Here's Cersie.  Lena Headey from that Terminator tv show, which I've never seen.

From looking at her pics on GIS they're going to have to give her implants.

She hasn't really played any sultry, childish, femme fatales.

Quote from: Berkut on August 26, 2009, 10:24:15 AMI don't know either actress (they are both very young of course) but I certainly think tehy both *look* their parts very well. Especially Sansa.

Isn't she supposed to be a redhead?

Auburn, so brownish-red.

But yeah, I agree with Berkut. They look perfect for their roles. Now the only question is, can they act passably?

Who's playing Ned?

Sean Bean

A perfect role for him - getting killed off in the first book. :D

I suppose there will be one season per year.

So what happens when the TV series catches up with the books?  :lol:

The author will be dead by then... So they'll start on Robert Jordan.

They have material for 4 seasons, and given HBO's track record with high budgeted series (Rome, Deadwood), they'll pull the plug after 2 or 3.

Stunning looking actress playing Cersei. She would seem to look the part, as long as she can act it out as ruthlessly and coolly as Cersei did, or tried to do before things she got caught in her own web. Still waiting for the next book to see what happens to her, one of the most powerful women locked away in a religious order's cells, an order that she helped to become powerful again, so they could unwittingly serve her own ends.

I was watching Harry Potter last night - me and the wife watched the first 5 movies all in a row, since we had never seen them before.

The casting in that is largely terrible. Harry is fine, Hermione is actually quite good. Snape is good. Other than that, they are mostly crap. The Weaselys are simply all annoying, especially the pretty boy twins. Black is utterly terrible. Dumbledore is barely passable, but does not come across as dangerous in any way. Moody is simply goofy, instead of scary.

Hagrid is quite good, he works well. Lucius Malfoy is quite good, but Draco is a twit.

Black is utterly terrible.

How do you feel he should be played?

I'm not disagreeing, I simply have no feel for the character. He's just there.

A little unbalanced, nutty, short tempered, impulsive, even a little cruel at times.

What is with the fascination for men with long, luxurious hair in those movies anyway?

It makes them look more like wizards.
