Of course he's splitting the book into two, wasn't it originally going to be a trilogy? Now it's a multi-mega-olgy!

Awesome marketing. Any of you who live in the target cities should follow the Game of Thrones on Twitter to find out where the food truck will be.

Did anyone see the 15 minute preview before Mildred Pierce Sunday? It was crazy, yo. Beautifully shot and bloody as hell.

The Iron Throne was pretty damn cool. I was so surprised to see that the Throne would be in NYC the same time I was, god bless Twitter.

They had another promo going, which was perfect for NYC.

I give you, "The Game of Rickshaws"

I guess this story isn't for everyone!

Quote:
The true perversion, though, is the sense you get that all of this illicitness has been tossed in as a little something for the ladies, out of a justifiable fear, perhaps, that no woman alive would watch otherwise. While I do not doubt that there are women in the world who read books like Mr. Martin’s, I can honestly say that I have never met a single woman who has stood up in indignation at her book club and refused to read the latest from Lorrie Moore unless everyone agreed to “The Hobbit” first. “Game of Thrones” is boy fiction patronizingly turned out to reach the population’s other half.
So, I guess the media's meta-narrative for this month is that we're turning our boys gay and making our girls into manlies.

With thanks to @feliciaday from the tweeterverse for the story.
