I've heard an important character will get killed next season.

I think you were making a joke, but not sure. I'm trying to remember if an "important" character dies, other than the ones who have already died. I guess it depends on your definition of important. I guess it also depends on your definition of "dies", but the character I am referring to won't get to that point in his story until at least the following season, I wouldn't think.Originally posted by Adverpoke:

Sorry.Originally posted by Adverpoke:
It was a joke, but you are certainly doing your best to throw a wet blanket on it.

Posted from Rivals MobileYeah, that was tough to watch. Tough to read also. I think Ned's execution was a bit more shocking/difficult, but the 2 events are pretty close.
I agree. I was more upset about the Ned beheading. Haven't read the books yet, don't know if it would be worth it since I've already watched the shows.Originally posted by Been Jammin:

If you like to read, I would recommend it. The books are so much better than the show, IMO. There are also quite a few differences that you will find interesting.Originally posted by duke-of-earl:

On the other hand, I love to read, but I think the show is better than the books. In my opinion, the show is the intelligent, merciless editor that GRRM needs.Originally posted by Been Jammin:

Don't think the second wedding is available until February 17. Unless it's still on someone's dvr.Originally posted by cowboyclint25:

I agree with your points, but wanted to add something to the discussion.Originally posted by TheRedSon:
Ned loses his head vs Red Wedding
The thing is, if you're getting to it in the books first, Robb hasn't ever been a the central character in a chapter. We never see the world from his perspective, and other than Rickon he's the only Stark child that's true for. Ned, on the other hand, appeared to be the series' main character right up until the moment he died.
I can totally see that.Originally posted by Air_Thurman:
I read the books after the show. My take as someone who saw these events on TV first:
The Red Wedding impacted me a lot more. The Ned stuff was like okay ... this series is crazy anything goes. The Red Wedding was almost soul crushing and made me realize Martin was there to crush dreams, souls and any optimism. After the Red Wedding episode I literally just starred at the TV for like 5 minutes and wondered if I even wanted to continue with the series.
I'm just optimistically speculating. Here is my line of thinking.Originally posted by TheRedSon:
He might be close to finishing it. Then again, how long was he "close" to finishing DWD? Three years? Four years?
