Confirm/deny? true, as for the German one, each volume was split in two - so there are basically 8 books: 1. translate book 2. split in two 3. profit don't even know where to put the "???" :-/ | ||

It's all business. If they showed it all at once, it'd be a lot less overall profit/marketing | ||

First Edition of the German Books was quite fine (except that bookstores are thinking we shit gold as a lannister so making two of one is ok :p) but in the newer Versions i have to agree unreadable when Jon Snow gets Hardtranslated into Jon Schnee :/ | ||

This is fairly common practice i guess, LotR books have Swedish/Norwegian names in translated versions, makes me always buy the english version. | ||

Plus, HBO has said time and again that they don't really base many of their decisions on ratings. HBO sells it's programming to overseas companies for foreign distribution. They said that episodes of the show are selling for about 2.5 million each, which was a major factor in ordering a second season. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + You fucking swine Baelish!!!! I am like Ned to be honest, I really didn't see that coming. I would make a shitty intrigue Lord! This show really is getting better :D. After episode 5, it really got back on course. Episode 6 was fucking awesome in every way and episode 7 has some great story elements :D. | ||
