[Westeros]

It’s now HBO Go! And boy, this is full of new material, that’s to say the least. 1:50 long, it contains new lines from the season, and new images—including our best look at Nonso Anozie as Xaro Xhoan Daxos, our very first look at a CGI Direwolf, our first scene featuring Qhorin Halfhand, a hot and heavy moment featuring the mysterious Jeyne, and a lot more.
Here’s a scene-by-scene breakdown of the clip. Spoilers ahoy:read on >>>

Direwolf looked good for what I could tell

What I really like about the show which enhances the books is that they are waaaay more direct.
Theres no off hand reference of Craster having sacrificed a baby to the white walkers, Jon will actually see it! Osha doesn't say fire and blood, she says Dragons! Very direct I like that.

I feel like I am really gonna like Robb Starks character this season.
Finally we get to see Stannis fucking talk.
Littlefinger story is also greatly enhanced.

All the added scenes look brilliant.

Commander Mormount: you want to lead one day? Then learn how to follow

It was awesome! It also elaborated on some the of the painfully quick glimpses we got in the last trailer, like that dude falling off the city wall. A shot of the comit and of Tyrion holding a glowing green orb of wildfire were also included.

[Ser Wun Wun]

That trailer was so damn epic, April 1st just can't get here fast enough!!!

[Fred Stark]

The trailer looks awesome...Am I the only one who thinks Osha had taken over the Reeds role....Maybe Meera will appearing next season I dont think we will be seing Jojen...and  I think we will get POV from Robb this season and I cant wait to see the Sandor and Sansa scene after the Blackwater Battle  as I'm curious to see how they are going to handle the scene to make it look pure and longing for love(from Sandor view) without making  the audience feeling uncomfortable as  Sophie Turner and Rory have a big age gap

I'm pretty sure the narration at the beginning is not Stephen Dillane. It sounds like Jeor Mormont and Varys to me.

[Jory]

I'm so tired of seeing the same shot of the spearmen dudes leaving the city, show me some more Davos ._.

Just noticed it, but there's a quick glimpse of Ghost in the back of the shot where Jon says he saw something. Kind of blurry but I think I saw an ear. : P

Can't wait to see more.

Definitely Jeor Mormont who says "The cold winds are rising". Think you may be right about Varys too. "The big fish eat the little fish" isn't a very Stannis-like phrase.

That's definitely Varys saying "the big fish eat the little fish". I remember it from the books. "The storms come and go, the big fish eat the little fish, and I keep on paddling." It's one of my favourite lines.

My only problem is that: how is Dany aware of the situation in Westeros, how did the news reach her ?

Yeah, I don't like that.
In the books, GRRM often cheats with teleportation, but this is far worse.

[Arkash]

Well, maybe a ship in Qarth has brought news, if so, I hope we'll see a scene with like Jorah questionning the sailors!

[ServantOnIce]

There are things that they seem to have advanced in the story and I don't think we will see the Reeds at all. When Catelyn tells Robb about "Jeyne" that is in Storm of Swords clear as day . .  it seems they will be moving fast with this series because of costs.

Also, I do like they have adapted things for television. TV series are different for books.

Easy, she is in a trade city, THEE trade city on Martin's planet . . and news goes fast  . . the contention for the Throne in Westeros will have and is having in the books a global impact . . as contentions in Europe have for centuries.

I have the feeling that the rest of the world doesnt really care about Westerosis and sees them as retarded and archaic people, the arrogants Qarth, Astapor, Yunkaï, Mereen, Asshaï, Yi-Ti.. do not seem to really have great consideration for Westeros, but I may be wrong.

Beautiful trailer.... but I am worried about 2 things, we see Osha with Bran and Hodor.... no Reeds of course, but also no Rickon?? waiting to see what's upt with this story arc.....

and I do hope that those boats aren't the fleet in the Blackwater Bay.... of course, a lot of people could die and burn in small boats as well.... but what would be the point of Davos as a captain??? And of course, we would lose from the genius of Tyrion and his huge chain. Also I hope they don't cut the death of his 4 sons. We don't need to see it, just that it happens, it is very important for the story of Davos.

Don't worry, there is going to be Rickon because the actor that plays him has said that he's shooting season 2 .
