martell 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3352-game-of-thrones-in-the-media/page/4/#findComment-856364

ElizaD April 12, 2015 Share April 12, 2015 That is such a shame. I love spoilers, but reading review comments about specific storylines and analyzing every second of trailer footage is different from actual episodes being accessible weeks before they're aired. Part of the fun and frustration of GOT is having a week to discuss the episode and speculate about the future before we find out what happens next on the show. These were probably the four episodes sent to reviewers, so I doubt 5-10 will leak. Has any show ever had its season finale leak more than a week before it airs? The biggest leak I can remember is that Wolverine movie which ended up doing OK at the box office despite being bad.

The biggest leak I can remember is that Wolverine movie which ended up doing OK at the box office despite being bad. Movies get leaked a lot. You can find the critic screeners pretty easily for any movie that sends them out if you're so inclined. A lot of critics are unfortunately not very careful, usually the story is some lend them out to friends/family or the screener is "borrowed" by friends/family and ripped. It happens a lot less with TV shows cause most TV shows don't screen their episodes beyond maybe the season premiere. I'm guessing you are right that some critic was either less then careful with their copies or deliberately uploaded them, and the leaked episodes are the screeners sent out. The biggest leak I can remember (beyond this one) was actually a book, the 7th Harry Potter was leaked about a week ahead of it's release date IIRC. This is probably the easiest leak to pull off cause for a big release book stores get tonnes of copies in stock very early and books are rarely shrinkwrapped so it's easy for an employee to scan and upload them and be able to return the copy before anyone notices. I guess it doesn't happen very often cause few books carry as much hype as Harry Potter. Maybe the last ASOIAF will end up leaked as well though.

Avaleigh May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 That made me laugh, ElectricBoogaloo. The second video reminds me of when I watched the Red Wedding happen on the show for the first time. (I might have shared this back on TWoP.) Anyway, I was watching it with two Unsullied viewers and one friend who is a bookreader. One of the Unsullied viewers had started watching the show from the Blackwater on and he claimed that he was only watching because of his Unsullied girlfriend who is the sister of my bookwalker friend. This guy frequently reminded us that he didn't like fantasy, he thought certain things about the series were "stupid", he thought Robb was a fool for executing Karstark, etc. Fast forward to the Red Wedding and this guy has his mouth hanging open and then says to us all 'Oh shit, so they're like treacherous motherfuckers? *pause* But there's another episode, right?' This guy is still a viewer btw and he did eventually watch the earlier episodes he missed. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3352-game-of-thrones-in-the-media/page/4/#findComment-1184740
