Pod The Impaler Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Apparently one of the locations they're using has a lot of geothermal activity. Maybe we'll be seeing the Valley of Thenn early into the season as an introduction to the Magnar?Wait and see if they have to show Hardhome one day, then there's the perfect location for it. ("What's Hardhome" you ask? Oh .... nothing. Book spoilers, that's all.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
go joff go Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 If Sophie and Aidan are doing exterior filming then it seems like they probably are keeping the portion of that story set at the Fingers. I was half-expecting them to just set the whole thing at the Eyrie, which would have annoyed me, because seeing the Fingers tells you a lot about Baelish, and he has a ton of great lines in that chapter. Yeah I was really expecting them to skip the fingers too. Makes you wonder how much Lysa we are actually going to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Green Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Sansa has two post-escape chapters. While some of this hinges on how they choose to pace the season, I tend to think that the first one will probably be three episodes: (1) shipboard conversation about her new identity and the details of Littlefinger's plan, etc., (2) arriving at the Fingers, and (3) Lysa arrives and the wedding.Sansa's last chapter will all be covered in one episode, I expect. I think they would include an "arrival at the Eyrie/meeting Robin" scene or two before that, stuff we didn't actually see in the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Luke. Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I guess they'll cut most of Brienne's storyline so that she meets the BWB right away. I bet on the Lady Stoneheart reveal in the finale.Me too, except instead of Brienne seeing her, I think Black Walder could take the role of Merrett for the "epilogue" of Season 4.

Ser Luke. Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I think Black Walder might have a bigger role to play in the future.Yeah, I think the show would use Lothar as their "Merrett" for the end of Season 4, as he's been established as well.

Mordos_Kull Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I'm hoping we see a bit more of Walder Frey, just to piss people off that he's alive and well. Him and Roose could have regular chats about how great they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyella Targaryen Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 There's rumours about Joseph Mawle in Reykjavik in the facebook of https://www.facebook.com/PetyrBaelishLittlefinger. Now, he seems to do know a bit what he's talking about since he's been giving casting clues without spoiling anything..but it could be just Joseph visiting the set or so, because there won't be flashbacks.

Colonel Green Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Yeah, I think the show would use Lothar as their "Merrett" for the end of Season 4, as he's been established as well.I don't really think it's important that the hanging victim be "established". The Freys all look pretty much identical on the show, Black Walder and Lothar had like three-four lines each, and neither of their names were ever spoken aloud. Just cast a guy with a weaselly look, give him one of those stupid hats, and the audience will know about as much about Merrett Frey as they know about either of the junior Freys we've already seen.

That guy seems to have good info about the show (though not sure who are his sources), but I'll reserve my doubts about that postYeah, that was my thought too (visiting the set) yet there's a small super tiny chance for Josepth to return as Benjen (or like that theory says, CH) since it is weird to be visting the set in Iceland. If it was in Ireland I would think he was visiting for real.I guess we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

go joff go Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 David Bradley has said he is back filming for season 4. Where did he say that? The only thing I saw was him give a cryptic answer at comic con which in no way confirmed that he was in season 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newstar Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Sophie Turner just tweeted a (presumably recent) picture of her and Sibel Kekilli in a club or restaurant. So I guess Sibel Kekilli's in Iceland, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkie Baelish Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 The whole cast seems to be in Iceland. I don't think they're changing the storylines too much, it could just be that they decided to film it in Iceland, given that it's autumn in Westeros right now. I wonder how they'll film the KL scenes though. Are there any buildings similar to the ones in Croatia that they could use?David Bradley has said he is back filming for season 4.Do you have a source for this? He's so easily detestable in the role. That scene with Walder and Roose was pure gold, and I want MOAR. As for the surrogate for Merrett Frey, Lothar would probably be my guess. He's already recognizable given that he killed Talisa, and thus gives LS even more reason to hang him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I'm sure there are areas in Iceland that could serve as fields and meadows outside of KL. Maybe the far side of the Blackwater and the Kingswood. We know Sansa goes hawking and riding with Margaery in the novels, so an excursion on the show isn't out of the question as a change of venue.

Padraig Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 hi i am a new game of thrones fan but i only read the book, and i was wondering if anyone can tell me how the show compares to the book?Given this board was set up by lovers of the books, I imagine most people will say that the books are much better. :) Different to a degree but faithful compared to most adaptations.

So I guess Sibel Kekilli's in Iceland, too?Probably. We know Tyrion was there earlier, so they must be doing some King's Landing filming in Iceland.I honestly don't get why. You would think it would be easier to do that in Croatia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how one does hawking from foot, not that it wasn't done or could be done, but sure spoils a poetic image! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
