The trailer seems to feature both Davos and Tyrion as central to its narrative so you could both be right.

Tyrion is the star of the show and the book.  It would be a shame if they changed direction. Davos is an interesting side character.

Oh I'm sure of that. But I can also see how Ned being the first season's "good guy", Davos is going to be that in the second season.

Tyrion is GRRM's Mary Sue and on the show it stays that way since Dinklage is an awesome actor.

When I heard that they were casting Dinklage as Tyrion that was the moment that I knew this would happen and it would be awesome.

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.

I wish you would learn what words meant.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Where's the real Game of Thrones thread?
I can't find it.

Right.

So....good season so far. Enjoying it. Except for all that homo stuff.

In the 4th season, I wonder how they're going to handle Tyrion being revealed as a secret Targaryan and marrying Daenerys. How do you explain that only he's small enough to ride the juvenile dragons to Westeros without it coming off as a joke? I'm also looking forward to more hints that Varys is working with the White Walkers.

That's so fifth season. Next season will be the big wedding between Danaerys and Jaime Lannister.
