Word on the street has it that Gwendoline Christie has been cast as Brienne.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I guess they can make her a lot homelier with makeup?

Cut her hair really short and muck her up and I think she'll fit.

She's 6'3", that's the important part.

Also, Asha's been renamed. <_<

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Already confirmed by Martin himself.

She's much cuter than Brienne, but that's a forgivable deviation.

More homelier? I think that's quite enough already.

Tell GRRM to stop naming everyone with the same sounding names.

:huh: GRRM's writing has many faults, but similar-sounding character names are not one of them.

They should have renamed Osha instead. Naming her after the rebranded fertilizer business of Norsk Hydro annoys me
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Osha, Asha. The Roberts, atleast one's dead now.

Ok, you are right. It's not that of an issue.

So?  They renamed John Arryn's son but it really made no difference.  I am just glad Asha/Yara is being cast at all considering her limited role in books 2 and 3.

I know the women of Quebec are all stunning beauties and sexpots but where I come from she would be a five not a one.

Wait, homelier = 1?  Guess I misunderstanding the meaning of the term. I think she's pretty cute & she has a girl next door look. Which is what I thought homely look meant.
