What elements of CoKs will the TV show not do?

[Book Spoiler](/b "your text")
SPOILER for BOOK TWO : CLASH OF KINGS

Lets talk a little bit about some of the things that happen in Book two that HBO will just not do.

Here's a quick run down on elements to characters or plot that I think the HBOtv show will NOT cover:

1. At the end of book 2, Tyrion gets seriously jacked up, burned and loses a nose. I doubt HBO will have their lead character disfigured in in serious make-up all the time. I predict a small limp and cane, that will be it.

2. The Hound and Sansa. I doubt we will see on the show the last scene of the Hound, drunk at Sansa's chambers asking for that song and kiss.

3. Will we see Theon kill those farmer's kids that everyone thought were Bran and Rickton? Heads with tar on the pikes... if they were adults , maybe, but kids? I doubt it.

4. Will we see the Goat chopping feet and makeing stumps? This one we actually might see, not sure, there seems to be tons in Harrenhall that I bet will need to get cut down.


What do you think?

Green Lantern Review

Green Lantern. Let me start off by saying that I have been reading comics since I was about 8 or so, and Green Lantern next to Batman has been my favorite from DC Comics, so of course I’m going into this movie with some hope that I will be entertained. I went with my wife, who knows nothing of Green Lantern (although she did attend the Green Lantern cartoon panel at Comic-Con this year, so that she could get in the Falling Skies panel). I’ve heard some press and disappointment at the box office, but I have stayed away from many of the trailers and not listened to any reviews from TRS, /Filmcast or the like.
I’ll start off by saying that we saw the 3-D version, it’s playing at the cheap $3 theater (hey I’m too cheap to pay $12) and while I’ve heard about the screen being too dark in 3-D movies I haven’t experienced it when I saw Up or Caroline, I did with this. It was just dark enough that I was wishing we saw it in 2D, in fact the 3D was almost non-existent. There literally was more 3D in the Captain America trailer than this (which I realized how much I missed after watching it, due to me falling asleep the time we saw it in the theater…. yes I’m a biscuit, but it was a long day and a late show and I fell asleep)
As for the movie, I liked it. Again I haven’t read the press, but I felt it was actually maybe a little better than Thor. I definitely liked X-Men First Class better, but I thought that Green Lantern was good. Reynolds was good, I thought he matched the character of Hal, fit the part, both physically and had the charisma that I expect for a movie like this. Lively was fine, she didn’t have too much to work with, but I enjoyed her as well… if the talent hits their mark and doesn’t distract from the movie, that’s good enough in most cases. I thought the plot was good, but I’ll get more into that in a bit.
Biscuit-nerd time: Okay, now I’ll throw a few things out there that I felt were a little weak. Kilawog was a little disappointing… I know you people love to hear Michael Clarke Duncan (I still havne’t forgiven him for taking the role of Kingpin) but just making him a drill sergeant, didn’t do it for me. Kilawog has a heart, but maybe there was no time for that in this story, and I can accept that. Despite my history with the comics, I didn’t have much exposure to Hector Hammond. I thought the arc and acting was good, but didn’t know the character well enough for me to be that invested. Parallax was interesting, I liked the design, thought all that was fine, would have probably liked more of a sci-fi adventure off Earth better, but that might be a better movie #2. Loved the Sinestro stuff, and wouldn’t it be fun if in movie #3 Hal becomes Parallax and destroys Coast City?
Good movie. Liked it. Three Biscuits. Go check it out and tell me what you think!
