Re: OT: Recent Movies You've Seen
Yeah, the opener was a pretty lacking in action and plot advancement. But like worm mentioned, they had to introduce some new characters and that took up a bunch of time.
Also, for anyone who can't wait, Episode two has already leaked online. Go check your favourite torrent site, and you'll be able to find it.

Love how the second book (and I assume season) is all about the imp. Love him.
Davos looks different than I pictured him...but not a huge deal.

Yeah, Davos isn't at all like I picture him either. And Melisandre's good, though I pictured someone older.
Then of course, the other thing is that for whatever reason, Renly in the TV series is completely different than how he's described in the books.

It is pretty long, but extremely well-written and actually quite a page-turner.

Waiting for episode one to stream. Once I finish the eight parts of the mini-series I'll move on to GOT.

In the books, in physical appearance he's described as a (younger and not fat) carbon copy of his older brother Robert. He's also described as having a similar personality (outgoing, charismatic, a people person). In the TV show, he's sort of depicted as a nervous, whimpering little twig boy being led by his lover.

I've really been looking forward to watching the next episode of Sherlock all day but now that I see everyone says 5 is the worst I'm a little bummed. However, even a bad episode is pretty good. Episode 2 was weak in comparison but still very good.
